At the risk of beinj; dnlilied "immature" whieh we proli
alily are we frankly prefer Ihe Western 1'ootlmll spirit, and
will lie sorry when it follows the lead of Ihe effete Kast, whieh
eventually it, no iloulit, will. For civilization follows the sun,
and just as Kaslern collc'Cis have followed the leadership of
Caiubridde and Oxford; so Western, eollejjes will, one of these
days, follow the leadership of Harvard and Yale. .' ',.
t .
IT IS, as Mr. Martin says, an inevitable part of the process of
Ki'iiwiiiK up.1 Mut f 1 in t is precisely the point ; when football
is concerned, we don't like to see Our colleges (trow up. Not be
cause we prefer the professional to the amateur spirit, nor lie
cause we particularly condemn the more o histicated attitude
of tile Kust, but because we prefer no "attitude' at all.
And that is fundamentally the Western eollexc spirit, "NO
ATTITl'lJB" at all. They refuse to prow up, they refuse to
adopt, an attitude, they remain just boys, natural boys, with
that eagerness of heart, and unbridled enthusiasm which is the
essential spirit of Youth.
They DO take the (tame more scriouly. Hut Youth always
takes thiniis more seriously. They DO want to win, they DON'T
want to lose, victory sends them into a war dance; defeat,
plunnes them into inexpressible kIuoiii .'
Foolish, ol'iourse. And yet we have a pet theory reiardiiur
it, which roughly speaking is this: :
4
NATIONS (trow up, just as individuals crow up, and, while'
sii-'h crowth represents a if tl ill, it also involves a loss, Some;
of us shed a tear when the youth of an individual departs well,
WH shed a tear when the youth of a nation departs. It is a form
of dentil soinethinK has ifiine which will never return, w
More t li n ii that. The spirit of youth is the spirit of physical

When tho Ouhc of Wellington suit! Waterloo whs won on tin
football ficltl otKtoii, he stated h very profound truth. So while
wo don't deny that. Mr.. Martin is eorreet, when he declares the
West is superior to the Kast. in football, because it takes the
name more seriously, we don't nyree with him when he main
tains the West should ileploru the fact.
.
ON TtJK contrary, we feel the fact should be viewed with
pride and self satisfaction. Kor it nIhiws Hie YVesL hasn't
urown up, that it retains the. spirit of Youth, that it possesses
that excessive physical vitality which has no patieive with alti
tudes, hut is concentrated upon winning tiaines.
And what is tho essential spirit behind winning games? The
spirit of achievement, of eomptcst and of progress.

When or If a doc

what to-do.
A tfrcivt many
mistakes occur In
tho excitement of

of them ludicrous,
some serious. One
of the most seri
ous and common mistakes Ih to
forget to pay the doctor when ho
comes. Home folks are so thought
less they forget to pay him ever.
The Nerlomtucss of ihlH is not
merely that Ihe doctor Ih forced
lo double up his price for those
who do pay, but that after a series
of sueh batipenintjH In his young
lift Ihe doctor being only human
ami having ivnt to pay and kids
to feed maybe. Is lu danger of be
coming cynical or callous in regard
to hurry calls. I have noticed that
the dead beats are tho first and
tilt) totideMt in the great chorus of
co tidein nation of doctors about
Ihctr dilatory tactics In responding
to such calls. It would bo not
strange to find some dodo still
extant who cherishes a comfy little
notion that a doctor Is under legal
compulsion to come on the hop
whenever anybody, no matter who.
calls him. It Is scarcely '6 years
since I encountered such a bird
one dark and stormy night; I drnv
and quartered him on the spot.

QUCNTIOXS AND AXKWFJtS i
Why So Much Goiter?
Goiter seems very prevalent
among girls and young women In
this section (northern Illinois). Is
it because of our lake water or
climate? Is there anything one)
can do to avoid getting goiter.'?
(P.H.D.) 1 - .
Answer. To the best . of our
knowledge It is due td deficiency
of lodln In the food and water, and
perhaps in the air of the region.
Vou may easily make sure of a
proper iodln ration by adopting for
household use lodled salt Instead
of ordinary salt. Besides, I think
most of us should take a nip of
ordinary tincture of iodln once p.
week or so one drop of tincture
of lodin in a glassful or more of
water. It Is well for people living
in a region where goiter is preva
lent, as it Is In the middle western
Great Lakes region, to include in
the dietary liberal amounts of
fresh sea food (fish or shellfish)
the market affords, as well as
canned salmon, which retains a
considerable part of the iodin in
the fresh fish.
Kcstraiiiing Father Time
I felt the prescription for pre
venting hair turning gray worked
with me as long as I would work
with it, but I long since gave It up.
Mrs. , however, has kept it utj
and still Is a firm believer in It a
merits. I pay $2.12 every few
weeks for a fresh bottle for her.
When she slips and Father Time
shows his hand, she puts in a
couple of hours of steady plucking,
and a return to the bot'.le, and
then blooms forth as a ycung girl.
(C.M.H.)
Answer. The prescription re
ferred to Is one given by a Wash
ington skin and scalp specialist to
prevent graying of the hair.
Carbon dtsulphide 50.00
Precipitated sulphur 2.00 ,
Carbon tetrachloride 10.00
Direction: Kr.b on scalp with
cotton two nif.hts a week.
The figures are for grams or
cubic centimeters. Or for spoonfuls
or drams or whatever mcusure you
like.
I suggest that persons ' with
black or nark brovn hair may find
our homely old Iron and Tea help
ful to use either with the above
formula or without, for. darkening
gray hair. Dissolve a lump of cop-
penis (iron sulphate) the size of a
chestnut (about a teaspoontul) in
a pint or ordinary bluck (Japan)
t-'fi, nnd moisten the graying hair
with It every day tilt you get the
effect of eternal youth.

THE GIUL VUUBLKM
By Alice JiulMin Pealc.
Marriage no longer Is the only
nor the complete solution of the
question of what a girl shall do
with her life, and modern parents
everywhere are trying realistically "
to face this fact thru preparing ,
their daughters accordingly, to
face life on their own "in case
anything should happen."
Not only has vocational prepara
tion for girls become a part of pro
tective foresight on the pari of
parents, it is also considered neces

she marries probably will be un
able to support her during tho first
years of marriage In anything like

Nearly all girls then are facing
the real need of learning to make
a living and their adolescent prob
lems are. therefore, even more
complicated than those of the ado
lescent boy.
Tho girl whose chief emotional
fulfillment continues lo Ho in tho
small circle of tho home, must also
develop a capacity for standing on
her own feet and for getting satis
faction out of an Indepcnden
struggle In a competitive und psy
chologically, at least, masculine
world.
It is not an easy goal to nchlcve
and it requires a nice balanrc of
Interests within tho personality
even to approximate It.

concept Ion of the values Involved
In making those Important decis
ions concerning vocational choices
and leisure time occupations which
are hminil to come up during tho
adolescent years.
