score of 4 to 0.
The game was a long sad drawn
oat affair taking two hoars and twen-
ty-ftoe miantes to play the eight and
one half innings- .It finally dwindled
^dawa to the steady pitching of the
aUbmaen of both sides, and held in
check the anxious battle,
a total ei eleven hits for the after
Mercer deserves credit for holding
dawn this team to the tow score that
she did. Among the Lather Williams
plsysrs won fve all-southern men

ability. Two all-south
an pitchers were used to hold the
Mover “Tigers” in check.
Lather Williams scored three runs
^Jn the third inning and secured their
Inst run in the seventh, none of them
being earned runs.

It was a big day for the Orange-

Dan Hammack, playing his first
game of college basegall, gave his
ankle a bod wrench near the begin
ning of the contest but remained in
the game throughout, the fast out

times out of five times at the bat,
The hitting of Codgell, Mercer’s
catcher, was a feature of the game
He connected with the pill for a trip
le, and two doubles which would
easily have gone for home runs but
for ground rules. “Smooky"Har
per played centerfield well and got
two safe hits. Second Baseman Hen

and a single. Sears, Swenson and
Shepherd held down their positions
well and came in for their share of
the hits.
For Florida, Ward, who caught,
played the best game- Hartman se
cured the only hit registered by, the
Alligators.

The Missionary Extension Commit
tee, composed of Mercer ministerial
students, is holding mission services
in various, parts of Macon ^very Sun
day.
The work is conducted under the
leadership of seven men. J. K. Wil
liams, one of the ablest men of the
campus, is chairman of the commit
tee. The other- members are L. B-
Matthews, secretary, Mike Herndon,
and O. K. Webb, song leaders. Gow
er Latimer has charge of the mission
work for the negro settlements.
Meetings are held in Central City
Park on Sunday afternoon when the
crowds gather there for their holiday
recreation- Gospel songs are sung
and prayers offered, after which one
of the young ministers preaches the
gospel. Out there in the open with
the heavens for a temple the youth
ful exhorters earnestly entreat their
hearers to turn to the Way of life.
Invitatons are given and the interest
is shown by the number of hands that
go up asking for prayer.
The work is carried on by shifts,
different members leading and
preaching each Sunday. In this way
the people hear a new messenger
each time, and the services are en
livened.
Down in the negro settlements the
“fellows” go also, and tel of the
glad tidings of the Savior to their
ciark-skinned brethren. The colored
people are said to be especially ap
plicative, • t'owding around the
y«ig missionaries, anl eagerly list- -
o .ng to ever/ word t!ru is uttered
Thoiph exceedingly resp?ctful, thev
ere willing to join in the singing, and

fort
By carrying <Jn this mission work
M -rcer University is realizing in the
best .way .possible the aims of her
founders and supporters. President
Weaver and and the faculty of the
school of Christianity feel that-there
is no reason why Mercer should not
be a radiating center of spiritual
power and missionary activity.
In fact there is a general feeling
that Mtrcer is beginning to fulfill
larger sense than ever before
the University’s high destiny as a
source of Christain influence and
leadership. For all have caught the
vision thht Mercer can and must hold
high the torch of a flaming zeal for
the salvation of a lost world.
