FINAL HOCKEY GAMES
TO BE PLAYED
SHORTLY
II -you have been down on the
athletic field at all or if you have
even /poked your head out of the
proper windows for sight-.seeing, I
need ■ not tell you that the hockey
se.'ison has begun. You who have
been to the field or who have looked
out ^of the back windows^ need no
urging to push on and clinch it; but
as for the others—don’t insist on
lie.ing unfortunate! Come down and
learn to use hockey sticks to sharp
en your wits.
The schedule for the finr.l games
is ti) be announced shortly. There
is just time enough for you to
squeeze in enough practices to work
yourself u]) to a berth on class or
varsity teams. Everything depends
on how hard you w'ork.
I^ook around you again at tlie sil
ver tropliies and look loo, at tlie class
nunjerals on tho cup in M.ain Hall.
Decide that it’s worthwhile to run
off those gummy feelings that are
liang-overs from mid-term tests and
wee:k-end aftermaths, and come have
a play day.on the hockey field.

Mr. Schofield, representing the

stunt of all, being charged with the
duty of presenting the awards.

prize of five dollars aud the Sopho

went away with the complete as
surance that to tliem without a doubt
belonged the moral victory!
THE FUNCTION OF A COMMA
Oh, Sadie wa.s.a. snappy, jane.
And Oscar loved her much
He tried each night with might and
To get her in his clutch.
Ihit she was pretty slippery,
And when he grabbed her hand,
To try an’ ;pull her on his knee,
Slie said: “T>ay off me, man.”
One niglit they, left sweet Sadie’s
home
To take a moonlight .stroll.
A thug hit Oscar on. the dome
And tried to take his roll.
But Sadie banged him with her fist
About like Dempsey can—
And as lie begged her to desist.
She said: “Lay off me man .
HOW THE RUSSIAN
PEOPLE WERE
BAPTIZED
So often the girls ask me, “To
what church do you. belong?” I
answer “To Greek Orthodox,” and
see a.stonishment on their faces.
Here I want to tell liow the Russians
happened to be Greek Orthodox.
It was in tlie year 996, that the
Russians, as were most of the na
tions originally, were pagans. They
worshiped the forces of nature, as
sun, moon, wind etc. But as the
centuries went on they came in
touch with other nations; sometimes
by trade, sometimes by their inva
sions, for they were very warlike.:
For example, history tells .about
Count Oleg, wlio hung his shield
on the gates ^of Constantinople. The
worship of one God astonished and
attracted our forefathers. They were
no more ^ati.sfied with their gods,
who, the began to realize, were the
creation of man. The interest grew
deeper and deeper but still the pagan
priests ruled over the minds of the
people, and as there was no Chris-
tiiin missionaries it w;is not bard to
do.
Tlie country was divided into
countries at the he.ad of which was
a noble family. In the end of the
century in Kief, the “Mother of Rus-
san cities,” ruled a kind, lover of
truth and justice, Coupt Valdimir.
This Count was the richest and most
liospitable. The mandor players
were always welcomed in the - court
of the just count; and . tlicy. loved
Valdimir. From all ends of the
world they gathered in his palace,
telling about the distant cotwitries
they visited; about the strange peo-.
pie they met, and about the beauti
ful churches built in honor of God.
So deeply was the count interested
that he decided to send messengers
with rich presents to all foreign
monarchies, that they might see with
their own eyes what till this time
was heard in songs.
A whole year passed, before the
mes.sengers returned. They related
about the churches they saw, what
beautiful music they heard. Their
stories were endless, and their eyes
were glittering with ecstasy. The
])eoj)le heard them speaking and
wondered. .Then came the turn of
those, who went to Constantinople^
and heard the. service in 'the church
of St. Sophi.'i, “We thought to be in
heaven,” that was all they said. The
just count was impressed by their'
sim])h' words, and he .sent to the em-.
■peror the req.uest to send their priest.
The priest came to teach and in the
year-99>, the Russian people to-,
getiier.with their count were bap
tized in the river of Dnc])re near
Kief. .

Dr. Lilly
warmed
the
students
against carrying broadmindedness to
the nth degree .and making it an
attitude of indifference. A sort of
discipline in one’s attitude toward
Broadmindedness should be acquired.
When a stream loses its banks, it
becomes a marsh, thus the same in
people’s lives. Dr. T.illy urged bis
hearers to let their lives through
Broadmindedness be a flowing, pro
gressive stream of living w.ater lead
ing to the sea of social progress and
.religious fruitfulness.
