Personals.

Lester Zimmerman, '09, and Harry Spahr, '10, of Wittenberg, made a three days' ~isit to Mr Henry Warner last week.

Messrs. W. R . Funk, F. H. Rike and Chas. Herly, of Dayton, were liere on business last Saturday.

To write about the lack of icy, as it may be called, the readcollege spirit is re,orted to b many editors in their dire distres r-f-''°==l~lr ,-,.,-,.,,.....Rt wan cop The rnt t10 of this paper is not to keep na ging at the student body to show more school spirit, but, by creating an interest in the various departments of col:ege activity, it is hoped that a natural growth of college enthusiasm will spring up to supplant the lethargy we all, as students, have so often manifested. A college must have a wide-awake student body in order to be known as a college in the full meanir.g of the word. Hence, to repeat, we publish this paper in the inttrests of the student body of Otterbein.

As an innovation, we shall devote the back page of the Weekly to the funny sayings and happeying in and about the college, whidh come to our notice. The intet tion is to make this ~age as amusing as po!>sible and in this connection we solicit contributions from th~ students. Any amusing incidents or foolish sayings should be given to the whole school to enjoy. So don't be selfish. Write it down on a slip of paper and put the same in our local bo,<; on the first floor

The rest of the paper will be devoted to all important news con-

South of the west end of the dining room is located the sewing room with two large storage closets. Directly east ol this sewing room across the hall leading to the dining room, is the serving room. Adjoining this room is a large pantry and cool room. South of the pantry is the kitchen, 22 feet long and 16 feet wide. A door in the west of the kitchen leads to the south end of the main corridor across which a passage cuts at right angles giving access to four double bedrooms t o be used in part for servants' quarters In the southeast corner of the basement is located the laundry 15 feet by 16 feet.

The second floor is divided essentially the same as the first floor, with the main corridor running north and south, intersected by two smaller corridors running east and west. The north half of the second floor contains six double bed-rooms, also six in the south half. Asceudin and de. irs are situated at the nort 1 an south ends of the main corridor.

The third floor is also reached by a double stairway directly over the main entrance. This floor is the same in detail as the second.

The fourth floor is smaller than any of the other floors because of the gabled roof. But there is ample space for two sick rooms which will be devoted exclusively for quarantining any contagious diseases. Ten double rooms may also be used for studies on this floor.

It is pleasing to note that every room will have two windows, and those rooms that are situated next to the north and south porches will have at least one window seat built in each. The rooms will be about the same size, approximately 21 feet by 16 feet. A general description of cne study room will give a general idea of all.

Each room will have two separate alcoves, which will provide for two single beds, also two closets of ample capacity provided with two eighteen inch shelves. A chandelier with four electric lights will be suspended from the ceiling

O ratorical A ssociation.

Deplorable indeed is the lack of interest in the local oratorical association. Everything is at such low ebb that no preliminary contest will be held this year prior to the state contest, since one man alone is courageous enough to enter. Active steps should be taken in the near future to revive the interest in this.depa.i: ment £. co-llege raining, that in a n other year we will not have to ac1rnowledge our deficiency when the state contest occurs.

Let everybody come to the oratorical contest Friday night between Heidelberg, Baldwin, Antioch and Otterbein and give our representative, Mr. E. C. Weaver, the best support we have.

Y. M. C. A.

The regular meeting of the Y. M. C. A. was held on last Thursday night at which Chairman Burtner of the nominating committee reported the following nominees who were elected:

President, S. L. Postlethwaite.

V. President, W. G. Snavely.

Cor. Sec., L. E. Myers.

Rec. Sec., L. C. Hensel.

This is a strong corps of officers who will have charge of the Y. M. C. A. next year. Success is already assured.
