BALL TEAM FACES
STRENUOUS WEEK
FOUR GAMES WITH OREGON AND
w A HI n G TON UNIVERSITIES
CONSTITUTE CRUCIAL SERIES

The University of Idaho baseball
squad will go through it's most
strenuous session this week and the
first of next week, playing the Mon
tana Bruins this afternoon and Tues
day in a two game series, meeting
the University of Oregon sluggerS
Friday and Saturday afternoons, and
the University of Washington Huskies
the following Monday and Tuesday
afternoons The last four games are
expected to be the hardest fought
games on the home schedule of the
Vanda1s, as the Huskies are at pres
ent leading the conference and have
their eyes on the championship flag
The season so far has not turned
out to be as favorable as early ap-
pearanceS led sport followers to be-
lieve it would be, and injuries have
depleted the ranks of the squad of
some of the most valuable players.
The last to receive injuries which
will undoubtedly keep him on the
bench for the remainder OF the sea-
son was Ostrander, fielder and de-
pendable hitter, who suffered a
sprained ankle last week.
The Washington team is made up
almost entirely of veteran players,
who have had world of experience
in amateur ball. The Washington
squad last year took an extended trip
to the orient, where they played all
of the best amateur clubs. They
have a strong infield and string of
batters who can be depended upon
to keep any pitcher busy throughout
nine innings.
Idaho has probably solved one of
he knottiest problems with the piac-
ing of Luke" Guernello, diminuative
Filipino, back of the bat where he
performs nicely. He is a dependable
batter, and a flash on the bases, and
with a little experience should prove
a valuable man on the Idaho nine.
The coming series of games will
probably make it necessary for Idaho
to use most of her moundsmen, of
which she has several in the veteran
class. Snow has been doing good
work, as has Eddy and Fitzke, all
three of whom will likely see action
during the week.

BIG CROWD HEARS
annual SERVICE
BACCALAUREATE SERMON BY
PROF. c. w. CHENOWETH AT
TRACTS MANY

One of the largest crowds ever at
tending baccalaurete service in Mos
COW was in attendance at the univer-
sity auditorium last evening when
Professor C. w. Chenoweth, head of
the department of philosophy OF the
University of Idaho, gave the annual
sermon to the graduating class OF the
Moscow high school.
Professor Chenoweth chose for his
subject Man, the Creator" He
took his text from the first chapter
of Genesis, the first verse, And God
created the Heavens and the Earth, )"
Choose Own Environment
The theme of Prof. Chenoweth's
talk dealt with man as the creator
of his own environment in which he
lived his individual life, and empha-
sised the point that the world in which
each one of us lives is. of our own
choosing and will be just as we make
it.
Man lives in three worlds, the
speaker said. Those spheres in which
he lives and acts, and the manner in
which he moulds them were then de-
veloped by the speaker. They are
the physical world, which lis Gre
ated by the use of the individual in
tellect, and which is largely governed.
by the effort put forth by the in
dividual person. Second came the
social world, and closely allied with
it, the spiritual world, the most i'm
portant of all.
Hope and Faith
Hope and faith are the tools used
by man in creating his spiritual
world, and without both, the spiritual
side of man could not stand, Prof.
Chenoweth said.
Music was furnished by the high
school orchestra and the combined
choirs of the several Moscow churches,
under the direction of Miss Bernadine
Adair. The complete program of the
services as given last night is as fol-
lows:
Hymn" Worship the King"
Scripture reading
Prayer.
Anthem, by the choir" The Hea-
vens are Calling Hayden
Sermon, Man, the Creator" by
Prof. c. w. Chenoweth.

