RECEPTION FOR DEC. 9
Stage la All Set For Fraternity
Hall Events.
the
The stage is ell set for. the annual*
Pan-Hellenic reception, which is to be
held in the fraternity halls tomorrow
evening beginning at 9 o'clock. The
reception is the most outstanding
event on Mercer University's social
calendar during the college session,
all the chapters on the campus taking
part
Hundreds of guests have been in
vited from all parts of Georgia and
the South. At least a hundred college
girls will be present, together with a
number of their faculty.
A variety of refreshments are to be
| served, each chapter using their own
originality in selecting their eats; Mu
sic for the occasion will be furnished
| by the Six Society Syncopaters.
Following are the guests from Me
an: Misses Katherine Willingham,
world staggers round, ■ like a
drunkard in town;
Bearing its heavy load
Of fool-hardy mien, who’re living in
stn '
And treating the widest road;
They’re digging for gold, their bodies! 4
are sold, / *
They’re seeking after pleasure^ P
The moments fly past and the sting
of the asp, \ ,
Only makes them hoard their treas
ure.
Some men complain of the literary
fame
Of men who’ve gone before,
And declare them no good, “there
should have stood
Our men,’’ of worldly lore.
They strangle the world and- set it to
whirl
On pivots of degradation;
They’re a parasite crew, their .days
should be few
In order to preserve our nation.

But what’s to be done. to curb this
fun-,
Just fun' is what they think it,
When the world’s so. full where’s your,
pull:
To.help them out' of the pit?
When you waste all your time and
weary your mind
Pleading With heedless men
Your spirit ebbs low, but to others
you show ' •
That you’ve done your best again.
I long for the day when men will pay
'the debt they owe to God, -
Who has spared their life, through a
world of strife,
And guards tliem neath the sod.
Every man should strive to be a bee
in the hive,
Helping to All. the-comb,
For his-life depends 6n hjs dividends,
When'he reaches eternal home.

R. L. Brantley
Y, M. C. A. NOTES
By Milledg* Leach.
I
Rsbun Brantley spoke at veapar
services I last Friday evening. Hia
subject was “Fanaticism.”
The following Wednesday’s service
wee led by R. P. Ford,, ministerial
tudent. The speaker said that he
would not like to be a flea nor a cat’s
paw, and illustrated by ancient fables
why he should not like to be.
Vespers were hot held Thursday on
account of Thanksgiving.
The speakers for next week are,
“Red” Milford, Tuesday night; Dr.
B. Williams, Wednesday ; Charlie
Berryman, Thursday.
Jello de -Beanus Stacombum Consump-
timo ,
Was'an all-round ladies’ man from the
very word go.
With hia first long pants on the street
he took his stand
And- soon had them all eating eagerly
from his hand.
Now Sad Burdis Timidio' el Halfus
de Witt
With the ladies was recognized as a
distinct missflt.
He would blush to his toes at the very
mention of flirt,
And run half a mile at the rustle of
a skirt. ^ • ;■ >
But Dame Fortune is a hard mistress
and it is amusing to note
What strange medicine she pours
down a fellow’s throat.
For Consumptimo is now an old bach
elor, cranky and odd.
While Halfus has already planted
four wives beneath the sod.
DEBATERS GALORE
When Coach. Cody , called football
practice this Fall, over a half hun :
dred men responded to his call, and
rightly so. Twice the number should
have beet) on hand. But that is 1 his
tory. now and a new field is about to
be entered, and' it is a field that is
equally as important fo the individual
and university as is the fleld of foot
ball and other athletics.
When chairman Montague of the
debating council .issued his call for
intercollegiate debaters, there was a
hearty response of over half ■ a hun
dred men seeking positions'on Mer
cer’s forensic teams.
All Mercer should rejoice in the
fnct that her. eons are so prompt in
answering every call that goes to
ward building up a great university.
Athletics' are indispensable. Debating
is indispensable, So then, let iis con
tinne to go forward in both. As
student, harmonize yourself to lit
into all the activities of college life
and thereby benefit yoUrself and en
courage .the growth of these activi
ties.’ .* • -f
Be on hand this afternoon at the
debating tryoht and cheer the fel
lows oil. Let them know you are be
hind them as you have let our foot
ball team know you Were behind
them.
A PROBABLE CURE
Might this not be a- cure for the
kickers on the campus who take no
part in university activities, do not
support the university organisations,
and then attempt to compare our Uni
versity unfavorably with others?
“All Freshmen at West Virginia
Univaraity must he actively partici
pating in some recognised college ac
tivity within two weeks after school
or explain to the Student- Council
some logical reason for hot doing
*•" ’ , v ’ -•
It would be nn interesting and prob
ably very worth While experiment,
and wo would like to see it tried. Do
wo hear 1 some old studahta immedi
ately csying “iafringement of person
al rights” or, “you can't force us to
if wo don’t want to,” and prophesy
ing defeat oftbe very purpose hoiked
for? It wouldn’t work that way at
all. Freohmen would readily fall in
with the idea, we believe, if it were
storied the beginning of the aeaaioii;
and ones started M would be an ae-
thing.—Reveille.
