is it the case that plain living and
high thinking of a simple age have
given way to high living and not
much of any thinkin these days?
Poverty is regarded as a sin and
wealth is the right of every man.
when life ceases to be interpret
ed in terms of conflict. it begins to
disintegrate and the ultimate end of
disintegration is disease and death
No one may expect to win the game
of life without going into training
We must also stay in training. and
when the actual contest is on. what
ever it may be. we must do our best
until the end, for at the last moment
we may be disqualified But this
takes time. And time is Just the
commodity that Young America
does not seem to possess: ii has al
most everything else but time and
educa ton even in college seems to
get only the flag end of our minutes.
THE world is full of colorless peo-
pie with middle-of-t the road morals
whose attitude toward every issue is
more than moderation. A domoc-
racy is effective only in proportion
to the number Of it's citizens who
have been trained to master them
selves.
Your diplomas do not carry with
them a guarantee of perpetual i'm
munity from mental paralysis One
of the most obvious reasons why
this is so is because the work of the
world is no longer done by hand.
The day of the craftsman is past.
Only ne builders of machinery and
the captains of industry need to
think, and they constitute the few:
the many are symbolized by the man
whose occupation for 10 years in the
assembling room Of a great auto
mobile factory was the tightening
of Nut Number Sixty Seven.
THE secret of victorious life lies
in the end for which ii - lived. One

the run which gave the locals the

TILDEN'S GAME
tBy Dispatch A. P. wire)

NEW YORK, Feb. 2G.-Tne magic
touch of victory returned to William
IT, Tilden's racquet today for the first
time since Americas tennis suprema-
CIV has been challenged by Frances
young invaders. With Vincent Rich
ards as his partner, the American Ma
tional champion led the way to an
uphill victory over Rene Lacoste and
Jacques Brugnon in the third match
Of the international indoor series.
The scores were As, 6-2, $40, 6-1,
and rs.
This doubles triumph gave the
United States lead of two matches
te one in the series, which will be
concluded tomorrow with two singles
matches on the courts of the seventh
regiment armory. Tilden will face
Borotra while Richards will encoun-
ter Lacoste in these contests and vic
tory in either will give America the
decision. Tilden, apparently stung
by the successive singles setbacks
he has suffered at the hand of Boro-
ira and Lacoste within the past week,
was the dominant factor in the Amer
lean teams triumph this afternoon.
He had brilliant support from Rich
ards, these two joining forces in in
ternational play for the first time
since 1922, but it was the dynamic
force of the champions game that
pulled the match out of the fire af-
ter the Frenchmen had gained a lead
of two sets to one.

WAS NOT HIMSELF.

NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-Greb, to
newspaper men at the ringside was
not himself, appearing drawn and
nervous at the start but the negro
was in excellent condition and conf1~
dent. Seldom did the famous wind
miII' onslaught of the great PITTS

ers, one setback for the negro comma
in the fourth round when Greb bait
tered him to all corners of the ring
and another in the thirteenth.
Boxing critics argued that tho
margin obtained by the negro was
too small for a title to change hands,
although it was generally admitted
that he had won under the rules OF
the New York state athletic CONS
mission which provides that all bouts
must be decided by rounds gained.
Greb seemed stunned by the verdicr
but said nothing. He shook hands
with the new champion without smils
ing.
Total paid attendance for the bout
was 1871 and the gross receipts
$105,134.70. 1t is estimated that Greb
received $4,000 for his share while
