H. A. to C. L.C. It was decided that the name of the player must be in on the Thursday before the game to be played on the following Saturday. If d& player wishes to get a trans- fer, it was decided that he be giv- en the same by making the proper application, but at the same time it will make him ineligible to play for twelve days previous to the game, thus creating one Saturday on which the applicant will be a non-player. There is to be no trans- ferring done for the last two games in the finals of the season. A spring schedule was drawn up which will commence on Saturday afternoon, April 25th by a game at 2.30 o'clock on Queen's lower campus between 'R. C. H. A. and C. LIL. C.

The Umiversalist Leader Everybody prays some time and somewhere and somehow. Even' the one who openly denies the efficacy of prayer, yet in his mind will drop into the attitude of prayer as he séeks for reasons for not doing it! It is such a little prayer which can be confined within the words of even those "gift- ed." Real prayers, great prayers, are too big to be uttered; they are so spontaneous that they are prayed be- fore they can be spoken. Some ministers lead us to a prayer they have made up; others lead us in prayer to the throne of God. There are those who address the congregation while pretending to in- voke the Almighty. There are those who go with us into the presence of God and in becoming humility and reverence give our thanks and make our petitions. Sometimes a man who has never prayed, in the presence of a great ex- perience when he is conscious of his own helplessness, cries out, "Oh, if I could only pray!" And- in those words utters the first real prayer of his life. Prayer is more than asking, more than thanking, prayer is com= munion, and some time, some where and somehow the soul of man com- munes with God and prays its way into yet holier communion.

New York Tribune Work is in progress on another great scheme to reclaim by irrigation vast trgets of desert in the Soudan. It is believed it can be made to add cnorniously to the cotton output. I'he tract which is to be watered s known as the Gizra territory. It lies between the Blue and White Niles, below Khartoum, and consists of | 1,500,500 acres. The force and flow of the two rivers are sufficient to water the entire istrict when proper ly harnessed.: The proposal is to build two dams outh of Khartoum, gone over each of the rivers. Thus 'the tract be- tween the streams will be irrigated, while at the same time the force the water flowing into Egypt will be controlled. ' At present the Blue Nile comes down in' a raging flow, and the White Nile, flowing in steadier fash- ion, combines .with it to make a huge overflow. The building of the two dams will enable the flow to he properly regulated and will prac ye ally mean the final harnessing of the Nile. of Taxes on Signs, A committee of the Massachusetts genate has reported a resolve which calls for a commission of the state to study the problem of taxing signs used for commercial invitations to houses of thrift. with iriends | who has been visiting !! anoque on Friday, after sending a.
