"Ocntlenien." he said, "we have no
desire for harsh measures. You are
disturbing the courtR with your racket
and you ought to desist like gentlemen."
The good nature of tho students re
turned at once. "Rah, rnh, Schtiltz,"
they shouted. Then the. crowd broke up
into small groups and left the build
ing after they had welcomed the lib
crated men back into their ranks.
The sendoff given the team today wns
spectacular aside from the hostile dem
onstration nt City Hull.
The greatest "locomotive" in the
world shook the roof of Itroad Street
station, when 5000 students, packing
the platform, cheered their team ns it
started for New York and the big game
tomorrow.
It was the first big parade and send
off that the I'enu men have held since
before the wnr. and it wns one of the
greatest in Ited nnd Blue history.
Band Leads Students
The cheering mass of students, led
by the new University band and the
cheer leaders, charged up the steps of
the station nnd flooded the platform
shortly before the '10 o'clock express,
which carried the team, left for New
York.
The cheer leaders in their white
sweatets and trousers climbed on top
of the posts of the gates leading to the
tralnshed and led the shouting crowd
below In singing the "Bed nnd Blue"
and cheers for the team.
There was a crat cry for" "Bob"
Folwell. Penn coach. The crowd
opened .anil the Coach, cllniDing on a
railing, turned nis tamous ugnting luce
to the crowd :
"Fellows." he shouted, "a Penn
team may be beaten, but its spirit Is
never broken. This send'off is the
greatest thing that could have happened,
and this Penn team is going over to
New York to fight as no Penn team ever
fought before. And we arc going to
bring back a victory!"
Again pendenionium broke loose, fol
lowed by a call for "Pert Bell." The
stocky captain climbed on the post of
vantage, very evidently moved by the
warmth of the Rend-ofT. He shouted over
the heads of the crowd.
"We'll Win," Cries Bert

The I'emisjhanla gridiron warriors left for New York this morning where they are to do battle with Dartmouth's far-fumed elcteii tomorrow. The automobiles rarrjlng the team to Ilroad Street
Station were followed by thousands of cheering nnd cavorting undergraduates. It wns the first demonstration accorded a Penn cleten .since 101(1, when the Ited and Blue departed for Pitts

there and win that game!"
"Heine" Miller, star end, nnd "Lud"
Wrny were also obliged to saj u few
u'ords to the crowd.
Then the band struck up the cere
monial of the great traditional occa

the "Ited nnd Blue" nnd "Drink n
Highball at Nightfall." nnd the station
rang anil echoed with the volume of
stalwart voices.
When the singers, at one point in
"Hall Pennsylvania" all took off their
hats and waved them In time over their
heads, the whole platform looked like
n great field of trees waving in the
wind.
"There she goes," cried some one
in the crowd, ami as the train slid
out of the sheil the faithful raised a
great cheer with three "Heat Dait
niouths" on the end.
.$t was the greatest send-off both in
size nnd enthusiasm ever given n Ited

For a half dozen blocks the street

The pnrndcrs would not stand for any
opposition to their onward march either
from the P. H. T. or drivers or auto

met the parade did not "heave to" in

W? Diamond Values Can Be Determined
It's the individuality in diamonds that makes it hard for you
to say what a diamond is worth.
You choose a setting. We can show you a diamond for it at
$S0 or $500 if you say so.
And perhaps you couldn't tell the difference. Only expert
skill and a microscope could detect the almost imperceptible differ
ences which make the value. Every diamond we sell is priced on
real value. We cut our own diamonds. Make our mountings, do
our setting. That's why our prices are so satisfyingly different.

agreement made between the president
Hi.i oiiienils of the I'ulted Mine Work
ers nnd the, conl opeintors' representa
tives in what is known ns the central
competitive district. This comprises tlie
states of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and
the western part of Pcnusjlvnnla. This
conference meets and mutually agrees
on a scale of prices to be paid, work
ing conditions, etc. After this hns been
concluded the other outlying distriits
from Colorado to Alahnmn mlopt the
same scale with such local modified- i
tions as may be required in the various!
btatcs. ..
There have been In the past frequent
strikes in these outljing districts so
called. Operators and miners could
not always agree. Some jeurs ago it
was decided by the mine workers to
end the condition, nnd halt these dis
astrous district strikes. It was, there
fore, ordered that all such differences
would be adjusted by the general offi
cers. This took these recurrent dis
putes out of the hands of subdistrict
leaders, eliminated much of the trou
ble, restored tranquillity nnd virtually
terminated tlie strike nuisance.
All this is ended if tlie miners gain
their present demands. All these ques
tions nre now thrown hnik to the dis
tricts for adjustment and settlement.
Operators and miners can fight it out
in Colorado or Kentucky or Uklahoma
without interference from the national
officer". It opens old sores nud paves
the way for fresh local strikes. This
will cause further restrictions in the
bituminous output of tlie country.
F,very strike will do its little evil bit
to that end and ndvnnce the danger
hand on the dial face of tlie nation's
conl production a space farther.

"Such householders, the janitors nnd
tho church women who countenance the
barred doors of churches, have adopted
otic of the most effective means of filling
madhouses or putting girls on the

"It is time church women stopped
frittering nwny their time nt church
work. They choose only the picturesque,
such ns planning n musical program or
nrranfting flu Mowers for a missionary

"The average social service organiza

ineffective. One way church women
can start sonic real work is by opening

Hint instend of closing nnd bnrrlng
church nnd parish house doors after two

Mrs. Ilennett, who is a social worker
