Nom de Guerre. The Once Under DEATH COMETH SOON OR is interesting to note the changes in the prowess of football teams from season to season. When Bo McMillan and his Texas buddies were playing for Centre college half a dozen years ago, when the great Harvard was defeated, 6 to 0, who dreamed that the Praying Colonels would, so soon, be relegated almost to the prep school class? Five years ago the University of California had possibly THE greatest football team ever assembled, this is a big order, and cannot be definitely settled of course. Still it was a pretty good team. It whip.

After the first game of the season with Southern California which resulted 14 to 0, until the last with Stanford, it met no opposition worthy the name, though playing the best the Pacific coast had to offer. Stanford to the surprise of Brick Muller and cohorts, to 26. to 0. That was then Now, it is reported that "to the surprise of all," California de feated St.

But that which "the applause of listening senates to command," or the applesauce, and is therefore more delectable to the appetite, is the manner which South Carolina teams have sprung into prominence. Take the university, Except for the great year of 1912, when the state championship was easily won, Clemson defeated, North Carolina tied, Virginia "held" to 19 to 0. around that time the state university of the Palmetto state was not in the class with those of other commonwealths. In 1918 North Carolina won something like 48 to 0.

Virginia did likewise. Georgetown about that time rolled up somewhere around 68-or 83. Then followed a queer medley of organizations until sever years ago-1920 -when 12 men broke the Hindenburg line of the Clemson jinx to win 3 to 0, thanks to the unerring toe of Tatum Gressette-the first victory in eight years- over a team that outweighed them 30 pounds to the man. Since then, with five years under Sol Metzger, Carolina has steadily mounted till there is at least an even chance with other state university teams, Other state teams in this same time have made pbenomenal progress, in great measure due to the pace set by Metzger with which they had to keep up to remain in the same class. High schools have made even far greater strides than the colleges.

It may be that teams in other states have greatly fallen in strength and lustre as have Centre and California. Certainly the "Big Three" Princeton, Yale and Harvard (we separate Princeton and Harvard in order to prevent a fight -even in print) have tumbled from the pedestal entitling them to the epithet. "Change and decay in all around I For South Carolina to acquire the top and stay, there is "a consummation devoutly to be wished." Is it "to be or not to be?

You know the remark; "How DOES he do Of course this satire but it serves the purpose nevertheless. It is a very difficult proposition and yet, withal, quite simple.

The first rule is to keep quiet; that is, say nothing. This insures peace. The next is to get as sleepy while sober as possible so as to be foolish without being maudlin, Next it is necessary to crack the knee on an open desk-drawer and get it (or them) all out of the system before starting. This is absolutely necessary.

On the sixth day she was removed to the family mausoleum. On the seventh day the sexton went into the mansoleum to lay flowers on the casket and sweep the foor.

for the day before had been quite rainy and the shoes of those following the distingushed woman to her final rest dropped considerable mud. While sweeping, the old sexton heard a weak, far-off sounding voice call, "Help, help, help." The sexton could not account for the voice unless it were from the dead and he soon WAR without the walls of the mausoleum. Arguing to himself the voice had been entirely his imagination, he finally took courage and returned to his sweeping. Finishing his sweeping, he walked -to the casket to strew the flowers over the Again he heard that weak, far-off voice. calling, "Help, help, help." He was standing directly over the glass of the lid, and looking into the face the supposedly of dead woman he saw her lips quiver.

The lid was hurriedly removed by him before he summoned assistance, Mra. Lee was taken from the mausoleum to the house, where she soon recovered and lived to a ripe old age. Fifteen months after the incident Robert Edward Lee was born. BUCKEYES TRIMMED BY NORTHWESTERN Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 15 (By; A.
