BEATEN IN DEBATES


In the debate Friday afternoon be-
~ cen teams representing the Canon
City high school and Centennial high
school OF Pueblo the visitors won.
owing to the superior coaching on
the part of their instructors. The
debate took place in the auditorium
of the high school building here and
was listened to with great Interest
by large number of people. includ-
ing students. teachers and others.
The question discussed was. Re
solved. that the Philippine Islands
should become the permanent possess
sion OF the United States The Can
on City team. which was composed of
Howard Burton. James McClintock
aud Ernest Atkinson. affirming the
proposition.
The judges were Rev. ]. r. Thorn
ar pdstoi VI iht httuouASt tuuicu
at Florence. MIR. Highberger of Pu-
eblo and ]. w. Emmerson OF Canon
City. Each speaker was allowed
twelve minutes for the presentation
Of his argument and they were grad
ed on logic. language. delivery and
such other matters as ere usually
considered in connection with such
discussions.
The arguments presented by the
Canon City team was as pertinent.
persuasive and forcible as that ad-
yanced by their opponents. but the
Pueblo boys showed an easier decla-
nation. due TO a more Thorough train
ing ON the part OF their instructors.
Too much praise cannot be given the
debaters OF both the home and visit
ing teams for the masterly manner
in which they handled the discus
sion. All OF them were prepared with
q lot OF well collated facts. which
they presented in supprot Of their
conten. or. In all OF the more essen
tiaI features OF the debate the Canon
City team was not whit behinl its
competitor. and it orly lost because
OF an insufhciency OF drill in the mat
ter OF teliYery. In the next contest
the result may be different.
The Centennial team consisted OF
George Penny, Lewis Goss AID Irv-
Ing Smith Its members realized that
its contest with caLon City w6i'd
not be an easy one in any sense and
they made n thorough preparation for
the occasion. more SO. perhaps. than
was the case with their competitors.
The result OF Friday afternoons
debat should not discourage the Can

spire It's members to achieve a vic
tory next time.

SEEING THE PANAMA CANAL.

only a very few Americans ever will
see with their own eyes the great canal
at Panama. Nearly all of US have
seen maps that show, in black and
white outline, the course Of the great
waterway.
Fortunately, there is a type Of map
which is not the dead, flat outline,
but which comes as nearly as may be
to giving one an idea of how the canal
looks. This is a birds eye view Of
the whole canal made under the di-
rectiOn of the National Geographic So
