ALMA COLLEGE ENDOWED
FOR @55.SOOOO
The Youngest College in Michigan Has Made
Rapid Advancement During Its Few
Years of Existence.

Although Alma College is the youngest college in
Michigan in point of years, yet it by no means the
smallest or the least in importance. Established in
1887, it has grown steadily until today it is strong
the oldest educational institution of the kind in the
state Liberal friends have worked to make the college
what is and place it upon sound financial footing
the endowment now having reached the very SUBJ
stantial sum of $253,SO0 the last being the gift of
$2600O to be held in trust until the Synod shall have
made up amount to equal $50,000
Rev. A. F. Bruske, D. D.. succeeded the late DR..
Geo. F. Hunting president of the college in 1891,
and since assuming the responsibilities of the position
he has worked diligently to place the institution upon
financial footing whereby the future welfare of Alma
College would be assured. How well he has sue
ceeded all aware.
On the morning of December 4, President Bruske
read the following announcement in chapeand we
are certain that the friends of the college will be
pleased to learn what he said
"For about year and half it has been announced
in various ways that generous friend of Alma Col
lege had promised to give $4,000 for the further
dowment of the college, on condition that another
$4,000 should be raised from the Synod of Michigan.
The Synod of Michigan has acted upon the PROPOSE
tion accepting it with absolute unanmity. Last year
the churches raised 81 800 toward the $25000 This
year the Synod appointed the last Sabbath in January
1904, as Education Day, during which the pastors
to preach Christian education and the people are
to have the opportunity to give average LOO
per member to meet the remainder of the SIS 900 of its
pledge.
"But in the meantime the donor of the first $25,000
being convinced of the good faith of the Synod and
desiring that the college should have the benefit of
the gift at once, proposed to put property to the value
of $4,000 at the service of the college Immediately;
said property to be held in trust until the $4,000
promised by the Synod should be raised.
"On Tuesday, December 3, the Executive Commit
tee met accepted the gift and appointed L. A. Sharp
of Alma, the person to hold the property in trust
On January !, therefore, the college will be put in
possession of the additional income from endow-
ment of $26,000."

The P|GSK|N K|CKERS
Of ALMA COLLEGE.
Although Not a Championship Team This
Year, The Members Have Done
Good Individual Work.

The football season at the college, just closed, has
not been the most successful season that Alma has
had from the standpoint of games won. Of the six
college games played but two have been victories.
The success of the season. however, cannot be meas
ured by the games won. This year much new
material in the lineup and some of had had no foot
ball experience before.
There were many disoouragements at the start.
When the students returned at the opening of school,
coach had been secured and it was not until more
than week later that Fuller Amas former star,
induced to take the place. When he arrived he had
to face the proposition of team for the most part
green and new set of rules that left football every
where in the air.
At first all the responsible positions had to be filled
with new men and it was not until three weeks after
the season opened that Mcbride, Anderson and Dun
ning who finally held the backfeld positions, re-
moved the restrictions of parental authority and en-
tered the game.
Meanwhile the team had lost its first game to M. A..
c., IL to 0, and the enthusiasm which was so mani
fest in the student body had cooled off. Directly,
however, the team took brace and after losing the
first game to Albion, 6 to 6, the team developed in
two weeks to such extent that they won the sec
ond game from the Methodist school, II to 5, and
completely outcassed their opponents
After defeat at the hands of Kalamazoo II to O. a
victory over Olivet looked for, but Mcbride had
to quit the game and the spirit was lacking and Ovet
won the closest contest of II to 0. The team
succeeded this year in easily defeating Big Rapids,
which made good showing against the u. of M
After winning the championship twice in three
years previous to this Alma could hope to keep
up the pace, but the work done this year will get
things in shape for great team in the near future.
The records and statistics of the men who played
this year as follows:-

The Public Library.

How can the superintendent of the
public schools become most service able
to the public library?
He should insist that the public
library be made an educational insti
tuition, separated from his own, and
governed by Librarian as competent
to manage her institution as he is to
manage the schools He should con-
fine his efforts to so organizing his
81 hool that he may send its pupils at
the end of their sojourn with HIM and
his teachers into the world with a
power and desire for self advance
ment, that few schools have yet done.
To do this he must call for teachers
who know how to use books. Not
those who simply know books. He
must permit the teachers to deal
directly with the things that are
essential in school work, and give
them the time that has been wasted
on non essentials for growth in
strength and grace, daily. He must
see that qualitity he not sacrificed to
quantity in the work of the pupils.
Good reading must he done rather
than much reading. Power to inter-
pret book must not be sacrificed
for the reputation of having skinned
over many books. The pupil must
come to know that books are some of
the instruments by means of which he
carves out his own destiny. The sup
erintendent is to make the public
school preparatory school in the
highest and best sense for that larger
school-the lib-ary-the university
of the community.
