COLLEGEVILLE.

Sunday evening, the C. L. S. rendered. a very interesting program. The afterpiece, “The Uninvited Guest,” was the surprise of the evening, and was the source of much amusement. Over Saturday and Sunday State Senator and Mrs. Robert E. Proctor, of Elkhart, were the guests of Cornelius Smith at the college. The senator was prevailed upon to deliver an address to the students. After recalling pleasant memories of his own college days at Notre Dame, he gaVenn interesting and instructive talk on socialism, its dangers, and what is expected of every good American citizen toward the unrooting of that terrible menace of American institutions. The .biggest basketball surprise of the season was pulled off when the Rensselaer high school team played their return game in the college gymnasium. The Collegians had gotten into the habit of piling up abnormal scores on the home floor. The local high school held them to the lowest figures that they have been able to snatch from opponents, when they suffered their defeat by the low score of 13-3. The only consolation that the college players were able to get from their victory was the fact that they did not give their opponents a field goal. Both teams were sorely handicapped by the absence of only one appearing on the college quintette and not many more in the high school line-up. In the curtain raiser the college juniors, though greatly inferior in stature and weigh’, won an easy victory by the score of 46-6. This has been one of the most successful seasons in the history of basketball at St. Joseph’s. In all 16 games were played, and nearly all were with strong teams. Of these contests were defeats, and only one by anything but a safe-margined score. Moreover, no games were lost on the Lom.e floor, and in every game, except in that with Monticello Co. C., the score was greater than threefold that of the opponents. In the matter of scoiing points McArdle leads, getting a total of 149; Beckman is a close second with 146. The total score of the Varsity was 494, that of their opponents, 282. The basketball togs have been put away with great glee. And here is hoping that the base ball season may bring equally good results.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

The basketball team concluded the season last Friday afternoon in a game with St. Joe, played on the collegr floor. Although the final count was against Rensselaer, 'they made a very creditable showing and at times uncovered some excellent team work. The collegians were hardly satisfied with the showing of their team as they expected them to run up a score of fifty or more, whereas the final score was 13 to 3. The sophomore geometry class has been doing some excellent work. They will be able to finish the year’s work by the beginning of spring vacation. Rev. Harper gave the members of the high school an interesting talk Wednesday morning. Superintendent I. N. Warren took charge of the freshman zoology class Friday afternoon during the absence of Mr. Lee, who was called away on account of the serious illness of his father. , -■ ...„. The senior Latin class finished the fifth book of Vergil’s Aeneid this week Before taking up book six, some tim? will be spent on the study of mythology, One. week of 1 spring vacation will be given the first week in April.

The “Big Four” had a serious passenger wreck at Newcastle Tuesday night. The twenty-four-hour New York train crashed into the head-dhd of an extra freight. John C. Milam, of Indianapolis, the freight engineer, and a tramp named, Reno E. Cronkhite, of Portland, Oreg., were killed art three persons severely injured and several others slightly injured. The freight train had been standing on the main track for 30 minutes waiting for the passenger train to pass. The conductor understood that the passenger train was to run on a different track. The freight engineer was fast asleep in his cab when the passenger train crashed intothe freight. All the doctors of Greencastle were called to the scene of the wreck and the DePauw students were also pressed into service to act as aids ajid as nurses.

An Old Time Favorite.

Lafayette Journal. Muncie is always to the front with a claim when honor of any kind is being passed around. Muncie now claims the authorship of the celebrated “hound song,” which was supposed to have been born in Missouri. The Muncie claim is to the effect that a small boy, years ago, wrote the song as a protest to the abuse heaped on his “houn dawg.” But Muncie is slow. This song was not discovered in the Ozark mountains and it was not born in Muncie. Old residents of Lafayette testify that it was a favorite in this part of the state during the old canal days. The average canal driver had a hound to keep him company. As he trudged along behind his team he would whistle, or sing, the song;— Every time I come to town The boys start kickin’ my dowg aroun’; Hakes no difference if he is a houn’, They gotta quit kickin’ my dawg aroun’. This song was said to be the production of a man named Kendrick, who lived between Lafayette and Delpho and who was a character of the canal days. He was reputed to be the best fiddler in the state and he was in demand at the dances. He had many tunes in his repertoire, which he claimed as his own, and the “houn’ song” was one of them. Muncie should go a little slow about claiming credit for musical achievements.

