league with st. Johnsbury and arrange
a schedule of two games week, from

Joint Debate.

Joint Debate.
The subject under discussion between
the Atheniap and Ade1phian societies at
Academy hall, Friday evening, was. Is
Naval Supremacy Worthy Ambition 4"
The presidents of the two societies, Miss
Margaret L. Ely and Donald Comstock,
presided, the latter making short adj
dress of welcome. The ladies were given
the affirmative and their points of argu-
ment were: Supremacy in the navy
has been necessity; present conditions
prove that it is a necessity; and the pros
poets from good authorities are that fu-
ture conditions will call for supremacy In
naval power. The. speakers were
Misses Frances NJ Richardson, Ellen
Bone and Alice L. Kicker. On the mega
tive side. Dwight Coolidge. Herbert
Cummings and Harold French argued
from the facts that superiority is more
to be desired than supremacy; that the
cost, uncertainty, relative value, and
degrees of supremacy should be consid-
cred, and, finally, that the desire for
supremacy should Hot be considered an
ambition.
Each one spoke strongly and interest
ingly, and the final arguments were well
presented by Miss Richardson and Her
bert Cummings.
While the judges, Miss Caroline Wood
ruff, DIR. S. 6. Barnes and Rev. A. F.
Walch, were considering the decision the
audience was entertained with music by
the double quartet of the school and u
solo by Miss Bessie Wright, with piano
and violin accompaniment.
The judges brought in decision in
favor of the affirmative, and the gavel,
which has been held by the Adelphian So
ciety, was presented to the Athenians.
Misses Ellen Bone and Agnes Whitelaw
entertained some OF the senior givls at a
sugar party at the Rowell boarding
house, Saturday evening.
An athletic benefit is to be given in

for the slightest opening.
And by contrasted dignity, probity,
and efficiency the carpet-bagger has so
far proven surprising blessing, the
substitute being as yet a speculative
quantity. Public priggishness and
meaningless platitudes, be they ever
so strenuous and unexpectedly su.
perheated, are not likely to be consid.
cred evidence of craftsmanship, and
when the destnies OF this Territory
are held in the balance, the measure
will not be gagged metallically, but by
the weight of public opinion.