A. j.. MEyEs, OF SEATTLE.

A. J. Moves had decorated a book
keepers stool out in Portland, Ore,
and had tried his hand at the sales
manship game, when he conceived that
notion so prevalent in these Small
Romances-to get into some business
OF his own. From working for other
people he had built bank account
of 5000, and with this opened an eat
ing place in Portland, seating ten per-
sons and employing three helpers.
Moves figured that though men may
come and men may 60, eating goes on
forever-at least in the right sort of
restaurant.
When he locked the doors the first
night, seven one-dollar bills marked
the reward of that days labor. in
six months" he says, I'VE worked up
TO S135 day.
Il attribute the success of my early
place to n good philosophy" Moves
explains. Il told my employees TO
please the customers and not to mind
about me. i made my workers feel
they were part of the business, and
always paid good wages"
Let A. J. himself tell you the next
chapter. You can readily supply some
Of the facts from your own thinkery.
"Seven years ago / sold my business
in Portland" he says. "and imme-
diately started cafeteria in Seattle,
seating $50. The undertaking required
500, OO0-but had the money. Every
cent of it was made in the business
for l have never borrowed n dollar. "
Rather good for this ex-bookkeeper
who wanted to do something for him
self. And how many business men
are there who can say they never bor-
rowed? There is no crime-indeed
sometimes the rarest wisdom--in bor-
rowing; but surely it is an achieve
ment to be able to say what Moves
says.
"My brother, II. Il. Moves" he con-
tinueS, had been travelling dry
goods salesman in the middle west for
twenty years. He wanted a change,
and as it wasn't so long since l had
been in his shoes. i took him in as q
partner-a fine, jovial fellow, too.
ain 1921 we opened our new place
in Seattle, as a joint venture. We
had far outgrown the old one; our new
seating capacity was S00-eighty
times the size of the first little place
in Portland. We now have 81 en-
ployes and feed about $500 people a
day. The present annual business
amounts to $369,000. We surely have
n wonderful business, and most
beautiful place"
This story Of A. J. Moves brings
home to me the fact that history and
biography KEEP on repeating them
selves-and doubtless will for aeons.
Something under thirty years ago l
lived in Seattle and knew 4 young
fellow who started restaurant there
on $500. In two years he was worth
around $4,000; in five years, $50, 600.
Today he is interested in dozen Seat
tel enterprises. And in those thirty
years l have no doubt hundreds of
men in Seattle have done similar
things with restaurants and other VEN
lures. OF course other hundreds have
failed in their INTERCHANGEABLE
clearly there has been something wrong
with their methods or personality.
Why should one man succeed. while
another man fails utterly. at the same
thing?
Seattle thirty years ago had 10000
people: today, close to 100000. Is it
any wonder men succeed in this Amer
lea of ours, where brains can actually
read their owners future, il put 10

OF Fremont, Ohio.

1t is something of a feat 10 begin
business with an opulence of minus
$1,000 and make a fine success. but
this is the romance of John 5. Henry
of Fremont, Ohio, having 10000 in

With this handicap of debt anf
with no cash beyond little pocket
money. Mr.. Henry faced the dilemma
of starting anew when in the middle
forties. Years before he had begun as
a store clerk near Pittsburg, eventual

Serious illness kept him away fol
over six months, and business went
on the down grade There seemed
little chance that he would ever re-
turn to active management, and HI;
partner sold. Henry did recover, but
found himself without a business and
on the wrong side of the seven thou

He secured employment in large
Toledo store. but after long career
as his own master, working as minor
executive and ad writer was onerou'

Mr.. Anders III was born in Osccols,

ultimate Dot of gold. Anderson found
it early, and kept a straight-anead
course. in spite of divergins roads.
In time. a position in bakery at

1912. For seven years he piled his
trade with this concern and then Sc

had been playing a losing game-was
swiftly shooting the chutes. In 1920
Anderson believed he saw his way
clear to buy the place; he had served
u long APPRENTICESHIP. and was ready
for the masters work.
He had saved only a thousand dol
lars; but the bank, standing back OF
Anderson's caliber. financed the rest
of the deal.
In three years since his purchase of
the basery, Anderson has increased
the output of his bread from three
hundred loaves TO two thousand loaveS
ton of sweet rolls runs from eighty

to two hundred dozen: and the cookie
business, too, is humming along. Ovec
three truckloads of flour are used
weekly in Anderson's ovens.
Anderson has abandoned the retail
end of the trade-or rather, he han
dies the roll and pastry business
through local grocery store on Il
commission basis. With the exception
of two business houses. he furnishes
all the hotels, restaurants and grocery
stores in Onawa with their baked
goods.
Not long ago the capacity of the
oven in the original place grew made
uuate. so Anderson bought and rehicd-
eled another building. This new bak-
ery is one of the most modern in
western Iowa.
Mr.. Anderson. like many other sue

quality the credit for his achievement.
He has nut on number of rather
unique publicity stunts. too. For in-
