AMERICAN RED CROSS ROLL
CALL
President Harding Sends Greetings

Notice below greetings from Presi-
dent Harding to our National Red
Cross Convention. As president Of
this organization he is looking to it
to render efficient service and give re
lief in the appalling situation that has
arisen in the Near East. Red Cross
forces are already at this gigantic
task. Literally millions Of dollars are
required to save hundreds of thou
sands from quick starvation AMI
death.
Our great National Red Cross must
not fail to perform the tasks commit
ted to it and looked to as our repre-
sentative, but its success depends on
the local chapters of which it is made
up. Let us remember this and do
our part now and all during the Roll
Call.
The Annual Roll-Call begins this
year as usual Nov. 18th, Armistice
day, and extends thru Thanksgiving.
May we face our tasks and be loyal.
In our own land last year we had n
disasters of such dimensions that our
National Red Cross was called on for
relief to the amount of s1,441 ,4s6. We
must be prepared for disasters for
another year and combine with that
this overseas work and you can read
lily see our tasks are larger than since
we were inthe midst Of the World war.

LIVE MAN IN HeARSE
Driver OF the Conveyance Heard
STRANGE Cries From Within.


Strange Cries From Within.
Visions of spooks entered the mind
OF hearse driver AT Salem. ore.
when he heard the cries OF man ap-
parently echoing from within the
closed carrier. Al the time of the
strange occurrence, the driver was
on his way TO the country TO answer
a death call The driver at first
thought he was the victim OF q hal
luciation. but as the cries continued
he decided TO investigate.
Leaving his seat the driver rushed
10 the rear Of the hearse and opened
the door. Out jumped a man. and ex-
plantations followed. The man said he
had been assigned TO make some re-
pairs. and had been given no notice
thut the hearse was TO leave the
garage. The rear door was slammed,
and the workman was temporarily
imprisoned.
The roar Of the engine drowned out
the mans cries. and the bearse was
several miles from the city before he
could attract the attention Of the
driver.

LETTER FROM RICHLAND. ORE.

November I, 1922
Dear Berea Friends:
Since there are so many to whom
| owe an account Of myself, I have
chosen this means Of communication
with you. II would be quite a TASK
and would take some time to write
each Of you personally, as I would be
glad TO do. were il best for me. So
just please consider this a personal
letter.
As many Of you know, left Berea,
Monday, October is, on the evening
train, and arrived here the following
Friday afternoon. I made the trip
safely and was not so tired from u
but that am feeling well as usual
at present.

was sandy deserts covered with Sage
brush" There were so many SAM
hills, too. Had we not crossed the
Rockies during the night there would
have been some scenery for us.
Well, life here is quite a bit the
same as there, oftentimes, but IL we
have learned to adjust ourselves to
surroundings and meet things brave
ly, well come out right anyway.
Richland is small town-very
quiet, and certainly like that par.
of it. There is very little passing
on our street. There are three
churches in town, Christian, Metho-
dist. and Nazarine; a public and high
school, four general stores, drug
store. two meat markets, a bank,
telephone exchange. two garages, a
blacksmith shop, livery stable, two
stage lines, a hotel, etc.
The county for few miles along
here is known as Eagle Valley II
looks quite prosperous, especially
when compared with the miles and
miles and acres and acres of unpro-
ductive country one passes thru be-
fore arriving here.
Right here I'll mention the states
thru which we came-part Of Ken
lucky, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa,
Nebraska, Wyoming, Idaho and a
little bit of Oregon.
Foothills and mountains surround
US. 1t is jest fifteen miles to the
mountains where Mr. Bruce Mcdowell
has his sawmil and is working.
They will have to stop working
soon, for the weather has begun to be
up there, snowy and
blowy.
The winters here are longer, but
not much colder than they are in
Kentucky, so I've been informed. 4
can tell more about it after I shall
have experienced one, no doubt.

