THE  FINAL  DEBATE. 

On  Friday  evening  in  the  chapel, 
ahout  200 students  gathered  to  listen 
to the  final  deb  ite of  the  preliminary 
series,  which  proved  to  be  a  very 
instructive 
interesting  as  well  as  an 
one.  According  to  the  decision  of 
the  judges,  the  contest  between 
the 
individual  debaters  was  very  close. 
W.  E.  Piper  received 
first  place; 
H.  L.  Kempster,  set ;nd  ;  C.  C.  Tay 
lor,  third  ;  and  E . J.  Shassburger, 
fourth.

But  a  debating  team,  like  a  base

order  to  win,  and  on  May  17, M.  A. 
C.  and  Ypsilanti  will have  a  double-
header  contest.  A  game  of  base 
ball  is  scheduled  to  take  place  in  the 
afternoon,  while  the  debate  occurs 
in  the  evening.  Let  every  student, 
right  now,  make  a  resolution  to  go 
to  Ypsilanti  with  the  two  teams  and 
help  win  the  day  for  M.  A.  C.  A 
repetition  of  last  year's  defeats  can

ATHLETICS. 

On  next  Saturday  will  occur  the 
first  cross-country  run  ever  held  at 
M.  A.  C.  T he  run  will  be  made 
up  the  south  side  of  the  river  to  the 
the 
one  mile  bridge  and  back  on 
—north  side.  An  unusual  amount  of 
interest  has  been  stirred  up  over  the 
contest  and  it is  expected  that  a  large 
number  will  make  the  start.  Cap 
tains  Carr  and  Waite  will  choose 
up  before  the 
is  made  and 
start 
competition  will  be  between  the  two 
teams  as  well as  for  individual  cham

On  next  Saturday  will  also  be 
played  the  opening  game  between 
Olivet  and  M.  A.  C.  at  Olivet. 
yVhile  practice 
is  not  far  enough 
advanced  to pick  the  team,  this  game 
will  give  good  opportunity  to  get  a 
line  on  the  squad. 

F or  catcher  Crissey  continues  to 
show  up  well,  while  there  is 
left 
Canfield,  R o d e g eb  and  Burroughs 
to  fall  back  on.  T he  pitching  staff 
is  the  best  ever  and  includes  Nies, 
Shaffer,  A k e r s,  V a u g h n, and  K n a p p, 
all  of  whom  will  be  of  value  to  the 

squad.  F or 
the  infield  Kratz  and 
Canfield  of  1 tst  year's  team,  and  of 
the  new  men  who  have shown  more 
than  ordinary  ability  are  K n a p p, 
V a u g hn  and  Colby  at  3d,  and  Mills 
and  Olin  at  short.  T he  outfield 
is 
the  most  undecided  proposition  as 
there  are  so  many  fairly  eood  candi 
dates  and 
the  choice  will  be  made 
among 
those  who  can  ''hit"  best. 
Of  the  old  men  are  Ellis,  Thatcher, 
and  Dickson.  Of  new  material  for 
these  positions  who  are  showing  up 
well  are  Pratt,  Dodge  and  F o x.

BROTHERS  NONESUCH. 

T he  weather  man  very  kindly 
passed  out  the  most 
lovely  spring 
weather  to the  people  of  M. A. C. 
on  the 6th of  April,  the  date  of the 
appearance  of  the  great  Nonesuch 
Bros, 
circus.  T he  people  of  the 
vicinity  and  the  surrounding  com 
looking  forward 
munity  had  been 
with  the  wildest 
anticipation  for 
weeks  to this  great  day when  None 
such  Bros.,  with 
their  mammoth 
circus,  would  again  favor  M. A. C. 
with  a visit,  and  their  rosiest  dreams 
were  more 
than  realized  in  what 
they  beheld. 

