"Ignorantia legis neminem execu8at"
After a- business meeting of
the Law Association, the Moot
Court convened with Prof. Nel
son Frierson as presiding chief
justice and Thompson and Mar
shal associate justices.
The decision of the case Belk
vs. Latta, an action for specific
performance of a contract for
the sale of land, was deliver
ed by the court in favor of the
defendant, Justice Merrimon
rendering the decision.
The first case on docket was
Franklin vs. Sexton, Pender,
Heyward, and Wilson represen
ted . the plantiff and Messrs.
Curtis, Carroll, and Harrison the
defendant.
The case arose from the fol
lowing facts: Richard Franklin,
the owner in fee simple of a
tract of land on which is situa
ed a pond called "Frankiin
Pond," recently employed John
Sexton to clear out the pond
for him. While so engaged,
Sexton found a valuable dia
mond ring at the bottom of the
pond. Franklin knew nothingof
the ring until it was found by
Sexton, nor is it known by whom
the ring was lost. Both Frank
lin and Sexton claimed the own
ership of the ring, and Sexton
refused to deliver possession
thereof to Franklin. Thompson
and Marshall, concurring in
their opinion, decided unani
mously in favor of the plaintiff.

"MEANING OF NAVY"
BY NAVAL EXPERT
Lecture Will be Given in Chapel
November 11.
Dr. Edwin Breck of the Navy',
League of the United States will
deliver a lecture in the chapel
Thursday night November 11.
His subject will be "Our Navy
and What it Means." Owing to
the present conditions in Europe,
this question is a live one and a
good audience is expected to be
present. Newspapers have paid
Dr. Breck high tribute as an or
ator of force and conviction. "It
is amazing," wrote the Phila
delphia 'Enquirer,' "that one
man should know so much and be
able to tell it so well.
The students of the University
and others interested should
avail themselves of this splendid
opportunity of hearing such a dis
tinguished man. Heretofore such
lectures have proved very in
structive, and Dr. Breck's coming
is anticipated with much interest.
DR. J. HENRY HARMS
SPEAKS TO STUDEN iS
"Education as Self-adjustment"
Theme of Chapel Talk. I
"Educm ti )n as Sel f-adjust
ment" was the theme of the
forceful and inspiring address of
Dr. J. Henry Harms, president
of Newberry College, in chapel
last Thursday morning. The
speaker emphasized the need of
a sense of otherness and of indi
vidual preparedness for service
in our age.
Shirking is the greatest of sins;
genius the capacity for hard
work; the man who does not
work is not a gentleman but a
tramp; blessed is the fellow who
is not afraid of drudgery. These
were sonie of the thoughts
brought out in stressing the de
mand for physical adjustment.
He added that not the industri
ous worker alone but the indus
trious thinker will succed in the
great complexity of the new
order under which we live. This
produces the need of self-adjust
ment to a specific calling.
In showing that moral adjust
ment is coupled with success, he
stated that no morals are fit for
the threme of life but the morals
of Jesus Christ and that one can
snot make life a real success un
less he looks at it through the
eyes of Jesus Christ. 'Now abid
eth hands to work with, head to
think with, and heart to be with
-now abideth hand, head and
heart, these three; but the great
est of these is heart.' "He most
lives who thinks most, feels the
noblest and acts the best."
