Anti-Germanic Demonstration
Takes Place at Swain
HalL
Sunday night at supper-time
was a nseiido riot amon.o-
the patrons of Swain Hall which
was Occasioned- either by the
karciiness of the arrival of food
at a lew ot the tables or sparse-
ness of it after its arrival. Quite
a crowd gathered in the open
space in the middle of the hall
and invited the new manager,
who is a; German by birth, to
come forth from the recesses of
the pantry; and explain pimself.
YeUs were given which varied
from; "Bring on the Grub!" to
"Hurrah for the Allies!" and
"Down1 With We Germans!" As
the' s"o"Ught for member of the
late rhftibtiality did not ap
pear, it Was rumored' tlikt he had
followed the example of the well
remerhbered phrenologist, Pro
fessor Prey's, and' tiad sha&hi the
dust Of this community from his
satfdMls; bttt liter develepments
showed' that this w'as riot' true.
The new manager realized that
the uproar was good-natured in
its intent, and merely had no de

seemed to him best, and remained

Mushrooms and Water
Discussed
MEN MEET
br. Coker and Prot. Hick-
eison Lead Interesting
Discussion
At the 214th meeting of the
Elisha Mitchell Scientific Society
Tuesday evening in Chemistry
Hall Dr. Coker showed the differ
ent kinds of mushrooms and in
explaining them told how to
avoid the poisonous ones. Prof
nickerson lojioweo tiira witn a
thorough;, explanation of the
Hutchinson Overshot Water
Wheel.
j Dr. L-oker began Dy saying
Jthat he had seen a recent article
in a German newspaper urging
the German soldiers .to learn to
eat mushrooms. Thousand's of
dollars worth of food is at pres
ent going to waste because the
people do not eat mushrooms.
A great many deaths have oc
curred, however, on account of
ieatiog mushrooms. Among the
number are noticeable many great
men, such as Pope Clements VI.
several emperors and kings, and
the recent Russian ambassador to
the United States. Twenty-two
Ideaths occurred in New, York
City in one week for which pois-
'onous mashrooms were responsi
ble. Most all mushrooms are to
some degree poisonous, but the
most deadly are the white ones.
IThey are death dealing. Little
'cups at the bottom of the stems
jare other signs of poison. Fur
thermore, Dr. Coker said that any
kind of mushroom ought to be
experimented with before that
kind is eaten. The best way to
test one is to feed it to some
lower animal. If it does not
hurt the animal, one of the
same kind could be safely
eaten by a person. There is one
kind of mushroom that has the
same effect on a man as alcholic
drinks. It makes him drunk, but
seldoms kills.
At the end of Dr. Coker's speech
Dr. Battle said in his usual em
phatic manner: "Boys, the safest
way to solve the mushroom prob
lem is to keep them out of your
stomachs." Dr. Battle also spoke
of Dr. Mitchell, from whom the
society is named.
Prof. Hickersoii began by a
brief outline of the different sys
tems" of 6 water works in use on
the farms and the sources of
supply. He first mentioned grav
ity, the hand pump, the gasoline
engine, the windmill and the hy
draulic ram, and then he
took up the Hutchinson pump.
Last summer Prof. JHickerson
was looking for a good way to
get water from a spring to his
house and barn up on the hill.
He happened to see the first ad
vertisementof the Overshot Wheel.

TOM BOUSHALL AT THE Y. M. C. A
The Doubts of College Man Discussed
Tuesday Night.
Tljomas Boushall made the
regular Tuesday night talk in
the Y. M. C. A. on the subject,
"The Doubts of a College man".
The main idea of his speech was
that God is an infinite spiait
which pervades the whole world
To make ones outward actions
correspond to ones inner concep
tions of is the test of ones Chris
tianity. God is a great spirit
and the only things that a man
will be held accountable lor are
his various attitudes toward the
great moral questions of the day.
A student's conception of God
changes a great deal in the
period between his entrance as a
Freshman and his exit as a Grad
uate. When he enters he has a
definite conception of God as a
finite being who has fixed place
of residence, but this conception
is soon broken down in the light
of science and philosophy in
which he lives, and consequently
the student goes through a period
: great doubt' After a period
of meditation and thought he
comes to realize that there must
be something which created
everything and controlls every
thing, and his conception of God
is revised. When he adopts this
conception as the foundation of
his Christianity he come to know
that infinite peace and good fel
lowship which results only from
being in perfect accord with the
Highest Power.
Mr. Starr will lead the discus
sion next Tuesday night on the
subject of "Bible Study."

the loss of all his dearly beloved
front teeth, not to mention legs,
arms, and ribs; they are "One
equal temper of heroic hearts,
strong in will to strive, to seek,
to find, and not to yield". They
are a body of men of which any
University would be justly proud.
Secret practice, begun last
Monday, will conlinue. until
Thanksgiving. This entire time
will be devoted to the perfecting
of new plays.
In the game last Saturday
Winston played well but was not
in the best physical trim on ac
count of having missed several
practises. The sub ends have
not shown up as well as tbey will
later in the season. So far Vv : ' -liamson
is the best, but L
light and not fast enough, i
and Grimsley " have not shown
what they are capable of doing.
Bourne has hardly been in fit
condition to play. Bates has
been tried out at end for two
days and is heavier than any
other candidate, but allows inter
ference on defence to get into
body and keep him out of plays.
On offence he has shown ability
to interfere for runner. Ramsay
at tackle has been playing his
usual steady game. Right guard
and right tackle are still open;
the fight lies between Foust, Gay,
and Jones, F. Jones must get
down to hard work, or the others
will beat him out. Hambley is
improving every da- as sub
tackle, and Tayloe, J. is develop
ing into the best defensive tackU
on the field. Jones, J. has to ii.:.
prove in passing for kicks an
direct passing; his defensive wor
is good. Andrews is improvii
