Mixture Of MANY LANGUAGES.

Modern English is a composite OF
Latin and the language of the ancient
Britons who were conquered by the
navian words introduced by the Danes
when they conquered England, Ger
man words brought by the Saxons,
and Frerch words brought by the
Normans. There is scarcely a language
that has not contributed something
to modern English, but those mention
ed have been the largest contributors.
Many technical words have been taken
from the Greek.

Source Of Happiness.

The world contains not one single
object that might not be a source OF
happiness. Sorrow springs from this,
that man outdoes himself in misusing
everything. He turns against his own
body or his own spirit all sorts or
things that seem well made for his
joy.-Georges Duhamel in the Century
Magazine.

Negotiations for Post-season
Clash Dec. 4 Nearly
Completed.

Georgetown will bring to a close
its football season in a game with
Bethany College of West Virginia at
the American League Park on De-
cember 4. according to present in
dications. Efforts to arrange a post
season game as feature of the
semicentennial celebration of the
Georgetown Law School have re-
suited in negotiations with the fast
West Virgipians, which practically
assure their acceptance.
Though Bethany cannot claim the
rating of some of the other teams
asked to accept the date. It should
put up a great fight with the Hill
toppers.
Not only did 1t win popularity in
its recent game with George Wash
ington, in which 1t showed a fast
and versatile attack. but 1t proved
its merit by defeating the University
of Detroit earlier In the season.
Detroit took the number Of the Hill
toppers last year and Is one OF the
strongest elevens in the Middle
West.
A definite agreement with Beth
any is expected to be reached today,
according to Georgetown officials.

CELLAR CHAMPS IN TIE;
TITLE GAME ON TODAY
Eastern and Stenographers
Unable.to Score in Well
Played Game.

ITS going to be a ,cng, hard
winter but well all stick together
painted twenty-five players repre-.
senting Eastern and Business at the
conclusion Of gridiron battle yes.
terday In which neither scored and
the pair sank together to the cellar
of the city loop, planning revenge
for another season.
With chance for the only victory
in the District league looming be-
fore both teams yesterday. neither
could come out OF, the trance of hope
and make good tho opportunity
However, the spirit OF fellowship
which the score might indicate as
prevailing was nhpticed during the
game.
Eastern, because of it's great
showing against Tech and Central,
entered the battle the favorite. But
IL failed to figure the work of Coach
Michael Kelley during the last three
weeks and Business was not out OF
the fight at any time. 1t well de-
served tie for its tight although
Eastern was the aggressor almost
throughout.
Led by Prender, Coach Guyon's
men quickly gained the advantage
in the first quarter and after an
exchange of punts worked the ball
to Businesses l5-yard line, where
it was showed back on downs. This
same defense was put up by the
Stenographers on every threatening
attack Of the Capitol Hill aggrega-
ton.
Eastern ploughed through rather
consistently for first downs in mid
field, but near Business's goal line
1t was unable to negotiate. Fant.
Ferber and Maine were throwing
runners for losses on line plays
when near its goal. while fumbles
and intercepted passes saved defeat
on other occasions.
Business failed to get within
scoring distance during the last
half. but intercepted passes by Pc
terson and Somerville, followed by
long returns, turned the tide. Prem
der and Myers pulled off some spec
tacular runs, but could not get past
the last man. Both teams acquitted
themselves well, and in spite OF
their standing in the City League
showed Washington fans what fight
and spirit could do.
The lineup and summary:
