YATE “ALUMNI WHEKLY 5
University and Freshman Crews.
The recent work of the University
Crew has been handicapped consider-
ably by unfavorable weather. For two
weeks most of the practice has been
confined to short stretches on the river,
but on Monday the four-mile course
from the lighthouse was rowed in only
fair time. Greenleaf, ’99 S., returned to
his place at 7 on Wednesday, May 11,
after a two weeks absence, necessitated
by an attack of water on the knee, and
Niedecken, 1900, was moved back from
7 to 5, supplanting Cross, 1900. Since
then the order of the crew has been:
Stroke, Williams, 1900; 7,. Greenleaf,
99 S.; 6, Allen, 1900; 5, Niedecken,
1900; 4, Flint, ’99S.; 3, Brock, 1900;
2, Wickes, 1900; bow, Whitney, ’08.
In addition to these men, Greenway,
1900, McGee, ’99S., Cross, 1900, sub-
stitutes, and Greene, ’99, coxswain, are
at the training table and have been
measured for suits. :
Mr. Willis, who is assisting Mr. Leh-
mann in coaching the Harvard oars-
men this season, watched the work of
the eight from the launch on Friday,
and on Monday, P. H. Bailey, ’97, cap-
tain of last year’s Crew, was with Mr.
Cook.
The Freshman crew, after two weeks
of rather indifferent work, have shown
considerable improvement within the
last few days. There is still, however,
an apparent lack of snap in the work,
probably due to the fact that the boat
as now made up includes too many
heavy men. The men on the second
crew have been doing good work, and
it is expected that some of them will be
tried in -the first boat after the Spring
Regatta. The two eights have met in
a number of brushes on the harbor,
with varying success. On Saturday a
race was rowed over a mile and a half
course, to determine which of the crews
should represent the class in the Spring
Regatta, and the first crew won by
less than a length. The present order
of the first boat is: Bow, Patterson,
1901; 2, Thomas, 1901; 3, Gillette,
1900 S.; 4, Stillman, 1901; 5, Mon-
tague, 1900S.; 6, Brown, Igor; 7,
Auchincloss, 1901; stroke, Keppleman,
1901. These men and Atkinson, 1901,
‘substitute, and Chittenden, 1901, cox-
swain, are at the training table and
have been measured for suits.

Publishers’ Notes on the War.
One of the most convenient of the
many forms of war maps is that issued
by the Boston Herald. It is very clear
and gives Cuba, Porto Rico and the
Phillippine Islands in considerable de-
tail. It can be secured by a request
enclosing a two cent stamp for postage.
Leslie's Weekly is, of course, paying
special attention to the pictorial fea-
tures of the present war and illustrat-
ing it in the most interesting way. It
makes the offer to send the Weekly to
any address from now until the first
of October for $1.00. This, the pub-
lishers believe, will more than include
the history of the war.

First Ser-
With the Yale Platoon.
The past week has been spent by the
Yale men of Battery A at Niantic in
perfecting the drills, but as neither the
horses nor sabres have arrived for
them, complete work cannot be accom-
plished. There is a report in camp that
the Battery will be sent to Mobile,
Ala., early next week, where it will be
mustered into the United States army
and receive its entire equipment. At
the time of this writing there is no
official confirmation of the report.
Six more Yale men have volunteered
to fill the places of dropped privates
in platoons A and B of the Light
Artillery. Their names are: A. M.
Bell, J. L. Howard, R. Ayres, W. M.
Murdock and W. H. Sykes, all of ’98 S.,
and L. deForest, ’96 S.
There are now in service at camp
51 Yale men.

‘‘ If weak thy faith,
Why choose the harder side ?’”’
For those timid ones whose faith in
most things is surely weakest are just
the ones most often caught by the
hardest story presented for belief.
It ought certainly to be ‘‘ the hard-
est side” for faith when one is told
that in this certain company, or in that
certain scheme, each invested dollar
will bring back ten, and ten per cent.
interest. Yet financial fairy tales of
this sort are marvelously successful,
and weak human nature, with all
reason blinded by that hint of fabulous
profit, pins its faith on the impossible.
In stable life insurance there 1s no
fairy tale of any sort. Good life insur-
ance leads one on by no rainbow span
which promises pots of (unearned)
gold, to be had for a walk across the
meadow and up the hillside. It offers
just, and needed, and durable results—
results sure to be won by all who
perform their share of the contract
entered upon.
It is the recognition of this fact that
has won for life insurance the respect
and admiration of the world. Argu-
ment is no longer needed to support
it. As Secretary Gage has said: “ All
the sane man asks is, which is the best
company?” This question, too, has
been settled, for a generation of men
have decided that the claim put for-
ward by The Mutual Life of New York
is legitimate: “The best company is
the company that does the most
good.” Here is a company that does
all it promises—and more; a company
that has passed through fifty-five
years of business activity with an
unblemished record and a world-wide
reputation for justice and liberality.
