THANKSGIVING  MILITARY. 

in 

T he  T h a n k s g i v i ng  military  took 
last  Wednesday,  N o v.  23. 
place 
T he  armory  was  draped 
flags 
and  bunting.  T he  corners  were 
artistically  arranged  with  screens, 
and  around  the  orchestra's  platform 
were  palms  and  chrysanthemums. 
T he  music,  which  was  furnished  by 
the  Germania  orchestra  of  Battle 
Creek,  was  exceptionally  fine  and 
12  o'clock  came  all  too  soon  for  the 
merry  dancers. 

T he  attendance  was  large,  there 
being  something  like  a  hundred  and 
twenty-five  or  thirty  couples  pres 
ent.  Besides  the  large  number  of 
students 
there  were  many  alumni 
and  people  from  Lansing.  A m o ng 
the  senior 
the  old  students  were 
captains,  N.  B.  Horton,  '02 ;  H.  O. 
F a r g o,  '03, and  M.  W.  Taber,  '04, 
and  several  other  officers  of  former 
years. 

More  uniforms 

than  usual  were 
in  evidence.  T h is  added  decidedly 
to  the  beauty  of 
the  hop,  for  a  mil 
itary  where  soldiers  are  in  the  ma 
jority,  as  was  the  case  at  some  of 
the  dances  last  year, is not worthy  of 
the  name.  We  must  congratulate 
the  officers  on  their  success, and  say 
to  the  chaperons,  Pres.  and  M r s.  J. 
L.  Snyder,  Prof,  and  M r s.  A.  R. 
Sawyer,  that  we  hope  it  will  be  the 
good  fortune  of  the  students  to  at 
tend  many  more 
such  militaries 
under  their  patronage. 

M.  A.  C. 58—KAZOO  0. 

Shortly  before 

ten  o'clock  on 
Thanksgiving  morning  the  M.  A. 
C.  rooters  swung  into  line  behind 
the  College  band  and  marched  10 
the  college  athletic  field  to  witness 
the  last  intercollegiate  game  of  the 
season.  T he  above  score  tells  the 
story,  for  while  the  Kazoo  boys 
played  pluckily,  they  were  unable 
to  withstand  the  rushes  of  M.  A.  C. 
who  nearly  always  gained  at  will 
when  the  ball  was  in  their  hands. 
Only  once  were  the  visitors  within 
the  goal  and 
striking  distance  of 
then  their  attempted  place  kick  was 
cleverly  blocked  by  Holdsworth. 
Several  times,  however,  one  of  their 
number  would  break  away  from  the 
mass  for  a  gain  only  to  be  stopped 
by  Small  who  was  there  for 
that 
purpose,  and  w ho  served  that  pur 
pose  to  a  T, never  allowing  his  man 
to  escape.  Capt.  Giddings,  Strate-
meyer,  Moore  and  Phelps  all  played 
good  ball  for  the  visitors,  P h e l ps 
running  back  the  ball  from  the  kick 
off  in  splendid  shape  which  showed 
his  skill  at  dodging.  He  also  did 
stopping 
very 
several  times  what  would  have  been 
a  long  gain  for  M.  A.  C. 

tackling, 

clever 

Kalamazoo  kicked  off 

to  Bell, 
w ho  returned  the  ball  10 yard",  and 
was  obliged  to  take  out  time  for  a 
wrenched  knee. 
In  two minutes  of 
play  M.  A.  C.  had  pushed  Doty 
over  for  a  touchdown. 

M c K e n na  now  kicked 

to  Post, 
who  returned  it  12  yards.  Kazoo 
was  unable  to  make  her  gains  and 
punted  to  M c K e n n a,  who  returned 
it  15 yards.  At  the  first  play  Mc-' 
Kenna  made  15  yards  more,  and 

four 

Holdsworth  added  5  more,  shaking 
tackles.  H a hn  was  then 
off 
given  the  ball  and  went  over  for  the 
next  five  points.  M. A.  C. was  sev 
eral  times  penalized  for offside  plays 
and  for  holding,  but  it  seemed  an 
easy  proposition  for  them  to  make 
up 
their  losses,  and  the  first  half 
closed  with  a  score  of  35  to  o. 

In  the  opening  of  the  second  half 
Kazoo  did  some  good  work  and  the 
start-off  was quite  interesting  Mc 
Kenna  kicked  45  yards  to  Giddings 
who  returned  the  ball  15 yards.  By 
a  series of  tackle  back  plays,  Strate-
meyer  and  A r n dt  made  gains  of  25 
the 
and  15  yards  which  brought 
ball  to  M. A. C.'s  15-yard  lire.  T he 
visitors  now 
for  a  place 
formed 
kick,  but  by  quick  charging  on'the 
part  of  M.  A.  C.  the  kick  was 
blocked  by  Holdsworth.  On  an 
exchange  of 
fumbles  M.  A.  C. 
secured  the  ball  and  by  fast  playing 
shoved  M c K e n na  over  for  a  touch 
down.  Kalamazoo  fought  hard  in 
the  second  half  and  several  times  it 
looked  as  though  she  would  reach 
the  coveted  goal,  but  M.  A.  C. 
would  brace  and  hold  her  for  downs 
before  striking  distance was  reached. 

