Perhaps a fairer and better trial would be for all the collets to make every senior who is in pood standing eligible for athletics, and keep the rest of the rules as they are for another year. I Ins is not meant to altect the present cases, bat for the future. Then if the rule regarding making seniors eligible worked out well, extend it further.

Enter the shooting season! Already the pilgrimage of Nimrod's hosts has begun. Time tables are In demand. Gun cases and hunters kits are much In evidence In and about the railroad depots. Tales of the woods, the fields and the meadows are. percolating through the atmosphere. The big game hunter has shouldered his trusty rifle, packed his kit and is on the trail of his quarry with visions of wondrous trophies flitting before his eyes. "While near at home thousands of inveterate shooters are fondling their favored shotguns and eagerly waiting the test of thtlr marksmanship on numbers of smaller game. 'Brer" Kabbit is frisking about In the meadows and scrubwood. The whir of quail sounds a welcome note in the brush. Thin lines of wild ducks wend their orderly flight toward the marshes and bays, and every sign points to a season worth while. And there is every reason to believe that this will be1 the best season ever. Thanks to the efforts of the advocates of game conservation and propagation nature has been given a chance to parher reserve. tially replenish n bill has also been The a factor. Due to Its Influence and a tendency of good sportsmanship on the hunters to forego spring part of many kinds of game have been shooting, all multiplying rapidly. One of the best evidences of this is shown by the increased number of ducks that have appeared on the scene. In fact, the bays and marshes in some sections are literally black with them. During the last few weeks the writer has seen innumerable flocks of these timid game birds flitting across the sky. From some of the states where the deer season Is open comes wonderful tales of shooting, and the few exhibits that have come under our notice have borne antlers well fit for the ornamentation of any den, to say nothing of the well nourished, well rounded carcasses that give promise of as tender and juicy a piece of venison as has ever tickled the palate of an epicure.

ARMSTRONG. the man in any field barely reaches the pinnacle of success he WHEN about lias time for a few deep breaths of tho exalted atmosphere and then must relinquish his place to the next man in line. Some ousted leaders, feeling that the inevitable is happening, beat an orderly retreat. Others seek to retain their position in the face of tho oncoming throng of ambitious aspirants and this generally spells an undignified rout for thm. For no matter how unproductive or unattractive the field may be, it will attract many followers, a certain number of whom will possess the fitting attributei for an occupancy of the ultimate goal. Ambitious to realize their aim, these men clamor close on each other's heels endeavoring to unseat the person occupying the position just above. This is especially true in the tennis field, where the first twenty players in the country are all striving for Np. 1 place in the rating. Of these twenty men perhaps six, or possibly seven, possess the necessary attributes for occupancy. One of the quorum reaches the top of the ladder only to be forced in a short while to give way to the man below him, and so it goes on. But Maurice E. McLoughlin is a young man in the prime of his strength and power. He should not have been forced to relinquish the goal this year. Perhaps five or six years hence an orderly retreat would be advisable, but for a man in his twenties to be pushed from the top position when he possesses all the essential qualities for a firm holding of the same, certainly permits the raising of the question as to a suitable explanation covering the cause of such a dethronement.
