 Abells selection incidentally starts an era of graduate coaching at Colgate as the university at the time of his appointment de clared in favor of that system. George Hauser, former Minnesota player, whose resignation as head coach led to Abell's elevation from line coach to head mentor, will serve as assistant to Abbel while pursuing the medical studies which forced him to give up his main coaching responsibilities.

PARIS, Feb. &. Too much politencss burdens the telephone wires of France and the public is being asked to cut out the flour ishes.
 Government telephone officials have advised users to eliminate some of the long -winded forms of courteous usage in asking for and answering calls but news papers go further.
 Inquiries about the health Of Monsieur, Madame, the children and all the relatives and pets are not unusual preludes to a French mans business message to a friend and these. 1t is said, are all day long delaying service. American methods in telephon- ing are cited as good examples,

HAVE DARK HAIR
 AND LOOK YOUNG
Nobody Can Tell Wher You Darken Gray, Fad
 ed Hair With Sage Tea

Grandmother kept her hair beautifully darkened, glossy and attractive with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was applied with won derful effect By asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will get a large bottle of this old-time recipe, improved by the addition of other ingredients, all ready to use, for only 75 cents. This sim pie mixture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beau- ty to the hair.
 Well-known druggists say ev- erybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound now because it darkens so naturally and even fly that nobody can tell it has been applied-it's so easy to use, too. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; after another application or two, 1t is restored to it's natural color and looks glossy, soft and beautiful. adv.

new rhymes, to discard old ones.
Nothing of the sort.
No little girl In washington would
think of singing about any other Irish
man except OLeary.
OLeary has tradition behind him
Because he always has been sung
about, he always will be sung about:
Offhand. It Is difficult to recall
more musical combination of syllables,
so perhaps the children are eminently
right in sticking to him so faithfully.
The point Is, however. that, no mat
ter how many names might be substi-
tuted for OLeary, no child would be
sufficiently radical enough to make the
change.
Indeed, 1t never would occur to them
that any change was desirable. Is not
OTeary the name the little girl used
who first taught them? And wasn't
that the name sung by the girl who
taught her?
Like all of these traditional rhymes,
the origin is unknown. Perhaps 1t had
its inception on the famous sidewalks
of New York, being first sung by some
inventive child with fair for the pic
turesque.
Just as the Jokes of the moment seem
to have no authors, but are repeated
from person to person. and so circle
the globe, the rhymes of the little ones
90 on from age to age.
Picture the child-author slapping the
ball to the ground, counting 'One. two.

Henceforth, In thousand cities, and

His name shall be OLearv. and his
Job that of carrying the mail He shan
never be Sullivan, or Murphy or Den
mis-, or O'Grady (Which would fit very
weln. but shall forever and in all places
and chimes be OLeary.
Thus the OLeary family lives on
not in monuments of stone which CEN
