Y. M. C. A. NOTES. The Student Volunteer Movement of South Carolina held its annual neeting at Winthrop College on Feb ruary 17-19. The University was represented at this conference by Messrs. Wright, P. L., Ross, Brad ley, R. F., Garland, Edwards, G. H., Coats and Secretary Mills. The convention was one of the best since the beginning of the movement. The addresses, most of which were made by returned missionaries, were excellent. Each speaker gave in a clear, concise way the facts concern ing his respective field of work, each one emphasizing the great need of more laborers for "the fields are white unto the harvest." The reports of the different volun teer bands were very inspiring. It is surprising to know the amount of money and work which is boing given to missions by the college students of this State. It is to be noticed that the t colleges which contribute most are the ones which have a systematic plan of giving. cli We cannot close this report without tmentioning the social feature of the gathering. The Winthrop students wcre most hospitable, and the dele gates were royally entertained in the homes of the Rock Hill people. We are very much pleased to know that our secretary, Mr. W. P. Mills, was elected president of the Volun teer Movement for next year. On Sunday, February 19th, Prof. D. \V. Daniel, of Clemson College, spoke to the students of the Univer sity in Washington Street Methodist church. The Speaker took as his theme, "The Heroic Life," and showed first what false standc-rds of heroism are commonly held amu,--g men, and then discussed the principles of true heroism, pointing finally to Christ as the sublimest example of a life truly heroic. There was a splendid congregation out to hear Prof. Daniel, and one of the pleasantest features of the service was the fact that Columbia College and the College for Women united with us in it. The courtesy of the pastor and the board of stewards of Washington Street church in offering their church for this service was greatly appreciated. This is the sec ond time this year that we have been given the use of this church, and the cordial interest its officers show in ou work is a great encouragement to us. It is hoped that the next service, March 5th, when D)r. Burts, of Edge field, will p)reachl, may be held in the First Baptist church, but a more deni nite announcement will be made later. Dr. XV.

Able Address by Mr. Theo. Marburg. (Continued from Page One.) taken up, the money it costs to settle a single case, etc. The most serious defect, as Mr. Marburg thinks, is that the result is a compromise. What we need is a court of justice. The judges of this court will make inter national law. We will not need tre mendous military power behind it, but public opinion is to be its main sup port. Neutralization and the Inter-Par liamentary Union were discussed. The legislatures of the world powers must elect delegates to the Union and this will be an international parliament. Mr. Marburg showed briefly the economic weight of war. Our govern ment is spending three-fourths of our annual national revenue on the army and navy, and for pensions, etc. The object of the peace movement is not to prevent war directly, but to make war difficult. Public opinion must be against it; all questions of honor, money, and territory must be settled without it. Prof. Rucker and Dr. Mitchell made a few well chosen remarks, and the audience extended the speaker a ris ing vote of thanks. Interesting Address Tonight. This evening in the chapel Mr. George A. Plimpton will give a most interesting address on "The Books That Shakespeare Used." This will, no doubt, prove of great interest to us all, and it is hoped that the societies will adjourn their meet ings immediately after the first roll call.
