sport in the playground movement,
the Grammar schools, the High
schools, and the preparatory schools
of our country. In this way we
could so influence the minds of our
young men that by the time they
are prepared to enter college they
have a good, wholesome view of
athletics, and will not sell them
selves to the highest bidder. To
me, this is the only solution to work
out this perplexing problem.”

Track House Benefit a Success.
Large crowds turned out to wit
ness both matinees and the four
evening performances last Saturday
at the Pastime so as to add their
little mite to the Track House Bene
fit Fund. An additional evening
oerformance was necessary to ac
commodate all those who were en
thusiastic about seeing the excel
lent reels, the pleasing features and
to help swell the proceeds. Those
who carried out the details of the
show and those who aided to
make the day a success by offering
their services in the way of special
features deserve thanks and valu
able mention.
A handsome sum was raised and
from this fund furnishings will be
bought to improve the interior of
the Track House. A detailed
statement of the receipts and ex
penditures in connection with the
performances will be published
next week in these columns.
