THE GAME
M EDMUND VANCE COOK

Some people tennis and some people bowl,
Some people putt pill into a hole,
Some people try to make three deuces do,
Some crave yacht with a captain and crew.
But best game of all have cognizance Of
Is making a living for some one you love.
Summon your knowledge and summon your nerve
Summon your willingness some way TO serve
Then for the dash and the daring to win,
Then for the lesson to lose with grin,
The gamble and scramble the shock and the shove,
Making a living for some one you love-
What do we ask OF you gods of the gamer
Not revels nor riches, not laurel and fame,
Not sport OF the tiger, nor ease Of the sloth,
Not scepter and bauble, nor mitre and CLOTH
Not guile OF the serpent, peace OF the dove,
But making a living for those whom we love.

CAN'T BUILD HEALTH BOYS WHILE KIDS ARE TAXED TO PLAY
 RN, s-PFTF." CARNEY

When this country is trying to build up the young and fill them with good rich American blood. the war tax on sporting goods used by the small chill dreu seems ridiculous. Our boys are deprived of much healthful recreation because Of this tax.
 The lawmakers who framed this rule must have forgot entirely that hey were ever boys. pr they haven | the least interest in the physical well fare of the men of the future.
 TO think that sporting goods should be taxed ten per cent. when jewelry and other articles that are absolute luXuries should get away with one- half of this tax. shows discrimination, could go on at length telling of the bad features Of this tax on sporting goods. but the more 1 think of it the more convinced l am that this ons branch of our activities. SO essential ic our Government, is not receiving the attention 1t deserves from our Rep resentatives in Congress"
 That is the way Julian T. Fitzgerald President of the Western Skating As sociation. feels about it, and it is oui firm belief that practically every ons interested in sports feels that the law. makers committed blunder when the, imposed war tax on sport goods. es. pecially when they taxed everything

that a sportsman uses two and thre9 times more than any thing else in thei so-called luxury line. This is the rea- son there is SO much agitation for 1bei repeal of the tax at this time: that ts1 the reason that practically every Ma tional Amateur organization is making fight on this tax and why every Con- gressman is being flooded with letters. Frank Bradsby, of Louisville. .Ky-l i who was chairman of the War Serv1ce Committee representing the Sporting Goods Manufacturers during the war. and who supplied the United Statss Government with all sporting equip- ment at actual cost, in- a letter to the writer says:
 The Government. through the War College. is anxious 10 encourage phyEi- cal education SO as to make the boys of the United States superior to tboesl Of the rest of the world, but we win not be able to help the War -College very much until the tax, on sporung ] goods is repealed" So if you desire the boys of Am>sica to grow up healthy. wish the future

aAFTVILLE TROLLEY LEAGUE CHAMPS

1Taftvilie took i've straight games from Moosup, Monday night, on the Jewett City alleys, thereby winning the Trolley league championship after two roll-of series Both strings were won by wide margin. As Taftville won the first two games the third was not nec- essary Raymond rolled the high hon ors Moosup by losing goes into second place, while third place goes to the Pal ace.
 Much to the surprise of the large crowd of bowling fans from Moosup, Taftville and Norwich, who went to the little hamlet of Jewett City to see the championship match they were greeted by large sign which notified them that they were expected to pay 25 cents for the privilege of witnessing the match The sign and the meaning it conveyed aroused the ire of the crowd who in scathing tones denounced all connected with the match and hatly refused to pay the fee.
 The Moosup team seeing that they were going to lose the moral support of their leather lunged rooters, refused to play. The Tatrville team then declared now or never ultimatum and firmly refused any arbitrary settlement. Fred Dugas, shining light of the Taftville az gregation, to help matters along deliv- cred lengthy discourse on the "piker- fshness" of the crowd. The crowd. as Is the custom of all crowds, resented the soul stirring words of MT. Dugas and sat down to await developments.
 It was a case of mo crowd, no game" 30 the offending placard was removed. This was not productive of harmony 50 James Dooley in soothing tones appealed to the craftsmanship of the crowd and his talk got them started but only for a short time for someone in the crowd de- Hsandde that Dugas should apologize. Mir. Dugas was equal to the occasion and ! went out to spread the oil upon the trou- | bled waters and in a graceful manner | retracted his statements about pikers. | Even then the crowd was ioath to attend | the game until Tom Sncox told the crowd in plain old fashioned English | that Dugas was a better sport than any
 of them. This seemed to settle the mat
