THE RIGHT SPIRIT.

More towns die for want OF conf
dence on the part of business men and
lack of spirit than from the rivalry of
towns or adverse sur
roundings This is true. When a
man in search of home or a bust
ness location goes to a town and finds
It's people brimfull of hope and en-
thusiasm over the prospects of the
place and earnestly at work to build
up the town, he soon becomes imbued
with the same spirit, and as result
ne drives his stakes and goes to work
with the same interest. When, how
ever, he goes TO a town and every
body expresses a doubt and apprehen-
sion Of prosperity of the place, moving
about and indulging in mournful COM
plants about imaginary evils which
are likely TO befall the town, he feels
that it is no place for him and shakes
the dust from his feet, while he de-
parts with all possible speed for some
other town. Try and make a live, en-
terprising, progressing town out of
the one in which you live. When you
are working for or saying good
thing for the town you are accomp-
fishing a good thing for yourself.

DID THE MAIL ORDER
MAN HELP YOU?

Who sympathized with you when
your little girl was sick-was it Sears
& Roebuck? Who carried you last
winter when you were out of a job
and had no money-was it Mont
gomery & Ward or was it your home
merchant?
When you want TO raise money for
the church or some needy person IN
town, do you write to The Fair Store
in Chicago-or do you go to your
home merchant?
How much does John Wanamaker
give toward keeping up sidewalks or
paying the ministers salary?
When you were sick, how many
nights did Hibbard-Spencer- Bartlett

you? When your loved one was bur-
led. was it your home merchant who
cropped the tear of sympathy and
uttered the cheering word-or was
Marshall Field & Co.?

SEED CORN TO BE SCARCE.

amount of seed available.
THE seems TO be general dearth

Prof. Shoesmith. I'VE are not inclined
to be alarmists, but unless we locate
all that is available, we are going to
be up against it for 1916. We are en-

pHIl0MATHEAN BANQUET
Initiation Banquet Given in Honor OF
Nine New Members Friday
Evening.

On Friday evening the Philo-
matean society gave its annual lnitia-
ton Banquet to the nine new girls
who were taken in at the last
meeting. The tables were artistically
decorated in yellow and white chrys-
anthaumns and the mellow light of
many candles gave a beautiful effect
to all The menu was daintily served
by several Of the Froebel girls and
was Of its usual elaborateness After
the last course had been finished Miss
Otha McCracken as a charming toast
mistress introduced each speaker in
her usual bright and witty manner
Miss Marcia Carl responded to the
Philomathean toast Of "Welcome" and
although she did not tell funny story
she fully conveyed the sentiment of
the society in the hearty greeting
which she gave to guests and new
members. Miss Rowena Rose re-
sponded TO the toast New Ties" in be-
half of the Freshmen and proved that
she had already entered into the spirit
Of Phiomathean Sisterhood and that
we can expect much from our new
members in the future.
A toast TO Alma our college was
given by Mrs Randels in which she
brought out the idea of loyalty on the
part of both students and faculty and
the cooperation of all branches of
college life. The singing of the col
lege song was very appropriate at this
time.
Miss Blanch Healy favored us with
several well rendered solos which
showed she is gaining much from her
study at the University Of Michigan
"reminiscences" was responded to by
Miss Ruth Robbins 10 She told many
of the interesting events connected
with Philo's past history and showed
us how interested our alumnae are in
our welfare and that they still are
Alma boosters.
Our Ideals" given by Gladys Der
shem 10 gave all present that for
which Philo stands and admonished US
that we must all strive to live up to
the high ideals which our older sisters
have set up for US.
Altogether it was a wonderful ban

