TIGER TEAM OFF TO BATTLE GREEN WAVE IN MONTGOMERY
SOPHOMORE HOP PROVES
BRILLIANT SOCIAL EVENT
Terpsichore Reigns Su­preme
During Past
Week -end; Many Out
of Town Girls Present
The opening social event of the
--«wllejre year- was featured by the
Sophomore Hops which were held
in the Gymnasium last Thursday, Fri­day,
and Saturday. A record num:
ber of girls were in attendance, help­ing
to make the hops the most bril­liant
experienced here inanany years.
The Gymnasium was decorated in
white and blue, with streamers form­ing
arcs the entire width of the ceil­ing.
Vari-colored fraternity and
sorority banners covered the side
walls in great profusion, and on the
wall immediately opposite the orch­estra
platform was a large electrical­ly
operated "28". At each end of
the gymnasium was a large spotlight
used to produce a soft light in har­mony
with the waltzes.
A very pleasing brand of music
was furnished by Phil Baxter and his
orchestra of Little Rock, Ark. On
several occasions they rendered selec-tions~

vocal rendition of, "Gambler's
Blues," "I Found a Peanut," and
some of the other Baxter selections.
Thursday night the first hop of the
series took place. Although the full
quota of dancers had not arrived,
many of them had, and those who at­tended
reported a very delightful
time.
Friday afternoon witnessed a num­ber
of "Lead-offs," the first being
that of the Scabbard and Blade, the
honor military society, whose ini­tiates
wore the most stunning cos­tumes
seen here for a very long
time. Following came lead-offs of
the Spades, Scarabs, and Stags. Fri­day
evening witnessed the longest
and best night of dancing. All the
girls were here, the orchestra was
at its best, and the balcony was fill­ed
with spectators, all eagerly await­ing
the evenings pleasure. After a
number of fox trots, the lights with
the exceptions of the spotlights and
the "28", were switched off, and the
Terpsichoreans experienced a period
of extreme pleasure as they wander­ed
through the realms of mellowy
lights and dreamy waltzes. Intermis­sion
was observed at twelve o'clock
after which Grand March took place.
Mr. W. C. Hopson with Miss Peggy
Whittle of Atlanta lead the march
and Mr. L. S. Whitten with Miss An­ne
Purifoy of Brewton, Ala., as­sisted.
At two o'clock the Friday
evening program came to a close.
Montgomery To Give
Rousing Welcome
y ' For Game Saturday
Montgomery, Ala., bet. 30—Mont­gomery
is preparing to welcome the
students of Auburn and Tulane with
open arms over the week end of Oc­tober
31. On that date the football
teams of the two institutions will
clash at Cramton Bowl in what has
come to be a classic.
Many and varied are the plans
for the entertainment of the visiting
hordes, foremost among, which will
be a series of dances, sponsored by
Jack Thorington and several other
socially prominent young men.
Mr. Thorington announces that
there will be a dance on both Friday
and Saturday nights and a tea-dance
on Saturday afternoon following the
game. Every effort will be made to
have these dances exclusively colle­giate,
and it is expected that a large
contingent of out-of-town girls will
be present in addition to the members
of the younger social set of the city.
SPECIAL TRAIN

The A.&W.P. will run a special •
train to Montgomery for the Tu­lane
game leaving Auburn Satur­day
morning at 8:30, and return­ing
will leave Montgomery at
7:30 P. M.
The tickets will be sold for one
way plus 25 cents which makes a
total of $2.39. These tickets will
be good only going on the special

PROF. GOOD BITTEN
BY COPPERHEAD
IN ZOOLOGY DEPT.
Last week while playing with
a copperhead Professor G, H.
Good, assistant Prof, of zoology and
entomology of Auburn college, was
bitten by the-snake.
Two or three weeks ago Prof.
Good and his classes of zoology
caught three copperheads and placed
them in a cage in the zoology labora­tory
for'the purpose of taming the
snakes, then later using them in de-i
monstrative and experimental work.
The snakes had been handled by
Prof. Good on days previous to the
time of biting and seemed to be very
friendly. This time the old big snake
was not so kind as to permit human
touch but undertook to defend him­self
by use of those deadly fangs.
Prof. Good caught the snake around
the/ neck but was unsuccessful in
keeping the snake from squirming

at Auburn. The group in­stalled
is made up of six girls who
formed a study club in September,
1924. About a month ago this local
organization received an invitation
to become a part of Chi Delta Phi.
Mr. R. C. Morse, National Treasur­er

