advantage  in  the  first  ha'f,  whi1e  the

OLIVET  RESERVES  VS.  M. 
A.  C.  RESERVES. 

In  a  game  that  was  one  way  most 
of  the  time,  the  M.  A.  C.  second 
the  Olivet  reserves 
team  won  from 
Monday  nig'  t  by  a  score  of  15  t o o. 
.  In  the  first  half  M.  A.  C.  made  her 
first  score  after  she  had  kicked 
to 
Olivet  and  held  her  for  downs  on 
three  attempts.  Another 
the  first 
touchdown  was  made  this  half. 
In 
the  second  half  Olivet  played  a 
stronger  game  and  held  the  farmers 
for  downs  several  times.  T he  feat 
the  good 
the  game  were 
ures  of 
gains  by  Bates, Burdette, and  Smith 
of  the  M.  A.  C.  Bates  was  good 
for  from  5  to  15  yards  nearly  every 
time  he  was  given  the  ball.  Once 
the  ball,  and  after 
Smith  fumbled 
running  back  after 
it,  then  made 
three  yards  around  Olivet's  left  end. 
Olivet  was  much 
lighter  than  M. 
A.  C.,  but  put  up  a  plucky  fight  to 
the  end.

line  of  propelling  ca-s by  alternating 
current.  Most  electric  cars  now-a-
days  are  supplied  with  direct  current 
of  500  volts  for  their  propulsion,  and 
at that  voltage  the distance  is  limited 
to  less  than  10  miles  at  which  cars 
can  be  run. 
It  has  long  been  the 
desire of  Electrical  Engineers  to  pro

Mr.  Arnold  was  not  discouraged

man  been  wanted  he  would  have 
been  hard  to  find.  N ot every  gradu 
ate,  nor  every 
farmer,  nor  every 
teacher  can  successfully  handle  this 
new  problem  ;  the  way  is  not  yet 
worked  out,  and much  original  work 
must  be  done  before  a  system  is 
perfected. 
I  wish  more  of  our 
young  men on the  farms,  and  more 
particularly  those  w ho  are  leaving 
them  for  mediocre  positions  in town 
might  but  realize  the  opportunities 
that  are open  to  them  through  the 
doors  of  the  agricultural  colleges, 
when  to  their  early  farm  experience 
they  add the  trained  head  and  hand 
that  comes  from  the  college  course, 
but  remembering  that  the  course  is 
a  means  to  an end,  not  an  end  in 
itself.

But 

'tis  men  that  are  wanting, 
not  oppoitunity,  from  farm  hands to 
bank  presidents. 

At  our state  fair  I  had  charge  of 
a  working  dairy,  with  four  of  our 
former 
students  carrying  on  the 
several  operations  of the dairy  while 
answered 
I  explained 
questions  and  outlined  the  work  of 
the  agricultural  courses.  Our  Fair 
Board  have  provided  ample  room 
for  the  work,  with  an  amphitheater 
seating  several  hundred  people  fac 
ing  our  space.

T he  curious,  the  tired,  and  those

to  several  hours

listening  and
