TT WOULD appear that official
L Washington has more than one
idea as to the proper size Of the
American army. Anyway, the small
army men in the house, combining
with the Democrats, Outgeneraled the
Republican leaders and succeeded in
amending the army bill so as to fix
the size of the army at 10000. This
was done despite the request of Secre-
tary Weeks that the armys size should
not be reduced below 175,0O0.
The house adjourned without pass
ing the bin after prolonged debate
during which the Republican leaders
pleaded for good-sized army because
of the disturbed world conditions.
The bill provided for an army of

Twice I'm his later years did william
Makepeace Thackeray seek temporarily
another career than that of authorship.
Shortly before writing "The Virgin
tans" he tried unsuccessfuIly to cap
ture n seat I'm parliament. Politics had
always attracted him, although his
temperament was wholly unsuited to
popular demands.
He was a radical. sympathizinK with
Richard Golden in his anti-cOrn law
fight. 81 would like 90 see all men
equal" he wrote In 1910. "and this
bIosted aristOcracy blasted TO the wings
of all Winds" He was nevertheless
absolutely opposed to any attempt on
the part OF the people to win their
rights by force. His attitude L. i'm
teresting in the light of today's radi-
calfsm, AS IN also his firm advocacy of
Ireland's right 10 have home rule.
After finishing aThe virginians,"
Thackeray became the first editor of
the Cornhill Magazine. His own wide
popularity practically insured the
initial success of the venture. OF the
first number 100000 copies were sold.
The most distinguished writer's of the
day were attracted as contributors
through the editors prestige, and the
CornhiII furnished magazine readers
with better fiction and articles than
can be found today I'm any successful
English periodical.
Although Thackeray was n good
editor In many ways, he was handi-
capped by too tender n heart. He could
not refuse poems ana articles, however
unfnspfred and even maudlin, IL the
writer's needed money. So n few mon tbs
later he gladly resigned his position
and returned to novel writing.

of Ho1ner Hitter
Mrs. Ruth Doesn't Think Any.
thing Impossible for
Her Husband.

New York, Sept. %. - Mrs.
Babe Ruth has edited the dictionary.
She has scratched out the word i'm
possible" She considers the word
quite unnecessary as far as her
bulky husband is concerned.
Wherefore It was absolute conf
dence, not alone hope and optimism,
that shone in her eyes when she
said
Il think George ought to make a
homo run in every game of the
world series"
That is Mrs. Ruth's ambition. You
bet she thinks Babe can do it!
Did YOU notice the name? No.
the hOme-run champs wife doesn't
call him Babe To her he's George.
Mrs Ruth is as little as Babe is
big. She has a small, rounded fig
ure. auburn hair that is short and
curly, large eyes of a deep violet
and a happy voice.
Happy? Well, what woman
wouldn't be? Millions Of eyes TO-
cused on her husband. raging hon.
age TO his prowess. And women in
unprecedented numbers going to
baseball games-even though many
know nothing about seball-just
to see the famous Babe bat out a
home run.
"Jealous?" Mrs. Ruth laughed,
"Of course I'm not watch the wO-
men staring at George and smiling
at him-and 1 think how lucky 1
am.
They come to see me too? Well.
maybe some do. Yes, I do see
many looks directed my way. And
1 suppose women do comment.
Sometimes they have picked out the
wrong One-and 1 have lots Of fun
listening"
Mrs Ruth smiled. No, she
wouldn't tell what she had heard.
But apparently it wasn't distressing.
The Bambino's wife goes to every
game the Yankees play in New York.

'DEPAUW MYSTERY
TEAM TO SPRING
GREAT SURPRISE
Fred Walker Refuses to Wait
Confident He Can Defeat
\. ID. This Year.

Old Man Curiosity has been so
busy around these parts lately. Great
ing interest in the De Pauw-Notre
Dame battle on Saturday, that a
crowd Of people at Cartier Field on
that occasion promises TO break all
records for early season attendance
The old boy calls attention TO the
following facts:
First, De Pauw has virtually a
mystery team. Since the middle Of
August when the squad went into
training at Culver, it has been prac-
Using in absolute secrecy. Not a man
outside Of the regular training staff
has seen the team work out. News
paper OrrespOndents-ay, even the
president Of the university himself,
had been barred admittance TO the
athletic field. Every knothole in the
fence has been blocked, and the
game whic- was originally scheduled
with a small team for last Saturday
was cancelled to prevent enemy
scouts from gaining a glimpse of the
mystery team" in action.
Fred Walker Coaching.
Second, the squad is coached by
the mysterious Fred Walker him
self. Some years ago, Walker was
famous upon the Pacific coast as
the Masked Fighter" other de-
tails in his career include playing
football and coaching at the Uni
versity Of Chicago and pitching base
ball in the big leagues.
Third. a mass meeting last spring
when hopes were expressed that in
/ the course of five years De Pauw
4 might be able to whip Notre Dame,
/ Walker jumped to his feet and said,
/ why wait five years, when we can
lick them next Ill" The informant
tells US that the cheering which en-
sued carried the roof away from the
4 hall.
| A large contingent of Black and
/ Gold rooters will follow the team
| to Notre Dame Two hundred and
! fifty tickets have been sent from
here to Greencastle. A delegation
of alumni is also expected from In
dianapolis.
/ -hCduW illlt the NOlIe DdIle squad
has not been loafing. For two hours
and half Monday afternoon, Coach
| Rockne sent his blue jerseyed fight
ens through a rapid signal drill
working out faults which he dis
covered in the battle with Kala-
mazoo last week. Paul Cashier the
big fullback who was not in proper
condition to play against Kazoo is
coming around in fine shape and will
enter the game next Saturday.
Barry Holton's freshmen had an
other fast workout today in prepar-
alton for a game with the Western
State Normal at Kalamazoo on Oct
| Z. The freshmen schedule includes
also a game with Lake Forest al
Lake Forest on Oct. IA, a game with
! Culver at Culver, Nov. 5, and a
game with the Michigan Aggie fresh
men at Lansing. Oct. IS. a game

She always sits in box Sc. at the left
corner behind the Yankees dugout.
Sitting there she can see Babe as
he ambles in after smashing out a
home run and he acknowledges her
smile of praise along with the
plaudits of'the crowd.
Gorge has been in three world
series before" Mrs. Ruth said.
These were in Boston before he
began his home-run career. But
this will be the greatest world series

game. Wouldn't it be splendid?
But George will never do tor
try to do it-just for personal hon
ors He wants the team TO win. If
bunt is better strategy, he will
bunt. And everybody knows that
he can bupt. The very day he made
his fifty-fifth home run he beat out
hunt. George wants TO win home
run laurels and batting laurels-
but the good of the team comes
first"
Mrs. Ruth is sad about just one
thing She did not see Babe smash
out that fifty-ffth home run Sept,

1920 record.

to travel with the team. For the
past two years, since they have been
established in their own apartment
here, she only attends the games in
New York.
The Ruths have been married for
eight years. They live in a six-room
apartment-with even a private din
ing room-in the Ansonia hotel. Mrs.
Ruth likes baseball first of all, then
music. She spends hours at the pi-
ano.

whose bonuses for extra home runs
