Morgan County Democrat. (McConnelsville, Ohio) 1886-1943, 1922-02-09

ing. Chapel was opened by the
singing of "Alma Mater" Mr.. Fulks
then read to us from book which
told how we all can have much
more than we have today. The peo-
lple of America are working at 20
per cent efficiency. Many students
who do not put enough time on their
studies are 20 per cent efficient.
We should all try to be as near 100
per cent as possible. In order to
benefit ourselves we must first
benefit others. There is a great
deal of value In service. Manual
labor is necessary. Also competition
and cooperation are very essential.
Every one should beware and not
let weeds grow in his brain instead
of the good things. Every individu-
al should be hunting for something
he really should read. Many people
do not even read daily paper, and
how can we expect to get along if
we do not keep up with the times?
The reason that man does not live
longer Is not because Of care but be-
cause he fails to cooperate and
help the other fellow. These be-
sides other good points were de-
!veloped and emphasized by Mr..
Fulks.
The following have been absent
from school part of the week on ac-
count of illness: Elizabeth Gillespie,
Margaret Fitch and Melford Peck.
Between semesters, Hamline Bish-
op, of o. U. was visitor in McCon-
nelsville. He is taking the manual

will contend with another Fresh
man and aSophomore on whether or
not the modern moving pictures are
detriment or not. Guy Finley and
Helen Button will speak in favor of
the movies, while George Ritchey

arrangement in M. & M. debating
annals.

Faculty-SeniOr Game
The Faculty team again turned
down the Seniors with the figures
standing 27-19. Although the Sen
iors put up better fight than on
their former appearance they were
outclassed slightly by their op-
ponents. The game never lacked
interest from the time referee Deed
rick called it until the final whistle.
Although the Faculty possessed a
comfortable margin at the end the
question of the winner was not set
tied until that time. Fulks was
high man for the Faculty and play
ed up to his usual form. He Sc
cured Is points of his teams total,
and displayed skill in all phases of
the game. Wells and Mccall also
were bright spots of the contest.
Davis showed considerable speed in
the second half. The game was we'll