able evening. Nine old Philomathean
girls were present. Those in atten-

SMILES AND SNEERS

A sheer never brought better than
a KICK to anybody.
Jack Johnson sneered at those he
defeated, and at others, and the whole
world is glad Willard licked him.
If Willard has the good sense to
keep smiling. and smiling, and smil-
ing, the whole world, black and white,
will be glad when he wins other vic
tories, and will be sorry for him on
that day when some scrapper lays him
low with a whack in the solar plexus
or a punch to the jaw.
Napoleon sneered-and died at st.
Helena.
Quick witted France learned that
the Napoleonic stuff was no good. and
today when she is fighting hard, and
smiling and being polite, everybody
even the GERMANS-praise France.
Absolutely no good comes from the
sheer.
The curled lip invites punch in
the nose.
The naughty, overbearing, bullying
sneering, conceited, supercilious man
or woman or nation stands to be TAX
en- down a peg sooner or later.
Look at the faces you see when you
go TO work tomorrow morning. See
which invite friendship and confidence
and help, and which invite scrap.
See if the first sentence in this little
editorial isn't true Lansing State
journal.

HlLOMATHEANS THE GUESTS
OF PHI PHI ALPHA.

Last Saturday night the Philo-
matheans were royalty entertained by
the Phi Phi Alphas The society room
was prettily decorated with pennants
and banners and the atmosphere of
welcome was dominant throughout the
evening. All were ready for a good
time and joined in the entertainment
with the kind of spirit that gave
pleasure to guests and hosts alike. In
the first game one noticed that num-
Der twenty prepered the end of the
line; a few were penny wise" and
others were penny foolish. Mr.. Fulch-
er brought about marvellous trans
formation by going out of the room
with two legs and coming back with
six. -Four relay teams were chosen,
two varsity and two scrubs; after
some practice and shortening of lines,
cheers were given for Miss Battles
victorious scrubs. Everyone enjoyed
listening to Miss Healy who sang two
beautiful selections and an amusing
enchore.
Partners were chosen for the Vir-
ginia Reel and refreshments by
matching clever little Phi pennants.
Delicious coffee and doughnuts were
served, followed by strawberry ice
cream and cake. Ten-thirty came all
10 soon and the "Philos" reluctantly
went home feeling that they had added
another to their list of never-to-be-
forgotten evenings with Phi Phi Alpha.

HIS FIRST CIGAR.

He was only Freshman, still he
knew
The right from the wrong and the
thing TO do,
Said he to "Brud" "the rules are a
joke
| think I'll enjoy little smoke"
He pulled and pulled at big cigar.
His eyes bulged out and his cheeks
sank in;
He gulped rank fumes with his lips
ajar,
While muscles shook in his youthful
chin.
His gills were green, but he stole
smile
And assured his teammates he would
be we'll in while
The earth swan round, but the car
stood still,
The trees rose up and the freshie
fell down,
He groaned aloud, for he felt so ill,
And knew that cigar had made him
feel
Like fly that was drowning in a
dish of oatmeal.
His head was light, and his feet like
lead,
His cheeks grew white as linen
spread,
While he weakly gasped as he gazed
afar,
"If | live, this here's my last cigar"

4 CONTEMPTIBLE METHOD.

Every once in a while a country
publisher will receive one of those
manila post cards in use at postoffices
that notifies him that subscriber has
removed to-" "removed-left no ad-
Dress" mot found" refused" or "un-
claimed" No frequently the mark
placed by the postmaster is in front
of the word refused, and when the
publisher looks up the name of the
subscriber on the mailing list, the
chances are ten to one that subscriber
is i'm arrears. IL is most contempt
ible way of repudiatng a debt, and
the man who resorts TO this means
to beat the printer is guilty of petit
larceny. OF course under the law
the publisher could collect the debt
through legal process, but few pub
fishers care to go to that trouble,
prefering to stand the loss. If news
paper men would combine and publish
the names Of subscribers who follow
this practice it might have a salutary
effect in eliminating the evil. Few
publishers have any desire to force
their paper upon any individual, and
a notification to discontinue a paper
will, as a rule, be promptly complied
with. The publisher makes no pro-
test against the cancellation of sub
scription, all he asks is fair treat
ment and payment for the goods he
has delivered.
