LOSE ONE IN BASKET BALI.
The Mountaineers won their open- t
ing- hesie contest of the season by (
defeating the .Johnson Bible College c
quintet from Tennessee by the score s
>f II to 17. The game opened up .
vith a flash of speed by the boysi *
from Tennessee, with the home bovs j
.m the defensive. However, after f
about five minutes of play, the ^
Mountaineers began to loop the has set.
with some long range shots andj .
vhe game was never In doubt. Con- v
.inuous bombardment of the basket ,
resulted in the first half ending in ,
favor of Appalachian Sfate with the (
score standing at 21 to 1'. In the sec- j
^nd half, the defense of the Johhscn 5
College team did not improve and j
lespite a continuous flow of subst:- ,
utions, the Mountaineers ran the; (
score up to 41 to 17. j .
Wright tor the visitors was the \
outstanding offensive man and his j
all-around playing was a big factor t
for the boys from Tennessee. Saun- (
lers and Bennett; also did some fine
loor work, but were unable to cope! j
with the team play of the Moun-i ?
uiineers. Iv. H in soil led in the scorfl j

giving him a close run. while Pyatte
and Fuikersun did some line defen-ive

Father's love.
These are the facts which ill
must make clear to men. These pr

this wise they are to have a part

Jesus wanted that these simp
minded men should catch His spi
and method and point of view,
taught them to know the truth 1
cause He knew that the truth wo*
make them free. His disciples w<
His apprentices and when He s<
them out two bv two. it was to t
the result of His methods. His j
when he found the test success
was unrestrained. According to t
Gospel records all of Christ's o
standing followers were won by t
method. This is the method used
the early Christian church. This or
inal New Testament method that c
be employed to win people for Jes
Christ's method, therefore, ale
meets in full measure the fundanv
tal needs of the individual and
humanity. In the early Christi
Church each Christian felt a perso
responsibility to take the Mess*
and invitation of Christ to his re
fives, friends, neighbors and fricn
The same responsibility is that of
modern Christian. What would
the result if all the modern Chi
tians should at once assume this
sponsibiiity? The spread of the ki
dom is dependent upon the co-ope

We. therefore, must labor for
making of this kingdom, a univei]
