After The Game Was Over
(From The Pioneer

After the ball was over, after the close of day" Yes, the game was
over. Three hundred trbemen had enmassed to track down the
Bears They had sounded their hunting cry. Their war hoop was heard
for miles about. And after the hunt was over, what then? The Bears,
mind you, gathered themselves together and had a big dance at the
Yadkin Hotel.
Yes indeed, that's just what is going to happen tomorrow night
after the game. The LenorRhyne football squad is going to have a
dance 1t the Yadkin Hotel in Salisbury. Can't you see the good Puritan
supporters Of Catawba drawing back in horror-"puttings such ideas
into the heads of our Catawba folks" Win Or loose the Bears are going
to celebrate.
And what will the Indians be doing? That is quite a question. What
will we be doing? We, who are quite confident that the dance of the
Bears is going to be a consolation affair rather than a victory ceebra-
ton, what will we be doing? Some of us might go to the show. Some
Of us might remember mat we played a football game in the after
noon and remember to tell some of the boys that they played a swell
game. Some of us mght-oh. there n a lot of things we might do
But do these might dos" compensate for the fact that o. the
night of one of the biggest games of the season, the underdogs will be
IN at the Yadkin dancing. 1t should be the victors who should enter
into such celebrations Some of the glory of the day should be carried
into the night. The memory of the victory should not die with the
passing of the closing whistle.
The night should be filled with music; the memories of the day
should be recalled. The joys that we knew should not die. Such acti
vities are as much a part of a real college life a the game itself.
But the question remains, "what will Catawba be doing the night
Of their win over Lenor-Rhyne while Lenoir-Rhyne il in at the Yad-
kin dancing" Oh, that's right, there's a G. A. A. Carnival.

addressed the student body during
the regular assembly perior recent
ly. The purpose of his talk
was a citizenship campaign.
He said that the American

our own ranks. In discussion COOP

it is appropriate to recognize the
flag as a standard.
He said, "We are interested in
citizenship which means a great
deal to our country" He requested
that those ideas be transmitted
along the line so that respect be
shown the flag. He compared the
love and respect for ones college
with love of country.
One Of his statements was that
it took the World War to make the
United States a world power, now
faced with such world problems as
world relationship. In his opinion,
an American is a citizen who be-
lieves in a democratic form of gov
eminent and will respond to the
colors if called upon.
He stated that it is to be hoped
that war will be abolished with the
advance in education, and that a
league of nations or some kindred
institution make war impossible. At
the present time, Mr.. Gooch be-
lieves there is more possibility for
war than ever in his knowledge.
He concluded his address with the
ringing statement, "Let us enjoy a
mutual comradeship, one union, one
nation, and one flag"

 The West Coast Grocery headed by Robert Hyde has been doing business in Alaska for years. The late Arthur Rust was interested in Chichagof was his father William Rust before him.

 There are scores of others, all neighbors and friends who we are glad to welcome again Alaska and hope their stay the north will be happy and profitable one
 Alaska owes great deal to Tacoma for the fine way she has supported our needs from time to time On the air mail as on many other matters Tacoma leaders have gone bat for the Territory with imitation and all her facilities We in the north are not unmindful of that valued support and we trust that in the years to come Tacoma's business with Alaska will continue to prosper The unity of the Pacific Coast cities with the Territory one of the major factors which will advance development of Alaska and bring additional business to our neighbors in the States.

standardization United States News devoted an entire page of it's issue of June 1st to what in his words might seem to be gloomy forebodings" of national bankruptcy On the same day the Treasury offered a billion dollars in new Government bonds and notes and they snapped up long before the day was over with subscriptions about seven times the offering The interest rate on the bonds the lowest on any outstanding bonds and the rate on the five-year notes was 1s per cent also the lowest on the list
 The gloomy forebodings" of the Republican editor are not shared either by the big the little investors in Government securities nor does it seem that they share when their dollars speak resoundingly for them his fears of imitation. The proof is supplied only by the public reception of this offering of Government securities but by their prompt increase in investment value the New York Stock Exchange, For even the Hearst newspapers of June 2nd re- ported "The latest issue of Treasury bonds were dealt in when issued the counter for the first time and went to immediate premium

 The American people are not going to be easily terrified by stories that the federal debt and the fed eral deficit dragging them down to ruin when the solid and indisputable facts tell them a different story a story of increasing well being and steady march out of bankruptcy, the bankruptcy they knew and felt in 1882
 The American people do not need to be reminded that engaged in a depression and they have general knowledge that it's cost amounts to some 42 billions of dollars to date the drop from the normal atonal income of around 30 billion dollars year to the 38 billions in national income in 1882.
