A DEBATING TOUR? During the past few weeks, the Girls' Glee club has been touring the East, and now, the whole Institution shares In the glory of their success.. The Men's club has also arranged a tour for the near future. Similarly, athletic teams are representing Hope In regular contests with rival colleges, sometimes, two and three per week. This Is all commendable and It meets with the approval of the writer. But, one discriminating look at the outside activities of the college reveals the fact t h a t debating has slipped into the background. In the limited number

hero or heroine from the lower classes whose actions and reactions are sympathetically depicted for our understanding—in order t h a t we may realize how far we have actually misjudged them, and discover how much truer and nobler they are fundamentally than we. • We confess there Is a great deal In It; t h a t there are characters as Interesting. and perhaps even a few as true to life as the "sympathiser" has painted them. But go to anyone who has had long dealings with them as a class, and the tawdrlness and repulslveness of their whole system of social and moral ethics will revolt the average "nice" person. There Is no stigma In beln^ "nice". It does not mean "goody-goody" or anything of the k nd. I t means simply a person who has decent values of living. If we are to acccpt the other we lose, as Mrs Gerould remarks, our sense of va'ues, and we shall presently lose the values as well. Necessarily, for a decent sense of values, we need a decent amount of knowledge, or they cannot be truly called values. But. we need not yield to the sentimentalist within us entirely, and color the whole mass with the chance beauty of the few. The larger mind? Yes. The larger understanding? The larger sympathy? Yes. But to achieve t h a t , we must keep and cultivate our sense of values, not open our minds to what there Is of good In the seamy side of h u m a n i t y alone, for. It's attractlveness Is heightened In contrast with t h e far greater a m o u n t of bad, and we are apt to overlook the good In our own values because the contrast Is the other way around. Oh. but some are remarks, you know. "There's so much good In the worst of us. And so much bad In the best of us T h a t It doesn't behoove any of us To say anything about the rest of us." Well and good, b u t keep your sense of values!

Humor If I were a Boy I would rush one girl for at least two weeks; I'd make her think she was t h e only one. I wouldn't go down town and tell all the other fellows about her. I would phone for dates before 7:30; preferably I would make a date the night before In order t h a t the girl might have some Idea as to what she Is going to do when she Is asked by other girls. I would never be guilty of this telephone conversation: Boy—Have you a date tonight? Girl—No. Boy—What are you going to do? Girl—(Expectantly and hesitantly)— I don't know. Boy—Would you like to go to the show? Girl—Why, yes. Boy—May I have a date? Girl—Who Is this? Instead I'd say pointedly: "This Is Jimmy. May I have a date with you tonight?" This would save the girl the embarassmcnt of admitting t h a t ^he hasn't a date, beside taking away all her excuses If she would want to t u r n down the

I gave him a shot of chicken gin (one drink you cackle. two, you lay) with which my roomie clcans his shoes when he takes out the current vaudeville queen at the Holland, and asked the reason for his agitation. Between slugs of Gordon water, BUI explained quite brokenly. "My mind Is quite made up. I shall kill myself. But not because I find this life unbearable, not at all. Indeed, my will power Is stretched to the breaking point when I think of forsaking the merry round of necking parties and all night dances here at Hope.

"A self-murder,' he continued, mastering his emotion, "has taken place at every prominent university In the country. Shall Hope lose Its prestige merely because one s t u d e n t refuses to give his life for his alma mater? No, a thousand times no! But how shall I do the deed? At first, I firmly resolved to tickle myself to death and I even went so far as to buy a paint brush at the corner hardware v 1th which to end It all, only to remember th at I am not ticklish. I dislike d*.owning; water always gets u p my no3f; shooting h u r t s too much, while hanging—Eureka! I have it! I shall die by gas! I shall attend chapel for a week..

A NATION-WIDE INSTITUTION-

enney

A fine group of men gathered in the basement of Van Vleck hall to hear Lawrence Borst lead the Home Volunteer group, on the topic; "What is T h a t to Thee? Follow Thou Me." He brought out the idea t h a t we are not to Judge whether or not a man is to believe in Evolution. We are not to Judge whether or not a man prcaches a dllferent gospel. We may have to change our ideas about God as our knowledge increases and as scicnce discovers new things, but. God ne/er changes. If your fellow Christian brother believes in Evolution and also clings to t h e tenets of Christian faith, we shoud not. stigmatize him as an u n believer, ath!est. or agnostic. If we cannot adjust our Christianity to Evolution then we should leave it alone.—but we should not critlze our Christian neighbor who has vision enough and whose faith Is large enough to make Evolution and the Christian religion compatible. When Peter asked Jesus what was J o h n I to do, Jesus answered, "If I will t h a t he tarry till I come, what Is t h a t to thee? Follow thou me." Jesus Is saying the same thing to us now. Are we to follow the advice of Jesus?

After playing superior ball during the first half, Hope's less experienced team Rexall Drug Store East End Drug Store crumbled In the final period, and Alma took a hard-fought battle by the count of 27 to 20 In Carnegie Gym. March 1. Hope's passwork In t h e first half was well timed .and accurate .and her defense stood up well, holding the Camp4 bell men to 8 points, while she. garnered 13 points In the Initial period. The last half saw Hope decidedly off form, due, no doubt, to the hard pace and stiff competition she has been In all season, and even at that. Alma was forced to the limit, and It was only thru tho sensational shooting of Leng and Tlderlngton that Almn was able to win. Japplnga countcd the heaviest of the Hope team, caging 3 deuces and a foul * shot.