TIGERS TO MEET
STRONG FOE IN
SEVENTH SETT0
Plainsmen Anxious To
Avenge Defeat of
Last Year
With the first section of the sea­son

unmarred of defeat as far as confer­ence
games are concerned, The Au­burn
Tigers are prepared to face the
stiffest part of the schedule which
calls for games with four of south's
premier grid aggregations, including
Tulane, Georgia, Vanderbilt, and Ga.
Tech, the first of this .quartette be­ing
the Tulane Greenies who are
booked for the coming week end at
Montgomery.
The fact that they were only able
to eke out a victory over Howard
Bulldogs by the narrow margin of one
point, and this after the Baptists were
held for downs during the last few
minutes of play with the ball only
about a couple of inches from the
last white stripe, has in no wise dam­pened
the ardor of Coach Morey's
Tigers. Hope is held out that the

cut crosswise and some of the poi­son
from the wound sucked out by

was then applied to the finger to
kill as much poison as possible while
the doctor was called.
Dr. B. F. Thomas was at hand im­mediately
after he received the call.
He bound the arm in order to pre­vent

No. 1—MONTGOMERY
Montgomery, Ala. is located in the
state of Alabama and has for a num­ber
of years been the capitol of Ala­bama,
although it. was originally lo­cated
in Alabama. Montgomery of­fers
many perils for the unsophistic-ted
Freshman unused to the snares
and pitfalls of a great city, as the
town is metropolitan in every respect,
having a population 36,666 on week
days.
In making the trip to the Tulane
game the Frosh is advised to take the
Western of Alabama out of Auburn,
as this railroad offers better trains
than any other railway operating be­tween
Auburn and Montgomery
(adv.) Once on the train the voyager
is advised to stay there until the
train slows up, runs along a yellow
river for a while and then stops
under a shed. This shed is a part
of Montgomery.
There are two streets in Mont­gomery,
Dexter Ave., and Commerce
St. Dexter Ave. winds up in a hill
on the summit of which is located
the state capitol of the state of Ala­bama,
which is at present in a state
of decay. If the Frosh is tired af­ter
his train ride and needs a bit of
limbering he is advised to climb
Capitol Hill.
.Besides the Capitol there are many
places of interest for the voyager
to visit. In the educational line
are Sidney Lanier, Woman's College,
(noted for the scenery), and dear
'Old Kilby, whose attendants are pro­bably
more prominently known than
those of any other institution in the
south, with the possible of the sister
school in Atlanta.
A total list of the places to visit
in Montgomery are too numerous to
catalogue, but the student should not
leave the city unless he has seen the
Fire Department, the City Jail, the
Street Car, and the Policeman. Hav­ing
seen these the Freshman can go
home and openly boast of his metro­politan
experiences and back in the
adulation of his less fortunate neigh-

The new Honor Constitution pro­vides,
"Members of the Honor Com­mittee
shall give short talks on the
Honor System at least twice a semes­ter
in the various classes of the col­lege."
In accordance with this pro­vision
talks were made during the
last week in many of the classes. The
classes were so selected as to, as
nearly as possible, cover the whole
student body without missing any
one, or talking to him more than
once.
The points most stressed were:
Honor System a personal matter
resting upon the honor of the indi­vidual
student.
The Honor System is not the Com­mittee's
system, but the student's.
The Committee is to protect the
honor of the students.
It is a system of privilege; the
punishment is merely a side issue.
This is the deciding year for the
system, we must make a success of
it or return to the old system of fac­ulty
supervision. It's up to you.
Turning up a violater of the sys­tem
is in no sense tattling because
it is the right thing and the thing
the students voted for in the adop­tion
of the constitution.
It is an indication that the man has
the courage to do what he knows is
right, and for the good of Auburn.
Since the honor system belongs to
the students, knocking it is knocking
the student body. Be a booster, not
a knocker.
Abiding by the system is being
square with yourself and others* Let
all get behind it and make it work
as it should.

