FOOTBALL-A SERMONETTE.


Defense of the National College Sport by Dr. Harlan.


Il Samuel, 10:12-"Let us play the men for our people."


The game of football has been se- verely critic sed recently, and doubt- less justly so. Yet, much might be sa'd in defense of this most strenuous of our outdoor athletic ports. The security of its place in school life 1s one o the marvels of recent athletic history. Without defending or con- aidemn'ng the game, or any features of sait, We will use it as an illustration, bland also nctice in what ways it may contribute to the building of character.


1st. It represents the inexorable. It requires firmness, determination, courage, hard'hood. It is unyielding, relentless; endurance is its key word, and we all know that character must be seasoned with these many attri- but:s. MUST is one of its driving words. A team must train, must prac- tice, must endure r'sks. The men must obey their capta'n, must keep their temper. If and may have no place. A high wall of obligation must be scaled. Necessary laws are on every hand and the football player who has learned h's lesson well is better prepared for life. It is posi- tive. A thing must be done, not half done. It requires aggressive putting forth of energy. It is direct, it is full of certainty. It is Carlyle's Eternal Yea. It goes ! It teaches one to do, not to dream. It bucks the line, it breaks through and goes around but it goes.


2nd. It urn shes a means of self discovery, which may lead to self en- largement. The player finds himself larger, stronger or smaller as the case may be. He comes to know that one cannot play fast and loose with temp- tation. Every game i a crisis. One sees the value of self-restraint. He learns what he is capable of doing.


Self-reliance is generated. 4 man is educated by being thrown upon his own resources. The Index Expurga- tcris has kept the Span ards from be- ing a l'terature-producing people. Freedom of movement and opportun- ity creates a self-reliant people.


The football player who has made the most of what the game will give him has discovered himself, and henceforth will undertake anything which his clearly understood limita- tions do not forbid.


3rd. The game also engenders the social spir't. Coo-perat'on makes the team. The man learns to work with his fellows. He is not all. He is only a part, but a part of a social group. H's life is mingled with the life of the group He learns to act in unison. He learns to nterpret signals. His brain and heart have both been train- ed. He is more of a Man and more of a Fellow-man.


The forego'ng has been written by Dr. Rolvix Harlan; it was suggested to him by statements in the football rule book several o several years ago, made by President Thwing.


THE CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATIONS.


Y. M. and Y. W. in Joint Meeting Ad- dressed by Prof. Groner.


The Christian associations did not hold their regular meetings last Sun- day morning, but instead a general student meeting, in line with the aft- ernoon meetings of the week, was held in Olympian hall. 4 goodly representation of students was pres- ent and a deeply devotional spirit nervaded the meeting. Prof. O. S. Groner had charge and discussed the


topic, "The Student's Relation to the Christian Life," in a masterly and forceful manner, showing the reason- ableness of seeking the true Christian experience, and its necessity to the student in interpreting rightly the phy- sical and intellectual phenomena of the universe. He likened the student to a builder whose bricks were the things of his daily life, his actions, the things that he learns, and the cement his Christian thought and aspiration. Unless the cement is of the highest quality the building can be but poorly constructed, and is liable to give way under strain at any time.


ACTING ASSISTANT LIBRARIN.


Miss Rock 09 May Be Elected to Fill Vacancy at Carnegie Library.


Miss Genevieve Rock '09 is acting assistant librarian of the Ottawa Car- negie library, since the resignation of Miss Mersal Sullivan. Miss Rock may be electetd to fill the vacancy.


Miss Carrie M. Sheldon '01 is librar- ian of the public library, which is a valuable aid to Ottawa students. Re- cently a considerable sum of money was appropriated to buy books. The committee is trying to find out what books are desired most. One of the most popular late books is William llen White's "A Certain Rich Man," three copies of which are in the public library. All are constantly in use, and the demand is greater than the supply.

An Ancient Scottish Work Presented to the University Library.


Want to know something about Rhe-


oric and Belles Letter, as


it


was


aught in the year 1793? The only ex- clus've information on the subject is possessed by the University library. This week Mr. D. C. Wilkerson, of this city, presented Librarian Chand- er with a copy of "Lectures on Rhe- oric and Belles Letters," by Hugh Bla'r. D. D., who is described as being "one of the ministers of the high church and professor of rhetoric and Belles Letters in the University of Edinbaugh." This book is the sec- ond volume of the work, and bears the marks of hard usage and extreme age. It is stated in the introduction that this is a copy of the second Amer. ican edition, from the fourth London edition, published March 19, 1793. The book has been an heirloom in Mr. Wilkerson's family.

