QUAKERS

TO MEET

THE INDIANA TEAM Great Field and'Track Meet To Be Held on Reid Field Saturday. Captain Brown and his bunch of thinly clads have concluded preparations for what promises to be the best track and field meet of the season on the local field. Although Purdue is to be met here later the meet with Indiana Saturday is regarded by many as being the most important because the Crimson and the Quakers are so evenly matched that the meet will be one continuous fight from the first crack of the gun. In comparing the records of the two teams made last Saturday in meets ,ln which they participated it appears that Captain Brown, of Earlham, has a slight advantage over Bose, of Indiana !in the sprints. Brown's time being j about 1-5 of a second better in each iof the three events in which the two will participate, the 100 yard dash, the 220 yard dash and the quarter mile. In the mile, Indiana seems to have the better of the argument. But fin both the low and the high hurdles (the Earlham men made better records last Saturday than did the I. TJ. representatives in these events. The last I Saturday's record of Earlham in the I half mile is also much better than the 'Indiana record, but since I. U. took the (first three places in that event in itheir meet with the Indianapolis Y. M. C. A. last Saturday it is probable that fthey were not pushed by their opponents and so did not run In their best 'time. In the field events the honors seX Bbe divided about evenly. Stanley, of irlham is counted upon to take care . the discus, shot and hammer, while Johnson, a Richmond product, should ;xnake a good showing in the broad Jjump. Earlham's pole vaulters and .high jumpers do not seem to be quite up to those of L U. but great improvejment has been made this week and it Hs thought that there will be close -competition In each of these events. The Earlham team is in good shape jfind is looking forward td taking the

GIRL ALWAYS WEAK

Tells How She Became Strong and Vigorous j "When I see pale, puny children on the street I always wonder what their parents are doing, if anything,to build up their strength," said a well dressed man the other day. Mary Lang, of Altoona, Pa., was one such child. Her story is told in one of her own letters. 'Ever since childhood," she says, "I have been weak and delicate and my blood has been thin and poor. Many different forms of treatment did me no good but last spring I took Vinol and now I am so much stronger and better that I want you to know it. I don't know when I have felt so well and vigorous as I have since taking Vinol." We only wish that every weak, rundown sickly person would realize that Vinol is the one best remedy to enrich the blood, build up the body and put tlte glow of health in pale cheeks. "Your money back if you are not pleased" is the way we sell Vinol, so you can see we believe in it. Leo H. Fine, druggist, Richmond, Indiana.

Mount Etna. Mount Etna is one of the great volcanoes of the earth. It i great in size, great in activity, great In beauty. In size it would cover the entire metropolitan district of New York and the surrounding counties. Its height is 11,000 feet above sea level. As to its power, one of these eruptions some centuries ago killed 80,000 people, which is probably more than Vesuvius has ever done in all its existence as a volcano, not excepting the great eruption of 79 A. D., which destroyed the cities of Hercnlaneum and Pompeii. As to its beauty, this Is also very difficult to describe. It is teeming with life, animal and vegetable, and is snow covered one-half the year. The other half it is bare to its very summitChristian Herald.

MOTHER'S DAY PROCLAMATION

To the people of Richmond: It being the custom throughout the United States to observe the second Sunday of May as Mother's Day, and for every man on tnat day to wear a flower In honor of his mother, I have been requested to ask for general compliance with the suggestion. Therefore in pursuance of this custom and as Mayor of the City of Richmond, Indiana. I here recommend that by general consent, Sunday, May 12, 1912, be set apart as Mother's Day and that upon that day every man and every boy In the City of Richmond and every visitor Nvithin our gates wear a flower in honor of his mother. And I suggest that the day be made a special occasion for sending flowers to the Invalids in Richmond homes, to tne sick In hospitals and to the orphans In public and denominational Institutions. It is eminently fitting that in this, as In other worthy movements, that Richmond take the lead. Let us hope that the first Mother's Day observed in this beautiful city will be so successful and inspiring that other cities, in future years, will follow the example. Witness my hand as Mayor of the City of Richmond, Indiana, this ninth day of May, A. D. 1912. W. W. Zimmerman, Mayor.

GREEN TURTLES.

The Youngsters Have a Perilous Time After Being Hatched. Concerning the great turtles of the southwest Indian ocean a traveler aays: "The cbelonian. or green turtle (Chelone mydas. Is an animal of considerable economic Importance to th atoll, for it still occurs In the vast hordes which are so often described by early voyagers In the tropics. There appear to be two distinct groups one resident and small la numbers, the otber migratory and visiting the atoll to breed In numbers impossible to estimate. "The latter arrives In December, and from then to April the sea seems alive with turtles. The females seek the small sand beaches and then ascend them with the rising tide, pushing themselves laboriously above high tide mark. Holes are then dug in the sand by means of the fore flippers until a satisfactory one is obtained, and the eggs, 200 in number, are buried, the turtle returning to sea immediately. "After forty days the eggs hatch almost simultaneously, and the young

turtles dig their way up out of the

sand and go down to the sea in along procession, in the course of which they offer an easy prey to their enemies, the frigate birds and herons. Once In the sea. sharks and otber large fish eat them, and only 10 per cent reach maturity." Chicago News.

The Parsees of India. It was at a point near the ancient city of Surat that the Parsees first landed in India when driven out of Persia by their Mohammedan conquerors eleven centuries ago. Few things are more remarkable than the manner in, which this small community has retained its religion and racial characteristics unchanged during that long period. The peculiar style of headdress worn by the Parsees is said to have been made compulsory by the Hindu king of India when the Parsees first obtained refuge in that country, and they have used it ever since. Today the Pf.rsees are the leading commercial nation of India.

Told Him In Few Words. A man once wrote to the Rev. C. H. Spurgeon, the famous preacher, saying that he had heard he smoked and could not believe It to be true. Would Mr. Spurgeon write and tell him if It really was so? The reply was: "Dear Sir I cultivate my flowers and burn my weeds. Yours truly, C. H. Spurgeon."

' BASEBALL SIGNS. Their Importance la Much Greater Than Their Number. Among the players we do not use the word 'signal. With us it is a sign.' There are not as many "signs' used on a ball club as the public would believe. Of course the catcher must "sign" the pitcher for every ball that he throws. That Is to prevent confusion or, as we say, to keep from "crossing each other." The catcher has a sign for a curve ball, a fast ball and a slow one. To ball players all curve balls, such as the drop and the outcurve, are called "a curve." The catcher gives the same sign for any one of them. We do not call a ban that jumps "in" a curve. Ball players do not recognize the incurve. That is called a fast ball. Any ball thrown by a right handed pitcher with sufficient speed will Jimp inward to a slight degree. The outcurve and drop are unnatural curves, and the ball must be spun in an unnatural manner to get that peculiar 'break." The only other "sign" of importance is the one the batter gives to the runner when he intends to hit the balL If he wants the runner to start as be swings (the hit and run play) he glTes him a certain sign. Thepe are any number of signs used for this play. Sometimes the batter gives It by rubbing his hand over the small end of the bat. Again, he may give It by knocking the dust from his shoes with the big end of tbe bat. John J. McGraw in Metropolitan Magazine.

Street Stories

Jean, the four-year-old daughter of a well known attorney, went to Sunday school for the first time last Sunday. The lesson was on King Solomon. After the lesson had concluded the teacher asked If anyone could give her & definition of the word "king." The right hand of little Jean shot up Quickly. I know, I know." she declared with confidence. "Well, what la it, Jean." the teacher queried. "It's an ace." was the answer.