be in the shape of a huge jar; and
will be under the supervision of
Miss Pearl Jones, food preservation
specialist. Canned and preserved
products will be sent from every
county which has a home demonstra­tion
agent.
In connection with the home de­monstration
display teams of club
girls will give practical demonstra­tions
daily in food preservation.
Exhibits for men and boys will be
along similar lines.
The animal husbandry department
will send nine steers which will be
classed as senior and junior yearl­ings
and senior calves. The Hereford,
Angus, and Shorthorn breeds and
crosses of the three breeds will be
represented. All will be sold after
the fair, according to Prof. J. C.
Grimes, head of the department.
The poultry booth will be divided
and on one side an inadequate house
with undersirable equipment will be
shown, while on the other side will
be a house built according to the
Auburn plan with desirable surround­ings.
Exhibits of various colors 'of sec­tion
and extract honey will be made
by W. A. Ruffin, extension specialist
in entomology, and Prof. J. M. Ro­binson.
In connection with this will
be a glass hive of living bees and a
complete line of bee equipment. Oth­er
interesting features from this de­partment
will be enlarged pictures
showing how to kill peach tree bor­ers
with paradichlorobenzine; the
best type of equipment used in boll
weevil control; and a case of living
beneficial snakes.
Agricultural economics will be re­presented
by an exhibit prepared,by
J. D. Pope, farm management special­ist,
which shows the various sources
of income and its relation to the pro­per
management of the farm. A
simple system of farm accounts will
also be on display.
Winter legumes, mainly hairy vetch
will feature the exhibit in agronomy
subjects. Placards, posters, and
photographs showing the value of
vetch will be displayed. Leaflets and
pamphlets prepared at Auburn will
be distributed. Frank Boyd will be
in charge.
The department of agricultural en­gineering
will present an exhibit
showing a complete layout of a
stiff scrimmage on the day previous
to the game.
The Tigers will be called upon to
face one of the strongest teams ever
turned out by the Crescent City in­stitution—
a team which has won all
of its games handily,- and boasts of
two sterling backs in Lautenschlager
and Flournoy. To splash the on­coming
'Green Wave will require all
of the strength that the Bengals can
muster, and realizing this, the Morey-men
have plunged onto the week's
practice with a vim and dash unequ­alled
so far this season.
This week's engagement will mark
the seventh time that these two
worthies have met each other on the •
grid rectangle in the past 23 years.
The first meeting took place in New.
Orleans, and resulted in a zero dead­lock,
A lapse of four years follow­ed,
and when they met again the
Plainsmen won handily, 33 to 0.
Not until 1921 did these two meet
again "the Tigers then being the vic­tors
by fourteen points. For the last
three contests the scene was shifted
to Montgomery in the new Crampton
Bowl. In the first game to be play­ed
in the Capitol City the last team
that Donahue coached grabbed the
decision 19 to 0. The following
year in 1923, the Greenbacks suc­ceeded
in crossing the Tiger goal line
for the first time, the game resulting
in a six point tie.
Last fall Shaughnessey's Greenies
gave the dope a spill and annexed
the first game that the Crescent Ci-tians
have ever chalked up against
the Tiger grid representatives, and
it will be a do or die Tiger crew that
enters Crampton Bowl in the hope of
avenging last year's defeat with the
dope no longer presaging an Auburn
victory. At no time within recent
years has the Green Wave enjoyed
such excellent prospects to lead the
conference pack previous to the Au­burn
contest, and the Moreymen ful­ly
realize that they have a hard nut
to crack next Saturday.

correct methods used in drainage,
terracing, and land clearing; the ma­chinery
needed on the farm; and the
advantages of rural electricity, as
well as how to use it. E. C. Easter

a newcomer on journalism row, the
Auburn Engineer. The maiden effort of
the engineers reached us today and we
extend our hearties congratulations to the
staff on such a creditable showing in their
first attempt.

absolutely necessary change our courses
for something more intelligible? It can
be done! We can withdraw from the popu-laristic