T he  performance  began,  as do  all 
up  to-date 
shows,  with  a  grand 
open  air parade  ;  and  it was  a  parade 
indeed  ;  the  mcst  unique,  varied 
and  wonder  inspiring  cavalcade  that 
has  been  at  M.  A.  C.  this  year. 
Previous  efforts 
feeble  and 
inane  in  comparison  with  this  gor 
geous  galaxy  of  men  and  animals 
gathered  from  all  corners  of  the 
earth.  T he spectators  were  simply 
overawed  with  amazement  at  the 
strange,  gorgeous 
that 
passed  before  them. 

spectacle 

look 

It  is impossible  to  adequately de 
scribe  in  detail  the many  varied  fea 
tures  of 
this  great  parade.  But 
sOme  of  the  most  striking  are de 
serving  special  mention.  Of  course 
it  is  only  courteous  to  make  men 
tion  of  M r.  and  M r s.  Nonesuch  who 
led  the  procession  in  a  gaily  deco 
rated  chariot,  drawn  by a  prancing 
black  steea,  an  outfit  thoroughly  in 
keeping  with  the  high  position  of 
its  occupants.  No  doubt  many no 
ticed  with  considerable  sadness  the 
change  that  has taken  place  in  M r. 
Nonesuch  in  the  past  y e a r;  he no 
longer  has that  erect,  dignified  bear 
ing  of  former  years,  but  instead  his 
shoulders  have  a sad  droop,  and his 
countenance  looks  sad  and  careworn. 
T h is  sad metamorphosis  is caused, no 
doubt,  by the many  cares  and  wor 
ries  that  come  upon  one  holding 
such  a  hard  and exacting  position as 
does  M r.  Nonesuch. 
T he  military 

features  of  the 
parade  were  certainly  worthy  of 
commendation.  To behold  the 100 
cossacks  from  the  imperial  guards 
of  the  Czarvitch  of  Russia  was 
alone  worth  the price  of  admission, 
and  the  German  band  which  dis 
pensed  music  during  its  triumphal 
progress  was most  enjoyable. 

THE  M. A. C.  RECORD. 

But  the  greatest  feature  of  this 
great 
show,  and  of  which  M r. 
Nonesuch  must  be especially  proud, 
is the menagerie.  With  the  terrible 
sea  serpent;  the  octopus  with  its 
tentacles;  the 
constantly  waving 
bears  hideously  humane 
like;  the 
tall accentuated  giraffe;  the  graceful 
camel  and the  innumerable  herd  of 
representa  ives  of  canine  and  feline 
species,  held  in  subjection  by  their 
fearless  trainers;  made  this  feature 
of  the  parade  grand,  touching  and 
peculiar.  T h e re  was  also  an  elon 
gated  specimen  of  humanity,  w ho 
because  of  his  immense  height, 
found  it especially  difficult  to  navi 
gate  against  the  gentle  breezes  that 
blew  around  him,  and  finally  an 
especially  strong  bre< ze  blew  him 
to  the  ground  with  a  terrific  crash, 
and  were  it  not for the timely  assis 
tance  rendered  him by  his  faithful 
spouse,  M r.  Tall-man  would  have 
come  to an  untimely end. 

After  wending  its  w ay about  the 
winding  driveways  of  the  campus, 
the  parade  brought  up  at  armory 
where  amid  the  discordant  notes  of 
the  dutch  band, the shrill  cries of the 
ticket  sellers  and  side  show  crier; 
mingled  with  the bellowings  of  the 
caged 
animals  and  the  hideous 
shrieks  of  the  wild  man,  the  main 
performance  began  which  consisted 
mostly  in  separating 
the  specta 
tors  from  their  money. 

We  have  no

sufficiently  forceful  to  describe  the 
museum  features  of  the  exhibition, 
but  suffice  to  say it  was  good,  con

that  " the  people  like  to 
Barnum 
be  humbugged," 
to  have

been  adopted  by those  in  charge of 
the  museum.  But what  the specta

his  ravings,  caused  little  children  to 
cry  out in  utter  horror,  women  to 
faint  with  fear  and  strong  men  to 
turn  pale  from 
fright.  B ut  let us 
not  dwell  on  the  horrible,  but  to 
pass  on to  the  interior  where  charm

the  hungry  multitudes.

visitor  was  up  against  the  various 
fakirs,  candy  sellers  and  other  side-
liners  all of  whom  had  " the  best 
and  only."  After  spending  your 
money  you were  allowed  to see the

T he  performance  opened  with  a 
tumbling  exhibition  and  was  fol

some  wonderful  stunts  with  small 
hoops.  He was able to get through 
them  in almost  any position  and  did 
it  with  ease.

pleasure  of  a  visit  from  the  trained

very  good  juggling  and  the  hoop

At  this  point  the  audience  was 
treated  to  an  exhibition  of  "  free

Instructor  L.  J.  Smith 

recently 
spent  a  few days  with  his mother in 
Petoskey,  Mich. 

