A CIRCUMSTANTIAL HERO. “Young gentleman, you are here to prepare yourselves for college, not to fritter away your time by indulging in football, and baseball and-,” Professor Smith hesitated as he sought to add the name of another sport. One of the “young gentlemen” upon whom his eloquence was being wasted, snickered as the Professor paused. This further aroused the wrath of the ordinarily mild- tempered man He went on more and more angrily. “I assure you that this is no laughing matter and I most emphatically say that I, myself, see no humor in the situation. I assigned a lesson to be studied and you have not studied it. If I must take a severe course, I will do it at once. Tomorrow we will have a written lesson. It will include anything we have had this year. You are all excused. Just a moment,” he added as a rush for the door began. The boys paused in expectation of further punishment. “I am letting you off easily today but I am sorry to say that if the results of the examination are poor, your football team will probably miss some of its iNjp T- valuable players.” At recess an indignation meeting was held. “Will Barker will never pass that exam,” said one boy excitedly, “and where are we going to get a tackle to take his place? There’s nobody half so good as he is.” “I’d like to get even with Smithy, he’s been selecting me as a butt of his sarcastic remarks all last month,” broke in the disgruntled Will Barker. There might be a way,” remarked George Williams, Barker’s chum. “How?” asked several eagerly. ” Never you mind. Too many cooks spoil the broth, you know. Just leave it to me.”
