'. in At an epoch-making meeting of pas* tors and eopetllltendentB of Sunday schools held Monday night in the First Methodist church, an organization was temporarily perfected and preliminary arrangements made which will he made permanent during the week, for the establishment here of a training school for Sunday school teachers. So much enthusiasm was shown that It was agreed to start it at once. There is so much need of a school of this kind that the idea once broached received unanimous ap- proval. Superintendents and pastors of many different denominations said the need of the hour was the instruc- tion of teachers. They all agreed. The plan has only been broached* with- in a few days but it was so well started that it was agreed to start the school next Monday evening. This meeting will he held In the First Presby church, as the 'woman missionari will be occupying all the availabl Methodist space next week, but after FRESHIES FIND HOLES IN THE VARSITY LINE Yearling Football Squad Tears Through Regulars ' for 14 to.7 Victory. The freshmen football team of North- western university furnished a "Ro- man holiday" Saturday afternoon for a group of members otithe Bvanston Commercial association, a few news- paper men and faculty football en- thusiasts. The yearling team, with little less than a week's drill under Coach Harry Wells, defeated the varsity by a score of 14 to 7. The game was a workout for the varsity to discover weak places In the line, and Fred Murphy found that he had some holes. But "be claims that he has the material to plug them, that was not on hand Saturday. In the game the freshmen resorted to all kinds of strategy and trick to defeat the varsity, while the regulars did not open up any new plays. During the session, with the excep- tion of a few minutes in the final quar- ter, when the varsity rallied and scored, the pigskin was. kept in their territory. Twice in the second quar- ter the freshmen almost reached the goal line, only to lose the ball on downs, once within seven yards of the goal and again on the one-yard line. The freshmen made both their touch* downs in the third quarter. Coach Murphy expressed himself as satisfied with the.showing. He said that the varsity had been going up against a pretty soft second team and that it was good work for them to hit the heavy freshmen. - For the ireshmen there were SO many stars that it is hard to select those who did the best, hut Hurlestone, Cigrand, Lynch, Brightmier, Elling- wood, Kohler and Hutch deserve men- tion. "Pat" Drlscoll, Rose, Steinbren- ner and Randolph did the, best work for the varsity. * COLLEGE 111 IN MINORITY in railroads S. O. Dunn. Railway Gazette Editor, Says There Are Only Twenty-five ' ."

Dunn; editor of the Railway Age Ga- itette. told the students of the^North- western University School of Com- merce, in an address on the occasion of the opening of the school last Fri- day evening, In which he urged the importance of education for railway work. "Of the 1,816,239 employes of the railways," Mr. Dunn-said, "4,000 are classified by the Interstate Commerce commission as general officers, and of the general officers ho less than 1,076, or 25 per cent, are shown by the Biographical Directory of Railway Offi- cials to have received a college train- ing. The Classification. These were divided as follows: Chairmen of executive boards' , and presidents ............ 67 Vice-presidents.............*-„ *> General managers, general .superintendents, and divi- sion superintendents ...... 1«0 General solicitors, general counsel, general attorneys > and commerce counsel......113 Traffic managers, etc..«,... 66 Secretaries, treasurers, audi- tors or comptrollers....... 76 Mechanical superintendents, mechanical and electrical engineers................. W Chief engineers, consulting engineers and engineers of roadway or maintenance. â- . 265 Miscellaneous, including put- - chasing agents, etc........ 1S4 "The main reason why there is only a minority of college men among the higher officers of our railways ts that the number of college men who enter* any business is small compared with the total number who enter It. and that, therefore, the number of col- lege men who rise to the top is bound to be small compared with the total number who thus rise. The fact that from this small part have been re- cruited onfrfonrUh-Df ail the general officers Is as high a tribute as could be paid to the value of a college train ing. Now that our educational insti- tutions are giving an Increasing amount of attention to railway work, the proportion of officers, recruited from among college men may he ex- pected to increase. A large majority of -the higher officers who are not col- lege men and. who have risen from the ranks are students m the heat sense of the word." Mr. Dunn also criticized'the char- acter of some of the instruction on railway affairs, saying: "Unfortunate- ly, the* are some professors in our unlvers ties who are so much more anxious to impress their own social and economic theories on their stu- dents than to .Impart to' them real knowledge that they do not take the trouble to ascertain the data on which their social and economic Colonel Sobieski Says Are".To !Ssrsr.d Push Monarchs from Thrones. 15 WANT TO JOW WAR'S END IS IN SIGHT TOs Country * Not ill J)an» ger from Any For- eignFoe. .!.'_'... "There will not be a crowned head in the whole of Europe* a year from now," said Colonel John Sobieski. His opinion is worth some attention. A lineal descendant In direct line from King John Hi of Poland, the next in succession If ' blood, relationship counted, a veteran of our civil war, and tor forty-seven years since a lec- turer who is In fijeh demand that now he cannot fill all the chautauqua dates offered, that remarkable assertion re- ceived more consideration than It would from an ordinary person. Colonel Sobieski was a luncheon guest Friday of his old friends, Mr. and. Mrs. George Howard Kelley, 1203 Elmwood avenue, Bvanston. His reel* dence for some years has been lei Loo Angeles, Cai.. and he Is going home next week. "One reason why I do not expect to succeed to the throne of Poland," he said, "is that there is none, and l do not think that Pound will ever again have a rating monarch. In fact, there will be none in all of Europe In a year from now.'
