BULLDOGS M EE STATE NORMAL ON
 ROAD THIS WEEK


 The Bulldog of Howard college will tackle Jacksonville State normal at Jacksonville Monday and Tuesday of this week. Wednesday and Thurs day the Bulldogs meet Marion on Berry field.
 Tony" Stubbs will probably start the game Monday against Jackson vile The same lineup that has been playing for the Crimson and Blue during the greater part of the year will start. Afford catching, C:riggs on first. Dawson on second, Lackey at short. Brndley playing third, Runyon in left field, shelton in center and Garfield in right. This seems to he the most promising com bination that Coach Cope has worked and with little seasoning should develop into a crack nine.
 The first Birmingham southern game of the annual fivegame series will be played on April 30. The Bull dog has his weather eye cooked for this series and figures to come out on top when the final score Is tabu- lated

LONDON. April 14.-(By Asso- ciated Press )-The ordinary English man is not bothering his head much ovet the Ruhr. the budget. war debts. or other important but indieestible topics of the time Along with his wife he gives a thought now and then to the approaching marriage of the Duke of York or to pictures of Prin- cess Mary's son. out for the most part his interest after business hours is centered in sports. which are reaching pre-war popularity this season.
 The crest in the rising tide of spring athletics came recently. A million Londoners this spring flocke from their homes and offices to see football matches, track and field sports. boat races, .horse races and other events. Perhaps larger numbers witnessed varied program in every county.
 At the Chelsea football ground, where the semi-final soccer match for the English championship was played, 50,000 persons entered the stands as soon as the gates were opened. The turnstiles were closed two hours before game time, thus barring thousands who stood out side.
 One hundred thousand persons crowed the lAintree course outside Liverpool on Friday last to witness the grand national steepIeehase Many of the spectators travelled hundreds of miles for this event, but the weather was so hay that only a privileged few saw the horses take more than one or two jumps. However there were no complaints.

 5OO.OOO Saw Rnce.
 The universality of devotion to sports among the English was mo- where more strikinsly evinced than at the Oxford-Cam bridge boat race, which was witnessed by at least 500.- 900 persons. Very few of these had ever been to college or ever hoped to get there. yet everyone was strongly partisan. The street urchns and the grammar school youngsters waxed so argumentative that fisti- cuffs were frequent in their efforts

Within a short period western Can
ada has come to be governed by its
farmers, by actual representative
agricultural members with the inter-
ests of the farming parties at heart
and a knowledge Of what they want
and should have. In certain provinces
this has been effected in a gradual
manner, the progressive spirit work
ing like leaven through the introduce
ton of new blood as farmer members
we're elected to seats as they became
vacant. The party retained its name,
but it's views and it's aims underwent
a subtle change, writes r. L. Chicanot
in Current History Magazine. In other
provinces the farmer organizations
were turned into powerful political ma
chimes, existing governments were
bodily overthrown and entire farmer
parties substituted.

in to congratulate him, the butcher

trying to sell him an automobile-all
gave him advice with unstinted gener-

And when the house was built 1t
had a groundwork of Tudor architec-

MAN AND WOMAN

While woman's appearance i'm.
proves with summer, her dainty SHIN
mering hot weather dresses adding to
her attraction, mans pride in his ap-
%pearance wanes, says the DennisOn
Herald. His carefully creased trous-
ers and coat, nesting close to his
shoulders and fitting snug at the waist,
gives way to the baggy, increased, ILL
fitting summer suit" Mans sum-
mer suit is utilitarian; 1t IS not beau
tiful. Fetchingly CARRIED in organizes
and georgettes Of soft pastel shades,
woman defies the heat of summer and
locks hone the worse for it. Not so
with man. He hurriedly dons fabrics
that bag, stretch and wrinkle; fabrics
that give him a saggy, droopy appear
ance. His sartorial splendor willis
before the hot blasts of summer.
While woman grasses the heat with a
few pats and dabs at her face with
a powder puff, man, his face shining,
his hair tousled, perspiration willing
his collar, mops at his steaming brow
continuously. The dapper figure in
form-fitting coat, carefully tailored
trousers, hair sleek and carefully
brushed, of spring, undergoes a meta
morphosis in summer. He may even
stoop to wear the alpaca coat, whose
unstylish appearance is familiar to all
who have listened to political
speakers.

