she sat down and considered
ways and means Of making things

This is what she finally worked
out. She got permission from her
landlord to use the roof of her
building for a summer garden.
She interested q dozen other
tenants Of the apartment house
In her project. They got up a
fund and furnished the roof with

pretty wicker furniture. They
put an awning roof over part Of
the place and left the rest open

For 1t points to the beauty of a
course of years as between two
or more-institutions wherein the
thing that counts, that gives the
deepest satisfaction is not a fieeting
national. or even sectional, prestige,
but a successful adventure against
ones dearest enemy, and, paradox
cally, ones most devoted friend.
Herein lies the essence of the high
est form of intercollegiate sport,
fact that seems TO have escaped the

familiar event to great majority of
followers of intercollegiate sport But

The Army and Navy have no ethi-

that the confusion affects the home
