This week Coach Vail will put his Quaker football squad through a series of hard practices so that they will "be In top notch form for the DePauw game, which takes p'ace Saturday at Greencastle. The pound beating Earl-. ham administered to Duller last Satur-1 day has greatly encouraged the Earl- j bam rooters and they are confident
that their team with a little improvement will have a fair chance to defeat the Methodists. In case DePauw does win it will he by a small margin. Win j or lose Earlham should score in this j game. 1 What the big Earlham line will do j against the attacks of the heavy De- t Pauw backs remains to be seen. The light Butler backs with their poor systern of attack failed to penetrate the Quaker line, but against a strong, sys-: tematlc attack as DePauw Is known to ; have the Quaker lino may develope unknown weaknesses. In Hancock and Bruner. Earlham j has two ends who will compare favor-1 ably with ends on any secondary col-! lege team in the state. DePauw will ; find it difficult to execute plays out-, aide the tackles. Hancock is devel- j oping Into a remarkably good t-nd. j He la light but a hard tackier and an Intelligent, aggressive player. Brun-; ner Is also an aggressive player and a ' sure tackier. In the open field he is , not as good as Hancock as he Is not as fast as this player. Good Back Field. Harrell, Wann, Geyer and Elliott , form a good back field. The first three : are heavy men but they get over the ; ground well. Elliott at quarter runs ' his team well and gets the ball off j fast. Every man on tho Quaker squad i Is in remarkably good condition and ; Coach Vail seems to be satisfied with I his team with the exception of his j line, which ho still regards as a doubt-j ful quantity. Good hard work this i week should whip the forward.-? into shape to meet the hard attack of tiu! DePauw backs. The Quakers l'enr j J ticker, the groat DePauw drop kicker.

There is a proverbial phrase si3nifytng that the wife is master in the household, by which It is intimnted that "she wears the breeches." The phrase is both odd and common and is only half understood by modern explanations, but in mediaeval story we learn how "she" first put in her claim to wear this particular article of dress. ! A French writer of the thirteenth i century (Hugues Plaucelles) relates some of the adventures of a couple whose household was not entirely har monious. Sire Ilaines was the husband; Dame Anleuse, the wife. After a quarrel one evening Sire Ilalns said. "Early In the morning I will take off my breeches and lay them down in the middle of the court and the one who can win them will be acknowledged , the master r mistress of the house." j Dame Anleuse accepted the challenge The battle was fought the next ! morning It was a long battle, and it ! was bloody. At the end Sire Ilcins i bora off the breeches, but the good ; dame had convinced the world that she was entitled to wear them in her own house. The Accommodating Spanish Cow. It was the first cow we had seen In Spain, and she had every right to be tbe haughty creature that she was.

The Methodists returned home Sunday pleased with their showinsr. coach li row u is somewhat worried over his team's crippled condition, as their showing Saturday will decide an important contest. The "Little Giants" will be in the state race and only Kariham is shutting DePauw off from the secondary championship. The game which will be played against the Q iakers here Saturday should he one of the season's best and if the Methodists only recover their form in this week's practices they should have no trouble in walking off with the state's second honors.

Basketball and Polo Games Garfield School. at the Schedules have been made out for basket ball and polo games at the Garfield school and the gymnasium is the scene of contests every evening at the close of school. The high school freshmen and independent teams have asked for games with the (Jarfielders but as yet there seems to be but little chance to accommodate them as Garfield is too b".sy with her own athletics to have contests with outsiders.

Charles Monselet, a Frenchman of ltter3, published a comic "scientific dictionary" for the benefit of children, who found no little amusement In his odil accounts of things in the animal world which were perfectly familiar to them, but which were described in a rather fantastic way in M. Moaselet's book. The editor of a certain scientific journal, however, was much surprised and shocked at M. Monselet's Ignorance when he took up the book, and he wrote an article about it in his paper, which ran as follows: "A certain M. Monselet has published a dictionary for the use of children, which contains definitions showing the most extraordinary ignorance, such as the following: "'Sardine A little fish without any head which lives in oiL' As if a fi.h could live without a head and in oil! "Another definition: " 'Parrot A bird somewhat resembling the pigeon, generally green when it is not red or yelljw or blue. Cocka toos sometimes live to be a hundred length of their life.' "Now, it happens that the parrot is not a pigeon at all and never has the colors that M. Monselet gives to him, and. In shart, this M. Monselet knows no more of natural history than be has grains of common sense. NOTICE.

How Foundations of Great Steel Structures Are Built. j The foundations for the great steel structures are built by means of caissons in which the men can work under a great pressure of air. It Is a very j interesting sight to watch them, and j the best of it is that any one may see them at close range from an adjoining sidewalk. The caisson is a hollow steel cylinder open at the bottom and Just ( large enough to permit a man to work, j The workman climbs down a ladder In ' this tube and digs away the earth at the bottom. As the earth is taken away the steel tube Is gradually low ered. The earth is taken out by a ! bucket, which is lowered and raised by a tall derrick at one side. As the caisson sinks, air Is pumped into the ' compartment containing the man. This is to force back any water or dirt that ; might fill the hole from the outside as fast as tbe workman removes it from within Th TrTir r,f tht !r rtf. tea so great that a man can work bet an hour or so at a time. At tbe top of the caisson is a steel cylinder with an air tight door at either end. which serves as a kind of vestibule to the tube below. When one of the caisson workers starts to go to work be opens the door or lid at the top and climbs In. when the opening is once more tightly closed. This door or lid is air tight After the opening to the outer air has been closed the workman opens the door at the bottom of this steel compartment and lets In compressed air from the caisson below. It takes a few minutes to become accustomed to breathing this atmosphere, for the heavy air makes the bead ring. As soon as the workman can do so he climbs down Into the funnel below, closing the lower door of the steel anteroom as he does so. All this must be done In the dark. If tbe workman wishes to signal the outer world he may do so by striking the steel sides of his narrow prison with his shovel. He usually signals in this way when the bucket is to be raised or lowered. Frances Arnold Collins la Et Nicholas.
