No feature of our export trade

A person who studies mankind
 from the standpoint of the physician,
 tician gets different viewpoint. . The book which Barre wrote, en- titled "The Little Minister, well
 illustrates an element in human na-
 ture which comes to the surface whenever a law is made which says, | Thou shalt not" according to the
 book village in Scotland which for
 many generations had lived in peace and harmony finally decided that they
 must put on city airs and have a peace officer. A sort of policeman or constable and so they appointed a very popular fellow. A man who was a good neighbor and with whom all liked to have a friendly chat. Up to that time no one had, any desire to transgress the law in the slightest degree, but as soon as the policeman his former friends and neighbors re- fused to talk to him or to obey the laws which they themselves had made. The poor fellow surely had his troubles from that time on and until the law of love takes the place of the law of Thou shalt not' he and
 his decendants will continue to have trouble.
 I hear of many homes in which not drop of alcoholic beverage was to
 be found at any time prior to the enactment of the prohibition laws and those people did not use liquors in any way or at any time put followin g the panicky lead of habitua1 users they stored abundant stocks of wines
 and liquors for future, so-ca1led emer- ] gencies.
 In other cases where people have never made wine or beer or any other fermented liquor they now take great pride in serving to their friends abundant samples of home brew and
 wines.
 I remember well the difficulty ex- perienced by a certain company in ! disposing of a lot of 10-gaIlon oak kegs, in which they received certain extracts. Occasionally farmer { would buy one or two for vinegar
 making but 25 cents was all he would | pay. Now the same firm have ad- ! vance orders for all such kegs at $1.00 and even $1.50 each and I was given ' to understand they were used for
 making wines and other alcoholic ! liquors.

MYSTERY Wells
CORNELL ELEVEN
Coach Dobie Has Kept His
Plans and Players Under
Cover to Date

Ithaca, n. Y, Oct. 1.-The mystery
enveloping the identity of the men who
will represent Cornell on the gridiron
this fall may be partially cleared up
tomorrow when q Cornell eleven will
take the field for the opening game Of
the season with University Of Rochester
as their opponents.
Coach Gilmour Dobie, who seems to
have succeeded in keeping not only the
public, but the football squad as well +,
in a state Of uncertainty. II not sus-
pense. as to prospects and personnel of
the varsity team since practice started
September 10, is expected to disclose q
few cards of his hand in the opening
engagement, although nobody expects
the team that faces the up state eleven
to be much more than nucleus Of the
team that will play Colgate here on
October %. or Dartmouth at the Polo
Grounds, New York, November 9; Co.
lnmbia at Ithaca, November 18; or
Pennsylvania in the annual Thanks
living game at Franklin Field.
The new Cornell coach. who has be-
come a sort Of man Of mystery to the
undergraduate body, has talked little
about the outlook. and what he has
said has been c6uchcd in language that
may be termed conservative, IL not pes
siInistic.
1t Is no secret that the three weeks
preliminary practice has. been of the
most intense character, IN which the
entire squad has been thoroughly
grounded in football fundamentals.

ID1D you ever notice that a run OF hne
- luck Is often followed by the rough
est fortune you have ever known?
Or that a spell fine weather only
too often leads to a period Of storms,
simoons and tornadoes?
Did you ever notice, in brief, how
life's little compensations even up the
gamep
A Noted Example
LNROM the 18th Of April to the 10Th
L of September baseball had known
the greatest season of Its record.
The two leagues both had wonderful
races to lure out the crowd, and one
league had the home run king Of all
times to help pack 'em in between st.
Louis and Boston.
Attendance records at almost every
park had been doubled or at least
greatly increased.
And then, with only ten days to 20
and not cloud In the sky-the worst
scandal that ever broke above any
American sport suddenly burst its way
into print. ..
This scandal has come as terrific
blow at the game-delivered just at
the moment when baseball as an at
traction was at the top point Of the
highest peak Of popularity.
A New Angle
TNHROUGH this scandal new angle
l. was introduced into the scheme OF
things. In the American League Cleve-
land and Chicago started the final week
practically tied for first place.
The thought in each baseball mind
last Monday was this: "Suppose Chi
cago wins?"
For this Chicago team happens TO be
the storm center of the scandal refer
red to.
1t was openly charged all through
the last world series that the White Sox
had sold out to crooked betting ring
not all the White Sox but at least five
or six---most Of them still with the club.
The series certainly had a phoney
| look, and q sufficient amount of evil
dence has since been spilled to show
that the phoney look was justified. And
yet here were many Of these same play
ers--branded through public gossip as
crooks-battling for another flag.
A Queer Turn
TT HAS been generally understood by
i most baseball men that the Chicago
club--when on the up and up and out to
win-stands as the strongest team IN
baseball today.
In its two main series against it's two
main rivals-Now York and Cleveland
