first award given to Miss Oma

senior in the Elizabethtown High
School. and the second award was
given to X. o. Garden. senior in the
Berea Academy, Berea, Kentucky,
and third award was given to Andrew
Howard Of the Greenburg High
School. There were 1lS essays sub
mitted to the University of Ken
lucky from rs High Schools and Acad-
emies. IL is estimated that 5000
high school boys and girls took part
in the contest. The University of
Kentucky awarded the gold medal to
Miss Oma Franklin of the Elizabeth
town High School, and has sent the
three best essays to the Highway
Transportation Committee, Willard
Building, Washington, ID. c. to be
considered in the National Contest.
The fact that the committee for
Kentucky has made the award to
Miss Franklin does not interfere
with the other two essays being
considered for first prize in the en-
tire country. In fact it is possible
that another committee will look at
these essays differently and rank the
second or third above the first.
Oscar Garden Of the Academy,
whose home is in Ek Park. n. c.,
should feel complimented upon re-
ceiving such a high place in this
contest, and who knows but that he
will carry off the national honors.
These Good Roads Essay Contests
are of great value to the students in
concentrating their attention upon
one of the great needs Of the noun
tain section.
Hurrah for Oscar!

JAMES NJ. RACER

On the eve Of the meeting Of the
Alumni Association, when all were
rejoicing in the expectation of meet
ing former friends and classmates,
our hearts are saddened by a mes
sage from the far South bearing the
news of the death of our beloved
friend, James Milton Racer.
Mr.. Racer was born at New Mar
tensburg. Ohio, January Z, 1872, died
in Florida, June 9, 1922. He came to
Berea the fall of 1898. True to his
character and habits, Mr.. Racer not
only entered upon his college work
with vim and determination, but also
entered community and church work
as well. He was a faithful teacher
and worker in the Baptist Sunday
school and church during his entire
stay in Berea.
Mr.. Racers pleasant smile pierced
the heart of one of his classmates,
Miss Myrtle Burr, and in 1902 they
were united as one.
Even before he received his ABB.
degree in 1908, he was acting as ed
itor and publisher of The Citizen,
which position he gave up to enter
Harvard, from which he received his
Masters degree in 1904. After leav-
ing school he made his home in Cleve-
land, Ohio, where he Immediately en-
tered his chosen profession, that of
salesman. There, as at Berea, he
entered with enthusiasm into the
Sunday-school and church work.
1t was thru his efforts that the
Northwestern Ohio Berea Association
was organized, and he and his good
wife were the hosts at many meet
ings of the association.
Not like many of Berea's gradu-
ates, Mr.. Racer was not lost in the

The first session Of the Berea Sum-
mer School of Religious Education
will be conducted by the Kentucky
Sunday School Association at Berea
College, Berea, KY, June 90 30 July
o, 1929.
II is doubtful il more ideal To-
cation could be found IN the country
for a Summer School than Berea,
lying at the gateway Of the Cum
berlands, and presenting an alluring
view of the glorious northward
sweep of Kentucky Blue Grass. The
region with the blue grass on one
side and the hills on the other, offers
walks, horseback rides and drives
of unsurpassed charm, variety and
historic and romantic interest.
The Summer School of Religious
Education is now an established in
stitution, the most effective means
Of instruction and training for the
great army of Sunday School officers
and teachers. Here, during ten
days of intensive study under the
direction of splendid teachers, Sun
day School workers get not only a
new vision of the Importance and
significance of their work, but they
learn how to know their pupils, and
to handle their material in such a
way as to vastly improve their skill
and effectiveness. The forenoons
are devoted to class work, and the
afternoons to study and recreation.
Cost.-In addition to railroad fare
the cost will be, board $3.50 and
tuition $3.50. Many churches have
found it a most profitable invest
ment to pay all or part of the ex-
penses of a selected group of work
ers at the Summer School.

Wellesley Hills, Mass. Nov. Ain
the interview this week with Roger
w. Babson, the question of what
effect the Congressional elections will
have upon business, brought from him
the following statement:
81 see one interesting issue in the
Congressional elections, namely, the
number of new radical members sent
to Congress. Those of us In the East
do not understand the viewpoint of
our western people, hence few are
awake TO the great change which is
coming about in our political line up.
Throughout the present generation,
the contest has been between the Re-
publicans and Democrats. The days
of this alignment, however, are num-
bered. Both of the old parties have
suffered extensive changes. At least
by 1929, and perhaps in 1924, a real
contest may be waged between the So
called Conservatives on the one side.
and the so-called Radicals on the
other.
by Radical / do not refer to the
l. w. VS. or any group commonly
known as Bolshevists. The new
Radical party will be moro like the
Bull Moose party OF 1916. The Con-
sentative group will represent COM
blnation of both Republicans and
Democrats who are opposed TO the
extreme measures OF the other group.
The elections tomorrow will serve 10
show TO what extent this new align
ment is taking shape.
'As to the immediate effects of the
elections they should not be import
ant unless the Republican majority
in Congress should be overthrown. !
do not, however, expect such an
event.
