NORTHLAND RAISED BUT CATCHES AFIRE
 AND FILLED AGAIN

The officers of the City of Seattle which arrived from the South last night and which called at Rake northbound, report that the salvage company has been successful in rais- ing the steamer Northland and that they are now engaged in pumping the water out of the boat.
 The Northland was raised sever al days ago, but when nearly free of water one of the workmen en- tered the boat and the lantern car ried by him caused an explosion of gas which had gathered in one of the rooms from the crude oil which covered the entire inside of the boat.
 The wreckers were forced to again fill the salyaged boat with water to extinguish the fire. Sev- eral men were slightly hurt, but none of them received serious burns. At the present time the Northland is nearly free from water and is being supported by large pontoons near the dock at Rake.

PHI DELTA LIVES

The fact that Phi Delta is not dead
yet by great deal was demonstrated
Saturday night. An excellent adj
dress by Mr.. Cook and an extraOrdi-
narily humorous reading by Mr..
Martin formed the nucleus Of the
program. Despite the decimating
caused by the war and the food sit
uatiOn, Phi Delta's programs still
possess the same old literary excel
lence for which she has long been
famous. The Society is planning to
hold its regular meeting until Com
mencement. regardless of the scar
city of members. The remaining
ones are making strong plans not
only for the remainder of the year
but for next year as well. The So
ciety is glad TO know that OF its
members who have left, five have
entered the Onlcers' Training Camp
and others have gone to helpful vo-
cations.

The Call TO the Colors" issued by
President Wilson at the outbreak Of
the war with Germany has consid-
crably depleted the ranks Of the
Academy Department. The boys
have been responding promptly and
enthusiastically to the summons.

The department regrets the loss
Of these men from among our num-
bers. We can congratulate our
selves. however. that the boys OF
Berea are not rushing blindly into
something that they know nothing
about. Thanks To John Miller, who
has seen six years Of service in the

listed know something Of the truth

animates them is not, and will not
bc, mere desire % gain public no
tice: but rather a sincere. whole
hearted Christian patriotism. Their
experience at Berea, moreover, pre-
pared them in some measure to
meet and resist successfully the
dangers and temptations OF army
life in camp and field.

JU-s0PH0 CHAUTAUQUA

The program given in Utile Dulce
Saturday was a representation Of one
Of the greatest educational move
ments of the day. The Juniors and
Sophomores ofthe Society had charge
and nearly every phase of the Chau-
tauqua work was presented. As
manager, Eunice Pearson gave an in
troductory address in which she
told Of the movement and introduce
ed the phases Of work presented in
the program. The orchestra, con-
sisting of Sue Holiday, director,
Elsie A1enhGfcr, Mac Todd. Mil
dred Hudson, Helen Tuttle, Vera
Schott and Lille Ogg, using very
unusual and unique instruments,
rendered several patriotic and ia
miliar selections. Thrift" was the
subject of the lecture given by
Lille Ogg in which she gave some
startling evidence Of our lack Of
thrift, as a nation and showed that
if we would keep pace with the rest
OF the world. we must be up and
DOING Music is always an impor-
tant feature in Chautauqua enter
tainments: Mildred Hudson and
Helen Tuttle gave some beautiful
piano duets and Elsie Atzenh9fer
entertained surprised audience
with cornet solos. Sue Holiday
was the reader of the evening and
gave a humorous selection entitled
Home Sweet Home" No such pro-
gram is complete without chill
dren's hour. Mae Todd performed
magical stunts and as a closing
number, Eunice Pearson related in
simple manner, characteristic Of a
good story teller, "Epaminondas."
As a treat for close attention, stick
candy was served.
