had beaten the Social, is both unkind and
unfair, a. the Juniafa was al the time ready
and willing to play whenever the Social would
comply with the rules Of the game. The re-
fusal Of the Social to do this Is the true and
only reason Why the Juniata did not play

kind feeling has been exhibited on either
side, as the object Of these tests Of skill is not
70 destroy hut TO cultivate social relations
The hospitshle treatment of the Resolutes on
the ID inst, oy the Spartan of Huntingdon
has already done much to allay any Ill feeling
that may have existed among our people.
