Lawrence Mems Elee Club.

Lawrence Mems Glee Club fully
met our high expectations and gave
fine musical treats in the Municipal
theatre on Saturday evening; and in
the Congregational and Methodist
churches on Sunday Especially
must be mentioned the very excel
lent program of sacred song, given
by the entire club in the almost over
crowded Auditorium of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church on Sunday
night.
There were thirty-six men in the
company and they have met with
nothing but success on their tour.
Lawrence is a great school and MAX
ing good in every way.
To have stood forth as the leading
College Glee Club in the middle west
for twenty-five years is a reputation
well worth upholding. Yet this is
the distinction the Lawrence College
Mems Glee Club has earned for itself
in that time. Few college Glee Clubs
can boast of so fine set of soloists
as can this years club. Max Schuldt
is pianist of rare ability, his versa
tility being higly recommended by
critics.
Mineral Point was indeed FORUM
ate in being placed on the itinary of
this very worth while organization.

Washington. July 16.-There will be
a. great collection of golf sticks on the
Columbia Country club green Tuesday
when play begins for the American
open championship. Since two million
people in the world are said to be

are said to own from ten to sixteen
million of them. the American Forestry

from and what goes into them.

of lumber are used in the United States

this. many other things use more than
they. but 1t is probable that no other

Ralph Ritter and Frank Altman.
The meeting was opened by all scouts
standing and repeating the scout oath.
We now have one more tenderfoot
scout that passed his test. This boy
is Russell Wright.
The re-registration was discussed and
also the tickets. The Pinetree patrol
could not have the contest in knot ty-
ing. but the Beavers had the signalling
contest with the Flying Eagles. IT sure
was a hot contest. The Beavers were
thru signalling first, hut counting
everything together it was tie.
We had an observation contest be-
tween patrols and the Beavers won by
seven articles The scouts played a
game something like Swat the Kaiser
by calling out a compass point and
then hitting the scout until he got back
in his place. The game aroused a great
deal of interest.
Remember the meeting next week
and all scouts he present.
