The committees have been arrang

girls are .provided with a way to
come out for the beginning of the
program. A message has been re-
* ceived from President Foster, of Bes,
*1* Tift, stating that the girls can
come. However at the present time
word - has not been received as to
: how many are to be . expected. Most
of the members of the junior and
senior classes will likely be down.
The program, which begins at 8:30
will- start with a debate between the
two societies. This will be follow

trfll be held in the gymnasium. After
fee ball game the visitors’will be

President Wester was pleused, he
said, that , the plau had been proposed

the faculty. He regarded that as a good
oine». eR expressed the view that no
government Itas strength except as that
strength is given, to it by the governed.
Whether or not the m*thod proposed
will succeed depends upon the eordia 1

Hon. Warren Grice,- former Attorney of

and operation of our government.
“The United States was not made a

many .difficulties in forming this gov

One of the outstanding features
of the evening was the- play presented
by Miss Francis Russell, co-ed at
Mercer and Messrs. Jamas Ivey, D.
Cason, L. D. Tyner, Wilton, and W.
E. Wood. . H. J. Johnson. of the
Montague Union of Mercer, the writ
er of the play, deserves much honor
for writing a play which so truly
depicts the helpfulness of the B. Y.
P. U. to the church.
The first act of the play presents
the Pastor, Mr. Tyner, who does not
believe in the early conversion of
young people but later on is persua
ded. by Truth, Mr. Wood, that that
is the reason why Pleasure (Mr. Ca.
son). Ambition (Mr. Wilson), Ser
vice, (Mr. Ivey) and Lif| (Mias Rus
sell) have forsaken him. At last
Truth wins Life to its side and then
all of the others come into the
church. The missionary side of the
play is. shown in the last act when
the pastor calls for volunteers ' in
helping him with the result that
each gladly surrenders himself for
service.
Writtee by Request.
This play is to be given at the
Regional Convention to be held at
Douglas, Ga., the latter part of
March as requested by Frank Leavell
some time ago. It was expressly writ

ed so much to the B. Y. P. U. work.

writer is “Life.” .

Prospects For Winners Bright.
Prospect* for a winning combina
tion this year, ike all other colleges
are exceedingly bright For the
first time in many years there is
fine neucleus of old, well-trained ara-
terial on hand for the shaping up of
a championship organisation.
As battery work will attract the
most attention from Cody this week
and next prospects for horiers and
catchers should prove interesting.
Three seasoned hurlers fiom former
teams are in school with a host of
others promising to deliver the
"goods." Two or three good men
are in line for catchers. The three
veteran hurlera, all of whom wi]l
spend Jheir second year on the team
this Spring are “Tige" Stone, a Ma
con boy and recently chosen captain
of'the team; Malcolm Graybill of.
Oconee. Ga,. and Ronald Lanier of
Cuthbert. All three are in fine phy-
ical condition even this early in the
season and all have expressed them
selves as being confident that they
are in for a good season on the slab
for Mercer this spring. Besides these
men, there is a hoot of new material.
Among the latter lot. Bob Swain ap

that Swain will make good with a
bang at Mercer. “Leek” declares
that Swain will grove a wonder in
