ONE MORE GAME.
St. Johns Hard At Work On
The Gridiron For The
Last Battle.

The students Of st. Johns having
won the championship of the State
last Saturday, have not stopped work
on the gridiron, but are still practic-
ing hard for their game with Penn
svlvania Military Academy at Chester,
Pa. on Thanksgiving Day.
This game is looked forward to by
the local collegians, who are alwas re-
ceived and treated with the greatest
courtesy by the Pennsylvania Military
College authorities, and q feeling of
strong friendship exists between the
two institutions. It is q great pity
that all colleges do not realize the
value of possessing the reputation of
gentlemen.
The game on Thursday will show
out in strong contrast to the treat
ment by the st. Johns football team
last Saturday with the Western Mary
land College, where the crowd, con-
sisting largely of the Western Mary
land students, swarmed over the
field, guying the Annapolis eleven
interfering and behaving in a
most unsportmanlike manner. On
this account the officials found it nec-
essary to stop the game several times.
1t is needless to say that in her foot
ball history, st. Johns never received
more ungentlemanly or unportmanlike
treatment save, perhaps, several years
ago, at the same place, and also in a
similar game.

MISSIONARY SERMON.
Rev. George w. Miller Reviews
Mission Work of The
Church

The sermon Sunday morning at the
First Nj. Il. Church by the pastor,
Rev. George w. Miller, was mis-
sionary one, founded on the text why
This Waste?' rebuke of a disci-
pie to the woman who had broken the
alabaster box of ointment upon the
Saviour. DIR. Miller reviewed the mis-
sionary work of the church, and said
that, If viewed only as a temporal
matter, it had paid for the labor and
money expended on it by its contri-
button to science, trade and literature,
The sermon was q brilliant review
of the work and labors of the Christ
ian church. The sermon was prepar-
atory to the annual missionary collec-
tion taken in the church, which, this
year, will be made ON Sunday next.
Among the hymns sung were Watch
man, Tell Us of The Night" and
From Greenland's Icy Mountains.
The sermon at night was ON the text,
"Strive to enter in ct the strait gate. "
The protracted meetings will con.
tinue during the week, services being
at 8 O'Clock. The annual Thanksgiv.
ing union services of the Presbyterian
and two Methodist congregations will
take place Thursday morning at II
O'Clock in the First M. e. Church.
The sermon win be preached by the

THE ARNY-NAVY GAME.
Different Style of Play Adopted
BY Local Team-Chances
Favor West Point
This Year.

A fitting climax to the Eastern sea-
son will be found in the Army Navy
game next Saturday. Again this year
the West Point team has made first
class record, not up TO that of year
ago, but still much better than that
Of Annapolis.
Truth to tell, the material at West
Point has classed rather higher than
that at Annapolis, and there has been
no end of difficulty in preparing a
representative Navy team for the big
annual game. The candidates are
Younger and lighter than their Army
brethren, and while the back field is
close to the standard, the line lacks
weight and strength, as was clearly
demonstrated by the game with the
Georgetown team.
Hitherto Annpaolis has chung to the
Princeton style of play, while West
Point has used the Yale system. In
deed, their annual struggles in re-
cent years have been close counter
parts of the big college struggles. But
this year the Midshipmen have dis
carded the Princeton style of game,
and have been prepared for the big
contest by Yale men, teaching purely
Yale methods. While the change may
prove beneficial, it is extremely doubt
full that il will make enough differ
ence to result in q victory.
The Princeton style of play was ad-
mirably suited to the light fast Navy
team, and il is doubtful il the new
system can be thoroughly built mp in
one season. The Army, on the con-
frarv ralvinU on graduate YALE tAuUht
coaches, has had no revolution in
methods to go through this season,
and the work of the cadets has i'm
proved steadily and surely since the
early October games. Holding Har-
ward down to a single score and scor-
ing ON Yale were accomplishments tc
be proud Of, and the victory over
Chicago capped the climax of prepara-
tion for the annual match with Navy.
On form and granting the rallyinR
power of the Navy, West Point should
score q notable victory in the final
game of the season. BALTIC. "Sun. =
