LITERARY SOCIETIES

Now that the years work Of the
literary societies is in full swing, a
great deal Of enthusiasm for this
type Of work is developing in the
Academy. Eight societies are operat-
ing-Adelphic, Beta Alpha, ri Sigma,
and Sigma Tau among the men, and
Aelioian, .Lenorian, Sororian and Vic
torian among the women. The mems
societies hold meetings in the Acad-
envy classrooms and the women's So
cieties in James Hall.
The spirit Of cooperation among all
the organizations is becoming more
pronounced. A number Of plans
have been suggested for promoting
the literary activities Of the school.
In the near future a chapel exercise
will be devoted to presenting the re-
quirements and advantages of mem
bership in literary societies. The
series of contests which have former
ly been held between the organiza-
tons in defamation, short story,
essay, and debate will probably be
repeated this year. II is hoped also
that a debate match with an outside
school can be arranged.

A. B. Strong is visiting around,
stirring up interest in the Scaffold
Cane school. He went to Richmond
Monday 10 make arrangements about
repainting the schoolhouse. The new
desks ordered for the school have Just
arrived, and the citizens Of the COM
munity are to meet TO fix them up.
The interest in Mr.. Strong's work at
Scaffold Cane is developing at lively
rate.
Misses Florence and Cleopatra

the Scaffold Cane school on Saturday
night to sing. The people of that
community were preparing for Sun

We enjoyed a treat Wednesday
morning in Chapel when Miss Flor

Last Thursday the Normal School
had its mountain day. Everybody
enjoyed the day very much. We were
like the soldiers who returned from
Eu-ope-we were tired, but we would
not take anything for our trip. Pro
fessor Lewis prepared the students
for mountain day by giving lectures
in Chapel Tuesday and Wednesday
mornings on the photography Of the
regions we were to visit. This helped
us to really see things on Thursday.

football almost every day now, get
ting ready for the series of games
which are to be played this fall.

SPORTS

The pleasant weather of the past
week has stimulated interest in the
fall sports. Football continues to &C.
cupy the center of the field. In spite
of the lack Of equipment and inabil-
ity to secure a regular practice time,
the Academy team is rounding into
shape. In an election by the men,
bers Of last years team Clyde Lewis
was chosen captain and Bates Hen
derson manager. Next Monday af-
ternoon the Academy team will meet
the College aggregation in the open
ing game of the season.
Other sports besides football are
attracting attention. Soccer is ex-
citing considerable interest. Although
the game is new TO most of the boys,
team will probably soon be organ
lied by Director Ross. Those who
are interested in cross-country run

MOUNTAIN DAY

After handing the Academy stu
dents a nice, rainy mountain day for
several years in succession, the
weather man at last provided day
for that occasion, which could not be
surpassed. Last Monday was suita-
bic for the big excursion in every re-
spect. The Pinnacles and Indian Fort
Mountain never appeared 10 better
advantage or entertained a lovelier
or happier bunch Of young people.
For those who desired il, transpor-
tation was provided by means Of the
College trucks. The parties which
started in the early part Of the morn
ing visited East Pinnacle and the
Fort before dinner and West Pinnacle
after dinner. Those which went later
in the morning reversed the program.
Neat lunches were served at noon
from World Afar Bungalow.
Parties were in charge Of Mr.. Cole
and Miss Hostetter, Miss Johns, Dean
Matheny, Prof. Peck, Mrs. Peck, Miss
Strong, Mr.. Waller and Dr. wetmore.
A large number Of boys went in
smaller groups. The party Of girls
which was in charge Of Dean Matheny
reported that they tried to get the
Dean lost. but that they found him
too good a geography student to fall
for their attempt.
The success of the occasion was
largely due to the careful arrange
ments which had been made by Prof.
Smith and Miss True, the Academy
Social Committee, and by the stu
dents who were assisting them.

out the thought that as students we
should strive to make this year one Of
the best we have ever spent and to
strengthen our purpose thru Chris
tan service, and quoted the following:

trust me:

I would be brave, for there is much

OCTOBER

The name October was derived from
the Latin word "octo," meaning eight.
II was the eighth month Of the
year at Rome, but became the 10th
when Numa changed the beginning
Of the year to the first Of January.
There were many attempts made
by the Roman Senate TO change the
name. From the time Of julius
Caesar IL has had thirty-one days.
Our national flower, the goldenrod,
comes in October, also the decorative
hop blossom and ehrysanthemum. In
country or woodland regions the
woods are gorgeous with crimson,
russell and gold. The song Of the bob
olink, the sigh Of the breeze, the
music Of the ripping brooks. and the
nodding flowers, as they shed their
sweet perfume to the flowing winds,
all lend enchantment to the month Of
October; and we, in such atmosphere,
should be truly happy.
Pears and apples are our main
fruits for canning in October, while
we have quite a number Of vegetables,
such as beans, tomatoes, corn and po-
tatoes.
The greatest event that has ever
happened in October was the dis
eovery Of America by Columbus in
1892 James Russell Lowell, John
Greeley and William Sherman were
chosen for Hall Of Fame in October,
1905.
The one hundred and fiftieth ami /.
versary Of Princeton College, New
Jersey, was celebrated October 20-22,
1896.
The twenty-sixth president Of the +
United States. Theodore Roosevelt, /
was born October, 1858; also Jenny !
Lind, the worlds greatest singer, died
in October, 1920.

FIRST SOCCER GAME
Lexington, Ky.

The first witnessed official soccer
game played in Berea College was
played by Foundation VS.. Vocational
on Monday, the 18th.
Many people who have never seen
the game before became greatly ex-
cited and enthused when they saw
how the lines advanced and retreated.
And everybody was very much
amused to see the little boys in Foun-
dation team carry the ball through
the field and make two goals and Vo-
cational not any.
Soccer is a game similar 10 foot
ball, only no one is allowed 10 touch
the ball with the hands. All carry
ing is done with the feet and shoul-
ders and the head can be used 10
bunt the ball. A clean man must be
speedy and also brainy, and he must
have control Of his feet and head.
The rules are few and simple, and
the game Is quickly learned: stars
can be created in a very brief space
Of time.
The official scheduled game will oc-
cur Monday, October 25, at 1880 p. m =,
and all are cordially invited to be on
the campus at this time. and a spe-
eial invitation is extended to those
who have never seen the game. You
will like IL.