A  special  meeting  of  the  faculty 
was  called  on Thursday  evening  to 
act  on certain  petitions. 

Booker  T.  Washington  gave  an 
address  before  the  students  of  Pur 
due  University  on  the  evening  of 
April  3. 

A  new cement  walk  is to be  built, 
which  will  extend  from  the  main 
walk  near  Abbot  due  north  to  the 
postoffice. 

Moderator  Topics  has  been  pub

F or  a  few days  the  past  week  it 
seemed  as though  March  and  April 
had  traded  for  keeps. 

T he  first  50 pages  of  the  catalog 
has  been  sent  to  the  printer. 
It is 
hoped  that  more  copy  will  be  avail 
able  soon. 

One  of  the  changes  in  the new 
course  of study  will  be in the  credits 
which  will  hereafter  be more  easily 
understood. 

T he  Eclectic  Society  had  planned 
an  " open  house"  for this  week  Fri 
day  but have  found  it  necessary  to 
postpone  same. 

An  additional  t wo acres  has been 
added  to  the  forest  nursery,  and 
planting  has  begun  on  a  small 
arboretum.  T he nursery  now  com 
prises  five  acres. 

A  plat  of  Christmas  trees  will  be 
planted  by t he  forestry  department 
this  spring,  and  several  changes  in 
the  nursery  are planned  which  will 
be  reported  later. 

On 

the  recent  railroad

and  also  had a  short  visit  with  W. 
H.  A r n ey  w ho is  now  married and 
owns  a  farm  near  Sturgis. 

It  might  be well  to  ask  that  t he 
next  program  be warranted  not  to 
rip,  ravel,  etc. 

Grand  stand  seats  will  be free  to 
ladies  attending  the base  ball  games 
this  season. 

Prof.  Shaw  is spending  a few  days 
in  N ew  Y o rk  State  looking  up cattle

T he  faculty  by  recent  action has 
allowed  the subject  of  Poultry  to be 
substituted  for a  senior  elective.

In  the month  of  May,  1906,  Col.

were  picked  up  near  Mesa  Grande 
where  he states  they  are quite  com 
mon.  Mac.  says  " I have  not  found 
my  voice,  but  am  feeling  better 
every  other  way.  T he air  up  here 
in  the mountains  is very  bracing  and 
as  soon  as  warm  weather  comes 
expect  good  results." 

Dr.  Hoch  of  the German  Univer 
sity  of  Berlin  visited  the college  last 
week.  He is visiting  various  agri 
cultural  institutions  of  the country 
and  was  particularly 
interested  in 
the  experiments  as carried  on by  our 
station. 

On  Friday  evening  Pres.  Snyder 
and  Prof.  Vedder  attended  a  confer 
from  the 
ence  of  representatives 
various  colleges  in  the  M. I. A. A. 
held  at  Battle  Creek. 

M r.  G. V.  Copson,  '08, has  left 
college  and  will  engage  in  green 
house  work  the  coming  year  at 
Grand  Rapids. 

D.  H.  Ellis  has accepted  a respon 
sible  position  with  the  P a r ks  Com 
mission  of  Saginaw.  M r.  Ellis 
lives  near  that  city  and  will  devote 
most  of his time  to  the  care  of the 
city  parks.  He will  probably  work 
one  or two  weeks  before  graduation, 
and  will  enter  upon  his duties  per 
manently  about  June  1. 

Miss  Landis,  state  secretary  of 
the  Y. W. C. A., spent  several  days 
at  the college  the past  week.
