Denver Social
Activities of
the Week
MOCK CONFERENCE A SUCCESS.

In blaze of glory the Mock Con
ference at Campbell church closed
Monday night, after eight days of
operation, during which they netted
the church nearly five hundred dol
lars, an amount which it is expected
the net returns will yet reach. Begin
ming with Monday night of last week.
which was the biggest financial sue
cess, and closing with the distribution
OF prizes and college night this week,
the public was given a treat in the
way of a rally such as it has never
before seen in Denver. This Mock
Conference idea, whicn originated
with Rev. Bray, the pastor, was
worked out by having the members
and friends in the rally, turning in
their money as do the pastors OF
churches in a real annual conference.
This feature was embellished with
musical and literary programs OF
merit on each night. ne program OF
Friday night was deemed the best.
Monday night was distribution of
prizes, all persons bringing in over a
certain amount being rewarded with
gifts. Nine were in this class, among
them being Miss Amelia Brown, Miss
Ethel Fitchue, Miss Rozie Ocrey,
Miss Eta Foster, Mrs. Celia NJ. Stew
art, Mrs. n. j. Washington, Mrs. E. Z.
Caldwell, Mrs. Fanny Johnson, Mrs.
Millie Adams and Mrs. Annie Saddler.
College yells written by Mrs. E. E.
Caldwell and singing college com
mencement address by Lawyer Town
senu, and college high jinks by stu
dents completed the delusion of a real
college night
The success which the members and
friends of Campbell church had was
materially assisted by the pastors and
members of other churches. The be-
ginning OF the pastorate of Rev. Bray
having started thus auspiciously,
seems destined to go on successfully,
to the delight of the church and to his
credit

Efforts Made to Erect a Gymnasium at
Howard University.

Washington.-Tte central gymnasi-
um committee of the General Alumni
Association of Howard university re
ports that since the ground breaking
on the proposed site for the new gym
nasium building. ut commencement
June last. activities have heeu re-
doubled along all lines.
Many of those who attended the
commencement returned to their fields
of labor with increased enthusiasm Cor
the extension work of their beloved
university. They have been instru
mental in securing pledges. and. in
many. instances. contributions, to help
swell the $4,000 gymnasium fund now
being raised among the alumni. Plans
are on foot locally for a sweeping
campaign. with the intention of reach
ing and enlistinG every available
source of aid To this end one of
the prominent ministers of this city
has rendered an open session Of his
church service for the purpose of in
teresting his congregation and those
who worship with them in the move
ment for the gymnasium and acquaint-
ting them with the beneficial effects
1t is likely to have.
At this service President S. NJ. New
man. the new head of Howard uni
versity. is to be invited. with the uni
versity choir and a representative from
the gymnasium committee, who will
present the cause. The collection
from this service is to be donated to
the gymnasium in the name of the
church. Several other churches are
planning a similar service. and it is
believed that the effort will be made
general in order to give every element
in Washington's religious life an or
portunity to extend helping hand to
this very worthy project.
To date the pledges amount to
about $1,000. with $500 in the hands
of the treasurer of the university.
The student pledges Numbering 800
indicating the loyalty of the students
to the movement. which matured oct
/, have been coming in rapidly during
the last two months. Professor Kelly
Miller. chairman of the committee:
Mr.. Robert A. Pelham. secretary treas
urer. and Mr. Shelby J. Davidson.
financial agent of the gymnasium com
mittee. are sanguine of success.
They hope to be able to announce
in the early part Of January suf-
ficient number of pledges made and
paid in as will Justify them in claim
ing the $4,000 promised by the trus-
tees of the university making $25 5000
(the full amounb available for the
long coveted gymnasium building.
With continued interest and increased
stimulus 1t is believed that plans and
drawings Of the building may be com
pleted before the next commencement,
and 1t is hoped the building will be
ready for the cornerstone laying at that
time.

The new tangled machinery of gov
ernment which Denver has had thrust
upon t by the reform parties" which
have come into power lately Is giving
free rein to lingo" in politics. Four
teen thousand people, not 10 per cent
of whom had read it, signed a petition
to initiate" an ordinance whereby the
telephone company would be held to
a certain rate schedule. The council
has not agreed to pass an ordinance
doing what they ask. 1t says that the
passage of the ordinance is equivalent
to the granting of franchise, a thing
which they say should come from the
vote of the people. Yet few months
ago. when the Citizens party was
seeking office and these same men
who now vote for the telephone ordi-
nance were themselves favoring di-
rect vote of the people on franchises,
and claiming the need of this reform
as the reason for the defeat of the
old parties. Now look at the change
of front!
The truth is that the new expert
ment in legislation called government
by direct vote of the people" is good
only for elections. Just as few per
sons know the wording of the pro
posed telephone regulation, and only
a small percentage of them can say
whether the courts would construe the
document as it is generally under
stood to mean, SO few of the people
keep posted on what is necessary for
good government and therefore di-
rect vote of the people is foredoomed
to represent their hopes rather than
their reason. 1t is the opportunity of
the lingo" politicians and newspa-
pers. If the council is going to I'M
dertake the regulation of semi-public
businesses, it should follow its own
judgment and be upheld in it by the
people, regardless of threats of recall.
