shameful things in the history of our southern tates is the denial of educational facilities to colored people.

Listen to South Carolina's superintendent of schools: "The education uf the t:, '

debar the most intelligent black man-a and you han opened to them the wal law which for sheer crass stupidity and to world usefulness. One of the most dense prejudice would have done credit to China in the Middle Ages! Dues the negro vote? Shreveport, Louisiana, has 1I,0UO colored inhabitants, and of these only 39 are qualified to vote. J n the state of Georgia, with a colored µopulation of over a million, only 1 u,uuu negroes are qualified to vote. The condition is the same in every southern state. In one county in Virainia a colored man, a graduate oc

Uarvanl l.Jniversity, who had long resided in the county, went before the hoard to register, and was refused on the around that he was not intellingem eno~gh to vote. Defore he had left the room, a white man came in, so drunk that he could scarcely tell where he lived, hut he was regi 'tered, and by a hoard of intellirrent white men who had t:, • ft1ken an oath to deal justly in adnunistering the law l ls that justice? "\ \'ill any one say there is wisdom or statesmanship in such a policy as that?" asks Booker T. \Vashington. Ue says, ··111 my opinion it is a fatal mistake to teach the dominance to cultivate in the mind of any individual or group of individuals the belief. that their happiness rests upon the 1111ser! of someone else, or that their intelligence is measured by the ignorance of some one else, or their wealth by the poverty of some one else. A large part of our radical troubles grow out of some attempt to pa s and execute a law that will make and keep one man superior to another, whether he is intrinsically superior or not."

But what the negro needs most of all-what he must have, unless he is to be a dangerous element in our ciYiliza tion-is adequate education. Keep race in darkness and ignorance, ano they will he brutalized and debas_ed GiYe them knowledge and opportu111ty,

negro in South Carolina is in the hands o[ the white race. The negro school houses are miserable beyond description. They ;ire usually without comfort, equipment. proper lighting, or sanitation. 1Iost of the teachers are untrained, and have been given certificates not because they haYe passed the examination but because it i. necessary to ha ,·e some kind of a negro teacher." The southern sta1es as a whole spenrl an aYCrage of *IO for the education of each white child, and %2 for each negro child. In Charleston $:33 was spent for each white child, and ~·2.30 for each negro child. Fourteen times as much for the white! ls that a square deal? Is it strange if the negro rises slowly? In Georgia the two races are equal in numbers, but the whites have two thousand more schools than the nerrroes. There is not in all Georgia one colored high school with a four years' course abo\'e the eighth grade, and only four towns have any work at all aboYe the eighth grade! In that state there are eleven agricultural high chools for white children, and not one for negroes, though they form half the population and live in the country! Is not this discrimination unjust and unfair? There is practically not one fairly equipped high school for negroe5 in all the old South! The negro youth who wishes to become a teacher must pay for priYate schooling. \Vhere i.; our sense of justice? In Alabama the ,erao-e lenoth of negro school terms a, b b and the salary of teachers has been steadily reduced; there is a con tant attempt to lessen the number of grades

Their official confe that negro taxes more than pay for negro chool and are diverted to the upport of the white chool , in um varying from 4,000 in Florida to over $141,000 in Georgia!

would force another down, that he might be exalted thereby, is himself a slave to the lowest of passions. The man who would through race prejudice deny equal rights and privileges to an· other man, is himself a more dangerou., citizen than the other could ever be. For our own sake, we must lift the black man to our level. \Vhen shall we forget the night of hate and waken to the morning-a morning when men shall ask for the workman, not ''ls he black?", but, "vVhat can he do?" \Vhen shall we conquer our blind hatred, our selfish prejudice, and welcome all men on the broad and equal foundations of universal brotherhood r \Vhen shall we overcome our narrow antipathies, and stretch a helping hand to the souls around us, struggling in the depths of a night we cannot understand?

come, when the pent-up vigor of ten million souls shall sweep irresistibly toward the goal, out of the valley of the shadow of death, where all that makes life worth living-liberty, justice and right-is marked 'For white people only."

Three thousand years ago, another race was being held in bondage, by the most powerful nation of the earth. To that haughty ruler came a prophet from the desert, with a simple, stern message: "Let my people go." The messenger was weak, but back of him was the power of Jehovah. To the American nation today, Jehovah is speaking, and in no uncertain tones. hall we heed His message, or shat! we harden our hearts, refuse, and be destroyed? For Ilis mes age is the same: ''Let my people go!"

AT last the much talked of cha111pionship game between the old rivals, \Nest town and Oakley, was over. The last faint notes of "Bail. hail," had died away, and the end of the lock steppino-, zigzaging, snake like line of students had disappeared across the campus. Up in the Athletic Building, however, little groups were still lingering, discussing the game. Over in one corner the discussion appeared e pecially animated. [ Iere was gathered a little group of alumni. collected from far di tant place to see their Alma Mater led to a brilliant victory over Oakley_

"\Vard," said the prosperous, business like man in the center of the group, ''This game was a little differ· ent from the first game vVest town played Oakley, wasn't it?"

