KEEP
To 10 CANES

NEW YORK, Oct. 3O-Knute
Rockne, coach Of the Fighting
IriSh," today announced that no
matter how his team fares in its
remaining 1880 games, the Ramb-
lers will play no post-seaSon
games.
Rockne's announcement was
prompted y the challenge made
yesterday by Major Cavanaugh.
Fordham's head coach, in which
the ram mentor issued a def to
the Irish to meet the Maroon in
a post season contest, provided
both go through the remainder
Of their 1890 schedules unbeaten.
''WY're not worrying about
national football champion
ships,"' was the way ROckne
put his refusal to accept Ford
hams challenge. We're play
10 games this fall, and that's
plenty. ~, ,....
"And we're not through
with our schedule by q long
ways, either. There's North
western, Army and ~Outhern
California ahead Of us yet,
and from what I've been
told they're tough enough to
beat without taking on Ford
ham, too" ....
So there goes the majors dream
Of a poSt-Season game with the
famous Fighting IriSh," a battle
which would, undoubtedly, have
filled any stadium in, the country.

your teachings. which have not only
benefited the health of my family in
various ways but have given us much
peace of mind besides. One little thing
you have taught us is not to worry
about eating any food that is kept in
the tin or can after opening the can
so long as the food is all right when
the can is opened or will Keep all
right in any other container. Until
you showed us the light we had often
discarded perfectly good food because
it had been left ir the opened tin an
hour or tWo.-J. c. H.
Answer-Well. there are plenty OF
misinformed folk who would think you
and me great fools for eating canned
food that has stood in the can over
night. AS Mr.. Barnum remarked, some
people like to be fumbugged, and, by
gum! they resent being enlightened, /
find. Any kind of canned or preserved
food is as wholesome to eat when 1t has
been allowed to stand in the can after
opening, as it would be If allowed to
stand the same length of time in any
other container. The popular notion to
the contrary is largely due, think, to
the practice of certain canning con-
Germs which formerly printed some such
suggestion on the label. They thought
that would be a good alibi in case the
spoiled stuff they marketed did cause
any serious trouble. Gamers who use
only fresh and sound food do not re-
quire an alibi of that sort.

SPRINCTIME
By D. C. PEATTR.

No one who never went a-marshing
really knows the Spring.
There are Just a few weeks in the
year when the marshes of this part OF
the country are at once tolerab!e ana
interesting, for in Summer, though they
are full of fascination, I for one am
content to leave the marshes to the
mosquitoes, the copperheads, and folk
who like getting sunstroke, Wnlle a
marsh in Autumn is mournful anar,
with dead brown stems OF reeds ana
cat-tails going pensively to seed, ana
hunters banging away, to spread death
among the ducks
Now, in early Spring, when the air
is light and cool, and the sky Is empty
blue, and the waters are full with
melted snow and rains, brim to the
margins of the meadows and the woods,
and white violetS bloom at the waters
edge, and golden-club flowers are just
out of reach, who that has breathed
and smelled, and listened, and looked
around a marsh, some other Spring,
some other time, can resist the call?
Some feel the call of rod and worm,
and some timber their rifles. But I
prefer an old net and bottle, for now
Is the season to fill up my aquarium.
Everywhere the shallow waters are full
Of the murky clouds of frogs eggs, and
in some places tadpoles already begin
to emerge. over the water SnooC the
striders, and ditiscus beetles, shining
black, encased in a silver air bubble,
plough about like submarines, their
purpose being, if possible, to torpedo a
snail. or rather to take a juicy nip out
of his soft body, If they are quick
enough.
The algae, too, begin to appear
magically, forming emerald sargassos
wherein a thousand creatures too mi
mute for sight are fast marooned.
A random bottleful Of pond water,
brought home to the microscope, will
yield a dozen forms of life. And so,
after a long days tramp about the
marshes. one comes home, laden with
loot that cost nothing. killed no bird,
and will never be missed from the
waters, and when at night one drops
to sleep, the whole scene comes back
to the inner eye-wide sky, wind rip
pling the waters. the fluttering of the
black b4rd's red-tipped wings, and the
thousandfold motion of the folk that
swim and creep in the tiny ocean.

FACE SUDDENLY PEEKED
BY J. p. GLASS.

