Hancock county trappers who
have been holding skins for better
offers were not good students of
market conditions, and are now
realizing their mistake. With
prices of manufactured furs 35 to 40
per cent. lower than replacement
cost it was inevitable that the bot
tom must soon drop out of the raw
skin market. And it has dropped.
Last week prices declined 20 to rs
per cent, and buyers predict a
further decline. We have heard of
one Hancock county trapper who has
a bunch of thirty mink skins. Two
weeks ago they would have Melted
him about SIS apiece-$450; to-
day he would be lucky to get $3.50.

FOOTBALL AND
ENDURANCE.

A squad of football candidates was
observed practising on n field the 9th
er day. They were told by the coach
to allow themselves TO fall from a GER
tain position without making any ef-
fort TO save themselves. The coach
evidently felt they needed a certain
course OF toughening. Anxious moth
ers probably lamented over bruised
knees and elbows when they got home,
and perhaps some boys would be with
drawn from the squad by cautious par
ents.
Ouch exercises In rough and tumble
have value provided they are directed
by competent people. One can imagine
that an inexperienced coach might ask
them TO do some stunt that could cause
serious injury, But II the coach knew
HIS business and really understood how
far boys could safely go In such ex-
ercises, the experience of rough and
tumble should be n good thing.
The tendency OF modern life Is To do
velop softness. People ride In auto
mobiles instead Of walking, they work
indoors at light and easy tasks, few OF
them ever engage In anything that
calls for hard knocks.
Consequently the majority of people
become extremely sensitive to pain,
They make a fuss about having teeth
filled and similar Incidents and they
never seem to have developed any
quality OF endurance.
The fellow who goes OF the football
field to look at hard knocks
lightly, and he learns not TO draw back
so s%hrinkingly from the conflicts of
life and the hard things OF daily work,
Furthermore. the boy who can go
through all this melee and keen his
temper like n gentleman, has acquired
a poise and self control that should be
n wonderful stabilizer in times Of
stress.

EFFICIENCY IN BURNING

Uncle Sam is on the eve of putting

naught Maryland" She will have
cost FoRTY-TWo MILLION DOL
LARS from start TO finish, enough
money to build and equip 200 handsome
school houses In Oh state of Mary
land-each hansome and big enough
to house 1000 pupils.
The Maryland has eight 16-inch
guns, each of which cost $256,000. A
few shots-a dozen or so-puts such
IL gun In the scrap pile; burns up a
quarter OF a million dollars In a sort Of
off-hand manner.
But In addition, each shot costs
$4,000 for powder, metal, she'll mech
anism, etc. You couldn't shovel $40
bills into your furnace fast enough to
equal the Maryland's little trick OF
burning up money.
Then for upkeep each year the
Maryland Will cost $3.50. 000-three-
quarters of a million, not counting
salaries. The wage bill Is another
800, 900 a month--which amounts to
one million, two hundred thousand a
year. Thus, II will cost two million
dollars a year to keep the Maryland in

WHAT COLLEGE
EDUCATION DOES.

Many OF the multitude of young peo-
pie who are entering colleges this
fall, have a false notion of what the
higher education can do for them.
They have the mistaken idea that a
college graduate has some magical
glamor oil prestige as the result OF
which all doors open easily.
The college student should learn to
think reasonably. so hat his conclu-
sions In all problems are sound and
sensible. He should be able to read
and write and talk we'll, so that he can
be persuasive in dealing with other
people. He should have acquired ac-
curacy, so that he does not make mis-
takes. And he should have learned
observation, so that he sees exact con-
ditions In any problems that he has to
face. Also he should have been In
spired toward good citizenship, 80 that
he is useful in the community.
III the college graduate has acquired
these qualities, he viii go ahead fast.
II he hasn't, all his book learning viii
do him no good.