THE CLOSING OF THE CAMPUS
SEASON
With the last blast of the referees
whistle Saturday, the last home game of
the season was brought to a close. Drake
Field will not be lost in the background,
however, for the Tigers will be there
every day preparing for the battles that
are to come.
Reviewing the home season we are in­clined
to say that this years games have
been more intensely interesting than ever
before. The agitation for a major confer­ence
game for Homecoming each year was
started year before last with the result
that two of the greatest games of the sea­sons
were played on the Campus. Some
doubt was manifested as to the advisability
of bringing these games to Auburn but
with.the success' of the past two Home­coming
games all doubt has vanished.
There is no better time than right now
to start talking up a major game for
Homecoming next year. Auburn is handi­capped
by not being as dashing a metro­polis
as some of the principle southern
cities who put in their bid for the games
but on the two past occasions she has done
herself nobly well in .caring for record
crowds.
And why not? This first Homecoming
game found the Tigers setting a worlds
record with two field goals for a distance
of wer a hundred years, and in the sec­ond
game two more were added but not
for as long a distance. Prospects for 1926
shows even a brighter prospect so lets
get interested.
\
FAILURES?
In as much as a few of us have attained
various college's during a checkered career,
and because of the; fact that some are at­tending
college for our first time and
know the bitter taste of defeat, it becomes
necessary for us to make a self analysis
in order to learn and overcome the ob­stacles
that are blocking the progressive
path to success and ultimate happiness.
The cause of most failures in the mo­dern
college may be attributed to the fact
that the tendency of a great many stu­dents
is towards giving too much time
to outside activities. It is altogether pro­per
for a college man to select one or two
profitable activities of the campus to
which he may devote his spare time. But
on the other hand the matter of classwork
is a very difficult problem for the man
to solve, who devotes the major part of
his time to dancing, throwing wild parties,
bulling, and reading the so-called "snappy"
publications printed to divert the pusil­lanimous
minds of those who read them.
Many students have failed to make a pass­ing
grade on a subject even thought they
have worked on it for hours with a seem­ingly
red-hot concentration. Maybe there
are very excusiable reason for that stu­dents
failure. Do some possess the abili­ty
which others do not? Certainly so. As
we read Bacon we are impressed by a
quotation which in this case, seems very
logical. "If a man's wit be wandering
let him study the mathamatics. If he be
not apt to beat over matters and to call
up one thing to illustrate another, let him
study the lawyers cases." . Hence if we
are not making reasonable progress in a
subject or two it may be because we are
not particularly adapted to those subjects.
Again, indifference toward work may be
a factor in the failure of one to make his
or her grade. But out of the hordes of
boys and girls swarming the American
campus of today, only an infinite number
of them can be found with that attitude
predominating.
"The main faults with students today,"
says President Henry Louis Smith of
Washington and Lee University, "are the
placing of a genial personality above a
well-developed mind; the tendency to fol­low
in the rut of public opinion without
striving for original ideas, and failure to
develop real leadership." After a thorough
analysis then, why could we not make
renewed efforts, limit our outside activi-
GATECRASHING
Last Saturday as the Rat game started
a horde of some hundred or more students
stormed the field, or the sidelines without
paying to see the game. The Rat games
played on the campus are not included in
games listed as free contests, and if enough
is not cleared from the gate receipts it
will be impossible to bring another game
on the campus. We all feel that it is out
of the ordinary to pay to see a game on
the canals "but these~g"a"m£3,"are brought
lere for the accommodation of the students
and if this deplorable practice is not dis­continued
no more games will be played
in Auburn as it is impossible to make ex­penses
with deadheads occupying the
bleachers.
The Georgia-Tech Rat game has been
scheduled for the campus and if better
cooperation on the part of the student is
not to be expected the game will neces­sarily
have to be played elsewhere.
We have reached a pitiable stage when
the aspirations of the students are to get
something for nothing, or whose ambitions
are to vie with One-Eyed Connolly, for
gatecrashing supremacy. If this be true
then Auburn is not the place for you,
there is more room in the great open space.
Do You Know
I remember seeing in the American
Magazine, some months ago, an article on
a Column, written by a man who was a
columnist. He drew a very vivid picture
i
of the way he had made his column stand
up and beg for its daily bread for some
twenty two years. As I remember it, the
picture that he drew of the column, was
a picture of a very fat scroll of paper
standing on two very" thin legs, and ex­tending'
two very pitiful hands for the
small pittance that it was to receive at
the end of every two weeks. This column,
gentle and refined reader (collegiate) has,
if you can imagine it, no legs at all and
the hands have entirely disappeared due
to the lack of usage. It stands on its own
ragged edges with a decided hump in its
back and when the writer is not thinking
it lays down. The writer rarely thinks
with consequence that the column al­though
well rested is sluggish and apt to
say things that are neither witty nor sane.
Forgive my portage please, it cannot help
itself any more than I can. There it
stands, feebly and sleeply, although well
rested, waiting for the onslaught of your
criticism. Would you consider yourself
a man if you attacked it with no quarter.
No, no, stranger you could not do that,
at least have the courtesy to ignore it if
it offends your sense of dignity.
My column told me the other day that
it thought that there was a great and un­precedented
influx of radio enthuasism
into the fair village of the plains. Radio
is a thing that can or cannot be. By that
I mean that it can exist and bring joy
to everyone or it cannot be because it will
not bi'ing joy. That statement is an am­biguity,
but I think that I can make it
clear in this way. If you listen to the
radio and do not study you are going to
have to do away with the radio or leave
yourself, but if you listen to the radio when
you do not have to study and study when
you have to then will i*adio be a pleasure
indeed to the college student. Consider

