20 EDITORIALS it may the well not to have too many irons in the fine one whether the one which we propose mentioning will he the superfoous one, or pol, remains to he determined. ararly all of the college papers of the State the subject uppermost in the minds of all athletic editors is foothall. This is a subject of great importance in itself--its satisfactory derelopment and support. But while football may be sufficient to occupy the attention of those not otherwise engaged in most colleges, it will be found insufficient at K. $.

A. C. There are many who will find this subject worthy of their spare time, either by participating in it or by acting the part of the encouraging spectator. When you think of the attendance at many of the colleges in the State, you will find this sport equal to the emergency in forming an outlet for athletic enthusiasm. By studying the conditions at home it will be seen at once, with all of its efficiency, that it is not equal to the emergency of handling this spirit of athletic enthusiasm.

Of the number of young men in College, one-half are capable of spending some time in athletic training. If those constituting the one-half were all to be founding upon the girdiron at once there would be a congested field which no coach. could successfully handle. They could not be properly equipped, much less properly handled. What to do to keep them busy may be a problem.

But why not have those fit for track work busy at that line of sport? Why not have the basket-ball men busy with some exercise other than wearing the moleskins to harden their muscles? Why not have a cross-country squad hard at work to find who are going to be who next spring? They cannot all be properly equipped for football practice, so why not equip them at small expense for running? Men, hardened by a siege of summer labor, enter College and allow themselves to soften up long before their particular line of sport is reached. If they are kept hardened this part of the spring's work will, to a great extent, be eliminated. A fall of idleness and a winter of toasting in warm rooms gives the men who come out in the spring a decided disadvantage over the men who spend the fall in constant practice and the winter in systematic exercise. But these same soft men are the ones who will compose next spring's track team. There is material in College to-day sufficient, if properly trained, to carry the Royal of Purple to victory over any college track team.

But how are they employed? They gain nothing during ten months of the year and then in the on spring are pronounced deficient.

The usual preliminaries were quickly dispensed with and all settled down to the enjoyment of a first class program. The musical numbers rendered by Mir. Hunter. Miss Hallie Smith. Miss Grace Smith and Mr.

McCanles won long continued applause, and all but one responded to vigorous encores. The more solid parts of the program were Ferguson's essay on "Music as a Part of an Education," a miscellane. ous number by Pendon, and sions on subjects of importance to Websters by such men as Morrison, Gibbon, and Englehardt. The ing of the "Reporter" by Herb. Strong was a fitting close to a program, which was a success from every standpoint.

The time after recess was given up to parliamentary gymnastics. The voting in of eight men and the electof several others to various positions furnished opportunities for much debate, raising of points of order, questions of information, and other practices peculiar to the business of a literary society. The critic's report and a few extemporaneous speeches brought things to a close, and society adjourned at 10:32 in the dark. H. A.

C. McDuffee-Schmitz. The HERALD is in receipt of the announcement of the marriage of Miss Clara McDuffee, Batavia, N. to Nicholas Schmitz, Washington, D. C.

The wedding took place at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Erwin McDuffee, at Batavia, N. on Tuesday, September twenty-fourth. Mr.

Schmitz will be remembered by the older students in College as a former business manager of the HERALD and a member of the '04 class. The HERALD extends congratulations and best wishes to the happy couple. If you know anything about any- body, drop a few lines about it to the local editor and your kindness will always remain engraved on the tablets of his memory. If you don't, we may have to fill up our columns with pipe dreams, accounts of dog fights, and maybe the names of members of the freshman class. Of course this would make interesting reading, but pipe dreams have a habit of repetition, dog fights cannot always be pulled off on schedule time, and the supply of freshmen is, to a certain extent, limited.

FELLOW STUDENTS! LISTEN! A The sales of Students' Supplies by The Cooperative Bookstore during the opening days of this College year have been unprecedented. The management is highly pleased, The student support that has been accorded us spells Success for the Cooperative Bookstore, It means the store's continuance along broader and more progressive lines, it means that, with the assurance the students have given we can venture farther, make our stock more complete, and thus stand far to the front as a supplier of all student needs, it means encouragement in the idea we are nursing, that before long we can build a new home for the store and thus have the entire property in the hands of the students, We feel confident that the students who purchased their supplies of us are pleased. They have obtained the best values at the minimum of cost. Students could have purchased their books elsewhere, probably, for the same prices paid at the students' store, but, fellow students, you must realize that but for the presence of The Students' Co-operative Bookstore you would be paying a much higher price, right now, for all your books and school supplies. We ask a continuance of your patronage.

Trading with us is not necessarily student loyalty, but is loyalty to your pocketbook. We have everything on hand that is ordinarily needed in your school work. Special orders will be promptly placed by us, and the same rule of best value for the least money will prevail in all these orders. We are going to keep the students posted from time to time on the progress of this store. We have the students' interest at heart.

Watch for our talks in the STUDENTS' HERALD. We bid for your patronage and support. The Students' Co-operative Bookstore Remember the Name. Motto: Not Sordid Greed but Pulling for the Students' Best Interests..
