THE ECHO 36 Frosh Contest Edition 36 VOLUME XX TAYLOR UNIVERSITY, UPLAND, INDIANA, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 18, 1933 NUMBER ELEVEN BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT IS SUCCESS Fifteen Hundred Spectators View Final Encounter Coaches Unanimous In Voicing Praise of Recepteion Tendered Them Approximately 1,500 basket-ball fans attended the Grant County bas- ket-ball tourney held here Saturday in Maytag Gymnasium. The evening game, in which Jones- boro defeated a hard fighting Fair- mount team for the county champion- ship, was witnessed by a crowd which filled the gymnasium almost to ca- pacity. Following the game Presi- dent Stuart thanked the visitors and players for the fine spirit shown and extended the welcome of the Univer- sity. There was an immediate and enthusiastic response from the bleachers as students and friends of eight high schools joined in a yell of "Yea! Rah! Taylor!" Colorfully arrayed in white, with contrasting caps and capes of scar- let, the county band of over 200 pieces filled the entire end bleachers. The band, under the direction of Fred Reiter and Milo Field, played during intermissions and gave a half-hour concert before the evening game. Superintendent Ratliff and county officials joined in praising university authorities for the hospitality extend- ed visitors and for the accommoda- tions shown. Many high school stu- dents, some of whom had never known of the college, availed them- selves of the opportunity to visit the museum, laboratories, and campus 'buildings. Meals Well Served Much of the praise received was a result of the work of Miss Dare. Many compliments were heard re- garding the excellent dinners served by Miss Dare and her force in the dining hall. In addition to the cafe- teria a lunch room service was main- tained in the recreation room during the day. In the Wisconsin building winning teams of the morning and afternoon games were provided with rest rooms under the supervision of Miss Howard. Dr. Bramlett and his helpers per- formed an efficient service, parking over three hundred cars without a mishap. A bureau of information under Dean Holiman's direction was arranged for the convenience of the convenience of the visitors. Ticket sales, timekeeping, and the operation of a checkroom in the basement were also handled by Taylor students. Mention should be made of the faithful work of Coach Cornwell be- ginning weeks before the tourney. His planning and foresight and his able direction of operations con- tributed more than any other factor to the success of the event. Coaches and players were well pleased with the Maytag Gymnasium. Coach Gotschall, of Fairmount, ex- pressed great enthusiasm. "This is undoubtedly the best county tourney I have attended," he said. "The ac- commodations and hospitality have been wonderful. And there is no finer playing floor in the county than you have here. I hope the tourney can be held here next year." Coach Singer, of Jonesboro, stated: "I have been attending and coaching at county tournaments for fifteen years. This is the finest I have seen." Credit is due Mr. Abbey for his work in remodeling the bleachers to accommodate the large crowd. Taylor Instructor Returns To Campus Words cannot express how glad the student body is to see their music- master back on the platform at dear old T. U. once more. Numerous ru- mors have been circulated concerning the whereabouts of Professor Steucke since the beginning of the Christmas holidays. Some of these reports have been of misleading nature; one can- not conceive of the Professor spend- ing his time behind the Ibars, as one of the more popular rumors would lead us to believe. On the other hand there are those harboring the thought that he lost his way while watching i the many-colored hogs between here and New York. But the real facts of the mysterious case are these: Professor and Mrs. Steucke left Upland, Ind., for Virginia a few days before Christmas. The Professor knew, of course, that his New York license plates would be use- less after the beginning of the year— that it would be necessary for him to get new plates if expecting to return after January 1. He stopped at Hartford City, Ind., but found that he would have to have either the title of the bill of sale. The title he did not have, and the bill of sale was back in Upland. He could plainly see that something had to be done, so they finally decided to return before January 1. Unfortunately their plans were not carried out, and they found themselves in Virginia on January 1, 1933, with the license plates for New York State of 1932. This would never do. It was necessary that he get new plates before even attempting to re- turn to Indiana, else he probably would have landed in jail, as has been intimated. The only chance that he took was to accept the offer of a friend to use a set of dealers license plates from Maryland. When last seen these iplates were still on the car. Professor Steucke, we are glad to know these rumors are false, and that your delay was caused by nothing more serious than being a year late in the wrong state. Alumna Writes Concerning Her Work In Panama Marguerite Deyo, '31, Sends Letter To Her Many Campus Friends Eureka-Eulog Debate Has Been Postponed Wishing to co-operate with the offi- cials of the county tournament, the Eureka and Eulogonian Debate Clubs moved to waive their respective con- stitutions and present their semi-an- nual debate later. A keen interest has always been | displayed in these inter-club contests, the winners receiving a large banner, ' which they are privileged to keep until the next debate. Since the Eu- logs won the final contest last spring, they have been proudly displaying the banner to all comers. Of course they will work to retain it, while the Eurekas are eager to repossess that which once graced their halls. As their contestants the Eulogon- ians have selected Bob Dennis, John McCreery, Joe Brothers, and Bob Jacobs, alternate. The Eureka men are Marvin Schilling, Blaine Bishop, Herbert Ayres, and Ben Smith, alter- I nate. Schilling and Bishop have had inter-club experience. The question for debate is: "lie- solved: That all debts contracted be- tween governments as a result of the World War should be cancelled." The Eulogonians defend the affirmative, the Eurekas, the negative. The success of this tourney marks a forward step in the school's prog- ress. The advertising possibilities of 1 such an event alone make it worth while. The following is part of a letter from Miss Marguerite Deyo who was graduated from Taylor in 1931 with an A. B. degree and remained to re- ceive her M. A. in 1932. Miss Deyo i is now doing missionary work in Panama: "I like the tropics very much with their cocoanut, rubber, orange and banana trees and pineapple planta- tions. It is arther hot and yet a comparatively cool breeze arises in the evening and so it is quite com- ifortable for sleeping. We have a few little animals that I don't' fancy, | but they're to be expected—cock- I roaches, fleas, ants, etc. Our build- ings are built right on the sea wall, and so the air is quite damp. All ! dark clothes and leather articles mil- | dew. The cockroaches have eaten the j covers on a number of my books, and | unless we wear all our shoes once in j a while they are covered with mildew, j But those are just a few little incon- jveniences that one comes to expect. Native Home Life I like the people here and they have made me feel very much at home. Their home life is terrible i though. Many families live in only I one room, i. e., a family of from six ! to ten people generally live in one | small room. If there is any division at all made, a sheet is strung across the middle. A great many people are never married; marriage is too ex- pensive. It is difficult to divorce, and j both the man and woman treat each I other better, for they know that un- j less they do the other one will never stand for it and will leave them. One family I visited the other day was proud of the fact that nine out of ten children were of the same father. These people certainly need a God of truth and purity. The thing is that the Panamanians have little confi- dence in the white man's morals, for the Americans they see are generally I the ones that visit the saloon and cabaret. It is a disgrace to see how the tourists have blackened the eye of our America. In talking to one of the girls the other day I surprised her (and she did not believe men) when I denied her statement that nearly all the American homes were regular users of beer. The Commercial School Well, I must tell you some of our work here. We have a grade school and Commercial School. My work is in the Commercial School. Altogether we have about 250 students. They represent all races—Spanish, Chinese, Indian, Negro, Hindu, German, and Panamanian. In one child there is often a mixture of races. The matter of discipline becomes quite difficult due to this. But they are all so like- able in spite of their mischievous- ness. My sister has started an Ep- worth League which meets on Wed- nesday nights. By doing this quite a number of school young folks come. I think they tell their parents that is is some school affair. When the stu- dent comes here to school he forfeits his right to communion in his church and is ostracized by the priest, but he comes anyway. Many parents rfet their children come because they I can get English and Commercial work here.