A generous Job.—A Holyoke, Massa

had spent all his money, and began looking
about for a chance to earn some. Seeing
a group of men digging for the foundation
of a new building, he asked the foreman if
he could go to work. "Sure," said the
foreman, "help yourself to a shovel."
Picking ' up an idle shovel, the newcomer
worked away for a couple of hours. Fin­ally,
when he paused for a rest, one of
the men who was working beside him said:
"I don't seem to know you—where do
you live?" "I live in Holyoke," replied
the newcomer. "What are you doing

the case of the sheik who wishes to keep
up with all the latest dance steps. All he
has to do is to turn on the loud speaker
and dance away. But most .of all it will
help the college student who has a chronic
dislike to reading the paper every day and
would faint at the thought of going to a
current events class. Between the parts
of a program he is bound to hear snatches
of the news reports and he will not be so j
surprised to hear that there is a new war I
started as he was in the old days when
he did not find out till someone reminded
him that the war was over.
But taking radio pro and con there is
much to be said for it. At least it is tangi­ble
evidence that in spite of the fact that
the ancients were away ahead of us in
thought and culture (as some authorities
claim), we have something on them, and
are at least advancing 4o a certain degree.
Who knows but .what that in the near fu­ture
someone will invent something that
will take the place of radio and then we
will have taken a huge step forward.
It just happened that I walked into a
bull session, the other day, on relativity.
That was three days ago and I think that
my mind has segregated enough of the
froth from the milk by now to give you
a fairly good idea as to what the average
college boy thinks of Prof, iEinstein. One
fellow put it that what he ate for dinner
was relative to what he at: for supper.
However I'think that he mea: t proportion- j
al although no one b.dthere 1 to correct
him at the moment. Anot" er said that
the money that he received fs >m home was !
relatively unimportant. He was promptly
thrown out for facetiousness. Still anoth­er
had u fairly correct idea in that he
thought that the relative weight of a lo- I
comotive and a bullet going the other way i
was insignificant. However none of these
things suited me so I advanced my pet
theory which was that the light from a
screen star was bent so that I could not \
sec what other people saw—and I was
promptly thrown out. If boys would only j
look at things the right way they could
have a lot more fun out of life.
We have oft been reminded of the fact
that "litge drops of water make the
mjghty ocean, and little grains of sand i
form the mighty land." But what, I wish j
to ask, makes the air. I suppose that one
might say "Globules of gas," but that does
not rhyme with ocean or sand and cannot
be correct. But skipping from globule
to globule as it were, we come to the
fact that airplanes ride, upon the air even
asj you and I upon the merry-go-round. So
"then we might conclude for the1 ffl.Ee of
argument that the air is composed of my­riads
of globular hobby horses. "Rot" says
my old lady who was looking over my
shoulder, and rot it is; but, who will sup­ply
a third line for the little rhyme that
accounts for all the things that we see
about us.
The column, to date, reminds me of
that very interesting little story by Mark
Twain called "Innocents Abroad." If you
will remember there "is a certain part in
that story where the main characters are
taking a walk, during the walk they discuss
anything that comes to their minds. They
start off with a discussion of the styles
of the day and then slip into a discussion
of skeletons. From that they go to den­tists,
and then to a discussion of good
things to oat. I have gone from a plea
for a column to Radio to Relativity to
Air. And now I think that I will go to

