BASEBALL AT WOODBURY.
South jerseys Greatest Rivals
TO Meet on West End Field

Immediately following the firemen's
parade on Saturday afternoon, October
30, one of the big events of Woodbury's
annual Halloween celebration, Swedes-
boro A. A. will meet the 1915 Tri-Coun-
ty champions, West End of Woodbury.,
on the latter's grounds, Morris and
Logan streets. Great rivalry exists
between these two teams and they are
both out for blood, to win this final
game of the season. Each team has an
enviable record, which is thus far,
Swedesboro played 81, won 20. West
End played Al, won 81, one tie.
Swedesboro will strengthen their team
with several big Leaguers, including
players from the Phillies, Athletics and
Chicago Americans. West End will
rely on their regulars, using Bayer, or
Dopson and Fitzgerald as battery.
The West End team needs no introduce
ton to the local fans, having played
here for the past two seasons. This
game will be n of the greatest ever
staged on the West End field and
arrangements have been made to &C.
commodate a large crowd.

A BIG SUCCESS
THIS "sEDTSON Day.
BUSINESS AND

we want to thank our many friends who sent in their guesses as to
the watts in lamps we sold. We particularly want to thank those
who did not win and trust they will try again next year. We sold
500 lamps, and the lucky number was 90 900 watts.
First Prize-Mr. Frank Becker - 10000
Second Prize-Mr. Herbert Nunevl1er $4,000
Third Prize-Mrs. I. Filler 1880
We regret that regular lamp prices will have to be maintained
hereafter. But still you will get the same grade of lamp, the lamp
that bears the name of that cline old genius" and inventor,
Thomas Edison, probably the most brilliant worker of our age.
But speaking further of lamps brings to mind the question: 'Do
yn know that electric light can be turned down F'-wen it can,
and a 'DIMILITE' does the trick; SO come in and let us show
you the trick.

she, too, might be able to lay aside
her many invitations, her motor cars

happiness in work among her less for

frey's last letter, when he told his
young correspondent that he had done
with letter writing and must see her
at once. Plainly it was not letter of
advice.

OLD-TIME COMMANDMENTS
Scheme of Exercises Included Many Ora
tions---Oyster Dinner Once Served on
the Presidents Lawn.

years clerk of the Boone County
Circuit Court, cashier Of the Exchange
National Bank of Columbia and sec
retary Of the Board of Curators. The
other, Robert B., was for many years
a circuit judge in Louisiana.
The following year there were
three graduates and the scheme was
unusually interesting because a trav-
cling orchestra happened to be il
town and was engaged for the Oc-
casion." This was also the year that
the baccalaureate address was dis
pensed with because the president
had no time to deliver it.
Oyster Dinner Feature.
At the fifth annual commencement
the University had grown so large
that it took the form of an all-day
session with a recess at o'clock.
This was the year that an oyster din
ner was served on the presidents
lawn.
From this time the senior class be-
comes steadily larger, plucked occas
ionally of member whose southern
blood could not stand rebuke and
compelled him to cane a tutor i'm re-
taliatiOn, or. as on one occasion, of a
member who exploded a firecracker
in the Christian Church. The per-
petrator of this crime was instantly
suspended and because he stayed in
town "inciting riots and revolts
among the students" he was finally
expelled entirely.
In 1861 although the capture of
Camp Jackson by Captain Lyon the
week previous, and other military
maneuvers ominous of a bloody civil
war greatly excited the community
and were topics on every tongue, a
very large audience filled the chapel
to hear DR.. John Lathrop give an ap-
propriate, chaste and scholarly ad-
dress, and deliver diplomas to large
class of graduates.
In March, 1862, the Board of Gu
rators met and closed the University
and discontinued the faculty, and this
year at commencement time Federal
troops occupied the main edifice and
camp fires lighted the campus at
night.

The House of the Misty Star.

1t should be sufficient commenda-
ton to say this book. "The House oi
the Misty Star" is worthy successor
of the authors earlier work. "The
Lady of the Decoration"
In "the house of the misty star
lives Miss Jenkins. an American mis-
sionary whose thirty years toiling
and teaching have made her "step-
mother-in-law" to half the waits and
strays of the Orient, without dulling
her sense of humor. And to the
beauty of the little house and its won
derful old garden, drift, for one cause
or another: James Gray, herself a
waif, hopelessly impractical and ro-
mantle, but with a faith which builds
hospital and changes the criminal
record of city.

August First,

In the cataloguer's list, August
First" recently published, the work
of Mary Raymond Shipman Andrews
and Roy Irving Murray would be
classified as a clergyman's romance,
says the Kansas City Star. 1t is more
than that With its story of love and
happiness, even in the shadow of a
great disaster, August First" tells
how a society woman, whose interest
In life was fast becoming deadened,
found strength and reason to live in
performing good works for others.
They form pretty story-these let
ters of Miss August First" to her
clergyman in the crowded city. When
Hope Stuart, Miss August First, "
first called on the young assistant
clergyman, Godfrey McBirney, she
was contemplating suicide. She had
come to inquire of him whether or not
there was eternal punishment for
those who take their own lives. When
she left the little parish house she
had promised the young minister that
she would be advised through his let
ters as to what course to pursue in
life.
Letters of advice, many of them,
telling of Geoffrey's work in the
slums, came to the girl at her uncle's
home, where she was making a tenn
porary home. Through McBirney's
stories of his work in the congested
tenements she found cause for his
eontentment in life and began to won
der, and to plan. for the time when
