SMITH, TravelingPass’r Agent, Brown-Mars Bldg. Birmingham, Ala. S IGNS of an awakening in the educational world against inter-collegiate athletics are beginning to appear. A few years before Dr. Eliot retired from the presidency of Harvard University he attacked the evil in one of his an infill reports. Ho demonstrated been a hurt, and not a help, to the University, and that the notion that such games advertise an edu cational institution and increase its patronage was not ustified by the facts in the case of Harvard. Now comes Surgeon-General Stokes, of the United States Navy, and Colonel Townsley, the Super intendent of the United States Mil itary Academy, 'opposing inter-col legiate games, especially games of football. These officials are not sour Puritans nor snarling fanatics. They are strong men stating plain facts plainly. In his annua! report Colonel Townsley shows that 75 per cent, of all the physical inuries of the cadets, treated by the surgeons in the season at West Point) are due to casualties in games of football, although only forty or fifty stu dents participate in games while the 25 per cent, of patients treat ed come from 600 cadets who take no part in these contests. ARMY JOURNAL QUOTED. The Army and Navy Journal (New York) has taken up the matter and publishes the facts a clear nad convincing manner. Among other things it says: “Colonel Townsley says that the frequency of injuries to football players, and the permanent char acter of many of such injuries, make it a question of whether football is of sufficient value to tlie corps to warrant its continu ance and the tremendous expen diture of time and money in volved. Of the sixty-one inju ries due to football amt treated at the hospital at West Point from September 1 to November 30 last year, eleven were of a character liable to cause future trouble—that is, 18 per cent of the injuries were of a serious nature. Colonel Townsley says: ‘B’ootball certainly serves no useful purpose in the physical development of training in the corps, as it is voluntary and at tracts to its squad only the few who are already physically strong-, active, and well devel oped. Its value, if it has any, lies mainly in the interest, en tertainment, and excitement it affords to the other members of the corps and the thousands who attend its principal contests and are willing to contribute to its support.’ “Surgeon-General Stokes, from the very beginning of his term as head of the Bureau of Medi cine and Surgery of the Navy, has thundered against thfe in jurious effects of football and other too strenuous sports, and in his very first annual report took strong ground against the encouragement of games which he believes tend to weaken the heart of the participant and thus a CURES?

Dr. Stokes lias studied the ca reers of a number of officers who were athletes in their Acad emy days, and has sought to prove from the data thus collect ed that the service suffers a pos itive loss in weakened physi que at a time in life when the best should be expected of officers in the coordination of mind and body. In one of the surgeon-general’s reports he gave the records of 623 star athletes in classes from 1891 to 1911, compared with the records of 580 of nor.-athletic midshipmen, showing that the former had suf fered severely in health. An ex cess of 60 per cent was shown among these star athletes over the non-athletic in valvular dis eases of the heart, general poor health, obesity, tuberculosis, etc. The surgeon-general of the Navy believes that this condition is brought about by overtraining and overstraining, and has recom mended that athletics be regulated to avoid such conditions, that en durance contests dependent upon brute strength be eliminated from the category of Academy sports, and that a maximum effort be made to develop a symmetrical, normal physique rather than a highly specialized machine.” The conclusions of Colonel Townesley and Surgeon-General Stokes are abundantly justified by the facts reported daily in the newspapers. SERVE NO GOOD PURPOSE. It is certainly quite true that these games “serve no useful pur pose in the physical development” of the students of a College. Even if they were beneficial, their bene fits would be confined to only a small part of the students—; less than sixty of the 600 cadets at West Point, for example, or less than one in ten. Every College should provide for the physical development of Its students; but this is done by a good gymnasium, under a careful and competent physical director, to which each student is required to go regularly, unless excused for cause. In this way every student receives the exercise for which the particular features of his case call. As Surgeon-General Stokes shows, the system of inter-collegiate athlet ics absolutely hinders the physical development of the young men who play in the games. The star ath letes of the Academy are shown to have “suffered positive loss in weak ened physique.” Dr. Stokes is right when he in sists that these games, which in volve “over-training and over-strain ing,” should he eliminated from sports of the Naval Academy, and that attention should he directed to the development of “a symmetrical, normal physique rather than a high ly specialized machine.” This should he the coursfe pursued by every college. Games that are not good for the Military and Naval officers, who are to fight our battles in time of war, are not good for the thousands of young men who are to engage in the battle of life for the achieve ment of the victories of peace. EFFECT OF THE SYSTEM. The facts in all this matter of inter-collegiate athletics are beyond dispute; and only one conclusion can be drawn from these facts, viz., the system is injurious to students, physically, mentally, and morally. College authorities ought to put the evil away; for in their heart of hearts they know it is an evil and wish it were abolished. But they are intimidated by the clamor of immature school-boys; they wish big enrollments and fear to act as they ought to act lest they lose a few students to competing insti tutions. A compelling public opinion should constrain the putting away of this evil. Let parents firmly refuse to send their sons to institutions which allow inter-collegiate ath letics and the thing will perish from the land in a year. This much parents owe to the country as well as to their sons. in the case of the Naval Acade