mi8Hi(4ier Sharp had a very good reason
for making the objection on account of

therefore Ve are entitled to a full under- ;

The statement made by Judge Bar-;

explain anything except in regard to
agreement between the government and
state in order to the improvement of the

Now the county bowl money was uot

the churgeH of Commissioner Sharp are

then there should he. a thorough iuves-!

..Moigontown, West Va., Dec. 21. The
itinerary ' of tbo AV-ost Virginia iiniver-
sity football u,uad on its move to tJic
Pacific coast to nlnv Gonzaga-univer
sity at San lgo on Christmas, Day has
not'yet been fully decided upon, but it
is ce rtain that no ntteinpt i to be made
by Coach Spears to acclimate bis grid
ders: Tentative plans call for the Jtoun
tahieer squad to leave here on Tuesday
nisht, fie nineteenth, und iuakc a rush
trip across the continent, arriving at
Kan liego on Saturday afternoon. De
cember 'XI, just forty-eight hours before
the kick-off. A. light workout will be put
on oq Saturday afternoon soou after ar
rival, and on Sunday the players' will
be taken on an excursion iulo the coun
try, with u short "hike" for exercise
and that will end the preparation for
the East-West game. There will be no
workouts enroute, although the railroad
rfRipanies have been asked to provide, an
itii t rary showing all "water stations"
and junction points, so that the men can.
whenever feasible, slip into a pair of
football shoes and some light equipment,
jump off the train and take a light
signal drill, or perhaps only some set
ting up exercises. Nate Cnrtmell, the
trainer extraordinary, aud Dr.- Spears
have had several conferences on this
pr.int aud they believe that. it. will be
possible to keep the men in shape by
some such program.
This plan .in tit variance with those
followed by a number of the eastern
t?ams thai havg visited the West. Ohio
State, 'Harvard, Pennsylvania and others
of former years, as well as Pitt and
IV nn State this year.'fiave spent several
days on the coast in au endeavor to be
come .acclhiiated, but Dr. Speara w&s
out with the Dartmouth team in 100,
at wliicU time they . pluyed a game in
Iktston on one Saturday, boarded a train
that night for Seattle and after five
days ride got only one brief workout and
gave one of the best accounts of them
selves that any eastern team has given
in the west by trouncing Washington
8-7. It is interesting to note, too.
that the Washington-Jefferson team of
a year ago which played so 'TnHation
ally against California, was groomed
along the same lines as the Dartmouth
eleven in H20 nnd the sume as Spears
aud Car 1 1 tie U plan for the Mountaineers
this season. -
There has been some discussion loc
ally about the fact that Dr. Spears is
taking only twenty players on this trip
whereas on other trips llii senson. ns
well as last, he bad a ininiimii'i f
men. Spears believes, however, that
his squad i in the best . plis y;ti shape
of the year and that they are ri:;!ti now
prepared for h strenuous .-i!iie with a
limited number of suhMitntmns. T;i)
maiL hos a "hangover" in the way of a
bad leg received in the Washington-.
Jcfferson( victory, but otherwise there
is no injury of nnv character among
auv of the men. and shire no strenuous
scrimmage is plaiiui-d before the team
leaves, it is certain that a team in the
real "pink" of cowlitm will take the
field at San Diego on Christmas Day.

LITTLE TALKS ON THRIFT
By S. W. STRAUS,
Pretident American Society for
f Thrift.
DEOPLE often imagine that
economy means a state of
bondage, and that it restricts them
in a lull en
joyment of
life's advan
tages a,nd
blessings. On
the contrary,
economy nnd
thrift open a
direct road to
independence
ind liberty. In
d o p e ndence
through thrift
would bo a
good motto to
keep constant
ly in mind.

"Economy, wrote
lohnson, who was
poncnt of the gospel of thrift, "is
the parent of integrity, of liberty
and case and the beauteous sister
jf temperance, of cheorf ulncss and
health." '
Tho value and satisfaction of
liberty and independence, so gen
erally unrecognized in tho bloom
and vigor of youth, looms up as
the years advance, and wo begin to
crave a freedom frin the servi
tude which always goes hand itt
hand with poverty and dependence
upon others.
The ways of extravagance and
waste, which appear so inviting at
first, soon begin to narrow down
snd present the terrifying prospect
of penury.
Systematic economy atul pre-
caution agaiflst waste ami, extr.iv

Washington. Hcc. 21. France soon
mry be asked by the United States to
place all her cards on the table.
With the success or failure of the
An-crican move, looking toward a solu
tion .of the old world's economic, crisis,
virtually hanging . on the attitude of
France, this government is understood
to be preparing to ask Premier Poin
caro for a definite statement as. to the
utn-ost concessions lie is willing to make
on reparations and kindred ijueutious in
order to relieve the situation.
France's Plight Recognized.. '
This government realizes the Poin
cni e government faces a difficult poli
tical situation because of the strong de
mand in France for the use of force in
the hope of making Germany pay the
huge, reparations figure which has been
imposed upon her, and the inquiry to the
Franch government, will be propounded
in the most., friendly manner. .
, This government has received tho Gor
man proposal calling for a commission
ol exports, preferably Americans, to re
vice the reparations down to .tJio highest
pof-sible figure Unit Germany can pay.
This proposal was revealed exclusive
ly by the' United Press and caused un-,
u,i:al interest in official circles. It is
believed that any plan the United States
ngioes upon would be acceptable In the
tnniu to Great Hritain.. thus making it
necessary to harmonize as much, as pos
sible - the wide differences between
France and Germany, if a solution of the
piM-blem is to be reached.
. Views of All Are Sought.
The plan of this government is to got
the views of all the powers, nnd then
outline a common ground upon which
negotiations could be opened with the
United States acting as a sort of media-
