SAVED BY A BASKET

Wesleyan came near being ourhoodoo again Why it is that wecan defeat State and State canput it all over Wesleyan and then0 W U can defeat us in turnor give us an awfully close runis a question entirely unanswer-able Anyhow Wooster won avery close though not at all un-

deserved victory last Monday ev-ening Feb 8 after having de-

feated State at Columbus by afair margin the previous Satur-day evening Feb 6

As the team returned so verymuch later than was expectedand as the paper was compelledto go to press soon after only afew points can be given aboutthe game Wesleyan kept asmall lead throughout the entirecontest but this served only asan inspiration to our men whowished to tantalize Delawareshopes and then utterly crushthem Fearing lest they shouldbe over- confident and not playwith a purposeinmind the var-sity men allowed the first half toclose with the score 16- 12 inWesleyans favor After hardplaying in the second half andwith the score 25- 20 Fulton andPalmer scored and Beck repeatedhis performance in the Hiramgame by securing a basket on a

terms neat and prettyWhile Dippy was unlucky

in his shooting he was everywhere present and his passingwhich was perfect as usual canonly be described in this wordhe was lightning fast

Brint held the famous Rigby to three field baskets Twoof these came early in the gamewhen Sam confused Rigby withPostle and was diligently guarding Dippys man Rigby is afirst real battle this season and

the state captain came out under good player but he was guardedneath Gries and Jacobs did some too closely to prove it in this game

Brint is surely there when itgreat passing that netted baskets

Beck put Atkinson States muchtouted guard out of runningStates ugly spirit broke out andReferee Rickey was subjected tosome unnecessary insult Great

long shot in the last minute justin time for a grand finale

comes to close effective guard-ing

Beck played an exceptionallyfast and strong game against At-

kinson who is serving his secondyear as a forward on the Stateteam In his style of play Beckclosely resembled Jacobs andgave exhibition of fast passing

are given in the regular way tohave the McKinley MemorialBell summon the faculty andstudents to chapel each dayWould that not be a customworth instituting nd is it notprobable that the sound of thatbell each day would prove bene-ficial by putting the students in-

to a better attitude for dailyworship and by inspiring themwith a deeper love for old Woos-

ter and with a desire for higherthoughts and nobler aims

Thursday is the Day fPrayer for Colleges and will bewidely observed Let everytrue Christian student upon thatday lay aside the burdens of thecurriculum and all irrelevant orirreverant words thoughts andactions and enter into the spiritof the day May our prayersjoin with those of other studentsand rise as an incense to thethrone above The blessings up-

on christian education will sure-ly be more abundant after suchan offering if it be presented inthe proper spirit

Wre can but add our voice tothe general and deserved praiseof the program and performersof last Thursday evenings enter-tainment In reply to the often-asked question Whats in aname we would say a guaran-tee of all that is most excellentwhen the name is that of Kath-arine Ridgeway the readerThough Miss Ridgeway has ap-

peared before Wooster audiencesfive times her popularity doesnot wane but rather growsstronger Nothing but praisecan be given to both her choiceof selections and her rendition ofthem The evening was madestill more enjoyable by the workof Miss Bridge the pianist whocontributed several piano num-bers of high merit Nothing

short of a doctors orders will beable to keep those who haveheard the Katharine RidgewayCompany or even heard of itfrom the next performancewhich may be given in Wooster

From the sale of tickets andthe favorable talk heard on allsides the coming preliminaryoratorical contest will be aboutthe biggest thing of its kind heldin Wooster for many moonsEverybody seems to be goingMusic between rounds Dontbe left out Join the crowd

J JIt may seem to some that we

say keep off the grass everyweek just to have something tosay This is not the case andthe matter is becoming too ser-ious a one to joke about Ourcampus must be preserved andthe only way to do it is to keepon the walk and off the grassDont cut across to save timeDont think that perhaps theground is frozen and no damagewill be done Dont clo a lot offool things or think a lot of foolthoughts But DO use thewalks Form the habit of walk-ing where you should FollowJames let us hope he stays onthe walks and launch yourselfwith a strong initiative dontthink you have to go on thedamp ground just because you

launch yourself never suf-fer an exception to occur- thatis al ways use the walks use thevery first possible opportunity toacton your resolution even ifits necessary to cut a class in or-

der to learn to stroll on thewalks and lastly keep the fac-ulty of effort alive in you by alittle gratuitous exercise everyday that is give your will alittle gratuitous exercise everyday and in this case your feet al-

so For appearances sake keepoff the grass Think on thesethings

Though the signal bells rungby the electric clock are moremodern yet few of us regret thefact that the clock is out of or-

der and the chapel bell summonsus to each recitation There issomething about the sound of achapel bell which inspires oneand one grows to love to hear itIt is said that at Kenyon duringthe Civil War after the call forvolunteers had been made oneday and many had decided to goto the defense of the Union theboys remained at the college tillthe next clay just to hear the oldchapel bell once more Perhapsthe sound of that chapel bellthrough many long years has in-

spired and fostered the spirit forwhich Kenyon is so well knownWould it not be possible evenafter the signals for recitations

Mr J F Garvin was the lead-

er of the Y M C A meetingon last Wednesday evening andby the goodly number presentan excellent meeting was beinganticipated and in this all whoattended were not disappointedThe subject of the evening was

How to Make Christ Real Inthe scripture lesson which wastaken from the second chapterof 1 Cor the leader used the20th Century New Testamentwhich simplified the thought andmade it much clearer than asfound in the old edition

The leader gave some verythoughtful and interesting state-ments upon the subject andclosed his remarks by sayingthat if we wish to make Christreal we must have Christ in usand then give Him to othersDuring the latter part of themeeting a large number took theopportunity afforded them to ex-

press their thoughts upon thematter Mr Williams a re-

turned missionary from Chinawas present and gave a shorttalk One new member wastaken into membership in theperson of Mr Delmer R Rees

Y W C A

The subject chosen for themeeting of Y W C A on Feb3rd was the Lord of the SabbathEvelyn Lucas lead the discussionof this important subject andgave some very interestingpoints She said that aside fromethical reasons for keeping theSabbath there are scientific reas-ons All scientists and physi-cian of today agree that one dayof rest in seven is absolutely nec-

essary If we who profess to beChristians do not remember the

Sabbath day to keep it holy wedeny our Lord and Master whois Lord of the Sabbath and giveground for criticism of the relig-ion which we profess

When the meeting was openedfor general discussion a greatmany took part Mrs Gingrichgave quite an interesting ac-

count of the Sabbath clay whichhad been most beneficial to her

The subject was so practicaland the interest of all present sogreat that the meeting was verysuccessful

For instance we may regard Lin-coln as a man of letters Some peo-

ple think of Lincoln merely as alarge uncouth and comparative-ly ignorant man Yet eventhough his education met witha great many obstacles veryhard to surmount Lincoln be-

came a great man of lettersProfessors followed him in hiscampaigns in order to get thebeauty of his expression Hismarvelous diction was remarkedapon by the English and Euro-

pean press His speeches werelistened to by ignorant and well-

educated alike Both found inhis statements thoughts whichthe least educated could compre-hend Surely above all we cansay Lincoln was a man of letters
