The Newport Express and Standard pays this unsolicited testimonial to one of its subscribers, who has failed to pny np: "He has not one excuse for not paying. Xo sick excuse, no pover ty excuse, no reasonable excuse. It is merely a perverse wilfulness on his part, a mulish hoggishness that a news paper must shoulder and carry him for nothing." Certainly that subscriber lias no plausible excuse from the tvntempo rary's standpoint. And some of our citizens think a bucket brigade is ample protection against fires! Would you think of nawing out lumber, today, with an old up-and-down saw? Xo! Well, it's fully as up-to-date as fighting fire with a bucket brigade. Better get a fire engine before it's too late.

When President Bnekham of the Uni versity of Vermont delivers an address to his students on athletics it may be taken as a sign that the athletic side of college ;Lre is becoming of not the least consequence, certainly. In his talk at the opening of the year at the state university President Bueklmm displayed a fine discrimination between the proper and the improper use of athletics. His definition of the two kinds are worthy of notice,,--lie said: "It is athlet ic3 as sport, us developing astd manifesting the. sense 'of physical 'powers, that exhiliarating sense of virile power, which prompts men to climb mountains and swim torrents and dare dangerous seas together with that spirit or rivalry which brings this sense of power to a test and a realization; all this is manly and honorable and goes to the making of a complete manhood. But there is a bad side of athletics and it is pervading our institutions of learn ing and must be challenged nnd put out and kept out. This spirit comes in when athletics becomes a profession, a money making business, leading to fraud and trickery and base practices of many kinds. So long as the prevailing spirit is 'let us win if we can by fair -and honorable means,' all will go well, but when it is 'let us win by all means, fair or foul,' then the game becomes demoralizing and it hurts men not only in their sports, but through and through. Every college, this college must decide, and quite largely the nnder-graduates must decide, which of these two spirits shall prevail." Xo college or university can afford to rest supinely and allow its athletic side to lapse into that attitude of winning at any cost. And unless the college au FARMERS Did you ever think of the advantages a check account affords a perfect receipt an easy method of making change a complete cash account?

There is probably no college in the country which has not at some time or other had to deal with this commercial aspect. Host of them have settled it satisfactorily by elim inating professionalism entirely. The moral tone of the college which con dones trickery and underhanded meth ods in athletics is lowered, with the attendant effects on its students. WILLIAMSTOWN.
