association on saturday night the play is the work of thomas blame donaldson who also directed its production it is styled a musical farce-comedy in two acts and it certainly was every thing that these words would sug gest the scene of the first act is laid in the library of mr white's home at somewhere new york mr white has an eligible daughter who has the misfortune of having a number of suitors among these are a general an admiral a pugil ist a minister and last of all john brown 3d a lehigh senior the contest for winifred's hand offers the material for the greater part of the play after many laughable complications in which mandy mr white's cook and pug ryan figure quite prominently john brown and miss white are secretly mar ried although mr white feels bajd.ly about the entire affair he be stows his blessing upon the newly wedded couple and the play ends with lehigh as the grand finale the show was undoubtedly one of the best productions the associa tion has ever offered every mem ber of the cast was equal to the oc casion and merits the most favor able criticism the chorus too showed mr donaldson's conscien tious training and never faltered in its contribution to the whole effect the music was catchy the orches tra well balanced the costumes splendid and everything suggested rather a professional than an ama teur air the time of the action was on two successive

university tuesday may 8/1906 y m c a vol xiii mr k c mcarthur member of the national committee addresses student mr k c mcarthur one of the international committee of the y m c a addressed the sunday evening meeting in christmas hall mr mcarthur took as his sub ject the significance of bible study he began by giving a brief history of the systematic study of the bible as carried on in our colleges and of the hold it has taken seeing the great number of men who take time to study the bible the question arises what are the needs which it satisfies ?" there are two very evident needs the intellectual and the moral in the first place a knowledge of the bible is essential to the edu cation of every man as a broad ening influence no better can be supposed its influence on litera ture and common speech is firm set and impeachable history re cords numberless incidents in which the bible was a potent factor it is one of the fundamental forces which have brought about our modern civilization but the bible has a far more im portant influence on men's lives in that it inculcates in them the true principles of morality every man knows that within himself there is a something which responds to the ideal and which he vaguely calls spirit that spirit needs cultivation and practice if it would maintain its existence nowhere can man's spiritual nature gain better training than in careful thoughful and sin cere study of the mandates of god as recorded by human hands in his word in a listless game lehigh loses to swarthmore the lacrosse team was defeated by swafthmore on saturday at ore by the score of 7 to o in a very rough and one-sided game at the end of the first half the score stood 6 to o in swarth nlore's favor in the second half however lchigh played a much stronger game and only one goal was scored swarthmore's center trio was too fast for their opponents and were able to make a free man both on the attack and defense le high's attack played a hard game but were covered too closely and only had two shots at the goal one of which hit the goal-tender while the other went wide barth was taken ill before the game and after only a few minutes of play was forced to retire mor ris going in at center within a few minutes he was crosschecked and his nose broken but he finished out the game playing a remarkably fast hard game notwithstanding the whole team fought fiercely to the end but were manifestly out played in the second half hendricks was forced to retire and swarthmore in sisted on barth going back into the game instead of taking off one of
