Thus., Oct. 17 — Dr. V. F, Schwalm talked to the World Service Group this evening This talk begins a series which he expects to give, The general theme will be Christian Service and Personal Evan-gellulion.

Dr Schwalm opened the discussion with the statement “Religion Is the humna need for a superior being''. The mission of the organized church is to minister to our spiritual needs. The needs pointed out were: a hun-gering for God, a desire for forgiv-eness of sin, power for larger service and assurance of eternal life. Human beings feel that they need an answer to the "Whence? Why! and Where?" of life. The first place looked to for guidance through life is the church If lt fails in any measure the charge Is always against lt. Our work is to present such charges.

Ida Lengel was elected secretary-treasurer of the group In fill the vacancy made by Milton Early's resignation.

PROF. H. H. NININGER COLLECTING MANY SPECIMENS

Profeesor H. H. Nininger of Mc -Pherson college has found a great many biology specimens , on his tour of Mexico, last week. He passed through the great Mexican desert last week, going from Monterrey to Torrean. Nininger observed many Interesting sights on this weeks lap of his journey.

In the Mexican desert Mr. Nininger watched closely the life of the people who reside there. Their life Is probably the most primitive of any In Mexico. They use no shoea on their feet, and they live In grass houses. Their living is made by making rope

from one of their native crops.

After Nininger reached Torrean he and his interpreter left on the train for Jimenez where they expect to find some materials. Jimenez was the tenter of the recent Mexican revolu-tion. and he reports that a great part of the village is torn down as the result. He will spend two days here.

From Jimenez he returned to Tor-rean where he started by auto for Saltillo. Here he spent the week end. Professor Nininger and his Interpreter both were sick here. However, the e sickness lasted for only a short time. He also visited a Mexican college In Saltillio. He reports that they have a splendid museum there.

The two men will leave Saltillo for San Louis Potosi In a few days Here they Will collect some materials and travel on to Mexico City.

Nininger finds all of the Mexican roads very rough and this necessity slow traveling He reports that they camp out In the open because the smaller villages are so filthy. He

says that besides many valuable

specimens of repiles, insects and

plants he has some splendid views of

Mexican life in moving pictures.

McPherson wins from OTTAWA ON HOME FIELD

BULLDOGS 21, OTTAWA 0

Bulldogdom, Fri, Oct. 18—The McPherson football team left the local athletic field, this afternoon, tri-umphhant over the Ottawa University eleven, by virtue of a 21-0 score, brought to be by completely outplay-ing the visitors on every detail of the game, thereby taking their positions next to the top in the Kansas Confer-ence. Early in the game the Bulldogs unveiled a winning variety of foot-ball, which caused them to score during the first three minutes of play. The Bulldog machine was working almost perfectly, the Interference was great, always clearing the path for a long end run, featuring either Non-ken or Miller carrying the ball for a long gain, sometimes thirty or forty yards. Householder and Wray, of the visitors' backfield furnished several real thrills for McPherson enthusi-asts when they carried the ball dan-gerously near the home goal line and threatened to score. McPherson's line was almost invinsible on defensive plays and it charged like a backfield on the offensive plays, plowing great holes in the visiors line through which many long gains were made. Lawrence Barngrover never failed to advance the pigskin with his mighty line plunges when it was hard to go around the end for substancial gains. Hochstrassor, Barngrover and Miller were In possession of the oval at the times when touchdowns were scor-ed. A pain from Miller to Hochstas-ser In the first quarter gave us six points, in the third period L. Barn-grover plunged over the line for a counter and in the flunt period Miller snatched Bradley's pass for a like number of points. Following each touchdown. Miller's too was good for an extra point.

Early In the last quarter the visit-ors placed the ball on the Bulldog 15-yard line and threatened to score, but began to gain after being held for downs, they lost the ball and were backed clear across the field to see their opponents score the third time, however they remained game to the end, The game was one of the cleanest played here for a long time and the score carried with it the widest margain of any played in the conference so far this season.

No one in the city escaped hearing the bark of the pups, after every one had ruined his loft vocal apparatus saving his right one for the game the next day, the south show was rushed in ahead of the

band, and all interested in the wild west show. The evening ended with very one feeling as if they had won the fight

THOSE " CUTE" LITTLE FRESHMAN CAPS

The freshman have been very loyal this fall In wearing their little

red caps. They are to be congratulated for they have received the In-spiration of the ''School of Qualtiy" that it is their duty to wear their freshman caps till the Thanksgiving game. Only a few times have they bean reminded that they are to wear their caps—not carry them In their pockets.

