The Lawmen's Movement is an out- growth of the Student Volunteer Movement. Both are interdenomina- tional, the Laymen's Movement seek- ing to interest business and profes- sional men in foreign missions that thev mav provide funds for the rapid spread of the Christian gospel, and the Student Volunteer Movement seeks to interest students that they mav give not only of their means, but of their lives, for the same work. Neither seeks to send out missionar- ies to foreign countries but they seek to assist and further the various de- nominational mission boards in the latter work.

The teams were very evenly match- ed and the game was anybody's until the last whistle blew. At the end of the first half the score stood 18 to 14 in favor of Ottawa.
The Wellsville boys probably out- roughed Ottawa but as far as team work was concerned, Ottawa had the better of it. Captain Hickey was easily the star of the game.

DR. DEERING'S ADDRESS.
Well Known Educator in Japan Spoke to Ottawa. Students.
One of the best chapel addresses of the year was made a few days ago by Dr. J. L. Deering, of Yokohoma, Japan. Dr. Deering was for a num- ber of years at the head of the Bap- tist Theological seminary in Yoko- homa. Recently, however, he was sent on a tour of inspection of all the mis- sions in China, Japan, Korea, and the Philippine Islands, and he is now rep- resenting the American Baptist Mis- sionary Union in the extension of the Lawmen's Movement.
His visit to Ottawa was occasioned by the laymen's banquet at which he was one of the principal speakers.
In his address in the chapel Dr. Deering spoke of the rapidly chang- ing conditions in the east occasioned by the Oriental nations trying to get in line with the civilization of the west. These people, in grasping for the elements of western civilization, are not doing so because of their love for the west, but because of their hatred for it, he said.
Their old systems of religion hada restraining influence upon them, but with this restraint removed and no higher ideals introduced among them, and with the other elements of west- ern civilization in their possession, the Oriental nations are liable to be- come a menace to the Occident.
in
In closing his adderss, Dr. Deering spoke of the opportunities in the east commerce, in governmental posi- tions, as teachers, but greatest of all, and most important of all, in Chris- tian work among the nations there.
A WASHINGTON PROGRAM.
Memories of Father of His Country Revived in Olympian Program ..
The academic division of the Olym- pian society had a Washington pro- gram last Saturday evening. Carl Welsh read the first paper of the evening on "Washington in Camp," after which Edna Umstott discussed Washington's "Fifty-Seven Rules of Behavior," and Jessie Scoville read a paper on "Martha Washington." Ray Humeston discussed current events. The final number on the program was a vocal solo by Joe Brown.
The meeting was one of special in- terest, every number on the program being well prepared, and it was well rendered. The collegiate division did not meet Monday evening on account of the basketball game in the gym- nasium.

You probably know something of our preparation for this event, and the changes we have gone through, and that this re-establishment in our new, permanent home means a good deal to us. We want to make it mean a good deal to you. We do not believe you will have seen a neater, more attractive clothing store than we now show. We feel sure that you will have seen none with more modern equipment for serving you well. There will be music during the evening.
We shall show approved patterns in the Stein- Bloch and Tech lines of men's clothing; in the "Frat" line for young men, and in John B. Stetson and Kingsbury hats.
We shall esteem it a pleasure to count you among our guests for the evening.

OTTAWA BEAT FAIRMOUNT; FINISHED HOME SEASON
CONGREGATIONALISTS OF WICH- ITA WERE GAME LOSERS TO THE TUNE OF 36 TO 24.
Coach Thomas' Men, Defeated at Em- poria, Pushed Ottawa Hard, But . Lost Out on Score.
The Ottawa University men's team finished the season basketball at home Thursday evening, winning the game with Fairmount College's team by a score of 36 to 24. It was one of the best exhibitions of the season. The visitors had been defeated by College of Emporia the night before, but fought hard here.
Arch McCandless got seven of Ot- tawa's goals and distinguished him- self by playing a fast game, although he was guarded by one of the best guards playing here this season, Plank. Alderman, Hickey and Blair completely shut out their men from scoring. The work of Bruce, of Fair- mount, at free goal throwing, de- serves special mention. Every man on both teams played a heady game. Hickey was disqualified in the sec- ond half for fouling, and replaced by Barrett. Miller replaced Hodgson, who received a minor injury, in the second half.
The Fairmount team was accom- panied by their coach, Roy K. Thom- as, who was a fine referee.
As a curtain raiser, a wrestling match between Arthur Erwin and Ray Lundy was pulled off, each man getting a fall. The contest was de- clared a draw.
A newly organized band of fifteen pieces, led by Walter Lusk, furnished music during the game. The score: Continued on page 4.

THE STORY OF PAST CONTESTS WITH THE ATTENDANT "SCRAPS."
University Orators Have Won Four Seconds, Two Firsts and One Third in State Contests.
The 1910 state oratorical contest will have been held before the next Campus reaches its readers. For more than a quarter of a century the oratorical contest has been the one great "get-together" occasion for the colleges and universities of Kansas. In "ye olden time" it was attended with great excitement, and the annual "scrap" was as much a feature as the annual oratorical contest, and some- times more interesting.