H a hn  made  some  excellent  runs 
and  the  man with  the  ball  was  given 
the  general  h e 'p  which  has  so 
characterized  M.  A.  C.'s  work  this 
fall.  T he  line-up :

SPECIAL  THANKSGIVING 
SERVICE. 

At  8130  T h u r s d ay  morning  a 
and 
goodly 
number  of  students 
members  of  the  faculty  gathered  at 
the  chapel 
special 
service.  T he  pro 
Thanksgiving

informal 
nature  but  seemed  to  be  enjoyed  by 
all.

T he  President  read  the  one  hun

"  T h i n gs 

M r.  McAlpine  spoke  from 

the 
standpoint  of  the  student.  He  was 
thankful  first,  for  knowledge  — not 
the  knowledge  of  books  merely,  but 
for  the  knowledge  of  things  and  of 
God  and of self, all of  which  inspired 
to  better  manhood  and  womanhood. 

He  was  thankful 
for  opportuni'y, 
which  he  believed  was  limited  only 
by the person's  ambitions and t  fforts. 
Professor  Holdsworth  was  thank 
ful  for  so  glorious  a country  as  ours, 
and  he  expressed  the  opinion 
that 
next  to  being  born  a  citizen  of  the 
Uniti  d  States,  the  best  thing  was  to 
be  a  citizen  by  adoption.  He  was 
thankful  for  freedom  from  the  slav 
ery  of  sin  or  of  some  blasting  habit, 
and  il'ustrated  his  thought  by  de 
scribing  a  poor  wretch  whom  he 
saw  on  the  streets  of  London,  and 
who  gave  evidence  of  once  being  a 
man  of  intelligence  and  of  culture. 
for  the

which  God  had  provided  for  our

they  are 

T he  last  speaker  indicated  some 
of  t> e  ways  in  which  the  spirit  of 
thankfulness 
is  manifested.  W i th 
some  no  amount  of  labor,  no  trial, 
no  misfortune,  is  so  great 
that  it 
might  not have  been  greater.  T h e re 
are  people  who  believe  in  the  pesti 
lence  that  walketh  in  darkness  and 
in  the  arrow  tl  at  flieth  at  noonday, 
but  who  lie  down  at  night  and  rise 
again  in  the  moaning  with  no  fi ar 
them, 
that  either  will  come  nigh 
and

preservation.  He  then  called  atten 
tion  to  some  of  the  blessings  which 
and  which  we  could 
are  ours 
scarcely  enjoy  under  any  previous 
dispensation  or in any other  country. 
T he  President  told  of  a  conversa 
tion  had  with  the  principal  of  the 
school  which

DEATH  OF  MR.  BURDETTE. 

V e ry  seldom  does  the death  of a 
student  comparatively  unknown  to 
the  student  body  cause such a sorrow 
as  did  the  death  of  J o hn  W.  Bur-
dette.  M r.  Burdette  was  a  me 
chanical  freshman  and entered  last 
frcm  Berea,  K y.  He 
September 
was  23 years of  age,  strong  in body, 
mind,  and  character.  He  was  a 
member  of the  second  foot  ball  team, 
and  while  playing  a  practice  game 
with  the  first  team  one  week ago 
last  Wednesday  evening  he  received 
a  b u mp  on the left  side.  v  This was 
so  slight  that  he did  not  stop  play 
ing  and  the  coach  and  team  were 

not  aware  that  he had been  injured. 
He  ate supper,  and  attended  Y. M. 
C.  A.  meeting  before  going  to  his 
room.  About  ten o'clock  that  night 
he  was  taken  with  very 
severe 
p  ins  through  the  abdomen.  Dr. 
Bruegel  was  called  a;id  gave him 
some  relief.  He had pains  at  times 
but  was  about  his room  and did  not 
anticipate  anything 
serious.  On 
Saturday  he  went  to  the  college 
hospital.  W h i 'e  sitting  in a  chair 
reading  on  Monday  evening  he was 
seized  with  most  excruciating  pa ns. 
Dr.  Bruegel  was  sent  for  and he 
immedi  tely  called 
in  D r.  Haze. 
T h ey  feared  the  trouble  w as  serious. 
1 he  next  morning  Dr.  A.  D. 
Hagadorn  was  also  called  in  consul 
tation.  T he  symptoms  seemed  to 
indicate  an  internal  rupture.  Dr. 
Darling,  the noted  surgeon  of A nn 
for,  and 
Arbor,  was  telephoned 
arrived  in a few  hours. 
It was  then 
decided  that  an operation  should  be 
performed  as  speedily  as  possible. 
Mr.  Burdette  was  removed  at  once 
to  the  city  hospital,  where 
there 
were  better  facilities  for  operating. 
T he  operation  revealed  the  fact  that 
the  spleen  was  badly  ruptured, and 
that  very  great  hemorrhage  had 
taken  place.  T he  patient,  while 
very  weak,  rallied  from  the  shock, 
and  it was thought  for a  day  or  t wo 
that  he had a  fair  chance  to recover, 
but  complications  set  in  and  he 
passed  away  very  peacefully  Fri 
day  afternoon. 