It has been rumored about the campus that the freshmen were going to meet and agree to discard their "little red Caps". If such a rumor manifests itself Into a reality and our freshman were to break loose some morning without their traditional caps—what would happen? Their loyalty would be broken—trouble would arise-—a tradition would be discarded.

What are traditions worth? Tradition tells us that Harvard and Yale an athletic enemies, that K. U. shall compel Its freshmen la wear their caps till the final whistle of the Thanksgiving game, that M. U’s “Tiger" shall roar against the "Jay Hawk". What are they worth to the student who has gone on Into the world of achievement? Those traditions are the lingerers In his memory of the unforgotten four years. They are the ’'spirt" and "fire" of one's enthusiasm. They are the pleasant features that bind a group together for one tense—one purpose—unity. They are the life of the "School of Quality"

If our freshmen caps were to go, and enforcement eliminated, a memory long cherished by those who have passed on through would dwindle and fade Into the distance as the dying embers of a fire. With them would go the memories of a fruitful past when freshmen were men—when they wore their caps.

Spare the rod—and caps go unworn—and the freshman la spoiled. He Is spoiled In temperament, spoiled in attitude, and spoiled for the sake of the Institution. He becomes haughty, and a sense of loftness Is prevailed upon his personality, J. Crosby Chapman and George S. Counts tell us that the personality of a man is revealed by the sum total of his specific responses lo particular situations.

This situation Is one that is calling for response. Students are voicing their sentiments, Freshmen are saying that If it wore not for their caps what means of a natural attainment of a spirited nature could be accomplished, Those who have gone through the same experience are wondering —yes, McPherson College could live without it, but— could that prevailing attitude of animated spirit, that thread of unity and growth, be lost and an abundant life of enthusiasm remain?—lt Is written.

PARTS OF MAMMOTH NEW ADDITION TO MUSEUM

Fri, Oct, 18—An exceptionally well-preserved tibia of a Mammoth was found In a sandpit twelve miles

North west of McPherson and pre-sented to the museum by Mr. and Mrs. John Akers on whose farm it was found. They also found a tooth belonging to the same kind of animal and a vertebra, the Identifica-tion of Which Dr. H. J, Harnly, curator of the museum, is not sure.

The Mammoth is a gigantic animal living many thousands of years ago In a pre-glacial period, known amoung geologists as the Tertiary. This huge animal probably belonged to a species somewhat resembling the elephant.

Dr. Harnly has spent a great deal of time In enlarging and Improving the museum. He ls head of the biology department of the college and will give the main address to the biological study group at the Wichita division of the state teachers meeting the first part of November.

In a recent letter from H. Clark Brumbaugh, B. S. '28, he gives the following statement:

"I have completed the work nec-

cessary for the Master of Arte degree In organic chemistry with the exception of completing my thesis, and am working on some the preliminary research for my Ph. D. I shall leave for the east and a visit to old M. C. about January first”,

Mr. Brumbaugh Is attending Le-

land Stanford University of Californiala.

Life Is Just one fool thing after another; love is Just two fool things after each other.

PROF. R. E, MOHLER SPEAKS ON MEXICO IN Y. M. C. A.

Tues., Oct. 15—The moral and religious life of Mexico was briefly dis-cussed here this morning in Y. M. by professor R. E. Mohler.

He spoke from the studies he has made and from his observations while in that country the past summer,

Possibly 25,000 years ago a tribe of Indians lived In Mexico. They were, very religions for they built pyda-mids larger of base than the Egyp-tian pyramids though not so high.

A second tribe of Indiana, of which little is known, probably subdued them. In turn this tribe was subdued by the Aztecs who were there When the white man came.

One of their religious rites was performed on the Sacrificial stone on' top of one of the pyramids. Six priestd led victim after victim up con-iminutsly for four days each year

When the Catholics came they began a building program. The most successful priest was the one who built the greatest number of beauti-ful church houses. As a result in one town having one hundred ninety families there are two hundred ten Catholic churches not one of which is as poor as the McPherson church house. These were built by the people working -four days each week for the church.

The priests were .run out of Mexico three years ago. They had for many years' dictated to the government until It became offensive. The government made the priests register and make certain agreements or cease functioning as priests. The priests refused to register so were forced to give up their Jobs. Last summer they came back and agreed in the conditions.

