THE HARTWELL SUN, HARTWELL, GA., AUGUST 14, 1925 <THE WHY of SUPERSTITIONS By H. IRV IN Q KINQ d I 1 ■ DEVIL’S DARNING e NEEDLES 1 PKW people realize what a great mass of persistent superstition i underlies our modern culture—how, j though the temples of Isis and Osiris I 1 are crumbling by the banks of the _ Nile; the “stars glimmer through the 1 loops of time” in the Roman coll f spurn, Thor and Odin reign no longer t in the Norseman’s heaven and Stone- J henge Ih-s Druidless upon Salisbury plain, the superstitions evolved in the 1 days when these things belonged to a living present and not to a hoary past remain still with us, descended {■ from all these various sources, ap -3 parently indestructible and forming a . part of the lives of the people in the j present day. s The superstition regarding the ? dragon fly or, as it Is popularly called, the devil’s darning needle, is an in ■ herltance from Norse mythology. In I Scandinavia the dragon fly is called t the troll’s needle, or troll’s spindle. and is regarded by Norwegian chil dren as It is by the American child. . In our name we have simply substi -1 tuted “devil” for "troll.” Who has not, when a child, brushed away with ’ fear a hovering devil’s darning needle “ lest It should "sew his mouth up,” or "sew his ears up"? The superstition J differs hut it is generally the mouth. The mouth is the original form of the superstition and the reason for tills Is apparent. The trolls hated noise . above all tilings—it reminded them ■ of tiie days when they fought with the gods and Thor threw ids hammer I after them. Children are apt to be noisy and thus awaken unpleasant recollections; wherefore the troll's ' needles sew up their mouths to keep them quiet. In Icelandic literature the trolls were giants; but in Norse literature they later became dwarfs, which was probably the result of I their unsuccessful attack upon the i gods. A belief in the trolls still ling I ers in the Scandinavian peninsula. They are the "hill people,” the “little neighbors” who live in the interior of ’ hills and correspond somewhat to the "brownies” of Scotland. They are In general well disposed but easily of fended, especially by any noise, and sadly given to petit larceny. In I America the devil's darning needle superstition is confined entirely to children, but among them is universal. (© by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.)

All thoughts of the stinging defeat dished out to the !ocal team a Grange in the last game last year have d.ed from the hearty of the most ardent admirers in the city and all look with eager e and hopefulness to the opening of the 19 25 season. , * » ♦ • • Os the sixteen men awarded letters ' on the 1924 team seven have left Hartwell High and joined the ranks of previous stars. Four of these were on the line and three in the ; backfield. Skelton, Holland, Hill 1 and Teasley were the linesmen and Massey, Morris and Mann the back field stars. » * » SEVEN MEN LOST First of all comes that brilliant player “Cummins” Skelton, captain and star center of the 1924 grid machine. Skelton probably made more tackles than any other man on the team and was widely known for his level-headedness. He will cer tainly be missed when tEe first call is issued the latter part of August. Teasley and Hill, guards, were two of the best and most consistant play ers on the team. Teasley was injur ed the first of the season and would have stayed out the rest of the season ' had he taken the advice of his phy sicians, but his loyalty to his Alma Mater and his love for the game quickly brought him back into ser vice. Holland and Hill, the first named the running mate of Teasley and the latter a tackle, both played stellar ball throughout the season and did their share in bringing vic tory to the Hartwell eleven. When Massey and Morris entered the class of “have beens” Hartwell High lost two of the best athletes that have ever worn the orange and black colors of H. H. S. For four years Massey and Morris toiled to gether on the football, basketball, baseball and track teams, both be ing four-letter men. Mann completes the list of back field men—and during his football career at Hartwell High made a good reputation. Mann’s “long suit,” A | SCHOOL DAIJS [j A VMKTCHX POIU, f necx ?

These men are: Captain-Elect Magill, Leard, Carter, Shiflet, Frank Skelton, Brown, Johnson, Bailey and Rogers. The two ends will probably be held down by Leard and Magill, a couple of good players on the ’24 team. Shiflet, at tackle, and Brown, at cen ter, are the other letter-men to fill positions. The guard positions will be open—sb will one of the tackles. In the backfield Johnson, Bailey and Rogers are the 1924 varsity members expected to practice. Oth ers of the squad, however, will be | there at the first call. Gainesville, Royston, Braselton, Athens and Lavonia will be on the schedule for the coming season. It might also be possible to arrange a game between Hartwell High and Lanier High, of Macon. In this case the boys on the team would be given a nice trip—but if they do take it, here’s hoping they come out better than last year’s team did with La- Grange. Braselton will be played in Brasel ton for she came here last season for a game. Hartwell owes Ath ens a return game this season; also a return game to Lavonia. Royston and Gainesville will be encountered on the home lair of the orange and black gridders. Coaches Reese and Suddith will ar rive the latter part of August to make plans for opening practices.