BIRMINGHAM NEWS PRAISES
AUBURN'S EXHIBIT AT FAIR
Auburn College exhibit at the
State Fair in Birmingham is compli­mented
by the Birmingham News as
follows:
... .Probably the- must-complete of J>U J
the displays is that of the extension
service of the Alabama Polytechnic
Institute. It has farm and horticul­tural
products from all sections of
the state and the extent and variety
of these is a revelation to Alabam-ians.
There are big ears of corn,
bundles of wheat and oats and rye,
bales of hay, potatoes, both Irish and
sweet, tomatoes, peas, beans, okra,
onions, peanuts, beets, turnips, egg­plants,
apples, peaches, walnuts, pop­corn,
citrus fruits, pears and canned
fruits and vegetables and many
others.
"It is left entirety to the individual
whether we have a good world to
live in, but by proper preservation
of our own moral and physical char­acter
we give to the next generation
a- great help toward the road of
success," the Rev. C. R. Jenkins, pas­tor
of Saint Luke Methodist church
of Columbus, Ga„ declared at the
convocation for upper classmen here
last Thursday.
Preceeding Reverend Jenkins ad­dress
Dr. Dowell made a brief re­quest
of the student body asking
them to take the best care of our
new building, the Erskine Ramsay
Engineering building. He pledged his
entire support to the coming dances,
and urged the entire support of the
students in making the week end
one of wholesome pleasure for all.
"My success in life is partly due
to people's comments on my personal
beauty, a man can capitalize his de­fects
and make them serve him. Suc­cess
in life is a very strange thing
and it is hard to tell what personal
element makes success. If we put
over what we undertake to do and
hold people's confidence then we are
said to be successful. What is it
that enables some men of ordinary
ability, without personal achieve­ments,
to make the world greater and
better, while other men of numerous
personal achievements are disappoint­ed
by having no days to crown their
accomplishments?
"There are many barriers to suc­cess
but one of the most important
is lack of honor and noble character.
One must lo,ve their neighbor as thy
self, and don't try to deceive the
public as they will find you out. If
you practice deception the very men
you need to trust will discover the
insincerity of your friendship.
Even a mere child can't be deceiv­ed
long as they soon find you out.
A teacher can't deceive his students,
if he is not familiar with his subject
they soon find it out and conclude
that he is not performing his task
properly. A man must get the right
conception of God the one that fills
the entire universe of his presence.
He is personally present everywhere,

DE WE WANT GOOD ATHLETIC
TEAMS?
Every man in school should ask
himself this question. If you an­swer
in the affirmative, then why
not help the coaches to have good
teams?
Do you know that Auburn is one
of the few schools that does not pay
her athletes? Yet we have Athletes
who can tiot go to school without
help. Auburn authorities want to
assist athletes or any worthy stu­dent
and they are giving all • legiti­mate
help available. At the stu­dents
club we have twenty athletes
waiting on tables, or washing dishes
and five men that are not athletes.
These are the only jobs on the cam­pus
available for athletes and yet
you seem unwilling to support this
organization. Suppose it becomes
necessary to relieve foul" or five of
these "A" men of their jobs and

GIVE JOINT BANQUET
A fitting culmination to a gala
week-end was the joint banquet given
^b'y the Pi Kappa Alpha and Sigma
Phi Epsilon Fraternities on last Sat­urday
night.
The members of both fraternities
together with their dates assembled
at the Pi Kappa Alpha House at
seven thirty o'clock where the cars
awaited to convey them to Opelika.
Arriving at the Clement Hotel of
that city, they repaired to the dining
room where three long tables await­ed
occupancy. A five course dinner
• was Served to more than one hundred
guests.
This idea is an innovation in the
fraternity circles of the college and
was formulated with the end in view
of creating a more congenial spirit
among those groups, living partition­ed
off, as it were, from their fellow
students. It is hoped that the idea
will be taken up at future dates be­tween
other fraternities who maintain
such a friendly status as these two.
After the last drop of coffee had
been drained the merry assembledge
,turned reluctantly back towards the
villiage and subsequently to the final
dance of the series.
New York was shown to have numer­ous
advantages over the various oth­er
ports. Miss Rubye Powell made a
short and snappy talk on the latest
current* events of the day, using as
her title "Briefly Told." Solon Dixon