CRITICISES AMERICAN HUMOR.


An Eminent Cambridge Scholar Says Americans Also Lack Culture.


Mr. G. Fowes Dickinson, the emi- nent Cambridge (England) scholar and philosopher, who came to lecture in America last winter, and to feted, dined, and entertained at Harvard, Columbia, and other American uni- vers ties, has returned to his own country to criticise and appraise us after the manner of the usual Eng- lish egotist. Our humor lacks imagination, he adds, and consists largely in exag- geration.


It is suspected that Mr. Dickinson may also be lacking in both commodi- ties, especially former-remembering the courtesies extended to him by some of our foremost institutions of learning. But like the, Swede from the lumber camps, "We bane too po- lite to say so."


EDUCATIONAL SOCIETY MET.


Plans Are Being Made for the Organi- zation's Annual Reception.


The Women's Educational Society met last Friday afternoon in library hall. Two loans were made to stu- dents. It is the policy of the Society to render temporary material aid to students, chaging no interest. Al- ready more than thirty have been so helped.


The Society will hold its annual re- ception at Charlton Cottage some time in the near future.


KANSAS EDUCATION CHEAP.


Some Statistics Compare Favorably With Other States' Statistics.


The cost of educating the 2210 stu- dents enrolled in the university of Kansas during the year 1908-9 was $289,000. This amount would appear large to many at first glance. But Chancellor Strong has prepared a table based on the cost of running several other universities and this table shows that the cost of educating 2210 students at the university of Mis- souri for the year 1908-9 would have been about $424,000; at Nebraska about $384,000; at Colorado, about $400,000; at Iowa about $436,000; at California about $676,000; at Wiscon- sin about $585,000; at Ohio about $433,000. For the present year the cost will be higher than last year but it will still be much lower than in almost all other institutions of its class.

THE PARK DEBATE.


Contract Arranges It for April 12, in Ottawa ..


The debate between Park College, Parkville Missouri and Ottawa Uni versity is now practically an assured event. It will be held here on the second Tuesday in April, according to the contract, and Ottawa is to present the question by February 4th. President Heritage of the Council, and chairman of the debate commit- tee, returned the contract this week, with all its provisions satisfactory to Ottawa with the exception of one or two minor details which will undoubt- edly be stttled this week.


The contract allows each speaker eleven minutes of argument and pro- vides for a five minutes' rebuttal by each speaker. This is the university system of refutation. Three men from each college form the teams. The contract will be presented to the stu- dent body for ratification as soon as made.

A FELLOWSHIP BY KANSAS TO AN OTTAWA GRADUATE


STATE UNIVERSITY SEEKS TO ENCOURAGE MORE POST- GRADUATE WORK.


Ottawa Faculty to Select a Person- Praise for Ottawa's Science Department.


Announcement was made to Ottawa University this week that a fellow- ship for one year in any department of the post-graduate school at Kan- sas University will be given to a stu- dent from Ottawa University this year. The student so favored will be selected by the faculty of Ottawa. The fellowship pays $280 per year.


It is understood that it will be good for future years, since provision is made that in case no student from the graduating class is deemed suita- bl:, an alumnus may be chosen by the faculty. A faculty committee to have charge of recommending the student will probably be appointed soon.


It is stated by the Kansas faculty that the followship offer is being made to Ottawa, and other colleges, to a'd in building up the post-gradu- ate school of the university, and also to encourage graduate study among more graduates of colleges.


"It is not our wish to get the stu- dents of Ottawa, or any other col- lege before they graduate," Dean Blackmar told Prof. Wilson last Mon- day, while the latter was at Law- rence, "but to get them after they finish the four years' course."


The offer is a recognition of Ot- tawa's standing; in the front rank of denominational colleges in Kansas. Prof. Groner of the chemical science department, Prof. J. A. G. Shirk, of the physical science department, and Prof Wilson of the biological science department of Ottawa, were in Law- rence Monday. While there Prof. McClung, head of the department of