The moral life of the Mexicans in some thing of a contradiction. Sex^ morality Is at a low ebb. On the other hand sacks of money are carried be-tween banks with no thought of rob bery. And yet professor Mohler's friend was relieved of his pocket book while In one of the churches, Lottery and graft abound near the church and even within the church

Mon., Oct 13—Rev Keller pastorof the Methodist Church at Arkansas City, addressed the chapel assembly this morning. His theme was "The Dimensions of Life", in his opening remarks he classed himself with the rest of the optimistic Methodist preachers by stating that modern youth is all right and the world is no worse than ever.

Rev, Keller Insists that life has four dimensions. Length Is good, but not the ultimate end; breadth Is de-sirable but not to he gained by flattening out; depth Is much needed In the present day of surface living; heighth, real leaders, men of vision is the one quality that distinguishes the few.

CECIL IN CHAPEL

representative of the National Associ-ation of Book Publishers, spoke in chapel this morning. He aimed that books are our tools and as essential to the student as a hammer to the carpenter. To be efficient we must select good tools. Books are our friends, constant. helpful, non-critic at, always willing to serve. Trashy reading was denounced bitterly, In closing, Mr. Cecil said, "Books and hours spent in reading will mean a Well rounded out life, greater efficiency In work, and a larger income".

BETHEL THIS FRIDAY

Tues. Oct. 22—-McPherson football fans will be entertained by the Bulldogs on the local field again Friday afternoon, with the Bethel Col-lege Mennonites furnishing the opposition. If dope means anything, the Bulldogs have a slight edge on the Newton crew again this year. An early season with Ottawa spoilled a 14-0 defeat for Bethel and last Friday the Bulldogs showed themselves to be too much for the Ottawa Unm.

Two years ago the Bulldogs gave the Railroad gang a 60-6 ''lickin' on the local fluid and last year 23-0 on their own field. The Bethel crow is a tricky one and nothing will be settled until after the game Friday, however the Bulldog rank in the Kansas conference will not be affected because this Is not a conference game.

Surely such conditions, exams and low grades will follow me the real of my life and i shall dwell in the Eng-lish class forever. -

An extensive forensic program is being planned by the Pi Kappa Delta at the Emporia Teachers college this year. An internural program will, be carried out which will Include men’s and women's debate, extemporaneous speaking and oratory. Handsome tro-phies are to be presented to organi-zations whose representative wins these contests and silver pins are offered to Individual winner*.

BULLDOG GRIDSTERS

SPORT NEW JERSEYS

Alumni Gym., Thurs., Oct. 17— Coach Gardner handed out fifteen brand new red jerseys to his football lads here this afternoon to be worn, first, In the Ottawa game tomorrow. Besides being new, these jerseys are different from any worn by a Bulldog team In recent years, being wanted crimson colored garments, bearing large blocks of white duck on the front surrounding a huge letter M, and carrying eight inch felt numerals on the back.

This new apparel, of Spalding make, gives the Canine crew a fine appearance. In fact they will look like a championship bunch tomorrow afternoon when they go onto the fluid.

FROM OTHER HILLS

Wiliam Allen White, famed as Author and critic, and editor of the Emportia Gazette, has recently made an addition of 300 books to the ' browsing library'' which he originated at the College of Emporia several years ago. The books cover a variety of subjects and range In type from biography to scientific discus-sions.

M. C. COEDS HAVE A

THRILLING EXPERIENCE

A huge Iron door swung shut Sat, urday with a clang and, shrinking in ill-concealed fright, two McPher-son college coeds heard the Jangle of the keys which locked the doors of freedom behind them and made them, for the moment. Inmates of the Lamar prison,

Behind a double padlocked Iron door in a barred cell room, six or eight petty criminals slunk, And in their midst two handsome men (whose lives will he snuffed out like no much air according to the decision of the court) calmly walked.

Abehler, a man of medium also, said nothing to the visitors, but Roister, a tall, broad brunet who would have ,been handsome except for a somewhat mutilated lower Jaw, cynically observed.

“Well, I suppose you are surprised to see real human beings, aren't you? You probably expected to see horned beasts chewing brimstone and spitting fire!”

Five minutes later the girls were relieved to find themselves on the street again. But not until they had called at the city jail and had seen the notorious Ralph Fleagle did their curiosities feel satisfied.

Fleagle, whose trial Is In process today, according to his fair Saturday visitors might easily have passed for a bank president or some other business official of distinction. His silvery white hair and unfinishing grey-blue eyes seemed to loud an sir of dignity to their possessor. He did not cringe or cower, His fate and that of his brother Jake who is as yet uncaptured is the chief topic for conversation in the environs of La -tour,