Two of his books are, "The Harmony of Science and the Scriptures," and "The Theory of Evolution and the Facts of Human Antiquity." From his present engagement at Berne, Indiana, Dr. Rimmer is going to Boston where he will continue his lecturing. He has other engagements in six leading Eastern universities, inculding Yale and Brown. His subject on Friday afternoon was, "The Modern Mind and the An- cient Word." "I believe," said Dr. Rimmer, "every word of the Old Book from the beginning to the end." He continued Iby saying that there is not a thing in the scriptures which can- not be proved scientifically correct. As the modern mind is the scientific mind, those who believe the authentic- ity of the Bible show that they have the modern mind. Scientific Miracles It is difficult to believe in the mir- acles of the Bible? Not at all, pro- vided you have the scientific mind of this modern age. The story of the floating axe head as found in the sixth chapter of Second Kings should not seem incredible in the light of the fact that man has been able to make ten million axe heads float in the form of a battle ship. Therefore, could not God make one axe head float, since His power is superior to that of man? Everything checks back to your philosphy of God. If man is able to make a phonograph which reproduces the human voice in a natural way, could not God so con- trol the vocal chords of the ass in Numbers 22:28 so that it could speak? The story of Moses smiting the rock in the desert and causing the water to flow might seem incredible to some; but when man has been able to accomplish practically the same thing in Death Valley, could not God have done as much through Moses? Where all was desert, engineers have been able to bore an artesian well having a capacity of 100,000 gallons of water daily. All thought upon this subject -must revert to your con- ception of God and His power. The miracle of Christ feeding the five thousand people with but five loaves and two fishes is not impossible in the light of modern scientific know- ledge. Wheat planted about 3800 B. C. would have multiplied to such di- mensions that today it would cover the entire solar system. The roe of a single mackrel, if all matured, mould be sufficient to fill both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans so that one might walk dry shod across them. Men cannot, therefore, reasonably doubt this miracle of Christ. The greatest miracle of all time is the miracle of redemption. As Moses lifted up the brazen serpent in the wilderness, crying, "Look and live," so may we have "life for a look" if we but gaze upon the sacrifice of the Son of God.

Praise of Recepteion Tendered Them

Approximately 1,500 basket-ball fans attended the Grant County bas­ket-ball tourney held here Saturday in Maytag Gymnasium.

The evening game, in which Jones-boro defeated a hard fighting Fair-mount team for the county champion­ship, was witnessed by a crowd which filled the gymnasium almost to ca­pacity. Following the game Presi­dent Stuart thanked the visitors and players for the fine spirit shown and extended the welcome of the Univer­sity. There was an immediate and enthusiastic response from the bleachers as students and friends of eight high schools joined in a yell of "Yea! Rah! Taylor!"

