ONLY ONE STARTER
RETURNS FROM 1899

The Skibos. like their Pittsburgh
rivals, have been accomplished.
Illinois is a second division club
in the Big Ten; the two service
schools are no stronger than they
were = year ago, and Iowa and
Northwestern both are definitely
weaker.
Although Lavden lost 10 out of
IL starters by graduation. his
1910 club finds last years re-
serves ready to take over in typ
ical Notre Dame style.
And the fact that there are NJ
least four sophomores threaten
ing to crash the starting lineup
any Saturday now. indicates how
far the replacement situation has
come along.
Lone returning starter from
1910 is Tom Gallagher at left
tackle. but there are lettermen
all along the front wall. George
Rassas works next 10 Gallagher
at end, and Pete Kelly is the
guard on that side.
Martin O'Reilly and Bob oster-
man will battle all season for the
center job. and while neither is
an All America. they'll more than
do. John Gubanich 160-pound
right guard, looks like another
Bert Metzger. Right tackle is
capably handled by Cliff Brosey
while Paul Lillis recuperates from
broken nose John O'Brien de-
ploys at the other end.

In Northern Territory there are still several cattle leases bigger than Belgium. MobS of cattle from these stations, 1000 head to the mob, are driven 2000 miles overland to the auction markets at Melbourne. Four stockmen, cook and a horse taller for the 40 saddle and pack horses handle drive, which takes over year Water holes are often 50 miles apart, and the stock has to be rested and fattened twice on the long drive.
 The chief police officer at Dar- win, capital of the Northern Ter ritory, covers a beat of 25,000 square miles. They don't have much trou- ble with cattle thieves, because there isn't any place to take a stolen herd. U. S. BUYS MOST
 AUSTRALIAN GOLD
 At Darwin in 1914, an enterprise ing British meat packing company built a $5,0O0,000 plant to process the beef products closer to the cattle stations. It operated three year, making canned meats for war sup plies.
 Then labor trouble beset the con- pany and the plant stands here to- day, deserted, biggest thing on the Port Darwin landscape, monu- ment to folly.
 There is gold in Australia's in- terior, the first strike coming in 1851, two years after California's gold rush. The mines in western Australia produce nearly $45 100000 of gold year now, $40,000,000 of it going to the United States.

itual realities of all things are cre- ated by Him (GoO and exist for ever" This is the ark which today is building in mems consciousness, and in which they must take refuge, and in which alone can be found safety and security. The revealed truth that "all things are created by Him and exist forever" assures us that the real universe and man are forever intact. No deluge of error or cloud of atheistic belief can ever again obscure them or their divine Principle.
 Jesus said, Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away" Christian Science shows that the material concept If heaven and earth must be exchanged for the true, or spiritual concept, i'll accordance with Jesus words. The Masters words were and are the truth of Spirit. They express the verity of Minds ideas, the for ever reality of Gods reflection. Be- cause of this they are immortal; they will never pass away.
 As the worlds idea of salvation becomes more spiritual, it will be- come more universal. Always as the concept of the divine nature unfoldS as Love, the thoughts, aims, and desires of humanity become broader, more universally inclusive. And it is interesting at this point to note that the root meaning of the principal words ito save" in the Old Testament, is to be broad, spa cious; salvation means enlargement, complete redemption. (See Hastings Bible Dictionary) In Christian Sci ence it broadens into deliverance for all mankind from sin, disease, and death through the teachings of the Comforter, the Christ.
 In the light of this final revela- tion of Truth, this Spirit of truth or truth of Spirit-which is leading this age onward and upward into the realm of infinite knowledge, we see that in reality there can be no retrogression, there can be no lapse into the darkness and superstition of a material concept of man and the universe. Rather must the world go forward to the highest concept of Science, or Truth, into the might and majesty of Minds more infinite unfoldments-to the divine Science, which, in the words of it's Discoverer (No and Yes, p. l3), takes hold of eternity, voices the infinite, and governs the universe"
 The eternity of Truth is clearly set forth in these lines of the we'll known hymn Christian Science Hymnal, No. 337);
 Theories. which thousands cherish,
 Pass like clouds that sweep the
 sky; Creeds and dogmas all may perish;

world today seems to be filled with violence. Many predict that deluge of retrogressive ideologies, both re- hgious and political, will sweep away our civilization, and all the most sacred landmarks and symbols of Christian faith.
 From a spiritual standpoint, how ever, this threatening deluge is seen as the breaking up of material be- iefs. Refuge from this flood of error, this turmoil, confusion, and upheaval, is found now, as in Noahs time, in the safety of the ark. You will recall that Noah was warned of God to prepare an ark to the saving of his house.

Port Darwin, Australia, Oct. H. Take a map of Australia and lay it beside a map of the United States. They are approximately equal in area, though the population of Australia is only seven million, as compared with the 130 million in the U. s.
 On the east coast of Australia the cities corresponding to Boston, New York and Philadelphia: Bris- bane, 326,0OO; Sydney, 1,300,O00; and Melbourne, 1,O5O,OOO. On the west coast spot Perth, 225 1000 CLOS An geles). On the south Adelaide, 323, 900 (New Orleans). These five cities, plus the industrial town of Newcastle, 145,O0O and Canberra the capital, 10000, comprise half of Australia's population.
 So. take an area equal to all of the United States, scatter a mere three and half million people (the population of Chicago over the vast interior, and you have a faint idea of what Australia is like.
 The comparison, however, isn't as simple as that. The bi difference isn't mere lack of population in Australia, but a lack of water. One fourth of Australia has less than 10 inches of rainfall. One fourth has from 10 to 20 inches. One fourth has from 20 to 40. One fourth has over 40 inches, which is enough.
 IMMIGRANTS FAIL
 AT FARMING
 Lack of water is the one thing which has held back Australia, and it explains why the government of the commonwealth has deliberately restricted immigration. While the land has room enough for a popula- ton 20 times its present size, it takes a homesteader who knows the country and its Limitations to make successful settler.
 After the first World War, Aus tralia took in wave of immigrants, trying to start them on the. land. But they couldn't make it go, Hooked into the cities and thus added to the woes of the depression. Australia still has eight per cent of it's people unemployed, for all its emptiness.
 Inside the fertile coastal fringe, therefore, you find this tremendous bush country, the back blocks and the desert. Flying over it you see thousands of miles of country like the panhandle of Texas, the bad lands of the Dakotas, unirrigated Arizona, New Mexico sheep country, COW country, dry farming wheat desert that is below sea level and lands, and thousand miles of like nothing more than Death Valley at its worst.
 All this bush is the story country of Australia.

their war paint, casting a spear, throwing a boomerang, beating a drum and doing dance, pounding the hard ground with their bare feet in wicked rhythm that sounds above the drums and the "didgery- doc" music.
 CHEAP LABOR
 VETOED
 The aborigines are a vanishing race and the Australian policy is to let tem vanish, for whatever future Australia has it will be as a white mans country.
 Ideas have been advanced to bring in cheap labor and exploit the interior. As northern Australia IS tropical and the interior just natur- ally hot, dry desert, only black races can stand the climate.
 To all such ideas, Australian cap- ital and Australian labor hs turned a deaf ear. Japs, Hindus, Chinese and the Malayan races have been practically excluded. Selected white immigrants - agricultural workers who know dry farming, skilled work men for crafts which Australian labor cannot supply-are welcome, but the commonwealth will have no emptying of London slums, thank you.
 Whether or not this will work to Australia's advantage remains to be seen. Given normal times, there will develop new white mans empire in lands that have always been black or brown. But with war on, Australia needs manpower.