A party unique in every detail was
that given by Mrs. I. S. McAdory at
her beautiful home on Magnolia Ave.
last Saturday morning at ten o'clock,
announcing the engagement and ap­proaching
marriage of Miss Alice
Cary to Capt. L. A. Pick, of the U.
S. Engineer.
There were 38 guests .in all—32
of which occupied 6 tables at bridge.
At completion of the fourth hand
the hostess called attention with an
original verse as follows.
"At the end of the rainbow there
is a pot of gold,
And now I ask that you become
very bold,
And search until the pot you find;
Then take your seats until the
bell goes ting,
.Open .your find, and see what
t' will tifiligr'-^
Whereupon Miss Cary foun<T"at*the-r
end of a beautiful improvised rain­bow
a pot of gold that contained a
quanity of golden nuggets in the
form of gilded peanut shells, which
upon being opened were found to
hold the interesting announcement.
As Miss Cary held the pot, the
guests each in turn drew a nut and
much merriment followed. Beside the
pot of golden nuts was also found a
large package hidden within golden
wrappings, and containing a hand­some
portrait of the groom, together
with, an original good wish from him
to his bride-to-be, and also a beau­tiful
platinum diamond ring. In ad­dition
to these gifts there was a
beautiful set of hand-embrodried lin­en
doilies, a gift from the hostess
to the bride.
Again bridge was resumed, after
which the hostess called attention to
the oversight of the bride-elect in
not having found another interesting
package in the pot of gold, which
contained cards from each guest, up­on
which was written in rhyme a |
wish for the bride-to-be.
'Some were witty, some were fine,
Some were serious, some sublime.'
Later a delicious plate luncheon
was served, and everyone dispersed
in a happy mood—with the infor­mation
in a nut-shell.
• The -entire -fiirsV-fioer fluite cf the
McAdory home was decorated
throughout with golden flowers, and
huge ferns and palms.
Sunday School.
With a most enthusiastic and hap­py
audience watching, the Forum
Class of the Methodist Sunday School
staged with the help of the students
as good a minstrel as Auburn has
seen lately.
Music was the chief feature of the
evening, as most of the enjoyment
was derived from the musical selec­tions
given.
It must not be forgotten that Prof.
H. L. Hamilton's one act j>lay "The
First Row" was among the leading
events also. The personnel of this
comedy seemed to be well prepared
for the act.
In putting on this minstrel the
Forum Class saw fit to get the very
best, and give the Auburn citizens
"something for their money."
In making such a success of thfe
minstrel the Forum Class wishes to
thank all who helped to make the
minstrel possible.

TALK TO SOCIETY
The Wirt Literary Society met in
Wirt Hall Tuesday night at its .re­gular
hour 7 o'clock.
R. H. Elder gave a very interesting
talk on the history of Halloween. The
,main feature of the programme was
Mrs. Frazer's talk on the history of
the old time negro about the time of
the civil war. This was in the form
pr two. old negro love stories and a
third story about the reaction of
one negro family upon learning they
were free. She concluded her talk
with an account of the first auto­mobile.
In the course of the love stories
Mrs. Frazier brought out several old
truths, two of which were: Has there
ever been a woman who has never
been in love? There has never been
a woman who has never had a broken
heart. At the close of the love
stories Mrs. Frazier gave R. E.
Smith credit for having a learning

delight of the crowd.

MOREYMEN ANNEX THRILLING
GAME WITH HOWARD COLLEGE
Bancroft's Toe Counts For Howard's
Points; Tiger Line Holds When
Bulldogs Threaten Goal
Six
In one of the most thrilling games
ever seen on Drake Field, the Tigers
took the Howard Bulldogs in tow
Saturday afternoon, in the last game
of the season on Drake Field, the
«
score being the closest in the his­tory
of the annuai..engag'ements, 7
to 6.
The Bulldtfgs scored twice in the
firs'i half when the diminutive Billy
Bancroft, toed the ball over the up­rights
on two occasions, after he and
his mates had worked their way to
a point within striking distance of
the coveted mark. These two suc­cessful
boots gave the East Lake
crew a six point lead at the end of
the first half, it being the first time
that the Baptists have ever fared
well against their Tiger opponents.
With the score standing against
them, and seemingly unable to pene­trate
the Bulldog defense put on by
the Bulldogs the Tigers elected to
try the aerial route during the third
quarter and two long chunks netted
them 30 yards. Salter then took the
oval and shot through left guard for
the remaining yardage and a touch­down.
At his juncture Willijams was
injected into the line-up and while
the crowd waited with bated breath
—ite-CKatfcanoogan placekicked for
extra point which gave the Tigers
the margin of victory.
The Baptists from that moment
tried everything in their power to
put the ball across the Tiger goal
line. Some real excitement came to­wards
the close of the game when
Tinklepaugh raced from the Auburn
30 yard marker to the six yard stripe.
A penalty put the ball within a yard
of the coveted spot and - with the
crowd in a pitch of excitement the
goals, Brancroft 2, (dropkick).