Much of the praise received was a result of the work of Miss Dare. Many compliments were heard re­garding the excellent dinners served by Miss Dare and her force in the dining hall. In addition to the cafe­teria a lunch room service was main­tained in the recreation room during the day.

Taylor Instructor Returns To Campus

Words cannot express how glad the student body is to see their music-master back on the platform at dear old T. U. once more. Numerous ru­mors have been circulated concerning the whereabouts of Professor Steucke since the beginning of the Christmas holidays. Some of these reports have been of misleading nature; one can­not conceive of the Professor spend­ing his time behind the Ibars, as one of the more popular rumors would lead us to believe. On the other hand there are those harboring the thought that he lost his way while watching

i the many-colored hogs between here and New York.

Eureka-Eulog Debate Has Been Postponed

Wishing to co-operate with the offi­cials of the county tournament, the Eureka and Eulogonian Debate Clubs moved to waive their respective con­stitutions and present their semi-an­nual debate later.

A keen interest has always been | displayed in these inter-club contests, the winners receiving a large banner,

Gray Dawn

Not long ago we had a beautiful gray rab­bit of which we were very proud, in spite of its many faults. Gray Dawn was by no means unintelligent, but she liked to sow her wild oats as well as eat them. Under cover of darkness she would frequently leave the protection of her home for more alluring quarters. Supposedly everything was ideal at home, but she insisted upon leaving; a veritable prodigal son, except that her returns were frequent and not at all repentant. The most remarkable phase of her life was that she always returned in time of danger, perfectly confident of her master's pro­tection. She was never disappointed, until it became evident that she was carrying the game too far by causing damage without either recom­pense or repentance. The first of these was not to be expected, but repentance and reform, even from a rabbit, was hopefully looked for. At last she was forsaken, finally to be ruthlessly mur­dered and eaten. It still brings regret to the owner to recall that little one as she slipped off when supposedly unseen, and then rushed con­fidently back when protection was needed.

The analogy is obviously simple, yet there­fore the more sinister. One who would think nothing of running a red light would shudder if you asked him to murder his brother. Yet when someone else kills his brother in a traffic accident caused by carelessness, he will loudly demand protection from the government he himself does not obey! The student who cas­ually disobeys minor rules, would call it out­rageous to be shut out of the dining hall.

Above all, there is One far more Perfect than family, school, or national government. One who is more often disobeyed—indeed, more flagrantly disobeyed—than any mortal power. He is more generous with His pardons and sus­pended sentences than any earthly judge. Given our own free will, how simple it is to slip out when we seem to be unwatched. How soon we are frantically scurrying back to shelter. Or­dinarily we are received, but some day in the gray of dawn we shall return and find the door locked.

A tract entitled "Suppose" was placed in my hands the other day. The theme of it was this, "Suppose some one were to offer me a thousand dollars for every soul that I might earnestly try to lead to Christ, would I endeavor to lead any more souls to Him than I am endeav­oring to do now? Is it possible that I would attempt to do for money, even at the risk of blunders or ridicule, what I hesitate or shrink from doing now in obedience to God's command ? Is my love fo money stronger than my love of God or of souls? How feeble then my love of God! Perhaps this explains why I am not a soul-winner."

How true it is that in the hustle and bustle of the day we converse with our friends on all subjects except the all-important one of their soul s salvation! Can we answer Christ's ques­tion in John 21:15 in the affirmative with a sincere heart? How can we expect to be soul-winners if we refuse to pay the price? Of course, we can "lean over backward," and repulse peo­ple, but if we let God's gentle, loving Spirit lead us we need not be afraid.

"Lovest thou me more than these?" John 21:15.

SUCH UNEXPECTED JOY I FOUND

Such unexpected joy I found Tucked in my yesterday; A flower growing from a rock, Two little lambs at play, A smile, a handful of sweet peas, Some dew the sun had missed, And best of all, a friendly voice All filled with pleasantness!

I knew whose Hand had made my day Thus beautiful to see; My Heavenly Father so delights To give good gifts to me.

I made a note of thankfulness For all the joys I had, And sealed it with a song or two, I was so very glad. I gave it to a passing breeze And cautioned lest he drop it. He slipped my prayer of thankfulness Snug down into God's pocket!

go wrong. When is clear so is 0ur

post—we cannot our conscience countenance.

When we have reached the period in life when our constructive work is done, for lack of something else to do, we look back and examine the re­sult of our effort. Will that which we

see cause a look of despair or satis­faction? What will memory bring to us?—The drama of the face is ended When the curtain descends will the spectators turn away contented ? Have

ithey witnessed a tragedy, a comedy or a farce?

—Joe Brothers.

Holiman—Freshman Sponsor

At the first of the year, the Freshmen unan'i" mously selected Dean Holiman as their sponsor. The choice rested largely upon his genial, de­vout Christian personality. The class surely appreciates a sponsor who will arise at six o'clock every Friday morning to attend the class prayer hour. Because ne is, as are we, new to Taylor, we are happy to learn with him how best to uphold the standards and ideals of this great institution.

Our sponsor is well qualified for his work here at Taylor, having completed thirty-two years of educational work. He has received his B. S. degree at Central Normal College, his A. B and A. M. degrees at Indiana University, and has practically completed his work for a Ph. D. degree at the latter institution.

