LARGE CROWD
GREETS CRAIG
MORNING SIDE COLLEGE HEAD
WELL RECEIVED By METHOD
lST MEN AT LINCOLN BAN.
QUIET.

DIR. Alfred r. Craig, president of
Morning Side college of Sioux CITY.
speaking at the Lincoln day banquet
of the men of the First Methodist
church last evening, was greeted by
an assemblage OF nearly 200 laymen
seated around six mammoth tables.
lhe greeting the distinguished Wis
itor received was we'll worthy of the
occasion.
The presiding officer was DIR. b. A.
Bobb. Following the blessing said by
DR.. w. G. Weaman, the women of
the church aid society served a sum
ptuous banquet. Although the serv-
ing would have taxed the commissarv
department of an army. the women
OF the society treated their guests to
a feast hat "a greatly enjoyed. At
ter the banquet, DR.. Seaman intro
duced the speaker of the evening in
his characteristic humorous vein.
The subject of DR.. Crais's address
was business And the Man"
This is the day of business-of
big business" said DR.. Craig, in open
ing, 'and it seems to me that there
is no more vital question. America is
the great business nation of the world
and here business is coming to it's.
legitimate recognition.
business demands all that is in
the man in this age. 1t demands cap
ital, brains and moral courage. There
is no limit to the possibilities open
to the young man with the brains
and the moral courage, as the capital
viii be provided for him who has the
other requirements.
Business is relentless in its de-
mands. 1t is not q reformer, yet
those who would be truly successful
must nave the reliance of manly men.
Without the n business, commerce
or industry cannot be carried on.
America needs the same kind of
patriotism i'll her business affairs
that she does on the field of battle.
1t is appropriate now. on the birth
day OF Lincoln. that we consider the
value of patriotism in peace and in
business. Patriotism is but another
name for honesty, aud you business
mon ran use your religion in our
business.
III you let the devil have the field
marts of trade, the hall OF society. /
ho lot bCiitNt l!it ne is mean enough
to disturb religion at her prayers
What Il business needs is that it
be made religious, that it be put on
the higher planes of life. If God has
given YOU a%}talent, it is that you can
serve him in the realm of business as
much as in the church or in the mis-
sion field"
During the course of his address.
DR.. Craig took occasion to lauu the
presence of Theodore Roosevelt in
American business and political af-
fairs. NO matter what we think of
Mr.. Roosevelt personally or polite
ally" he said, we have got to adj
nit that when he demanded in the
two-ffsted way that we have honesty
in II affairs, he did a great thing"
One of the interesting feature of
the evening. following the address,
was the response made wheL DIR.
Bobb called on all to stand who had
voted for Lincoln. Seven arose and
had cast their votes for the First
American" The meeting concluded
with the announcements by DR.. ]. S.
Hoagland.

FEACE hONORS
TO FRED HATCH
WINS LOCAL ORATORICAL EVENT
BY CLOSE MARGIN FROM
FOUR OTHER CONTESTANTS

In the second annual peace orator
zeal contest OF DAKOTA Wesleyan,
held last evening at Science hall,
Fred G. Hatch, OF Aipena Won first
honors, speaking on The Futility of
War Clinton Anderson, of this city
was awarded second place.
Many interesting phases dealing
With world peace we're presented in
the orations of the five contestants.
The address OF the first speaker,
Clinton Anderson, was entitled
Peace by Friendship or Peace by
War" He showed that the present
peace existing among the world is
one of fear and for that reason can
not endure long. The peace based up
on friendship is the ideal which must
be sought Tor.
Carroll Thompson. of Platte, spoke
on Peace or Poverty" Wlr is pop
ular today. he advanced. lecause of
the element OF heroism which always
has been associated with it and be-
aus of the sentiment favorable 10
war which continually is being arous-
ed and fostered by such agencies as
newspapers and men prominent in
the public eye. His plea was for arbi-
tration combined with a more in
tense patriotism.
The strength of the winning ora
ton was revealed in its thought and
composition rather than in its de-
livery The futility OF War" was
portrayed with forceful diclion n
true %oratorical expression, Mr. Hatch
presented as the logical solution OF
the peace problem OF modern nations
the universal development of the
spirit of brotherhood and coopera-
ton.
The fourth production on the pro-
gram was that of Mrs, Anna McClar-
mon, whose theme was America as
Peacemaker." She claimed that the
spirit OF the American people, re-
.sulting from their blood relationship
TO the nations OF the old world. is the
most important factor in gaining
world peace. To the United States is
given tho privilege OF leading the
way.
Harry Nash was the final speaker,
his words dwelling upon The Path
of Peace War N was necessary
he said, land served to prepare the
way for peace but now its day is
owe Arbitration has proved itself a
success. Universal peace is newt
able"
A piano solo by Miss Marjorie Ford
preceded the program OF orations.
Guy Morse sang at the conclusion.
The judges OF the contest were
Professor George Allen, of Mitchell
High School. Judge w. NJ. Herbert,
and Judge James Brown of Chamber
lain. Their markings indicated a close
race for first honors, Mr.. Hatch re-
ceiving Two firsts and a second
and Mr.. Anderson receiving one first
and two seconds Mr.. Hasch will rep
resent Dakota Wesleyon in the state
contest here in April. g
The winner on that occasion will
be awarded a cash prize of sT5 and
the honor OF appearing in the inter-
state contest in May. 1t is considered
that Dakota Wesleyan has an excel
lent chance of repeating the success
of last year, when Walter Sherman
won in the state program and gained
second place at st. Louis in the in
teista4e contest. Mr.. Hatch has APP
peared on the II 1orical platform be-
fore, having won The local prohibi-
ton contest three years ago. He