the ultra radicals who would tear

the merits of the short and long tor
has not aroused much interest in the
coal-buying public. Interest would
have been keen in any plan to cut
down the price CT coal, which every
coal consumer believes to be extor
tionate.
AS to- where lies the blame for the
extortion the coal consumer cannot
say, and official Investigations seem
not to have shed much light on the
matter. But the consumer is convinced
that the price Of coal is beyond rea
son, and that he is being squeezed by
some party or combination of parties
concerned in the digging and dlstribu
ton Of coal.
1t was not strange that most per
sons. smarting under extortionate
coal charges. should smile at a long
and apparently serious discussion as
to the wisdom of reducing the number
of pounds of coal in ton and making
a. proportionate reduction in the price
per ton. 1t really seemed that some
persons connected with the coal in
dustry believed that the coal consumer
would like the idea because he would
be paying less for a ton Of coal.

81, 900 miles in the streets of Wash

accident. No truck struck a pedes

was a record, and shows what can be
done by careful driving. Postmaster
Mooney wrote a letter of congratula

You are helping to make Washington

has written a letter to the postmaster
expressing appreciation Of the careful
drivers. 1t is believed that chauffeurs
Of other branches Of the federal gov
ernment in Washington may learn to
drive as satisfactorily as those Of the
city post off1ce, and that the truck
drivers of private firms may also be
trained or coerced into using the
streets as carefully as the post office
drivers. Perhaps it might be that the
general motor-driving public could be
educated to the standard reached by
the post Office drivers. Yes, it might
be. But not yet,

The Old-Fashioned Ton.

A ton of coal should weigh 2,240
pounds. People have learned to think
of a ton Of coal as weighing that num-
ther of pounds, just as they are in the
habit Of thinking Of a pound Of bread
as weighing sixteen ounces. One
might conceive that reasons could
arise calling for a change in the
weight Of a ton, but such reasons have
not arisen. The Commissioners have
decided that they win not recommend
to Congress that the legal ton Of coal
in the District be reduced from 2.240
to 1000 pounds, and in taking that
position they stand on the report Of
the superintendent of weights and
measures, which was adverse to re.
Ising the coal ton downward.
The proposition to sell coal by the
"short" ton instead Of by the ''long"
ton, which has been the immemorial
custom in the District, was advanced
some time ago by a number of local
coal dealers, who believed that in such
a change there would be some advan-
tage to the public and to themselves.
They agreed to reduce the price per
ton proportionately with the reduction
in the pounds per ton. That would
have been expected, and was looked
on by the public as not being much Of
concession The controversy over

The DRY" Fashion.

President Harding has become a
total abstainer. He has let it be
known that he believes every good
citizen should decline to drink alco.
holic beverages. whether lawfully ac-
quired or not. This in the furtherance
of law enforcement.
The White House sets the fashion.
1t sets the fashion for the entire
country, but particularly for Wash
ington. 1t will be interesting to OBJ
serve how many of the high officials
of the administration will take the cue
from the President in regard to cock
tails, wines and hard liquors. 1t will
be equally interesting to observe how
society generally in Washington, and
In other big cities, follows his lead in
this matter.
One of the great obstacles in the
past to the real enforcement of pro-
hibition has, been the fact that men
high in government circles have not
scrupled to continue to enjoy their
before-dinner cocktails, their wines
and highballs. This practice has not
been confired to public officials. but
men OF prominence and of wealth in
all walks Of life have made. the pro.
hibition law a Joke" 1t has been
fashionable" to serve cocktails and
all the other stimulants. And a very
small percentage Of these alcoholic
beverages have been lawfully ac.
quired."
And now cold water is to be the
fashion. The edict has gone forth
from the White House. 1t is, by the
way, a fashion that will harm no one.
Another President. also from Ohio,
Rutherford B. Hayes, more than forty
five years ago. was a total abstainer,
and duriag his administration the
White House was dry" He was
many years ahead of nationwide pro.
hibition, however. Many We're jokes
about the White House dinners, and
the devices that diplomats were put to
in order to attend state functions and
at the same time not perish for lack
of alcok olic stimulant.
In sys when even the "subdeb''
must have her flask; when a youth Is
not popular at a dance unless he can
provide stimulating drinks for his
partners and friends; when the younger
people of the country are drinking as
they never did before: when bootleg
gers are known as society" bootleg
gers and law officers are derided, the
Chief Executive is to be congratulated
upon the stand he has taken, upon
the personal example he is setting.
