The play, mt. Bob" is an Eng
fish farce comedy built upon the.
lines of mistaken identity 1t is
screamingly funny and there is not
a dull moment in it. The situation
becomes funnier as the plot unrav-
els until it becomes almost a riot.
Mr.. Ed Mailman as the dignified
English butler, with a dislike for
cats is an artist in his part Rodge
Edmondson as Philip Royson, the
college chap, is typical college
hero. Poor, suppressed, confused
Robert Brown, who never gets to
tell why he came down" until the
final curtain, is portrayed by Mack
Lamberth and Mack displays his
ability in being able to so COM
pletely sink his own individuality
and assume the characteristics of an
English law clerk. Miss Modena
Hawkins as Patty, who has love
for dramatic art trips about stage
Ireciting Shakespeare as she dusts
and one would imagine she had
played the part for years. Miss Myr-
tile Maledon and Miss Susie Lomax
as carefree pleasure loving college
girls put a dash and wholesome
ness in their parts which beggars
description One of the most diff
cult and exacting roles is done by
Miss Virginia Longserre and her
work in the part OF Miss Luke, ty-
will be a revelation to her many adj
mirers. Aside from the play there
will be q number of beautifully
costumed choruses and specialties
introduced.

LESSONS HELPFUL
TO BIBLE READERS.

4
We call the attention of our read
ers to the Suggestive Questions on
the Sunday School Lesson" in this
issue. They only need to be read to
be appreciated, and If read careful
ly, comparing the questions with
the Scripture upon which they are
based, they will not fail to impress
the reader with their great signif-
! icance.
These questions :. are inspiring
sermons, addresses, and newspaper
articles in hundreds of towns; they
are a stimulus and help to thous-
ands of Bible Glass Teachers and
students. The man on the street
reads and discusses them with his
chum; they are read in the homes
of the people and afford interesting
subjects for profitable discussion. |
Almost any one question will sug
gest as much thought to the aver /
age reader, as would take a news I
paper column to express, and the /
thought win be his own.
The questions are not dry tones,
they are fresh, interesting, and
suggestive. and one can learn from
them, by way of suggestion, more
than by reading an entire maya
zine devoted to the philosophy OF |
everyday life.
These questions cover the all
round needs of human nature,
while they are a Wonderful help in
calculating, and enforcing the BIZ
{ble lesson upon which they are
based.

TIME Yellow Jackets have fin
ished their week 81 work. No
scrimmage was held Thurs
day, but a hard signal practice was
gone through and the team is now
putting on the finishing touches for
the battle Saturday.
Hutton will be in the game at
end, though for while it looked al
if he was not likely 70 be in good
shape. He has, however, come
around all right and will greatly
strengthen Techs defense. Hutton
is a good man at end and knows
the game. This is his third year
under Coach Heisman.
Moore is all right again and will
be seen at his place on right END
All of the injured men will be able
to start in this game and every
man is more than determined to
bring another English cup to Techs
trophy hall. 1t is privately and re-
luctantly admitted, however, that
this seems to be the wrong year 20
turn the trick.
Tech Not Up to Mark.
This time last year Tech men
were cheerful, for they had out
played Auburn from start to An
ish and had met defeat only be-
cause of one small incident 90
yard run by one Mr.. Newell.
A year ago the team was in good
physical shape. This year the men
are not actually injured, but abso-
lutely every man has some vulner-
able spot. The whole bunch is
playing on pure grit and nerve.
Loeb has a broken hand and a
sprained ankle. Hutton has a brof-
en- nose; Fielder both ankles
sprained; Luehrman, shoulder
smashed, while Mcdonald. one Of
the mainstays of the team, had to
be taken out of last Saturdays
game on account of old injuries re-
hurt. These are but few exam
pies, but they give an insight into
the kind OF stuff the men are made
out of, who will tackle tho Sewanes
Tigers with colors flying.
Georgia Men Watch Cams.
Very few new plays will be IN
corked Saturday, as the entire
Georgia team will be here to wit
ness the game and to get what An
formation they can for the "big
show" on the Saturday following
Loeb will be played at center to-
morrow. while Montague and Means
will play the guards. Captain
Luehrman and Colley will look AFT
err the tackles, while Hutton and
Moore will play the ends. This is
the best line Tech has and one that
is always there with the fight.
In the backfield Cook Will play
half, with Fielder as his running
mate. Mcdonald will play the
quarter and Thomasson the full
back.

With Clemson 0ut of
Way, Georgia Has but
J More Hard Battles

ATHENS, GA. Nov. S.-The Georgia
PLAYERS are back home, after a Veto
rious trip to Augusta, and have settled
down to get ready for Tech. The Geor-
gia men have no game Saturday. The
following Saturday they play Tech and
the closing game Of the season comes
Thanksgiving day with Auburn. All
the Georgia players will be in Atlanta
for the game between Tech and Sc
vance.
Yesterdays defeat OF Clemson, - TO
6. was easy sailing for the Red and
Black
At no time were the Georgians in
danger. and the only guess among the
1000 present was how great will be
the defeat?" The Georgia team was
much heavier than the Tigers.
Bob McWhorter was the individual
star of the game He ran repeatedly
where from % TO so yards He carried
the ball over the goal line twice for
touchdowns.
Second 70 McWnorter on the often
sive work was Charlie Thompson, the
Atlanta boy. This lad played great ball
and his line plunging counted one
touchdown. Bowden got the other.
Thompson kicked three of the four tries
at goal,
Clemsons one touchdown was the re-
suit Of some beautifully executed for
ward passes, Kangeter taking the ball
over.
Clemson vas outclassed in every de-
partment of play.