The writer has read a number of testimon­ial letters commending Dean Holiman's work at the various schools, all of which emphasize his deep Christian experience and his popular­ity with the students. Truly, Professor Holiman lives up to all the qualifications of a Taylor member.

WORDS OF A FRESHMAN

I am only a Freshman, so I stand around

Listening to Sophomores and others expound;

I must be seen and never ibe heard; (So say upper classmen in virtuous

word). The green of the campus with win­

ter is greyed While I am yet roaming in greenness

arrayed. But I will take courage, some day I'll

grow up And haply may part with my old

Freshman cap; Then, "Come all ye moths, for the

table is spread I With the bounteous green from an

ex-Freshman's head!" —Kenneth Stokes

Man's inhumanity to man Makes countless thousands mourn.

—Robert Burns. Babolyn in all its desolation is a sight not so

awful as that of the human mind in ruins. —Scope Davies.

He that hath knowledge spareth his words. —Proverbs XVII, 27.

No man ever became extremely wicked all at once. —Juvenal.-"

Imitation is the sincerest flattery. —C. C. Colton.

Europe no longer inspires America. The contrary is beginning to be true.

—Andre Siegfried. Women like to have their thinking done for

them. —Dr. Joseph Collins.

A "SPONSORIAL" STATEMENT By Dean Holiman

It is said that the president of Robert Col­lege in Constantinople made a statement some­what as follows: "Everybody is welcome here, Mohammedan, Jew, or Christian. When he leaves he may still be Mohammedan, Jew or Christian. But please God no one will ever leave here without knowing what we stand for." In the same way will students who come to Tay­lor have her standards and ideals set before them- Excellent scholarship, moral rectitude and spiritual well being are the very atmosphere of Taylor. These are, we believe, essential to the development of young life. Things which interfere with the development of these ideals are so far as possible eliminated from the cam­pus. Eighty-two years of her history have found her true to her standards. Any institu­tion is judged by its output. Hundreds of high­ly trained men and women are the product of Taylor. In all walks of life, as Christian lay­men, as ministers and as missionaries, these men and women have exemplified in their lives the ideals of Taylor. This is Taylor's pride. In the future she will still be true. The young people who come to her campus will be trained in sound scholarship. They will be surrounded by a moral atmosphere. Their spiritual life will be fostered. Parents need not fear to send their young people to Taylor. Her capacity for stu­dents is five hundred. With her present fine student body and all her constituency boosting for enlarged enrollment, her halls can be com­pletely filled in such a short time that even the most optimistic might be surprised-

Some cigarettes seem less provoking Unto the ones that do the smoking. Oh, won't some power please compel 'em To smell themselves as others smell 'em?

» * » Man is like a kerosene lamp. He isn't exactly bright. He's often burned down; usually smokes; And frequently goes out at night.

Face Building Is the drama of your face, or mine,

going to be a tragedy, a comedy, or a farce ? Everything depends upon ; what occurs "backstage." Mr. Elwin

j L. House states that one's face is a mirror reflecting that which is be­hind it. If this is true, then every mental process is reflected upon the face. When we are amused we can­not conceal our feelings; when we are in sorrow it is not possible to hide our thoughts from those who observe carefully. Why, then, at­tempt to conceal our emotions? If they are such as should not ibe reveal­ed, they surely do not belong behind the scenes. Assuming that every con­scious thought is registered upon the face, what will be the rseult after-seventy or eighty years of life? To leave this world with a clean con­science—a well kept soul—is certain­ly the height of achievement. Since the face is the outward manifestation of this inner self, is the possession of a beautiful, spirit-filled countenance when we pass from this world to the next not worth one supreme effort ? The adage, "Beauty is more than skin deep" is worth repeating here. It is soul-deep. Remember that one's face is his autobiography. How then are we to build and control the drama of our faces?

To achieve success we must dare to go forward! To go backward means j chaos; to lie idle results in decay; but to go forward is victory. Exam­ine the face of one who is slipping backward; all hope is gone; despair is the keynote. Observe the self satisfaction on the face of one who lives day by day, careless of the fu­ture. Then catch a spark of enthu­siasm from the man of action, bust­ling with energy and eagerness for the fray!

"As a man thinketh, so is he; Rise, then, and think with God." We must control the thoughts that enter our minds before we can control the facial reflection of them. As a means of controlling his thoughts, actions, and words, everyone is blessed with a conscience. If we defile it and con­stantly disobey it, it becomes false and untrustworthy; if we heed its de­sires it becomes a constant gnide-

ODE TO THE FRESHMAN The little green hats are packt' way

in a trunk, Moth-eaten and covered with mold-

Their purpose completed, their mem­ories sunk

'Neath villianous treatment untold.

The wearers were noble, aye, long did they bear-

Chagrin upon misery galore; But wait—upper-classmen! Laugh

not up your sleeve, The Frosh are not green to the core

Who lifted the flag of the French o'er her head,

And made it a land of the free ? Stand up and admit it, the truth must

be told— Joan of Arc—inexperienced as we!

Who conquered the British in spite of their scorn?

And made THIS a land of the free? Don't stand there in wonder—that

oak from acorn Was Washington, a novice as we!

Is wisdom controlled by a kye and a cane ?

