Price is the originator Of the plan of
experimenting for two weeks of "liv
ing as Jesus would"
Every Christian is trying to live as
Christ would" said Price, "but my ex-
perience of few hours is that we are
not always confronted by the question
Am doing what Christ would do un
der the circumstances?
at is this question that has contin'
ually presented itself that proves how
many of my actions. thoughts and

myself every time do good thing OF
leave bad thing undone.'

fourth Quaker to win the sweepstakes
in the Grand Indiana Handicap of the
colleges of the state, in the last sew
en- years.
Have Had Two Goods.
In the past few years the college has
been represented by two goods, one
of them taking first and the other sec
ond. So successful has the coed
scheme been that some of the colleg.
es have complained at times that the
Judges were influence by the charms
OF the pretty girls. But Earlham hopes
and firmly believes that the speech of
Miss Fenimore and her other resourc-
es will land the prize in the Earlham
camp. The rooters are therefore in
tent upon the roofing and the song
stresses are running up and down the
scale as in the hope that they will
have reason and necessity to be in
good voice at the close of the con
test
viii Be Many Colleges"
All the more important colleges in
the state will be gathered together in
the state contest. On the list are De
paw. Wabash. Franklin. Butler, Notre
Dame, Hanover and Earlham. The
contest will be one of the most close
~ matched in many years and all the
colleges are claiming the victory.
Earlham's contestant last year was
Walter Miles who succeeded In get
ting the coveted first place. He is
now the professor OF Biblical litera-
ture in Penn College. 1t is very I'M
usual for one college to win twice in
succession but that is the trick the
Quakers hope to do.

"UncIe Toms Cabin"

Stetson's Uncle Toms Cabin with
out destroying the venerable earmarks
Of this wonderfully attractive organi-
cation of Harriet Beecher Stoves
great work. has added much to the
features introduced. The fun is now
enlivened by the FRANKS of the two
Marks, while more of the quaint pas
times of plantation life as it was "be-
TO- de wah'" in the way of cake walks
buck and wing dancing, jubilee sing
ing, etc, give a more realistic glimpse
of the latter days of slavery. This ex-
cellent company will be seen on Feb.
IL at the Gennett theater, when the
time honored procession of Topsies,
Marks, Uncle Tom and Little Eva
will march right into the hearts of the
people, despite the fact that for over
half a century the play has engaged
the attention of many audiences. and
although some of the grandparents
may be there with their grand-chil-
dren, there will be no less heartiness
in their applause than when years ago
they first saw it. The Stetson COM
pany, it's scenery, specialties and ac-
cessories will be found to be the great
est and best numerically in America.
