make these long trips away from home.
1t advertises the college, and that's
what he wants. Why, the football team
did more to advertise Hope last year
than anything else"
Perhaps it did," replied Edward
slowly. He was facing really serious
condition, for the loss of time out Of
like to face. He was slow student,
but very conscientious, and it did not
appeal to his sense Of fairness that he
should be passed in any department
unless he had actually done the work
IL he went on this six days trip, 1t
would mean that he must pay some
one to take his paper unless the foot
ball association would do it, and even
then no amount of money could make
up the loss of college time.
The team all urged him not to drop
out. The pressure brought to bear was
something which every college boy can
easily understand.
At last Edward said: 81 want to do
the right thing, Of course. Will you
leaVe IL 10 the PRESIDENT! IL he says
It's all right and approves Of the sched-
ule, I'll CO."
There was moments hesitation on
the captains part. He was not sure
of the president. Still, in the short
time he had been at the head of af-
fairs he had said very little about ath-
letics and had not yet dictated any
thing. Besides, he was popular as
young man and teacher and had been
present on the ball field as an inter
ested spectator at the last game.
"All right" said the captain. "I'm
agreed" The rest of the team assent.
I'd, and that afternoon Edward, the
captain and one other member of the
team called at the presidents Office.
AS they went in Edward, who knew
the president better than any of the
other students knew him, thought he
knew what his decision would be. And
yet even he was surprised at the in
terview that followed as the president
welcomed them and sat there facing
them. his kindly but serious look going
quici@J from one to another Of the
three students.

OF course he felt obliged to preach his
little lecture on athletics, but he's evil
IDENTIFY with us all right"
So spoke the captain, not going very
deeply into the presidents motives in
letting Edward make the trip. Ed
ward, who knew the president better,
thought he could see his reasons in
part at least.
He saw the reasons better every day
Of that memorable week. The first
game played was won by Hope, and a
telegram from the captain to the COL
lege told the news In less than ten
words.
"Hope, 10; Falrview, 8. Slayton
broke collar bone"
Hope had jubilation that night out
on the campus, with q bonfire and
speeches. The breaking of Slayton's
collar bone was incidentally mention
ed. but every one felt easy about the
substitutes who had gone along with
the team to take the place of disabled
members.
The next game was played after an
all night ride OF 200 miles. The team
was somewhat battered. for its victory
over Fairylew was hard won, and it's
night ride was against it, but the mem
bers went into the game confident Of
success.
1t was. in this game that Edward re-

CHAPTER vi.

The captain started the interview by
saying:
president Royce, we've come to see
you about the matter of our football
schedule for next weeks trip" Here
the captain rapidly mentioned the
teams and places where Hope college
eleven expected to play. 'Now, Mr..
Blake, who is our best player for right
tackle, does not like to take the time
out of the course to be gone the week.
but he has agreed to leave matters, as
we have also. to your decision. 1t seems
to me, and TO all the other members Of
the team, as If these games we have ar
ranged are important and will adver-
tise the college, especially If we win,
as we probably shall If Blake goes. If
he should drop out, it would be q Sc
are going to be kept up with any en-
thusiasm 1t seems necessary to play
these games. That's the way l feel
about it."
The captain paused, and the presi-
dent waited to hear from the others.
Edward waited until the other mem
Der Of the team had heartily seconded
the captains remarks, and then, as the
president turned thoughtful face to-
ward him, he said with considerable
hesitation:
"Im In q good deal of doubt, sir, as
to what l ought to do. like football
and enjoy the game. 1 think the train
ing has improved my health. If all the
playing was here at home l think l
could keep up with my studies all right.
1t Is the absence of week that makes
me doubtful about going. I'm n slow

Of fact, is a mere honorary piece of

reason being that it would be impos-

from any single point in either.
The reporter is to be discerned close
to the honorable gentleman who has
the floor, probably occupying a seat,
for on most occasions there are plenty
of empty desks at this season. The
reporter is known by his open notebook,

cause to be issued a call for a general
convention of these central bodies as
such time and place as may be selected

the labor question shall be discussed in
it's entirety and the International inter-

The above is our plan. We submit it
to you for careful and respectful con-
