 Team Is to Meet Navy and Harvard

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Feb. 26.-Syra cuse University's lacrosse team, de lending it's national and international titles, will meet both the Navy and Harvard in Archbold Stadium here this spring. it was announced recently by Professor Laurie D. Cox, father of lacrosse at Syracuse and coach of the Orange twelve.
 The Navy will come here on May 19, one week after the appearance in this city of Harvard It will be the first appearance of either Harvard or the Navy here, and also will be the first time that the Middies, undefeated in three seasons, ever have been drawn away from their home field at An napolis.
 The agreement was reached after more than two months of negotiations between the management of the two institutions and was clinched only on

consideration that the Syracuse team would go to Annapolis for a return game during the 1924 season. Pro lessor Cox plans to submit the last Saturday of April of next year as a tentative date.
 The 1924 date which Professor Cox will submit to the Navy will be the last Saturday of the Oranges annual Southern trip. It was given to Johns Hopkins last year and this year, but Professor Cox will offer it to the Navy for next year.
 The definite signing of the Navy completes the biggest and hardest schedule ever attempted by any la crosse team. The Orange schedule contains eighteen contests with the strongest teams in the United States, in addition to- six across the water, in- cIuding the strong Cambridge and OK ford twelves.

 There is scarcely bridge of a railroad depot between Limerick and Dublin that has not been maged The total cost of the property de- stroyed is estimated at $6,000,000 or more. Every quarter of mile is guarded by little group of Free State soldiers. It was cold and mis- crable Showers of sleet, snow and rain, accompanied by biting blast, made one shiver, and yet along the railroad, living in dugouts and in improvised shelters of every kind, were the troops of the Free State. In one place they were stationed un- der rudely constructed hut beneath which swirled the waters of a swol- len stream. At all the stations guards are mounted day and night, and it iH solely due to their presence that travel is possible at all.

The courts are open, and the Free State troops and the Civic Guard are main taining conditions which, in con trast to those of seven months ago, might truthfully be described as peaceful.

Sees Revival of Old Aoi- tation Against Capital
 Punishment
NOT BASED ION REAS0N''
If Women Able to Com-
 init Crimes, Should Pay enalty

LONDON, Feb. 26.-Capital punish ment has found champion in Bishop Weldon.
 Prejudice against capital punish ment "is not prejudice justified by reason" the Bishop declares.
 Since the hanging of Mrs. Edith Thompson and Frederick Bywaters, convicted of the murder of Mrs Thompson's husband, there has been constant and growing agitation throughout England for the abolition of capital punishment
 "There seems to be an epidemic of crime" said Bishop Weldon in dis. cussing the agitation which is going on. Tt is probably due to the reac. tion of war. Society is bound to de fend itself against malefactors. Old attacks upon capital punishment are being renewed, though the renewal is faint hearted.
 | Penalty Deserved
 Looking at the most recent of all murders, I cannot escape the feeling that no punishment short of death would have satisfied the moral sense of righteousness in the heart of the nation. To take even worse case what other punishment could have proved even approximately equal to | hn nf T
 Moral imagination is a sound ele. ment in the life of the nation, nor can I doubt capital punishment acts as deterrent to crime. not so much crimes committed under the sudden impulse of strong passion, but as mak- ing men and woman hesitate before yielding to passions exciting them to murder.
 Women Not Immune
 "There has been a strong prejudice against the infliction of capital punish ment upon women, but it is not a prejudice justified by reason.
 "If women are capable of crime as bad as men the same punishment is due equally with men. They must be ready not only to enjoy the advantages but to accept the penalties of such equality"
 Bishop Welldon's defense of capital punishment, and particularly capital punishment for women, has caused a mild commotion in circles opposed tc capital punishment, and numerous answers to his argument have flooded the newspaper offices.

weeds, which will r94uire a good deal of time and trouble to remove, is indicative of general conditions.
 Six months ago, when I was in Limerick, the fighting by the Free State soldiers was in full swing outside the city. Now it is like visit ing a new country. The war on the railroads by the Republicans had not become very acute then, yet it was impossible to get into Limerick by rail The nearest I could get was Nenagh, and from there I was con- pelled to get push bicycle and had to work around through Clare into Limerick. No automobile could get through, as the roads had been trenched and mined.
 The journey is still slow and long, and in many places the engineer has to slow down his engine and crawl over temporarily repaired breaches, but the trip can be made by rail.
 When I started out from Dublin recently I set myself the task of counting the number of broken bridges and the number of signal sabins and railroad buildings which have been burned. Before I got to Limerick I realized the futility of the

then frontward and backward This IS

T HE woman had spent the summer
in the woods. She had walked
and she had padded, she had
climbed hills and she had exercised in
other ways, but the country air had
given her a ravenous appetite and she
had eaten heartily. Also, corsets had
had no place in her camp wardrobe. All
this is of little importance had the
woman been a slim young thing Of
twenty but, although she was pretty
and young looking she had left the
twenties several years behind.
She ha never thought much about her
figure. 1t had always been slender.
with long, graceful lines thar were the
Joy of her dressmaker. Therefore the
shock was great when on her return
to town she sailed forth on shopping
expedition, and to her horror discovered
when she tried on the new frocks that
her slim grace was only a memory. She
was wide and thick and there was
suspicious solidity that struck terror to
her soul, forecasting, as it did, the set
tied figure of approaching middle age.
The browning stroke came when she
picked out a particularly smart model
and the saleswoman looking some what
skeptical, said, Il am afraid madam.
you're bit too heavy below the waist
to wear just these lines" Like one in
q trance she went bo,k to her apartment,
turned on every light and standing be-
fore the mirror took stock. 1t was all
too true, while she VAS not exactly fat
even to herself she couldn't admit that
she was perilously near 1t.
To her surprise the Woman discovered
that dieting was not synonymous with
starvation 1t was simply a matter of
regulating the amount and the kind of
food eaten. She learned that all sweets
and fats had to be eliminated and
starchy food cut down to the smallest
amount. t},'r
In the diet which she followed rigor-
ously were included lean meats, plenty
of green vegetables and fruits which, if
cooked, were served without butter or
sugar. Swiss and cottage cheese, for
these are made of skim milk, and skim
milk itself Coffee and tea were taken
with the least possible amount of cream
and no sugar. Cereals, sugar, untoasted
bread, butter, desserts, bacon, cream
and olive oil, as well as rich sauces and
salad dressing, were also scratched off
the list. Among the vegetables which
had a place in her diet were asparagus,
cabbage, caulihower. string beans,
onions, tomatoes ard lettuce and such
fruits as peaches pears, apples, pluns
and oranges could be eaten without fear