Embodied in trifles as these? Even though for the Juniors and Sen­

iors that's true, We keep ours in our heads, if you

please!

Though the little green hats may be ragged and worn,

Emblematic of sarcastic fun— They represent eager ambition and

hope, The Frosh will not always be dumb.

CLASS OF '36 The Goal is not reached by a single

bound, We build the ladder by which we rise, And mount to the summit round by

round, From this world to the glory of the

prize.

What if life's journey's a rugged one, And our sweetest joys are dimmed

with tears! Heedless of all, we go striving on, With the thought of what lies beyond

the years.

As upward, forward, and onward, we press,

Our motto, a challenge before us lies, To rise, "To the stars through bolts

and bars"; From this lowly earth to the vaulted

skies.

For the Goal is not reached by a single bound,

We build the ladder by which we climb,

And we mount to the summit round by round

F rom this world to the glory of the prize.

—May Brace.

New people dashing here and there With puzzled, worried looks;

Too many strange things all around, Too many heavy books.

Wide, unfamiliar corridors, And stairs that seem so long; '

Such things to learn—T. U.'s yells And every peppy song.

Freshmen! this your own school, As handed down to you,

And you must keep its records bright, Its standards high and true.

Each corner—window—turn in stairs Is a tie enduring, true

So treat it well and honor it— Our own dear old T. U.

—Alice Jensen.

V*

The man whom I have selected to present to the Faculty, Administra­tion and student body for this week is Percival Wesche. Wesche was born on a farm near Ashland, Wisconsin, June 14, 1912. Two years later he moved with his parents into the city of Ashland, which place he has called his home since that time. At the age of six he started to public school in Ashland. His second years school­ing was rather broken up, the first month being spent in Ashland, the second in Denver, Colorado, and the remainder of the year he was taught by his mother. At that time his par­ents were living in a lumber camp located seventy five miles from Den­ver, in the heart of the Rocky Moun­tains; his father being engaged as head carpenter in the biulding of a new lumber camp. Returning the following year to his home city, he spent the next three years of school life in the Ashland Schools. Again going west, the sixth grade work was taken in the Denver schools. The rest of his pre-college work was taken in his home state, being grad­uated from the Ashland High School in 1930.

Percival Wesche IThs three brothers, all older than himself, one of them, Gerald, being a graduate of Taylor, and one sister, who may be a Tayloi'-ite some day. Mr. Wesche entered Taylor in the fall of 1930. He states that, there are three main reasons why he came to Taylor rather than going to some of the other Holiness colleges; the influence of his brother, that of a friend and supporter of the institution, Dr. W. A. Hazelton, and the fact that Taylor then had an ac-

* tive chapter of the Y. P. G. L. Wesche is at present the Editor-in-

Chief of the school publication, The Echo. He is a member of the Y.P.G.L., the Holiness League, Philalothean Literary Society, the Eurekan Debat­ing Club, and the Inter-collegiate De­bating Team.

While in school here Wesche has been prominent in the work of the National Y. P. G. L., having held sev­eral offices in this organization.

Elliott Leads Thurs­day Prayer Meeting

A discussion of the reliability of God's promises was led by Professor Elliott after the prayer service had been opened by singing the hymn, "He Leadeth Me." During the dis­cussion, the real value of the numer­ous promises, His abi-lity to fulfill them, and the impossibility of fail­ure of His word were pointed out. The revival requests and the recov­ery of Fred Vincent, '31, were remem­bered in the session of prayer. Fol­lowing the prayer, many personal testimonies told of the value of God's promises and of the fulfillment of each one. Bob Titus offered an in­spiring message in song entitled "Jesus' Name." The presence of the Holy Spirit was evident throughout the service.

Judge: "Where is Washington?" Alien: "He's dead." Judge: "I mean the capital of the

United States." Alien: "Oh, they loaned it to Eu­

rope." Judge: "Do you promise to support

the constitution." Alien: "Who, me? How can I, I

have a wife and five children to support."

Speaking at Weslayan University, Professor Erdiman Harris of Union Thologieal Seminary told the students that if he were a girl picking a hus­band he would prefer that the man should have had at least one other love affair, and six or seven if pos­sible. A man who could not decide what girl to marry without apologiz­ing to his mother for falling in love with her would not be a good risk, the professor said. A man who had had sisters is a better bet than one who had not, he added.

and moral training they need. They all have to take Bible. In my Bible class of about twenty-four I have asked for a list of questions which they would like to have discussed in class. Perhaps you would be interest­ed in a list of some of them. I will give them in their exact words:

Is it true that you can never be saved from your sins?

Does God forgive sinners? Should everyone obey the command­

ments of the Bible? It is true that they have the cross

of Jesus and when you go there they give you a piece of it?

Why do some people believe there is no God?

How did the devil exist? It is said that we are higher type

animals, is it true? How did God come into this world ?

Are we celebrating the right day— Sunday ?

Was there ever an earth before this one ?

Why were the olden people in much more close contact with God?

What language did Adam and Eve talk ?

Have Roman Catholic priests any power to heal the sick and to make things happen to anyone ?

Do we need to be religious? What language did or do God use? Should a man have to go to church

to be a Christian ? Can't a Christian fight for anything

even if it is for good? If a man knew nothing about God,

but led a good life, do you think he would go to heaven?