His  parents, a brother,  two  sisters 
and  a  brother-in-law  were  present 
during  the last  two days  of  his  ill 
ness.  He was courageous  and  hope 
ful,  but  realizing  on  Friday  morn 
ing  the  inevitable  result,  he  gave 
words  of  affection  and  parting  to 
each  of the family  present  and  sent 
messages  of  love  to  those  at  home. 
On  Saturday  morning  the  remains 
were 
taken  to  his  home  in  Ken 
tucky.  T he Freshman  class  and a 
number  of  other  students  served  as 
an  escort  to the  station.  T he Col 
umbian  Literary  Society  of  which 
the  deceased  was a  member  sent 
Mr.  Tosh,  his  roommate  and  also 
from  Berea,  with  the funeral  party. 
Beautiful  floral  emblems  were  pre 
sented  by the College,  his  class, his 
society  and  the  Athletic  Associa 
tion. 

Memorial  exercises  were  held  by 
the  Y. M. C. A.  on Sunday  evening. 
T he  services  in  memory  of  M r. 
Burdette  began  with 
the  hymn 
" J e s us  Savior,  Pilot  me,"  followed 
by  a  prayer  by  M r. Gunson.  T he 
quartette  <then  sang  "  Safe  in  the 
A r ms  of J e s u s ."  T h e re  were  short 
ta'ks  by  President  Snyder,  M r. 
Hurst,  M r.  Moore,  M r.  Brainard, 
and  Mr.  Fisk. 

M r.  Hurst  spoke  of the  manliness 
of  his character,  his  cheerful  dispo 
sition  and  his  interest  in the Chris 
tian  w o rk  of  the Y. M. C. A.  f ie 
said  "  Mr.  Burdette,  though  always 
usy,  was  ever  ready  to listen  to any 
words  from  his  fellow 
students. 
W i th  all  those  w ho knew  him well 
he  has left  an impression  of  a  true 
life  that  will  remain  with  us  through 
out  our lives." 

Mr.  Brainard,  a  classmate,  told 
Mr. 
and 
honesty  in his work  and of his deep 
sympathy  with  his  fellows. 

Burdette's 

sincerity 

Mr.  Fisk 

spoke  of  his  fairness 
on  the  athletic  field  where  he  had 
through  a 
known  M r.  Burdette 
daily  contact.  He  said, 
" E v e ry 
action  I  have  noted  in M r. Burdette 
has  marked  him as  a  true  athlete 
and  a  gentleman.  He  was always 
fair  and  always  played  honestly. 
But  the greatest  pleasure  I  have in 

above 

his  memoryr  comes  from  the  fact 
that 
other  manly 
these 
qualities  he had  a  firm  trust in  God." 
Mr.  Moore  w ho  had  become 
acquainted  with  Mr.  Burdette  in the 
Columbian  Literary  Society,  spoke 
impressively  of  him  in  his 
very 
society  work  and the friendship  that 
had  sprung  up  during  the  short 
acquaintance.  A m o ng  other  things 
Mr.  Moore  mentioned  his  unselfish 
ness  saying,  " He  would  rather  die 
alone  than  cause  his family  the pain 
of  seeing  him  pass  from  this  world." 
His  death  makes  us  think  of  that 
expression  of  Bryant— 

"So  live that when  thy summons  comes to 

join 

The innumerable  caravan  which moves 
To that  mysterious  realm  where  each  shall 

take 

His chamber in the silent halls of death 
Thou go not like the quarry slave at night 
Scourged  to his dungeon, but sustained  and 

soothed 

By an  unfaltering  trust  approach thy grave 
Like  one who wraps  the  drapery  of his 

couch 

About  him  and  lies  down  to  pleasant 

dreams." 
President  Snyder  spoke  briefly  of 
the  Christian  courage  exhibited  by 
Mr.  Burdette  during  his  last  hours 
and  of the  faith  and  calm 
resigna 
tion  of  the  family.  No  one  could 
witness  such  a  scene,  he  said, and 
resist  the conclusion  that  it  paid  to 
be  a  Christian.  T he  Christian  fam 
ily  with  its  warm  affections,  confi 
dences,  and  sympathies  and  an un 
daunted  faith  in  a  glorious  hereaf 
ter  is the highest  point  on  earth — 
the  point  nearest  heaven.  He closed 
his  remarks by reading a short  poem 
impressively  the 
which  expressed 
feelings  of  all.  After 
the  singing 
of  " My Faith  Looks  Up to  T h e e ," 
the  andience  was  dismissed  with  a 
short  prayer  by  Mr. Hurst.