Mr.. and Mrs. Bruce McDowell's home.
and I certainly have never felt more
welcome anywhere outside my own
home. II is great to have friends
wherever one goes.
There are a number of McDowel!s
here, over fifty including grand-chil
dren. The older ones are from Pu-
laski county, Ky.
My letter is becoming too long, l
fear, so I shall soon bring it to
close; but before doing so I want -
remind you who so lovingly and lib
orally assisted me in coming out
here, that shall never forget. and
from the depths Of my heart I thank

CONTROLLED ATHLETICS AND
ITS RESULTS

Under proper control athletics hav,
a very important part to play in H.,
training Of our young college mer
and women. Sterling qualities Of
character are developed on the ath-
letic field in such way as no other
thing in college life can do. Many
lessons that are a valuable part Of a
college mans preparation for life can
better and more easily be learned on
the athletic field than anywhere else
Give us men Of integrity, God-fearing
men who will uphold the standards OF
the highest ideals in life as coaches
Of our young men.
What are some of the lessons OF life
that may be learned on the athletic
field? The sacrifice Of self to a
group or an institution or the attain
ment of a common goal is one Of the
first lessons taught. This is the es-
sence of democracy. What course in
college curriculum can teach us to
become better citizens Of our coun
try? Cooperation, teamwork, loyalty
and service are manifested bringing
out what is best in young man.
The qualities of determination, will
power, persistence, and courage, both
physical and oral, can nowhere be
better learned than on the athletic
field. How we long to see men Of
great physical and moral courage.
We need such men in this day
and time in the government, in the
pulpit, in business and every walk Of
life that is honorable.
The ability to summon all of ones
force, physical, mental and moral, to
work together in smooth coordination
for the accomplishment Of a given
task, and the initiative to direct
these forces, are striking attributes.
These qualities were especially shown
by some Of the men in the football
games of Monday, October 80.
Self-confdence, self-oontrol, poise,
aggressiveness-these quail.
titles and many more are brought out
by athletics. Can anyone doubt the
great possible good to be attained by
our college activities in athletics?
Are the spectators benefited by at
tending the athletic events Of a col
lege? Yes, in many ways. BY the
examples set by the men participant.
ing. This tends to hold in higher es-
TEEN the qualities of determination,
service, loyalty and many Of the other
characteristics shown in a game, and
which are fostered by athletic COM
petition.
The bringing together of the entire
student body and the focusing Of the
attention Of every individual on one
particular object has its benefits that
cannot be measured because of the
intangibility of its value.

Unfortunate Experiences of Other
Grand Opera Stars When Welded

These letters did not make much OF q hit with
Nine. Schumann-Heink when she saw them. The
contralto brought suit for divorce. Wrathful Mr..
Rapp brought counter suit and accused the singer Of
being in love with young policeman. In court Nine.
Schumann-IIeink produced letters from her husband
to Mrs. Dean and other testimony of misconduct She
also showed letter from Rapp to herself in which
he very kindly outlined ways by which she the
singer might obtain uncontested divorce from him.
OF course at price.
To cap the climax, Rapp limited that there was
some terrible secret in the life Of the prima DONNA
which he hoped he wouldn't have to divulge. The
contato Indignantly denied this dastardy asperson
She told how her life an open book.
81 don't even pull down my first floor shades" she
was quoted as saying Anybody who wants to
peep in and see me eating soup or washing clothes"
Then Mr.. Rapp showed morbid desire to rake up
madames past before he married her. but the court
ruled against It. Nine, Schumann-Heink was given
her divorce, and her third husband was given the
pleasure Of paying the costs Of the suit Her third
divorce came the day the birth Of her seventh
grandchild!
We have seen that Matzenauer and Schumann-
Heink tried three husbands apiece with luck, and
to go back in history bit we find that the famous
Patti had her try at three When she was young she
had an elderly rake the Marquis de Caux for hus-
band; when In her middle years she had Ernest Nico
lini an Italian tenor more her age; and when get
ting on to sixty she chose Baron Rolf Cederstrom, a
Swede, young enough to be her son. for her mate.
According to Patt"n her suit for separation from
the Marquis de Caux, he treated her like chattel,
took possession of all her earnings and abused her.
Cursed be the day that ever married a strollng
actress like your he would cry. 81 picked you out Of
the gutter and gave you honor and position in the
word!'
When Patti argued with him for some Of the
money she had earned that she might buy clothes he
would roar: "You sing and I'll do the rest"
In short the marquis looked upon the diva
gold mine for him to- work. He denied her accusa-
tons and brought counter suit They always do. He