Howard registered 10 first downs
against two less for the Tigers. They
chose to pass 16 times, completing
six, while the Moreyites pitched the
oval on nine occasions four of these
being competed for neat gains. De­spite
poor punting during the earlier
..stages of the game, Howard's buot-ers
averaged 33 yards in 13 kicks
while the Tigers got 29 in eight
kicks.

RAT TEAM SPLITS
FOR WEEK'S TILTS
Rodents Not Disheartened by
Defeat at Hand of Strong
Georgia Outfit
The rats are- in no wise downhearted
as a result of last Saturday's defeat
in the hands of Captain Bachman's
strong Bulldog Yearlings, and are
preparing to set sail for Pensacola,
this Friday to take on the
powerful Naval Station squad, which
administered a drubbing last fall to
the Tiger scrubs and was said to con­tain
several all-Americans within its
tanks. While their mates are engag­ing
the Flyers, the second will jour­ney
to Selma, 20 strong to wage
war at .the same time.
Last week's engagement brought
out several facts concerning rat
teams. In the first place the rats had
previous to the occasion, comparative­ly
no opportunity to test their metal
against a crew of the first water in
the conference. The Georgia rodents
seemed to possess no more latent:
strength than did Auburn's represen­tatives,
but they managed to get the
jump on the Tiger rivals and they
maintained their advantage to the
last.
In-4&^rst_play_of the^aing
ley of Georgia slipped past the Tiger
linesman for a forty yard run which
seemed to serve as a stimulant to
the Bullpups for the remainder of
the contest. The Tiger line proved
itself to be almost impenatrable, es­pecially
during the critical moments
when the bambinos of Georgia work­ed
the ball to within striking distance
of the goal. The Georgians made
practically all of their gains by slip­ping
through for long distance trips.
In the first quarter after Auburn
had held the Bulldogs near the Tiger
goal line, Fisher, fleet Tiger half, un­corked
his first long run of the game,
when he circled right end for 25
yards. Porter, however got the Tigers
in bad by fumbling and McCrary of i

With the above named sights pro­perly
seen and digested, the Frosh
should turn his steps toward Cram-ton
Bowl, where Tulane is expecting
to bowl over the Tigers and vice
versa. If all of the bags of concrete
used in the construction of Cramton
Bowl were placed end on end they
would reach from the state of Maine
to the state of Intoxication, with
enough to pave College street from
Toomer's corner to the main gate.
When the student enters the bowl,
he will 'see on one end of the gridiron
a large and rather angry looking
Tiger, who will be glancing at a
rapidly gathering and menacing
Green Wave at the other end. An
hour later, if the student should
again glance at the gridiron, he will
'see a sleek and satisfied appearing
Tiger in the middle of the field,
while he will see a few scattered
flecks of foam where the Green Wave
once held forth.
Go west young man! go west!

"It is safe to say that failure to guide and direct trtudy is
the weak point in the whole educational machine. Prof. G. M.
Whipple, U. of Michigan.
"The successful men in college do not seem to be very happy.
( Most of them, especially the athletes are overworked." Prof.
H. S. Canby, Yale.
"Misdirected labor, though honest and well inteiuioncd may
lead to naught. Among the most important things for the
student to learn is how to study. Without knowledge of this his
labor may be largely in vain." Prof. G. F. Swain, M. I. T.
"To students who have never learnt "How to Study," work
is very often a chastisement, a flagellation, and an insuperable
obstacle to contentment" Prof A. Ingiis, Harvard.
"HOW TO STUDY" will show you how to avoid all mis­directed
effort.
