If that old lady who used to rule In
China were still on the throne the rev
o’ution would have ended long ago. ,
The queen dowager didn't confer or

that was all there was to It. I
Indomitable grit and its traditional
custom of never giving up until the f
game is over, gave Princeton the vie- '

Devi P. Morton called at the tax de- ,
partment in Newr York one day last •
week and “swore off" an assessment t
of $200,000 on the ground that he t

If the Colonel decides to enter the l
presidential race there will certainly '
be something doing next year. Certain <
politicians profess to see a Justifies- 1

Taft's trust policy was characterized i
as “chaotic.” 1
The football experts were confident
that Princeton hadn't a chance
against Harvard, and they were al
so sure, although not to such a de
gree. that Yale would have no trou
ble with the orange and black grid
iron gladiators; all of which goes to
prove once more that hind sight 1*
always and very much superior to
foresight.
