Mild weather continued to favor the Epworth Leaguers on Thursday, the third day of the Institute sessions.
 Professor Hewitt's third lecture was a fine description of Hosea as the Prophet of Love. This was followed by an inspiring talk by MT. Laumas ter on The Christians Qualification for Service, emphasizing the need of the Holy Spirit. The third hour. as us- ual. was taken up with the Round Ia ble Talks by the several heads of de- partments in the society houses.
 To Prevent Poverty and Crime.
 Rev. w M. Gilbert again during the next period laid stress upon the fact that We should aim to prevent poverty and crime as much if not more than seek remedies for their effects. He outlined agencies for temporary relief and permanent cure.
 Lester Clee had the closing forenoon hour. as usual and talked about how not only to make boys good, but good for something. Too many are won to Christ and brought into the church, and then the church seems to forget them. Give them something to do.

Jackets End Season
With Clemson Team
Thanksgiving Day

The Clemson Tigers will be the
Jackets opponents on Thanksgiving
Day in their annual battle. the last
game of the season for both teams.
Clemson has come forward with
rapid strides during the last few
weeks. Football experts say they are
advancing more rapidly than any
eleven in the South, and by Turkey
day will be more formidable than at
any time this season.
Clemson attended the Tech Georgia
game. The coaches saw the game
from the grandstand, and of what
Tech used in this game they took
copious notes.
Tech was unable to score on Geor-
gia, while Clemson rolled up 10 points.
The dope here seems to favor Glenn
son.

Of Dodging Him

NEW YORK, Nov. 17.-While TAX
Ing light exercise at the new Polo

is the best white heavyweight in the

IF Willard signs articles to box
me in the Garden on December 2, l
will be very much surprised" said
Morris to-day Il don't believe he
wants any of my game, for he has
known me for years when we were
both in Oklahoma. If he gets into
the ring with me. just say that there
isn't the slightest doubt in my mind
that 1 will knock him out before the
end of the tenth round. Willard can
not stand punishment.
LAS for Gunboat Smith, l think the
sporting public realizes now that he
is afraid to meet me again. l did
not foul him in the fifth round of our
