We learn that baseball
have been arranged with Cornell,
Virginia and Georgia, with the lat
ter two there will be a series of
three games. They will both draw
large crowds. We are glad that
our manager is at work arranging
his schedule and not waiting till the
spring when all the colleges have
already arranged schedules

scrub and will not make any com
plaint of them, for they have work
ed haul, sacrificed much and get
little praise generally. But still
there can be improvement, and if
onlv the good men would come out
and even at the last hour fight for
places on either team, great good
would result. Its a hard job, but
there's honor in holding a place on
the scrub team, for they give
strength to the Varsity.
Several students will accompany
the team on their southern trip.
They will be quite an encourage
ment to the team. But let them
not forget that there are about four
hundred of us back here with them
in spirit if not in body. Play hard.
Vanderbilt refused to give us a
chance to redeem last year's defeat
either on our own or their ground;-..
But Georgia has defeated Vander
bilt. Now let us show our superi
ority to Georgia and so beat Van
derbilt indirectly.
The foot ball team leaves Thurs
day for its first game away from the
hill. At this game however there
will be mostly friendsand friendly
rooting But in a few days they
leave for their southern trip, to
play Georgia and Alabama. Let us
get behind them more than ever now
and give them a send off not by
gathering in a mass meeeting in the
chapel and saying a lot of meaning
Jess words,, but by an every day
gathering on the field. They are
working hard now. Let's show
them that we know it and appreciate
their efforts, so that when they are
on foreign gridirons they may fee
they are still fighting for the college
and that we are still behind them.
Interesting Lecture Series.
The students doubtless will be glad
to know that some efforts are being
made to secure several good lecturers
during this winter.
Just a word in advance; in the first
place, we want none but the best and in
in
n the best possible shape. Look
out for Carolina that day. She'll
ha there in full force.

What's the matter with the class
teams? Will the higher classes
leave it to the Soph, and Fresh,
classes to keep up this important
phase of foot ball? These have set
the ball rolling. Let the others
now take it up and keep it going.
xne ciass teams snouiu receive
more encouragement from the auth
orities. We would then have bet
ter teams and more interest. Can't
something be done?
Ihe toot ball team must have
some revenge next Friday in the
Blacksburg game,
Remember last year's score and
wipe it out so tiiorouhly that it may
never be mentioned again. An
alumnus from Winston writes us
that if the team crushes Blacksburg-
to the earth, Winstou will send a
large delegation to Ric nuond
Thanksgiving day. We need that
delegation and must have it.
Nearly all of our college ex
changes abound in patriotic songs
and yells for their important foot
ball games. Why can't we have
something of the sort? We have
plenty of talent among us, plenty of
enthusiasm and a good team to in
spire enthusiasm, then why not the
songs? If only, some of our poets
would overcome their false modesty
a little and contribute something of
this sort, it would do much good
in helping the team on the victory.
Our big games are to begin this
week and we need all the encourage
ment of any nature to -urge the
team to their best. Let somebody
come forward and help us out.

As announced in another column,
Davidson College will send a foot
ball team over to Charlotte to play
our boys next Saturday,. We wel
come Davidson on the gridiron. We
are glad she has thrown aside her
old isolation and decided to mix
with us. We trust that we shall
oe aoie to rurnish t lie in such amuse
ment Saturday as to give them rea
son for remaining in the field.
Decidedly foot ball is regaining
its proper place in the State.
and cultivate our taste for this sort of
thing as well as for our daily rcsita
tion. Surely our education would be
lacking in much were we to go through
the University without hearing and
studying some of the best lecturers in
America. We hope that when the
opportunity comes, the students will
make good use of it.
Again we hope no one would be dis
appointed should the lecturer fail to
cater to some little whimsical desire 'of
his.
There is always inspiration and im
petus towards higher ideals to be
gained from listening to and coming
in contact with such a man as Hamil
ton W. Mabie, whose books are now
in the best libraries not onlv of
America but of most of the foreign
countries. Viewed in this light one is
always repaid and too there is a feel
ing ot pleasure in having seen and
heard men who are becoming famous
in our midst, and who soon will be
known to all "cultured people. Wheu
such men appear in our halls every
body should hear them and thus add
to their store bits of knowledge with
out which their training here would be
incomplete.

The Old Folks at Home.
Don't g-o to the theater, concert or ball,
But stay in your room to-night;
Deny yourself the friends that call,
And a good, long letter write
Write to the sad old folks at home,
Who sit, when the day is done,
With folded hands and downcast eyes.
And think of the absent one.
Dont selfishly scribbl, "Excuse my haste,
I've scarcely time to write,"
Lest their brooding thoughts go wander
ing back,
To many a bygono night
When they lost needed sleep and rest.
And every breath was a prayer
That Cod would lead their delicate babe
To their tender love and care.
Don't let them feel that you've no more
Of their love or counsel wise J
For their hearts grow strongly sens.it ive
When age has dimmed their eyes:
It might be well to let tliem believe
You never forgot them quite,
That you deem it pleasure wheu far a way
A long letter home to write,
Don't think that the young and giddy
friends
Who make your pastime gay.
Have half tho anxious thought for you
That the old folks have to-day.
The duty of writing do not put off,
Let sleep or pleasure wait,
Lest the letter for which they looked and
longed.
Be it a clay or an hour too late.
For the sad od foks at home.
With locks fast turning white,
Are longing to haar from the absent one
Vrite them a letter to-night.
