A. hall Monday night, given toy Mr. Frank McEntee, on the old mor ality play "Everyman." He discuss ed the origin snd history of the Eng lish drama, dwelling especially on the old play of the above name. This play was given In Durham last night and practically the entire stri dent body as well aa a large number of the faculty wintessed the perform snce. The entire consensus of opin ion was that the play was ths best thing In its line ever seen by the stn- dnnts here. Every year the local Toung Men's Christian Association offers a num ber of attractive courses In Bible and mission study to its members and others, these being conducted with the purpose of a sympathetic and de votional study of the two fields.

"This debats will taka plice In Macon In the city auditorium Thanks giving Dsy. It will be the second of a series of three debates arranged by tha Institutions last year. The first one took place In Balelgh. N. C. last April, snd resulted In a victory for Wake Forest. This was th first debate Mercer hss ever lost, and hence th students are anxious to setti th soor with Wake Forest, "Th question to be discussed In the debate which Is to be held I one which was submitted t Wsk Korettt by Mercer. . it reads, 'itesolvedt That, Tih United...

Mercer's theory of debating Is very different. Ltttl . attentlen beyond th ordinary rule of xprerion Is paid to delivery Mercer' ideal de mand I -that th ' debaters , produce and advanc Idea on their subject "They must either throw new light on th question, or handl th old ones in an. original manner.' This standard ha been rigidly enforced for th past few years. : The speakers of Mercer's debaters , last yssr wer pronounced a distinct contributions to th knowledg of tho subject. As th dsbate Is to be decided upon argument alone, every liidlca-l uon , point to a victory for Mercer, unless tn wak Forest debater can sweep th 'Judges ' oft their feet by appeals to - entiment r delivered . in eloquent pursuavs oratory." Every ono who know anything of the speaker sent ont by Wak Forest knows that their speaking contains tb element of clear facts, set forth In argument Those, who heard th debate in Raleigh last year with Mercer will testify that It was won by Wako Forest because the argument and not the oratory surpassed tha speaker from the former institution. - w have Buata few debate speeches which surpassed as debate speeches those delivered at the preliminary speaking of Messrs.

The Judars of this year's de bat being frotsk Georgia, they will hardly be swentOtf their feet by the eloquence alone of th Wak Forest speakers, though every stjdent here hss the utmost confidence tnai Mer cer will be pretty well met "The question ror -lenate on tne coming occasion Is on of great Im ortance Ih th public mind at r res ent," continues the writer from Mer cer. "The Pan-Ameil?en Conference. which holds Its meetings at Rio 1e Janeiro, give great importance to th4 question. - Secretary of Ftato P..ct la expected to outline' ihe policy of the United Status towards Soe.h America at this meeting." The coming of th Boston Or chestral Company Monday night un der the management of the Redpath Lyceum Bureau was an event in our college life of more than ordinary Interest Tho company consists of nva gentlemen, each of a high grade of ability. Mr. Jenneas, director and violin soloist, was a marvel of ears, precision and spirit. Mr. Batclieldor made to th audience a new revela tion of the capacity, th range and power of the, flute; and to most of us the cornet. In the hands of Mr. Phoenix, was an Instrument which we seemed never to hav heard ots fore. The accompaniments of Mr. Fvrburg were triumphs of musical responsiveness and many thought bis solo work a particularly fine feature of the programme. The trombonist. Mr. Edwarda, won a double distinc tion In the minds of the whole audi ence, by the skilful handling of his rich Instrument and the spice of fun with which at proper point he brightened up the evening. The College Glee Club and Or chestra went to Henderson, Warren ton, Scotland Neck, Rocky Mount and Dunn, where, "beginning Tuesdsy evening,, they gave concerts this week tn the order named. We had the pleasure of hearing a rehearsal of the programme that will be given on thla trip, and, In our opinion. It waa one of the best. If not th best. we have heard by the organisation.

In his preliminary remarks last Sunday he emphasised that th value of the class depended not only on how well the lessons wer pre pared, hut on th amount of work for good the class does. He recom mended that a visiting Committee be appointed and that the class form a Baraca quartet. Both of these recommendations will be carried out. Rev. Dr. M. V.