Was the Garden of Eden in this world or heaven?

It is true that the man who helped Christ to carry' the cross was a black man?

Are we born again after we die? Who wrote the first book in the

world ? Is ,it true that Isaac and Rebecca

never quarreled? Is it true that Jesus never ate any­

thing during his fasting, not even a piece of bread or any wild fruit?

Why did God make snakes? What did Jesus mean when he said

that people would have to be born again to inherit the kingdom of heaven ?

I read in an editorial in which men say that the story about God isn't true, and they have gone so far as to find the tomb in which Jesus Christ lay to get his bones. Is it right?

Is there ANOTHER hell after we die?

How would you like to have these questions to answer? I'm going to get out my Systematic Theology and use it for a few of them. They're certainly some mixture and worded queerly. They're just learning Eng­lish though and so they use the wrong forms now and then. They get their religious teachings from the priest's and are told a peculiar conception of Protestant doctrines. I think though that the young folks here are being reached gradually. We need your prayers in their behalf that we might answer their inquiries correctly and in such a way that it will bring a change in their lives.

I haven't heard much from Taylor yet, but hope that you had a good revival and are having a good year.

Sincerely yours, Marguerite Deyo."

TAYLOR UNIVERSITY ECHO

Alumni Tid-Bits By Margaret Kellar

We were glad to see one of last years graduates, Cecelia Learn, in chapel Wednesday. Cecelia is help­ing in meetings at the Zion Church near here. Ida Michaelis, another of last year's graduates was also on the campus last week. She is leaving for Greensboro, North Carolina, this week, where she has a teaching posi­tion in the Bethel Bible College. Mrs. Dorothy Jensen Baylor, who was here in '26 and '27, accompanied her sister back to the campus after the Christmas holidays. Mrs. Baylor is now living in Canton, Illinois. Jean-ette Groff, '30, was on the campus last week. She is quite successful in her work as music teacher in the pub­lic schools of Van Buren, and recent­ly took her orchestra, chorus, and a few soloists to the county teacher's institute.

Doris and Wilson Paul returned to their home in Superior, Wisconsin, after spending the Christmas vaca­tion here with Mrs. Paul's parents, Mr. and Mrs. B. A. Atkinson. Mr. Paul recently discovered that his of­fice in the Central High School in Superior was the one used by Calvin Coolidge during his vacation in Wis­consin several summers ago. Many on the campus received Christmas greetings from Willard and Eva Mc­Laughlin. They are getting along fine with their work in Madras, India. Word has recently been received from Mr. C. A. Douglas, a member of our office force a few years ago. "Doug" has a splendid position in Louisville, Kentucky, and is delight­ed with his work. Mrs. Douglas says that she is quite pleased with her new home. Glen Baltzell, '24, is now holding a revival at his church in Celina, Ohio. He is still working for Taylor and sends in the name of a prospective student. Thelma Atkin­son is secretary and pipe-organist of the First M. E. Church, Eldorado, Kansas. While attending a banquet in Wichita not long ago she happen­ed, to come across a Taylor graduate of 1906, Arthur Roberts, a leading lawyer of Kansas and city attorney of Wichita. Inah Mae Masters, '30, has just returned to the home of her parents in Akron, Ohio, after spend­ing two years at her uncle's home in Bellefbntaine, Washington. Esther Draper, '31, is staying at her sister's in Peterson, Iowa, this winter. She is now among the unemployed. Wal­ter Bieri, who was here in '26, has recently moved to Boonton, New Jer­sey. Walt is making good as the manager of a large department store.

Ministerial Hears India Missionary

Miss Habermann, one of Taylor's missionaries to India, was the speaker at the Men's Ministerial Monday eve­ning, January 9. She spoke on "En­tering the Ministry." The necessity of being called by God to preach the Gospel, instead of choosing preach­ing as a profession was emphasized. Ministers are to preach for the good they can do, and not for the financial part alone.

Miss Habermann stressed the im­portance of the preparation of a min­ister of the Gospel. This includes the choosing of a good religious college and the attending of a seminary that does not have modernism as its main ideal. The need of more prayers by the ministers of today was also stressed.

"PERFECT WEDDING"

Evanston, 111.—(IP)—The "most perfect wedding" is in the making on the campus of Northwestern Univer­sity.

Last year the co-eds on the cam­pus elected Paul Crimmins the "ideal man" of the university;

Last year the men of the university elected Miss Ruth Wenter the school's "most beautiful girl."

The engagement of the two has just been announced.

Miss Cline told her literature class the other day that Scott, the novelist, was lame. The next day she asked the class if any of them could remem­ber what Scott's affliction was.

"Yes'm," replied Isabelle Gilbert, "He was a novelist."

Daily Chapel Pro­grams Interesting

MONDAY: Dr. Troxall, a missionery for

thirty-one years in China, gave the address. He told of the wonderful work the missionaries are doing. One of the outstanding things was the building of ninety-eight churches in seven years.

TUESDAY: The Chapel hour was in the hands

of the History Club. Several inter­esting book reviews were given. "Ge­ography," by Henry Van Loon, was discussed by Ben Smith. "That Strange Little Man, Gandhi," by Dr. Frederick B. Fisher, was reviewed by Lucille Jones. Stanley Boughton closed the hour with his review of "Sherman, the Fighting Prophet."

