But as he missed Hughitt hugged the oval to his jersey, and, jumping to his feet, swept around the Quaker line like a jack rabbit, to plant the ball between the Quaker goal posts, while the Pennsylvania forwards fought desperately to get back through the line they had been purposely permitted to penetrate.
Such was the perfection of plan and execution that thousands did not realize until the next day that it was a Yost coup, and not an accident.
Knife Gives Girl Sight.
Vera Critchfield, five years old, of Barberton, Ohio, blind from birth, to-day is able to see. Her case is only one example of what the State blind commission is doing for the blind children of Ohio. The commission has proved that all children blind from birth are not helplessly blind. One surgical operation removed the film from Vera’s eyes. One or two others will fully restore her sight.
Dream Saves Her Farm.
A dream in which Miss Helen Lochlin, of Bennett, Ill., had a vision of her dead brother directing her where to find a will he executed in 1897 saved her home to her when she was preparing to leave it because of an administrator’s sale.
The will was found by Miss Lochlin, who is more than fifty years old, where the vision told her it was hidden.
Miss Lochlin and her brother Frank lived on the small farm for many years. Frank died in the spring of 1910, and shortly after a partition suit was instituted by another sister, who lives in Denver. With no funds to buy in the share of the estate awarded to the sister by the court, Miss Lochlin was preparing to leave the home.
This will was proved authentic by the witnesses, and, as Miss Lochlin was named executrix by her brother, the estate will not go under the hammer, and she will remain on the farm.
