The mon .hly social meeting of Grace
Epworth League was held Friday night at
the parsonage. The programme presented
by the literary committee exceued by far
any previous record. and TO say that il
was enjoyed by those present is putting it
mid The main feature of the programme
was the debating contest on the question
Resolved. That Collegiate Education
Is Necessary 10 the Highest Success in
Life and was argued for the affirmative
side by Messrs Marvin O Neal ana w. 9.
Hughes. while Messrs. 7. \. Morgan and
j. N. McGillis represented the negative
side. The arguments used on both sides
gave evidence of careful study and prep
araton, and the puns drawn into the dis
cussion were most humorous, and at times
provoked hearty laughter ana prolonged
applause. In reviewing the debate in all
its bearings the judge, Rev. j. A. Smith,
was inclined o the opinion that the pre-
ponderance OF the argument was in favor
of the affirmative, and gave his decision
accordingly.
The arguments advanced on both sides OF
the question were very creditable, and dis
played ability on the part OF the speakers
OF a high order
