rewarded, and it's efforts have been
crowned with deserved success.

The bi-weekly meeting of the
Pieriap Circle was held at the
customary time and place last
Sunday afternoon. There was
but one absentee. One new men,
Der was enrolled and assigned to
class D. On motion, the secreta-
ry was authorized to choose from
the old Chautauqua series, books
for those members who are not
supplied. Under the head of new
business the matter of changing
the manner of procedure was dis
cussed at some length without re-
suit except, perhaps, to show the
futility of the attempt, and that
the majority are in favor of leav-
ing it as it is. The following pa
pers were then read:
"Universal Peace" was the theme
of report by member of class
f. This paper was strongly in
favor of arbitration as a means Of
settling international disputes;
was we'll gotten up and the discus
sion it provoked clearly indicated
it's value to the circle. Such pa
pers are always welcome and this
one serves we'll as pattern.
The next number was contrib
uted by the scientifically inclined
member of class A who had for
his subject Creation, from a
Scientific Standpoint" In his
introduction he referred to "the
profundity of the subject at issue. F."
and the critic, in his review, made
special mention of a sigh that
escaped the member as he mount
ed the rostrum-said sigh having
produced several echoes before
the conclusion of that number.
The paper was, however, not void
of points which were we'll defined
by one of our humorists who
likened them to the points on a
lean critter.
The vice-president furnished
the next report entitled "James
Monroe" This paper, the critic
said, was a concise summary of
the principal events in the career
of Monroe and was rendered in a
very acceptable manner.
Concluding the program was a
paper submitted by a member of
class B, the title of which was
''The Stage as an Educator. "
This was the occasion of this
gentleman's debut in the Pierian
Circle and the impression he made
was favorable. His paper was
highly interesting and had an oc-
casional bit Of humor.
After the critics report, the es-
sencr of which is in the foregoing,
the MEETING adjourned.

Those who are occupying cots

"Well, I am not so badly situated
