FOOL8 AND FOOLS. Of all tho fools in this world the April variety Is tho best, because tho nibst joyous, Ho makes a fool of him self with that comploto abandon, that placid unconsciousness which brings Joy to the heart of tho practical Jokor. All men'' aro fools, according to tho dictum of Epmo one or other who died somo centuries ago and doesn't count anyhow "but wo would liko to re m'nrly'fhat there are fools and fools. ' Yes. wo k'eked hats with bricks un fldr 'them, wo ate candy with onion in ft, w) opened blank letters, wo ans wered bogus telephone calls, we ran out to see the flro, and in fact wo made the usual April fool out of our selves. But there aro somo Joke which aro tco old even for our un cultivated tnste.1 When a prank has been practiced on tho same kind of neophytes nt tho same time in the same place In tho same wuy sinco the foundation cf the pyramids It may seem a triflo frayed and not at all In -keeping with tho spirit of April 1st. At least so it seemed to the lively Junior Dlack Masques who did not wait at H.arley'8. Another tlmo hon ored custom fractured. THE FOOTBALL REFORM. Football from tho playors' point of vlow, football from tho professors' point of vlow, oven football from tho co-eds' point of vlow until wo scarce ly know whothor tho gamo resombles a "Donnybrook Fajr" or a pink tea.

"Advancing tho Ball: Tho ball hav ing boon placed in tho center of tho flold, tho umplro, who must bo a pro fessor of geology, oxhibits to tho team having possession of tho ball a fossil. All mombers of tho toam who think that thoy can namo tho geologi cal period to which tho fossil belongs shall hold up their right' hand. The umplro solocts a playor to namo tho period. If ho answors correctly ho advances tho ball two yards. If In ad dition, ho givos tho scientific namo of tho foBsll, ho advances tho ball Ave yards. If no mombor of tho toam can answer tho question propounded by tho umplro tho opposing toam shall bo given a trial. If successful, it Is given tho ball.