WEDNESDAY: Dr. Stuart presided over an in­

formal discussion hour by the stu­dents in which several reports and testimonies of holiday T. U. boosting were given.

THURSDAY: Cecelia Learn, Taylor graduate of

1932, spoke on the unique subject, "An Examination of Our Personal Rela­tionship With God."

FRIDAY: In the Chapel hour at 1:30, Taylor

was favored with an address by Dr. Harry Rimmer. His subject was "The Modern Mind and the Ancient World." According to Dr. Rimmer the man with the modern mind believes in the Bible as the "infallible revelation from the mind of God to the hearts of men."

OVERTONES Mr. F. H. Reiter, band instructor at

Taylor, presented another phase of his work, the two-hundred piece coun­ty high school band, at the tourna­ment Saturday. In conjunction with Mr. Milo Fields, Mr. Reiter has been developing this band for several years and may well be proud of it.

The Taylor band itself will play at the county corn show, to be held at Taylor in the near future. Miss Both-well says of this band: "Under Mr. Reiter the Taylor Band has become the best in the history of the school."

The second School of Music prac­tice recital of the year will be pre­sented in Shreiner Auditorium Wed­nesday, January 18, at 6:45 o'clock. In giving these recitals the music de­partment is keeping step with the large conservatories of music, most of which make a practice of giving re­citals for their students.

The hour is worthwhile just as one of music appreciation, because Miss Bothwell always gives interesting points about the selections on the program; about the writing of the composition, the writer himself, or something of interest about its recep­tion by certain audiences. Alumni have often written hack to Miss Both-well, telling her how they appreciate the value of these, talks and how they miss them now.

Then too, the student artists for public recitals are chosen from these weekly events.

The program for January 18 is as follows:

Organ: Prelude and Jugue in A minor

J. S. Bach Dorothy Mathews

Piano: Marche Grotesque Sinding

Joe Severn Violin: Largo ma non tanto J. S. Bach (Concerto in D Minor for two violins)

Educational Screen Gives Yankee Story

Under the direction of Dr. Furbay, the Taylor Educational Screen pre­sented the "Yankee Clipper" Friday night, January 13. The setting of the picture was for the most part on the high seas; the photography, su­perb throughout, was especially ef­fective in portraying the ocean storm.

The story, based on historical fact, concerned the race of two rival ships, one a British, the other an American vessel, for the supremacy of the sea trade. The first ship to arrive in Boston harbor from a Chinese port was to receive not only the tea trade for the American Colonies, but also the ship of the loser as a prize.

The American "Yankee Clipper" met with many mishaps, including a terrific storm, in which seventy-foot waves rolled over her, appai-ently sealing her doom; but the ship rode safely through, and began a heroic effort to win the race. When use of full sails was inadequate, the crew brought their blankets from below and held them before the wind! Their admirable courage and persistency was finally rewarded with a startling and narrow victory. The climax is reached when "Little Jimmy, a famed woman-hater," says, "I guess women ain't so bad after all, it's only aunts."

Fat man— Virginia reel!

J0NESB0R0 ZEBRAS DEFEAT FAIRMOUNT IN FINAL GAME

Thalos Favorites Chicago Exposition Nebraska Students In Coming Series

Quakers' Last-half Rally Unsuccessful

The Jonesboro Zebras won their second successive Grant county high school basketball championship Sat­urday night, toy defeating Fairmount in the final tilt, 27 to 23. ,

Persinger, of Jonesboro, started the scoring by tossing in a couple of field goals. At the end of the first quar­ter Jonesboro had gained a lead of 14 to 3, which apparently won the game for the Zebras.

They battled evenly throughout the second period, with both teams hold­ing their opponents in the field, al­though each team managed to score six points.

In the third quarter the Fairmount quintet begin gaining on the Jones­boro five with A. Florea and Pettiford sinking a couple of field goals. Ma-loy's one hand shot and Stock's tip-in added to the Zebras' lead.

In the last quarter the Quakers succeeded in making six points to Jonesboro's three. Both teams fought desperately, Fairmount shooting whenever possible. Joneslboro de­fended their lead by holding the ball in position without advancing it down the floor more than was neces­sary.

The Quakers outscored the Jones­boro team in the last half of the game, but were unable to break down the Zebras' lead. They fought hard throughout the game, in spite of the advantage that Jonesboro gained the first quarter.

The Zebras probably could have won by a bigger margin, but Coach Singer took Maloy, Stock and Persinger out of the game for a few minutes' rest before the final spurt. When these men were sent back in, it gave added strength to the defense, which held the Quakers down to six points the last quarter.

Following the game, President Robert Lee Stuart thanked the school officials, players, and fans for their visit to Taylor and invited them to return.

TROPHY PRESENTED

In behalf of the Chronicle Publish­ing Co., the silver shield emblematic of the championship was presented by Keith L. Johns, who mentioned that it was the second successive time the name of Jonesboro would be engraved upon the trophy.

Fred Ratliff, county school superin­tendent, gave Maloy the victory ball which stays in constant circulation as victories in the intracounty games send it from one team to another. Supt. Ratliff also presented basket­balls to the finalist teams and gave the JonesLoro squad a silver trophy presented by the county athletic as­sociation as the permanent property of the winning school.