BALDHEADS More Women are Bald Than Men, Says Authority. Thia is a startling statement but it's true according to an article published in a standard magazine this year. One thing is certain, PARISIAN SAGE will surely prevent baldness by stopping the hair from falling, but it won’t grow hair after the head is bald. Ladies, look’after your hair, destroy the dandruff germs with PARISIAN SAGE and dandruff will disappear. It stops scalp itch over night and is guaranteed to be the most refreshing, refined and agreeable hair dressing that’ can be obtained. Sold by B. F. Fendig and druggists all over America for 50 cents. “My hair was falling out, and I was troubled With itching scalp. I received no benefit until I tried PARISIAN SAGE.” —Mrs. George Thunder, R. F.

Knights of the Square Table

SOMEONE HAS SAID that there are only five original stories in the world. All the rest are imitations. At all- events, old tales and modern happenings fit like a hand and its glove. For example: Here are* two tales, an old and a new. You may not like either of them very much, but you will admit, at all events, that they fit like a hand and its glove. 11. There was once a man Arthur. He became the head of a corporation of one hundred and fifty men, known as the Knights of the Round Table, The business of this corporation was to do deeds of valor for the benefit of others, That was mhny centuries ago. One day, there appeared in front of a church an anvil in which a sword was imbedded. On the anvil were these words: The man who pulls out this sword shall be a king.—— Men came from every direction to try their strength, but no one succeeded in drawing the sword from the anvil. Then it happened that a knight named Sir Kay left home one morning and discovered later on, that he' had forgotten his.sword. He called his younger brother, Arthur, and asked him to run back and get it. Arthur, loath to go so far, remembered having heard about the sword sticking in an anvil In front of the church nearby; and, thinking that it might do, he and a few nobles rode there. The nobles said nothing, but smiled, for they knew how many had tried their hands on it. Arthur grasped the sword and pulled It out, without trouble. Then he thrust it into the anvil again and pulled it out, time after time. But no one else could do it. So to make this story short, when thereafter the knights met at the Round Table, Arthur sat in the king’s seat. 111. ‘ Billy Mason was the oldest of a ffemily of seven children. He was fifteen. His father was dead, and his mother took in washing, and generally sang as she stood at the tub Of course, the Mason family, like the knights, used to gather about ths table. One night when they cams together, after a week of nothing 4i the tub, the table was bare. So was the cupboard. Mother Mason lookec at each of the children. When shs turned her eyes to Billy he saw tha> there were tears in them. So, to make this part of the storj short, they went to bed without sup per, and got up the next morning ts no breakfast. Billy set out early. His health} young body reminded him of stnt thing: that he felt hungry. But hii memory reminded him of two things One was’ the tea.s in his mother’i eyes, and the other was that every body at home must be hungry. In the course of his wanderings Billy came to Father Kelly’s churct in St. Peter’s lane. Being weary, h< sat down on the top step just back o: the big stone pillar. There he fel to thinking about what he could d< to help his mother and the children. As he sat there he heard a commo tion up the street, to his right. Look ing beyond the pillar in that dlrec tion he saw a horse and carriage rushing down the street, in a crazj zig-zag way, toward him. Billy knew that a horse had no business running around town in any such manner. He noticed, too, that everyone got out of its way as quickly at. possible. So, without thinking it out very carefully, he concluded that nc one tried to stop the horse because they were all expecting him to do it When the horse approached the church, it turned into the open space in front of the steps. Billy leaped to his feet, his plan all figured out to a second, and jumped from the step to the horse's head. He hung on with all his might, the horse swinging him back and forth. Then it stopped, looked at Billy, let its ears fall, and rubbed its nose on his coat. The coachman and the - policeman and all the other knights came up. Billy stepped bach and looked into the carriage. A little baby was lying on the floor, crying softly, and rubbing its eyes. Billy picked up the baby and carried it -up the steps to the place where he had been sitting, Lack of the pillar. Then he began to play with it, as he had learned to do with his younger brothers and sisters at home. Just then Father Kelly came out of the church. The policeman raised his hat and pointed to Billy Mason. Then he told Father Kelly what Billy had done. The good man came up the steps again, patting Billy on the head, said: “You’re a fine lad. Wait here a bit.” Meanwhile a lady rushed into the crowd, pushed men and boys aside and looked into the carriage. When she saw it was empty she nearly fainted. But the policeman said something to her, and led her up the. steps and back of the pillar. Billy Mason had the baby in his lap. Father Kelly was kneeling on the stone step and laughing, while the baby was trying to pull off his like the happiest person in the world, like the happiets person in the world He probably was, next to the baby. The lady knelt on the step beside Father Kelly and in front of Billy Mason. She took the baby in her arms and said all manner of things to it that no one but a baby can understand. Then Father Kelly began to tell ber wnat Billy had done. At the mention of his name Billy slid off the steps and was proceeding to disappear, when Father Kelly grabbed him by the coat collar and brought him back again. They talked quite a while up there back of the pillar. When they came down the policeman opened the carriage door, holding the baby while the lady entered. Father Kelly pushed BiUy in last. Then they drove away. To the lady’s house? No; to Billy Mason’s. 7

