John 3: 111. V .i t. Sometimes we think the knocker is rixht in what he says,' about his town. If it weren't that kind of a town, jt wouldn't tolerate him. ' Jhe French chamber of deputies has "rejected ii- lottery plan for paying: the public debt. That's one step' toward abandonment of sidestepping financial matters. - ' Roger Babson says that the country is due for another period of wild speculation and blue sky investment Unit will rival the post-war riot. Wo doubt that it will reach such proportions, chiefly because there are -very few people, comparatively, who have any surplus to speculate with. In 1919, and 1920 many agricultural districts were ripe for the high-powered salesman with his bogus oil promotions, his wild land values, and his vague industrial stocks. To day the farmer is too busy trying to pay off the indebted ness, brought on by the recent agricultural depression to bother with speculation. In the metropolitan centers and in eastern industrial districts prosperity may be such as to warrant the period Babson anticipates, but ' we' won't be bothered out in this direction. ' Too many people have learned that permanent prosperity comos quickest by thrift tind HarcfwOrk.'-'""'' .

I If tl I'll I THE PASSING OF "RED" GRANGK. , "Ked'' Grange, whose name is a by-word with everyone interested in the sport world, played professional football in Chicago Thanksgiving ' before '10,000 spectators and earned about $'.20,000 , for his time and effort. 'r lie will play again a time or two before his name fades from the sport horizon and will probably collect an ordinary small fortune before the year ends. ' That Grange has turned, professional is a source of dis appointment to the thousands of followers who have thrilled iit his college gridiron accomplishments but it's his own business. There ; is nothing to prevent his playing pio fessional football, nothing to require that he finish college, nothing to demand his remaining an amateur hero instead of becoming a professional nobody. It was Hod's choice nd he decided . in favor of money. : Maybe thousands of other good football players would like to have the same opportunity, and the '.same fame and record that made the opportunity possible. Hut we doubt it. Somehow, the fact that Grange quits college to collect a few thousands in professional football, that he grabs the chuncc to capitalize the name that his university and his teammates made possible, makes us feel that Grango isn't quite as great a football player as we had thought, that he isn't half as true a sport as he has been pictured. :. The same rules govern prolessioiial football as college football, but there is all the difference in the world be tween seeing a man make a brilliant play, stage a sportae ulur run througn an opposing team, and win a game when he is doing it for twenty thousand dollars and when lie is doing it for the love of his school and the glory of its name. Grange is the greatest football player who ever Irod a gridiron, or so all sport experts would have us lie lieve, and yet there are thousands of football followers in the country who wouldn't walk across the street to see ' range play today, knowing that ho was motivated only by a desire for quirk money and that the contest was staged purely for the sake of meiYenary profit. Kootball differs from professional baseball in that respect much of its charm lies in the rivalry of two colleges, in the color mill spirit of youth, in the fact that it is on the level and a true sporting event amateur. The name of Grange was tine to be conjured with only a week ago, one that would have long remained in the hearts of those who love ath letic ability. Today it is a name that is fast fading into oblivion.
