that  ancient  publication  might  be  of

Its  issue  was  the  outgrowth  of  a 
series  of  bulletins  written  and  posted

T he  interest  taken  in  them  led  some

ORATORICAL  CONTEST. 

In  the  annual  contest  of  the  Mich 
igan  Oratorical  League  held 
at 
Hillsdale,  Friday  evening,  March 
1,  the  first  place  was  won  by  Albert 
W a l r a th  of  Hillsdale  college  on  the 
of 
" T he  Evolution 
oration

Second 
place,  by  R ay  Norton  of  Albion 
college,  who  had 
for  his  subject 
" T he  Spirit  of  Commercialism," 
while  Olivet's  representative,  A.  L. 
A s h b y,  was  given  third  place.  H is 
subject  was  " T he  M an  w ho  Toils." 

T he  contest  was  an  exceptionally 
strong  one.  E v e ry  speaker  showed 
that  he  had  given  his  subject  care 
ful  consideration  and  had  prepared 
his  oration  in  such  a  manner  that  in 
no  instance  was  there  hesitation  in 
delivery.  T he  oration  delivered  by 
M r.  W.  E.  Piper  of  M.  A.  C.  en 
titled  " As  Thyself"  was  given  in  a 
manner  that  was  a  decided  credit 
both  to  the orator  and  to the  college. 
F u r t h e r m o r e,  it  was  splendidly  re 
ceived  by  the  audience.  M r.  Piper 
seemed  to  catch  the  interest  of  his 
hearers  and  to  hold  it  as  well  as  any 
other  contestant,  and  better 
than 
several. 

T he  decision  of  the  judge  was,  as 
is  not  unusual,  somewhat  of  a  sur 
prise.  pThose  present  from  M.  A. 
three  men  as  prob

able  winners,  excluding  their  own 
representative,  and  of  the  three  they 
picked  but  one  was  included  in 
the 
final  decision  of  the  judges.  T he 
man  who  won  first  place  had  a  pleas 
ing  delivery  and  was  graded  excep 
tionally  high  in composition  by  three 
of  the  judges. 

T he  manner  in which  the event  was 
conducted  by  Hillsdale  was  excep

W I L L I AM  K.  P I P E R. 

Friends,  all  about  us  are  signs 
that  our  national  life  is  menaced  by 
an  insidious  foe.  To  our  ears  come 
warning  cries  from  those  w ho  note 
the  advance  of  the  enemies  of  our 
social  and  political  liberties.  Seeing 
clearly,  hearing  plainly,  we,  as  true 
Americans,  are  stirred  with  the  re 
solve  to  act.  We  feel  the  thrill  of 
devoted  patriotism,  and  desire 
to 
give  our  best  service,  as  our  fathers 
they 
gave  their  lives,  for  the  land 
have  left  to  our  protection—a  holy 
charge,  not  lightly  given  nor  lightly 
to  be  cast  away,  but  to  be  cherished, 
and  bequeathed  to  posterity  the  bet

T he  feature  of 

the  election  was 
the  vote  for  football  manager,  but 
in  all, 
interest  was  shown 
much 
which  is  just  what  has  been  desired 
for  a  long  time.  T he  fact  that  360 
votes  were  cast  shows  something  of 
the  interest  taken  in  the  election. 

HORT. CLUB. 

M r.  Gunson  addressed  the  Hort. 
Club  last  Wednesday  evening  on 
his  experiences  at 
road  making. 
Progress  and  human  agencies  make

were  served. 

Prof.  S h aw  will  speak  next  week

cordially  welcome. 

A  very  interesting  meeting  was 
led  by  Miss  Mary  Allen  last  T h u r s 
day  evening.  T he 
subject  was 
Congo-Free-State. 

Miss  Allen  told  us  of  the  geog

Miss  Rutherford  gave  a  talk  on 
this 

relation

M r.  Chas.  H e r m a nn  gave  a  very 
practical  talk  before  the  association 
last  Thursday  evening  ;  these  talks 
are  specially  forceful  when  coming 
from  men  who  have  gone 
through 
our  college  and  known  of  the  strug 
gles  and  difficulties  of  the  students. 
Prof.  Smith  gave  a  very  interesting 
and  forceful  talk  at  the  union  meet 
ing  Sunday  night.  T h e re  was  a 
good  atfendance  at 
this  meeting. 
Senator  Bates  was  to  have  spoken 
in  the  civil  war, 
on  his  experiences 
but  he  was  unable  to  do  so  because 
of  sickness,  but  we  hope  to  get  him 
in  a  few  weeks. 

N e xt  Thursday  evening  at  the  Y. 
the 
M.  C.  A.  meeting  will  be  held 
annual  election  of  officers,  it  is  to  be 
hoped 
there  will  be  a  very

DEBATING  CLUB. 

T he  Debating-  Club  met 

last 
T h u r s d ay  evening for an interesting 
debate  on  the  question 
'Resolved 
that  the  present  system  of  taxing 
tends  to  destroy  our 
timber  lands 
forests."  R. Lyon  and  C. H.  Goetz 
upheld  the affirmative  while  H.  H. 
Musselman  and W.  C.  Spratt  de 
fended  the  negative,  and  for  inex 
perienced  debators,  all  did very  well. 
W.  C.  Spratt  will  be  remembered 
by  his  eulogy  of W.  D.  Rockefel 
ler  in his speech  on " T he Ethics of 
the  Standard  Oil C o ."  in the Y. M. 
C.  A. rooms  last  year.  C. H. Goetz 
handled  his  question 
fluently  and 
displayed  none  of his usual  bashful-
ness  when  appearing  before  an  au 
dience.  H is  vehemence  won  the 
decision  for the affirmative  and  also 
awoke  the critic. 

Next  week  the  subject  of  the 
Japanese  school  children  will  be dis 
cussed  and  it  will  be  a  splendid 
opportunity  to  hear  a  good  debate 
and  acquire  considerable  information 
on  the  subject. 

Next  Friday  evening  the  semi 
finals  for  choosing  the  M.  A.  C. 
debating  team  take  place  and it  is 
sincerely  hoped  that  every  one  will 
make  a special  effort  to  attend  one 
of  them.  T he debators  should  re 
ceive  all the encouragement  possible 
and  the  interest  be  kept  up for we 
do  not want  the  defeat  of  last  year 
duplicated,  so manifest  your  college 
spirit  by  turning  out  for  the team. 
Further  details  of  the  debates  will 
be  announced  later.

" D u r i ng  the  past  summer  our  out 
put  at  the  college  creamery  was 
22,000  lbs. of  butter  a  month  and 
season  it  has 
during 
this  winter 
In  November 
averaged  1,800  lbs. 
last,  the  dairy  department 
took  on 
the  city  milk  business,  and  is n ow

"Instruction  in farm  dairying  was 
given  to 56 students 
term 
and  fully  50 will  be given  the  work 
this  winter 
term.  T he  dairy  de 
partment  is well  under  way for  de 
velopment  and  it is contemplated  to 
carry  the work  on along  the  three 
lines :  commercial,  instructional and 
experimental. 

" We  believe  that  with  the com 
mercial  work,  we  shall  be  able  to 
show  to the  farmer  that  dairy  farm 
ing  does  pay in Oklahoma,  and  that 
we  may  become  better  acquainted 
with  the  markets,  creamery  condi 
tions,  etc.,  in  Oklahoma." 

All  students  desiring  descriptive
