TOMORROW Alexandria will

Uncle Nick Altrock and Joe

banquet to "Washington'S WorN

large night, with the heroes Of
the evening making speeches 20
great applause.
Clark Griffith was an un-
trained speaker when he went to
Alexandra for the Cardinals
first dinner at the old Hotel RAM
mel. Since then he has developed
into silver-tongued orator. He
filings a mean vocabulary when
he lands upon his feet.
Bucky Harris, too, is well able
to handle himself when it comes
to making speeches. His naive
manner should make a big hit
with the Alexandria fans.
Uncle Nick Altrock has yet to
find himself at a loss for words,
while If his partner in crime, Al
Schacht, happens to be present,
the pair of them have several
comical stunts to offer the bugs.
Joe Judge-well, it must be
admitted that Joe is a bit timid.
If Joe feels sure he won't have
to speak, he'll go down to Alex
andria, but. if he feels he'll have
to say something-well, that's
different. The Alexandrians should
tell Joe to come on down and rise
and bow and do his share on that
Virginia ham. Then Joe'll 60.
Here's hoping Joe will be there.
He is easily the most popular
Washington player-after Walter
Johnson-and even Joe won't

Tomorrow is the big night.

the United States, the one city

FAYOTRE DAME has a magnifi-
IN cent football record from
~ 1906. 1t has played 155
games, winning 1877, losing twelve
and tying six. Few college
elevens have such a fine record.
Only seven elevens have hum
bled Notre Dame in all these
years, West Point, Yale, Nebraska,
Iowa, Indiana, Michigan and
Michigan Aggies. In other words,
the best teams to be found in the
East and Middle West have won
but twelve out of 155 games.

Notre Dame since 1906 has met
such teams as Pittsburgh, Army,
Syracuse, w. and j., Princeton,
Carnegie Tech, Penn State, Rut-
gers, Georgia Tech, Texas, South
Dakota, Marquette, Haskell In

THIS EXPLAINS WHY
THE HORSE is BIG

In scenes showing a group of
riders, it is noticeable that
Frank Campeau usually has a
heavier mount than anyone else.
Among big men and big horses,
his head will rise above them all.
The reason is that Campeau has
a pet horse of unusual size and
prefers it to any other. As in
most of his pictures, this is no.
ticeable in "Not A prum Was
Heard" starring Charles Jones,
which comes TO the Rylander
theater Wednesday.
Campeau has had broad eX-
perience on the stage and screen.
His first notable work was with
Louis Morrison in Faust" Then
he played with Frank Mayo in
"Puddin'head Wilson," later in
Arizona" "The Virginian,
"Kindling," Ghost Breaker
Relieve Me, Xantippe55 and
Within the Law"
He has played in pictures in
"Rio Grande," Life of the
Party" Sins Of Martha Queed, ;"
The Killer" "Small Town Ro-
nance and others of equal sue
cess. In "Not A Drum Was
Heard" he plays the role of a
crooked banker Of the wild west.

Mothers, what would you give to feel
easy when your little one begins to
show signs of bilousness?
1t is customary to think that you
ought to use calomel and castor oil, but
you dread giving these doses as much
as the child fears to take them. And
still, you dread what may happen if
you use just the ordinary children's
laxative.
1t was to meet this very situation that
| invented Liv-o-lax, and if you try it
once, you won't think of using calomel
again.
Liv-o-lax cleanses liver and bowels.
too, and still it is a pleasant tasting
liquid, entirely vegetable, which causes
no distress, serves equally well in colds,
constipation and indigestion and is Just
as good for adults as it is for the child
ren-who really love to take it.

EvangeHstists, said Mr.. Kerr, are
finding evangelism most difficult,
even more so than a few decades
ago. One reason for this is the
lack of a sane consciousness of sin,
Sinful men and women are not con-
