Last night in our spacious gym we had the pleasure of seeing the Carolina' lads give a nice little dose of medicine to the descendanta of the world famous Martin Luther, and while the medicine was hard to give and mean to take the Newberry lads took it like real men, and we hope the results will not prove bad. The game last night usher ed in our favorite winter sport, and tne attendance was very good, but we hope next time to have many more of the fair sex, because their presence is a real tonic to our stalwart athletes. While the game was hard fought, it could be seen early in the game that Carolina had the strength and experience, for time after time our Capt. Stoney would cause some Newberry lad to loop-the-loop, and dance the tango before he could get a clear field in which to throw, showing not only the strength and ag gressiveness of Stoney. but the stickability of the Newberry men. But though out-weighed and out-experienced, the boys from Newberry showed grit and fight. It was a clean game, void of,un necessary roughness. The New berry boys were young, and while passing the ball fairly accurately, could not measure up to Caro lina when it came. to throwing goals. 1.t this phase our long lean, lanky Poole had a regular play-time, shooting them from difficult angles, and deliberately walking up under the goal, as if to say: "Now, little Newberry, just let Daddy show you how~ this thing is done," and Daddy (Continued on Page 819.)

MORSE'S FINAL Child-Labor and Compulsory Education Touched Upon. By Advocating Themn, College Man Will Be a Benefactor to Little Children. In his fifth lecture Dr. Morse painted out several means by which college men may render social service in protecting the child. In this lecture Dr. Morse made clear the fact that it is the duty of the college men to invade the homes of the ignorant and self ish parents, compelling them to give their children opportunities for developing themselves into intelligent citizens. The par ent may no longer say that his child is his property and that so ciety cannot say what he shall do with it. For every man's atti tude towards the child should be that of a "big brother,"whose obligation to the child is to assure him a fair deal. The lecturer cited two ways in which the college man may help his little brother and sister. First, he can stand for compul sory education: second, .he can stand for a child labor law. In discussing the first means, he dwelt-on the duty of the com munity to provide means of edu cational training for the children, and then force them to attend school. In discussing the second means Dr. Morse held that no industrial institution shoel thrive at the expense of the child's life blood. He also de clared that "any industry that cannot pay adults is a parasite.'" In concluding Dr. Morse stat ed that there should be special schools for the subnormal chil dren. He also touched on the college man's duty to the work ing women, the mothers of the working child. Dr Morse will be in Richmond next Wednesday evening. So the series ended with the last discourse. At the conclusion of the lecture the large audience gave the speaker a rising vote of thanks for the five great lectures that he has so ably and generous ly given. Mr. Whilden will lecture next Wedneday night on the same sub ject at 7:30. Prof. Colcock is in Atlanta this week.
