The Debate Was q Great Success
And Much Enthusiasm Prevailed
Throughout.
In the annual contest between A. q
NJ. ard Ole Miss debating teams held
il Chapel Friday p. M, April zSrd,
Ole Mss ,debaters defeated the team
from A. & M. and received unan-
in,ous decision from the judges OF the
contest.
The subject Of the debate was: Re-
solved: That compulsory education
should obtain throughout Mississippi,
under certain conditions, (Which were
enumerated).
Messrs. james T. Crawley of Kos
.iusko and Taylor H. McElroy OF
burgess, Mss, in masterful man.
ner mt the affirmative side Of the
question forward in such way that
the judges md the audience could not
resist, and time after time the speak
ers were interrupted by bursts of ap-
plause. Mr.. Crawley opened the de-
bate for Ole Miss by jumping into the
heart Of the subject, dismissing as ne
went, the superficial and unnecessary
considerations which might have at
tracted the attention of less able
debater. When he had finished his
first speech, the audience felt that the
decision Of the debate would surely
coa,e tc Ole Miss.
The next speaker for the first for
the negative, Mr.. G. T. Sargent, who
in very pleasing manner and with
much force presented the first argu-
ment for the negative side of the
question.
After Mr.. Sargent had concluded,
MI. Taylor McElroy second speaker
for the affirmative, rebutted the ar
gun,ents of the first for the negative
and then fact upon fact, arranged
in the most logical order possible,
advanced and drove home many points
in support of his contention. The
audience followed him with approval.
After the applause had ceased the
second and last proponent of the neg
ative side of the issue by a very
praiseworthy effort would have saw
ed the day fer A, Il M. chad such
been possible) by arguments which
he presented.
Then Mr.. Crawley in rejoinder SO
successfully met the arguments ad-
vanced by the negative side that he
not only made of no avail the neg
ative argument, but made his own
argument fruitful for Ole Miss.
And thus the fruits of the day went
to Ole Miss.
The program committee and the au
dience present, wish to thank in the
name of Ole Miss, those who made
the occasion one of the more enjoy
ment, because of the beautiful
music.

 The other day he went in to see about his watch. The jeweler met him with an expression that told the sad news. The poor watch was defunct for good.
 What was the matter with it?" asked the young owner.
 Well, I just got an ant out Of it.'
 That's what made it stop. eh?"
 No. the ant had been making it go. but it died. That's why the watch stopped