What Real Love Is

Love letters! Well, if 1 wanted tc get hold of a bunch of real love letten do you think I’d hunt through the mail of a little elgh teen-year-old pretty mist with a head full of vanity and a hear! tall—of herself? No, indeed. I’d hunt around in the personal effects of that good, comfy, middle-aged woman you see down there in the centre , aisle. Pretty? Not a bit. Lovable, yes, and loving, too, mid wen beloved if the expression of her happy eyee tells anything like the truth. She’s away from her husband just now. The curtain is down. What’s that she is reading between the acts? Not the bill of the play. It’s a letter, typewritten, too. Don’t you dare to slip a glance at what is written on that unromatic office paper. It is very likely a love letter, and a love letter that means something, too, little Miss Incredulous, something that you’ll nev--er know a thing about till you’ve been married ten years and found out what the real love of a real man means. The man who wrote that letter to that woman doesn't love her because he thinks she’s pretty, or because she was the “swellest dresser at the hotel” all Summer, or because “all the other fellows are after her.” He loves her because she’s herself, and he knows It, and he realizes that she’s the one best friend he has in all the world, and he knows that she doesn’t care whether he’s as handsome as he was once or as gay or as rich as he might be, or as big a success in the business world as the man she might have married ten years ago and didn’t. He knows that the woman who looks so ordinary and commonplace to you and to me would cut her right hand off at the wrist to save him a day’s real sorrow, and he knows that she’ll stand by him through thick and through thin and love him all the harder for all the trouble that comes co them together. What! look at you—seriously, little Miss Sweet and Twenty! Pshaw, don’t you delude yourself. A man of that age isn’t looking for trouble; he’s looking for comfort and for confidence, end for trust, not for sensations. He has had all of them long ago. He is looking not for uneasy vanity, but for love, real love, love that means something besides a bunch of roses and a couple of theatre tickets, and he has found it, and found it right there with that ordinary looking woman across the aisle, and that’s what he’s telling her in that prosaic-looking letteMr What do you suppose that man writes of in this particular letter? The beautiful eyes of the woman or her little fluttering white doves of hands? Not a bit in the world. About the time the boy was sick and the woman stood over him and nursed him back to life and hope and health? Why, when she did that the man saw her day after day in a faded aid wrapper when she hadn’t time to even think about her hair, much less to “do it.” And he doesn’t remember a thing about how she looked, except the expression in her eyes when she told him that the boy would live because she intended to make him live in spite of all the doctors and all the prophecies on earth. ~ And he did live, the boy with hii father’s eyes and the mouth like his mother when she was a girl, and every time the man looks at that boy, ths pride of his heart, he thinks of ths mother who bore him. Love her? Why, poor little Mlai Fuss and Feathers, you may knon something about some such love soms day. I hope you will. You look a sweet, little thing enough. But now. why you couldn’t even spell the firm letter of its name. Love letters from the' married maa to his wife! Laugh about them al y<m want to, ladles and gentlemen « the vaudeville sketches. We’ll laugh too, and while we’re laughing weT lay our hands against a simple little dress and pretend to be fastening i collar or something—just to hear th, rustle of the paper under there —th< letter from the husband at home. The real love letter from the rea sweetheart. That’s why we can affon to laugh so hard at your jokes abou the married man and the woman hi really loves.
