T he game yesterday was by far the best seen on the home grounds this year, and was characterized all the way through by good consistent playing and the best of feeling on the part of both teams. Fishleigh w ho officiated statt d that it was one of the very cleanest games he had ever seen although hard fought from start finish. F or M. A. C. Small's p u n t ng was a feature, also his own ability and that of M c K e n na line in running back punts. T he was stopping plunges.

A. C. five-yard line, and things looked dark for the home players. T h ey decided not to let the ball go over, however, and Al ma was held. T he ball was then punted out of danger, and a battle royal once more began. T he fine stocky visitors plaving the brought out much favorable com ment and proved conclusively that the visiting team were held in high esteem by M. A. C. people in gen eral. of On a fake punt in this half Small got away for a good long gain, but DEBATING CLUB. T he most successful debate of the term, and it might be said of several terms was pulled off at last week's regular meeting. T he question of C u b an annexation is a live one, and every speaker seemed to have ab sorbed the atmosphere of the ques tion. the mechanical class room dialogue, too often evi dent with our debators, every speech was given with snap and spirit, familiarity and showing complete absolute conviction in the subject. Instead of W i th the honor of partic pating in the best debate of the year, the negative iead by G. V. Copson, supported by H. L. Kempster, re joiced in a unanimous victory over E. L. Grover and O. W. Stephen son of the affirmative. T he deci sion, rendered by P r e s. Snyder, Prof. K i ng and M r. Gunson, was perhaps contrary to public senti ment, pointing out the fact that argu ments oy the prompting factors. the debators were Instead of the debate being com pleted nt the usual hour ( e L h t) it was nearly nine when the motion for adjournment cut short the un usually g o 'd program. Not that the four debators occupied the floor all the time,—they seemed to have been e x- citement caused by the extempor aneous faculty meeting so engrossed forgotten; but t he aside from this the gains made were for the most part short ones.

Last Wednesday evening Prof. Pests Pettit gave the Hort. club an inter esting lecture on " T he Control of Insect their Natural by Enemies." He said that, excluding the death of insect pests caused by insects, disease, birds, and other there are factors that help to control these pests. These are bacterial diseases, fungus dis eases, and internal parasites. three other Bacterial diseases are common with grubs cabbage worms and silk worms. T h ey work on the internal insects chiefly, anatomy of tissues. breaking down t h e l n t e r n al F u n g us diseases are very numer ous and only insects that come to gether in colonies are acted upon by this disease to any extent. the life history of Internal parasites belong mostly to the hymenoptera and are very small. T he these parasites is very interesting as they have been found to even have par asites themselves thus having a pri mary and secondary parasite in the same host. Many of our pests can only be controlled by means of par asites. M r s. Haner spent a part of last week visiting the schools of Sagi naw and Bay City. Report of the Saginaw Normal Training H i gh School was very favorable. Four of our M. A. C. girls are doing most excellent work there in House hold Economics ; Miss Annie R o b inson and Miss Anna Finlev in Domestic A rt under the excellent management of Mrs. Mae M. Gin- gles as director. Miss Kate Coad has cooking and sewing in the same rooms, with the Parochial children who come out of their own school hours to avail the gei erous provision for them by M r.

V e ry satisfactory interest and en thusiasm is shown in the several shops and most excellent training is being given. T he work in Bay City is not as well based, and more teachers in Household Economics are sadly needed. Fine efforts are being made however, to bring to the work greater attention and farther appropriation. T w e n ty classes in all, of various subjects, were carefully covered in the visit, and the information and understanding gained from them is of direct importance to the present interests of our own work here at the College. CHICAGO ASSOCIATION. T he outing given the Chicago Alumni by H. C. Skeels recently was a very enjoyable affair. A goodly supply of eatables was on hand which was disposed of in the " Forest of A r d e n ," after which a drive of five miles was made through the woods which everyone who was fortunate enough to be on hand voted a most pleasant trip.

Only once were we refused permission to stay all night, and then the lady of the house said the " r u k a" was good enough for a Mapuche, but would not do for an Englishman.

In education there should be no or little slavish drudgery. Edison is often intensely interest ed in his work for hours and even days without interruption. T he demands of life make it de sirable for the high school to offer more studies than any one student can possibly pursue. Election on some basis seems inevitable. T he attempt to have a uniform forced curriculum has manifold and obvious disadvantages. T he principles that should gov ern in the selection of studies: 1. H u m an sciences that pertain to man as man, embracing languages, liter ature, art, history. those sciences, 2. Natural that pertain to nature, physics, chemis try, astronomy, pure mathematics, biology, physical g e o g r a p hy and zoology. T HE M. A. C. R E C O R D.