my at Annapolis and the Military Academy at West Point congres sional legislation may be required, if the authorities in charge of those institutions are not already clothed with power to abolish these injurious games. It may come to pass that legisla tion by the several states will be needed to put an end to the evil in some quarters. But whatever may he the method adopted to put away these maim ing games, they ought to be ended speedily. Laws have been adopted to pre vent the killing of calves in order to prevent the decrease of beef- cattle. How much better is a boy than a calf? Are not our college hoys—the choice youths of the country—worth protecting? The Killing of calves, if uncheck ed, will result in reducing the amount of beef to be had a few years hence. To what does the maiming and brutalizing of college students lead in the future? We can get on without beef far better than we can without man. CONGRESS IS STUDYING ALASKAN RAILROAD BILL BY RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON, Dec. 1—It Is quite possible the question of whether the government, as part of a comprehensive plan c^f Alaska development. Is to build and operate 1,000 miles, more or less, of railroads in that territory, will be de cided not on its merits but rather with distinct reference to the larger question of general publi'c policy, namely: is it wise to establish a precedent which, in time, may be used to force government ownership and operation of the railroads in continental United States? This is not to say, in advance of the consideration of this important ques tion by congress, how it will be decided. This, nobody knows. It is only to say that the question is larger and more important than its local application to Alaska at first glance would seem to indicate, and that, in its final determi nation, congress will view the situation from all possible angles and indulge in a debate which will, in the aggregate, be a Careful and comprehensive review of all the arguments pro and con on the question of government ownership of public utilities. THE EVENING MAKING STORY (Copyright, 1913, by W. Werner.) GOOD “But other men make lots of money," pouted Flossie Welton—“other men, not near as nice looking or smart as you.” She ended with a look in which the old adoration was strongly mingled. taxi hire, and costly entertaining were beyond their means. Instead he watch ed his modest provision for a rainy day follow his monthly earnings. At last it was all gone. There was “Anything is better than running in debt.” George Welton set his shoulders and; no longer any hope of his love shield- gazed helplessly at her. “I do my ting her from an exact knowledge of best, Flossie,” he said. “Perhaps you their circumstances.

I know there are plenty of men I on an arm of his Morris chair, who make more than I do, but they’re! “Dear,” he said, smiling up at her, worth it without a doubt.” “we’ve got to begin to practice econ- He did not add that many made less! omy with a capital E.” I Flossie shook her yellow crowned head at him. “I don’t like economy,” she objected. “I think it’s horrid.” “But it’s only for a time,” he plead ed “I know it won’t be for long. And anything’s better than running in debt. If we can manage to keep our feet for the balance of this year I think we'll be all right. In fact, I’m pretty suf* of it. Old Weatherbank spoke to me about it himself. Rand, their European buyer, is leaving them this year, and I’m to have the place. That means everything you desire—trips abroad, everything.” Flossie still pouted. “But I don’t want things next year,” she said. “I want them now. Maybe next year I v/on’t enjoy them so much. 1 want things now. We can get them now and pay for them next year.” “I wouldn’t be willing to do that, Flossie,” he explained patiently. “It’s scarcely fair to run in debt for luxuries with no surety of paying for them.” “I thought you said you were sure.” “So-1 am—reasonably. But nothing’s sure. ‘There’s many a slip/ Lots of things,might happen.” “Oh, lots of things do happen,” she cried, “but never anything good. We’re no better off than we were; we’re worse, for you even grudge the little that I spend. I’m tired of it. If you can t make good I want to go back home un til you do.” \ And then George Welton was alone. It was characteristic of him that he balanced the books before he went to bed, and characteristic of Flossie that she cried herself to sleep and did not appear before he left in the morning. The next day he dragged himself wearily home. He was out of concert with himself and with life. Flossie was sulkily silent. Dinner over, they went into the living room from force of habit, but did not take t^eir accustomed chairs. Flossie pretended to read. Her husband made no such pretense, but watched her with hurt, grave eyes. At last he spoke. His voice rang abrupt and unreal. .... * . “Flossie,” he said, “I’m willing for you to go home for a while, if you want to. I can’t bear to feel that you’re dissatisfied and unhappy. And I guess, as you say, I’m not the kind to make good. I had an opportunity today to put $500 in your pocket and didn’t take it.” ‘Why?” she questioned coldly. “Why? The Lord knows! Because I’m a fool, I guess. One of the men who wants to get the trade of the firm put $500 on my desk. God knows how my fingers itched for it! How I thought of your face if I could bring that much home! How I hesitated! How 1 put love and honor on the scales and found out that honor topped them! I put the money in his hand and ordered him out of the office. But coming home I thought how disappointed you’d be in me. And I realized that I could never make good after your fashion—that we don’t think alike”— He stopped and covered his face with his hands. Flossie crossed the room swiftly, and, stooping, gathered his head to her breast, as his own mother might have done. In that moment she passed from a spoiled child to a woman, with a woman’s heritage to comfort and to bear. “Five hundred times 500 wouldn’t make me as proud as I am.” she whis pered. “And—about that trip home— we’ll take it together in vacation. Father will know, father will understand, just like I do, that you’ve made good!” and managed very well upon it. In deed, he scarcely thought of it. The one thought that whirled through his barin was that it had only taken six brain to prove that he could not give Flossie the things that she had been accustomed to, and that she missed them. The thought hurt. His face showed it. The next words that Flos sie said were spoken with her arms about his neck. “It isn’t only the things money will buy,” she whispered, “it’s the success, the making good before other people that I care for. And I know you can do it. Papa used to say that you would. Guess how much Ralph Tren ton made over his salary last month. A thousand dollars! Just think of that! She asked me how much extra you had made, and I had to tell her nothing. You know the way she puts up her lip when she’s surprised or dis- usted? Well, she did it to me. And she said: ‘Oh, George has no go to him. No one has the opportunity that a buyer has. He ought to make more on the side than his salary amounts to.’ I felt just awful about it. You know you’re twice as smart as \Ralph.” George Welton closed his lips tight ly, and did not say what he might have said. But Flossie went on, put ting some of his thoughts into words. “I know he gambles, and is horrid in lots of ways. 1 wouldn’t have you like him for the world, but I would be proud if I could tell her you had made a big lump of money. And,” she laughed in his eyes, “I could use it.” She was very sweet afterward and did not refer to the subject again. But the words had sunk deep. George Wel ton began to have a longing such as he had never known for money. He re doubled his efforts. He took up a set of books to keep at night. But work as ho would, wish as he would, no large success crowned his efforts. Ralph Trenton continued making large sums of money over and above his salary; Elsie continued to boast of it; Flossie continued to envy t^iem. Sometimes at night when he worked over the books, tired and out of heart, George Welton found her eyes fixed on him, a strange mixture of disappoint ment and commiseration in their violet depths. One month he brought home forty extra dollars, earned before and after' work. She thanked him, and ran her slim fingers through the little heap of silver. She could not have realized: how much of patient endeavor the money represented or she would never have made the remark she did. “Ralph made seven hundred this month,” she said. Another man would have given up trying to please her after that. But George Welton plodded ceaselessly on, with thoughts of the time when he could give her everything she wanted. He began to dread' the day he was paid. It was never enough, never half enough. He fell into a childish way of cashing the check before he reached home to make the amount seem larger. He could not bear to deny her any thing, to tell her that hothouse flowers. man- any part I Golden Eagle and White Star A-Grade Vehicles not as rood.

PRESIDENT LINCOLN’S GETTYS BURG SPEECH. On November ?9, 1863, fifty years ago, and a few months after the battle at Gettysburg had been fought, President Lincoln went over to Gettysburg and made a short public address. It was reprinted by request in the Congres sional Record of November 20, 1913. It was described as one of the mas terpieces of English prose, and the com missioner of education in the state of New Jersey sent a copy of the address to every pupil in that state, to be com mitted to memory and to be recited on the afternoon of November 19, 1913. As it is not long, I have concluded to copy the address so that the 100,000 readers of the Semi-Weekly Journal can see it. LINCOLN’S ADDRESS AT GETTYS BURG. “Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated, to the proposition that all men are created equal. “Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing, whether that nation or any nation so conceived and dedicated can long endure; we are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that battlefield as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper we should do this. But in a larger sense, we can not dedicate, we can not consecrate, we can not hallow this ground. “The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. This world will little note or long re member what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished task, which they who fought here have so nobly advanc ed. It is rather for us here to be dedi cated to the great task remaining before us, that from these honored dead we take increased devotion, to which they gave that last full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom and that government of the people, by the people and for the people shall not perish from the earth.” These words are remarkable, because there was no exultation as to victory, and because the battle of Gettysburg was the crises in the war and thereafter there was no signal victory to the southern cause, although there was ad mirable heroic defense. IS THERE A PANIC IN IRON AND STEEL COMING? An humble wage earner that I know very well and who has been tending a steam shovel' for the largest iron ore plant in my part of the country, was walking along the road in front of me as I was taking tqday a little drive in the country. He ^ has a wife and me pathetically. . In glancing today ove^ a late Congres sional Record, I notice some remarks from an Illinois congressman, who said the steel mills in his country were closing down, and his constituents were not able to sell to these steel mills the flur-spar, which had 'brought in good revenue, and the outlook was to wards a suspension of work in steel. Both these facts have come to me in a single day, and the story is the same as to general results. No one in all this great nation desires a financial pa nic any less than I do, and no one hopes for better times more than myself, but I get uneasy when I see a stalwart man who'has nothing but his muscle, walking the big road, idle because the business has shut down. The uses for steel are so many and ever increasing, \ now, that railroads must build steel cars for strength and safety, and great skyscrapers must strength and safety throughout for strength and shafety. Absolute neces sity for progress, is the iron and steel industry. When the digging of iron ore stops it means less steel. When steel mills close down it means less building or use of steel. When steel produce is checked, war ships must get back to wooden hulls, or stop building. In the same connection a representative from Washington state rose to say that the shingTe and lumber mills were closing down in that country. And yet the price of meat is soaring higher. .
