DIR. KIRTLEY'S PHILOSOPHY


The lie that screens you today
will scorch you tomorrow.
No one can yield the larger vir-
tue who yields to the smaller vices.
There is radical relation be-
tween church going and character
growing.
One must not only be good but
good for something.
Corruption on the inside means
eruption on the outside.
The deadly blow of hate is a
deathblow to the hater.
Better push your work than be
pushed by it.
To direct your activities toward
good is to correct your proclivities
toward evil.
\ friend may find fault in you
while an enemy finds fault with
you.
1t is better to fall below "A high
mark than to exactly hit low
mark.
The gospel is not a curiosity for
sinners but cure for sin.
An instinct orrighteousness be-
comes an insight into the right.
Extremes meet when IA boy has
blains~ enough to till his fathers
shoes.
Imitation of another j, Iimita-
ton Of oneself,
When policy /, put above prin-
ciple the life grovel, rather than
grows.
Truth grid, Us with power while
error grippe, us with poison.

ball enthusiasts will have a chance to
see some of the old stars in action
again. A team composed of Califor-
ria students and alumni will play
enc from Stanford. An effort will be
made to have the game on California
field on account of it's nearness to
San Francisco, but II this fails it will
lie played at Stanford. This game,
coming SO close on the varsity, will
i;ive football fans chance to COM
pare Rugby and intercollegiate foot

Jules should show up to good adj
vantage in the hands of the men who
are to play 1t, even considering the
shor: time they will have to prepare.

In the fifth inning black cat ran
across the field and into the bleach
ers. This incident recalled a game
TO Devereaux' mind which he played
in at San Jose years ago. Right in
the heat of battle jack rabbit was
chased out of the brush and it broke
up the game temporarily. There
we're two men on bases" remarked
the old Red Dog, "and they even
gave the rabbit chase. Borchers
threw his pitching glove at it. An
other fellow hurled bat. We chas-
cd the rabbit across the field and we
cot him. 1t broke its leg jumping off

Rev. Wilbert p. Ferguson, the Uni

charges of immortality were preferred

The charges against the University

Following the preliminary hearing
some weeks ago when he was suspend

Ferguson took up the life insurance

Harry Can Walk Twenty.three Cement
Sidewalk Squares on His Hands and
Says He May Join a Circus When
He Grows up Big.
Harry Bowman, who lives on South
Second street, holds a unique position
among Norfolk boys.
Harry is nine years old. He can
walk farther on his hands than any
other boy in Norfolk.
with his feet dangling overhead
Harry can walk twentythree cement
sidewalk squares. When most boys
take pride in merely being able to
"stand on their heads" Harry Bow
man rises up on his hands and walks
UP and down the sidewalk.
Boys who try this feat use the lines
in the cement sidewalks to measure
by. How far can you walk on your
hands? Harry Bowman can walk
twenty-three squares without twitching
an eye.
Harry can also turn delightful hand
springs and can turn himself into a
whirling cartwheel. He also twists
around on trapeze little.
1t is something to be at the'head OF
your class. There are any number OF
men in town who think that they are
the best lawyer, the best ball player,
the best railroad man, the best poker
dealer or the best horseman, but Har'
~, bowman has them all skinned FOR
he can walk farther on his hands than
anyone else In the city.
Harry's head is little turned over
his accomplishments for he says that
when he grows up he is going out with
a circus.
Harry's father is B. r. Bowman, a
mason, who lives on South Second
street. Harry goes to the Lincoln
school.

Discussing the approaching trial the
Lincoln News says:
That the accused preacher will fight
the case to the bitter end is evident.
However, it is thought possible that
further proceedings will be dropped
when the Methodist conference meets
in Lincoln Wednesday. Mrs. Cross,
the complainant, is not in the city,
and, according to information from re-
liable sources, she will not willingly
come to Lincoln to give testimony
against the minister.
At present Mrs. Cross and relatives
are visiting in Colorado. Mrs. Cross
has been away for several weeks. Her
friends claim that change OF climate
was necessary, worry over the extend
ed publicity given the scandal having
caused her health to fail until she was
almost a nervous wreck. Her husband
accompanied her to Colorado, but 1t is
understood he now is at University
Place looking after business affairs
preparatory to leaving the state and
establishing a home near Pueblo.
After the preliminary hearing OF the
accused some weeks ago before the
church board, the preacher gave ou
the statement that he would eXert