Frank Podmore, a noted investigator
of psychic phenomena and a writer on
apparitions, thought transference and
other matters of the kind, himself had
a strange experience. 1t came when he
took over his job of librarian at the
x Library.
| The post had become vacant through
the death of the former librarian, a
certain Mr.. @. who had been in
charge of the place over a very long
period-So long, in fact, that he seemed
( to have become a very Intimate part OF
the institution.
At the time he went to the library
Podmore relates: Il had never seen
Mr.. @ nor any photograph or like
ness Of him. l may, of course,
have heard the library assistants de-
scribe his appearance, though I have
| no recollection of this
| Busy in fitting himself into the work
| Podmore doubtless gave absolutely no
thought to his predecessor Certainly
| if he ever thought of him, it was in the
most impersonal way. He hadn't the
slightest idea that he was to see what
he believed to be the mans ghost.
Four years passed before this took
place. Then, on a March evening, he
nad an eerle adventure.
He had worked after hours. Absorbed
he did not notice the flight of time
until it came to him suddenly hiatt If
he didn't hurry he would miss the last
train. 1t departed at 11:06. He glanced
at his watch. 1t was then 1855.
He gathered up some books and pre-
pared to leave the librarians room by
a passage which communicated with
the main room of the library. But as
he stepped into the passage he saw. or
thought that he saw. mans face at
the other end of it.
! "A thief has gotten in" he told him
self. He turned back TO his room, put
down the books, obtained a revolver
from the safe, and cautiously set out
down the corridor again.
There was no one in the corridor. He
could not at first glance detect any one
/ in the main room. However, this room
was filled with bookcases, and an in
/ truder might be hiding behind one. He
called out loudly for the supposed thief
to show himself. incidentally, he
hoped a policeman might near him and
came to his aid
No policeman came Instead a face
suddenly peeked around from one Of
the bookcases. 1t was a pallid, hair
less face, with deep, sunken eyes. Pod
more was immensely startled, because
it seemed to have no body, or rather
it seemed as though its body might be
in the bookcase. with only the head
sticking out.
He advanced toward 1t determinedly.
Now it seemed to him that an cid, high
shouldered man rotated out of the case.

PesSimiSts.

Some of the worlds greatest thinkers
have concluded that no thinking person
can avoid becoming a pesSimist. And
a few of these thinkers have succeeded
pretty well in proving their contentious
logically.
Pessimistic persons are those who en-
able outcome of events.
Real peSSimiSts have always been
thinkers They carry their reasoning
to the last analysis, and in so doine
they see only facts. facts, facts. In
the general shake-up of their obServa-
lions and nominations they ind just al
many reasons to doubt as to trust in q
favorable outcome for any situation
They get the habit of assuming that
nothinT should be taken for granted
that everything has to be proved. They
don't believe anything.
Life, as the average man or woma'
sees 1t, includes something in addition
to facts and the logical analysis OF
facts. That's why the peSSir1iSts, valu-
able as they are at times, are generally
ignored. We usually like those who
bring good news. We instinctively turn
away from those who live in the
shadows.
SO the out-and-out pessimist really
has no social atmosphere. He Is forced
to live alone with his thoughts. AS he
grows older he tends to turn away from
the world of persons and things and
take refuge In his own ideas. He medi-

Pie Crust.

When I was q youngster thought 1t
was lot of fun to 60 into the kitchen
and make pies. did this after mother
had made the real pie, and fashioned
m little pie out of the scraps of dough
and bits of filling left over after the
big pie had been rounded out.
That was all right for kid, althorg h
my little pie was sorry mess after 1t
aid to digestion, either. When we are
young We have right to play at cook
ing and living. Yes, and we are easily
satisfied with scraps of life.
But what I want to protest against
Is the way in which these scraps of in
digeStibility are handed out to us in
books and magazines, in shows and
films. So many of these are tough. and
they may make folks think that these
morbid topics represent human life as
it is actually lived by the average
person.
We get these pie scraps in sloppy
little stories which appear in maya
zines with lurid covers. We could get
well rounded story, but we have the
idea that the tough little bit of half
baked dough is more spiffy and up to
date.
Some of these writer's may give us a
slant on life that We can't get from a
standard. honeSt-to-g goodness writer, but
If we get nothing but slants we'll be
dizzy and not know whore we're at.
The same kind Of pie baking on the
side is to be seen in some of the shows
put on the stage. OF course, we can't
have Hamlet" and. East Lynne" all
the time, but there is room for good
plays just the same. My ma didn't let
my little pies crowd her big round ones
out of the oven, and there's no reason
why the tough little show should take
the place of the good big one.
You know how 1t is with films, al
though you may no longer be punning
on the difference between real life and
real life. You know perfectly well that
the gangSter and cheap lover whose
mugs are screened at the movies are not
the real man a girl lists among her
acquaintance.
Our popular songs are about as well
adapted to people who have ears for
music as my pies were to people who
know their apple and mince. The av-
erage popular song is aimed at people
with the lowest order of intelligence or
those who are parlyzed above the ears.
I couldn't understand as a kid why
grown folks didn't relish my pesky
little pies, but now l know. They
wanted something real and filling not
a dyspeptic sinker Why can't we be
as wise with the little pie books and pie
plays they're cooking up for us today?

Hats Are Feminine as

Mrs. Lacey often took one or more
of her three daughters with her when
she went on shopping expeditions. Even
though she was buying something for
herself and not for the girls. she felt
that it was part of their education to
shop with her. They heard her discuss
styles, qualities, variability with the
sales people. Then, too, she wanted
them to be proud of their mother S
appearance and feel that they had a
hand in making her look attractive.
Today they were looking for hats.
The saleSwoman stressed the femininity
Of the styles of today. She showed Mrs.
Lacey a lacy straw, while her daugh-
tiers giggled over the similarity in
names, and assured their mother that
nothing could be more appropriate. The
salesWoman said that nothing could be
more smart The hat was worn so that
the crown fitted tightly at the back of
the neck. The short front brim gave
the of the face" effect which is still
good this season.
While Mrs Lacey was examining a
dark blue taffeta hat with white en-
broidered polka dots, the girls found
becoming hats OF fashionable straws.
