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.

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.