The high spot of the University's athletic program is now under way, but there still remains the problem of controlling the crowd. If too many desire seats, it will be necessary to charge admission.

Although the Philo boys are weak­ened by the loss of several of their veteran players, they still have ex­cellent material from which to build a team. Kenny Griswold, the Philo boys' manager, is the biggest threat to the Thalos, and doubtlessly will hold down one of the forward posi­tions. Weaver, Boughton, and Thomas probably will fight it out for the other forward berth. Gates, the tallest man out for practice will like­ly be pivot man. Persons, the stout little man from Minnesota, undoubt­edly will be one of the defensive play­ers, while the other guard position will be contested between Griffiths and Schilling. Wick and Tennant, who played well in the class games, will probably be given a chance to* fight for the blue and white.

Howard, who is hitting the hoop from all over the floor, will be the Thalos trump card. Johnson, with a miraculous one-handed delivery, will give the Philos plenty to think about in his position opposite Howard. Red-inger, a new ,man, is not to be sneezed at, and will likely shift with Johnson at forward. Miller will make the Thalo quintet as center. He is the lanky lad noted for pulling the ball out of the air at unexpected times and possessing an eye for the bas­ket. The next player to consider is Stuart, who without doubt will toe the Thalos strongest defensive man. Ty­ler, Davis, Shindbeekler, and Coldiron will be held in reserve awaiting star­dom when the opportunity occurs. Long, the Thalo manager, will be un­able to play this year because of an injured leg, which he obtained during practice last year.

If Howard doesn't have half a dozen or so operations, and if Stuart doesn't break a leg, the Thalos will give the Philos.their money's worth.

The Philo girl's team is preparing to give it's sister society a real fight this year, with several new students added to the ranks. Coming from Hubbardston, Michigan, Drake show­ed her worth in the class series, and is expected to occupy one of the for­ward positions along with Yingling, who is a veteran hardwood player. Pugh is in excellent form this year and every time she gets the pill in her hands, swish goes the net. Husky Tooley from Plainville, Indiana, to­gether with bouncing Mae Brothers are expected to hold up the back end of the court. Hogan, manager, doped as going strong this year, will direct the sextet from a guard position. Walhof, Vandervort and Shaw are prospective players who with a little more experience will make splendid material for the team.

Helen Gilmore, the star offensive player, has been elected manager of the Thalo girls sextet. With the as­sistance of Howard, she will be able

Plans Varied Games

An extensive program of all kinds of sporting contests is being drawn up at the present time by the 1933 Century of Progress. This program of sports will continue through the entire fair from June 1 until the close, November 1,

There will be football games, fur­nished by Northwestern and Stanford Universities, while swimming, diving, track, golf, and other American sports will be furnished by the A. A. U.

Foreign Sports On List

Foreign sports will be given a full chance along with American sports. Sir Julian Cahn is arranging to bring the English cricket team here to meet the Chicago Cricket Club and others in an international tournament. Also international soccer, field hockey, ar­chery, cross-country running, horse­shoe pitching, weight lifting, golf, track, and baseball have been arrang­ed for the entertainment of the world's sport fans.

to develop a good team, but will be handicapped by the loss of Witner, Dranke, and Simmons.

Dope places Gilmore and Phillips, both good basket shooters, at for­ward; while Deich, a good jumper will probably hold the tip-off position. Next to follow is Herrmann, who is the Thalos best prospect for guard, where she is expected to do much in defending the Thalo goal. White, Bennett, and Coby, all three good guards, will give the best that they have to obtain the two remaining po­sitions. Stuart and Bickel, new play­ers, will probably be held in reserve until they have gained more experi­ence.

With four good basket ball teams, all fighting their utmost to capture the inter-society championship, the basketball fans at Taylor will be ^>-iven something to howl about.

Set "Economy Menu"

Lincoln, Neb.—(IP)—What ought to be the record for economy on the part of college students has been set at the University of Nebraska by Charles Warner, senior in business administration, and Hubert Heigele, senior in engineering.

The two, cooking all their own meals, are gaining weight on a diet which costs them each only $3 a month.

They believe their food is whole­some and that it is good for them they prove toy going in for athletics, one for swimming, the other for wrest­ling.

Twice a week the pair makes a thick stew of beef, onions and pota­toes. This is frozen and reheated as it ik needed. And here is how the two make bread: They buy raw wheat and have it ground whole at the Col­lege of Agriculture. To this they add two cans of baking powder, sixteen pounds of raisins and six cups of

) sugar. This mixture is put away in [ a sack to be used as needed. When bread is needed ten cups of the mix­ture is taken out, mixed with a can of condensed milk, three tablespoons of lard, salt and water to make a thick batter. If eggs are selling cheaply they add four eggs to the

j batter. Then it is put in the oven. Apples and raw cabbage are used

to supplement the diet, on which the students expect to hold out until graduation.

Dr. Gerald B. Webb, of Colorado Springs, nationally known authority on lung disaeses, recently predicted that within five years tuberculosis would be a minor disease in this coun­try. He said the disease seems to be dying out in this country.

Earl Winters: "You'd never have thought I bought this car second-handed, would you?"

Lauren York: "No, I thought you made it yourself."