The man addressed as Ward smiled,

a if recalling something amusing. The prosperous looking man chuckled. "I don't believe any one besides the coach and team ever heard that story, \Vard. Tell the fellows about it."

\\Tard turned his chair to face his little audience, and as he did so, conversation all over the room was hushed. \Vard, the most famous halfback \Vest town had C\'Cr had, was going to tell a story of his experience on the gridiron! Every one listened with attentive ears.

"\Vell," he commenced, "you fellows know it was the first game West town ever played Oakley that this occur r ed. Of course I had played othe r games that year, and we had won, too, but this was to be the most important of all. Naturally I wanted to make good.

"At practice on the day before th-! big game the coach called us together

and gave us a little talk. He reminded us of the importance of the game. and urged us to do our best. In conclusion Coach Exeter told us to be at the gym at one-thirty sharp, for the game was to be called at two. He told me particularly, because I was generally the last man to arrive before the game, and if there was anything th:i.t exasperated Exeter, it was unpunctuality. "And remember, \,V ard," he concluded, ''I'll accept no more of those wonderful explanations of yours." Here the speaker grinned reminiscently. "I'm sure I spent enough thought on those explanations to have them accepted," he complained. "But Exeter always was a sort of suspicious chap. He was a student here himself, once.

"\.Yell, to go on with my story, 1 firmly resolved that nothing short o~ battle, murder and sudden death would make me late that day. You know I lived at the other end of town, and to get to the field at 1 :30 I would have to leave home at 1.

"But it certainly seemed as if the fates were against me that day. Everything went wrong, and it was 1 :15 before I left home. till by hurrying, I thought I could make the field only a few minutes late. So I started· on a dog trot down the street.

"I suppose, being in such a hurry, I wasn't very careful to look where I was going. Anyways as I rounded a corn er, I bumped into and nearly knocked over an old lady. Of course I had to stop and apologize. "Pardon me, 'Madam,' I aid, 'but I was in a hurry and didn't see you'."

"The old lady looked at me in a puzzled way. 'I beg your pardon' he said, 'but will you repeat what you said? I'm a little deaf,' she added in an apologetic tone.

"I was furious at the delay. 'Beg

pardon!' I fairly shrieked.

"Oh, that is all right," she smiled.

"I started to pass on, but she detained me. 'Young man' she queried, 'could you tell me where the \Nest Hotel is? I'm a stranger here, and I'm afraid I'm lost."

''Take -a-Linden-Ave.-car-get off -at-Town-and- State- streetand -walk-two--blocks-to-yourright, I strung it all together in my anxiety to be off.

"I'm afraid I didn't quite catch that," she said in a puzzled way. 'Take a State Ave. car, get off at Yinden-oh, I can't remember that! What will I do? How will I get there?

"As I looked at the pathetic, bewildered little figure, all my anger at being detained died away. No, she could never get there alone, that was sure. Deaf, alone, and in a strange city-my duty was clear. 'I'll take you there' t volunteered."

"Of course she protested against my going out of my way to assist her, but in the end I accompanied her. I saw her safely to her hotel. And then the warning of the coach, forgotten for the Lime, flashed across my memory. I pulled out my watch. Two o'clock! The game was just being called!

''vVell, I certainly broke all records that day. I ran for the field as if my life depended on it. But when I ran breathless into the gym, the fellows had come in from the first half, and there was a ub at ha-If back. And the expression on the faces of my team mates told me better than words that Wests town was being whipped.

"Nobody said anything to me." In perfect silence the rubber helped me into my suit, and just as the whistle blew I ran on to the field.

None of my team mates spoke to me, and the coach-! The expression on hi face frightened me.

·•Well, I played my best, but I knew the game was lo t. \Ve di<l manage to bring up our score, though, and when the game ended, the score stoo<l 30-20, for Oakley.

"Of course I knew I was in for it after the game. \\'hen I went into the gym, the fellows still preserved their freezing silence. And as I passed the coach, he said shortly, '\\'ar<l, stop m my office after you get dressed. I want to see you.

"Accordingly after I dressed I went into his office. He was writing, and for a couple of minutes he did not look up. Then he swung around in hi chair. '\Vell ?' he demanded, '\\'hat explanation <lo you have to offer?'

"I started to tell him about the old lady, and as the story proceeded, hi~ expression grew more and more satirical. 'Indeed!' he said, in a dangerously polite tone, as I concluded. 'It is extremely unfortunate that old ladies in distress appeal to you at such inopportune times, Mr. \ Yard. But I think I told you that I couldn't accept any more of those explanations. Hereafter Mr. Jones will play half back on the varsity. You will take the same position on the second team."

"For a moment I stood there stunned. I, \Vard the champion half back of the state to play on the second team." I turned around mechanically and walked out, wondering what l would do.

"I didn't know: what to do about going to practice the next day, but I decided to try it out. So I went out to the gridiron the next morning.

"I think I could have stood being put on the econd team if it hadn't been for the attitude of the fellows towards me. To one spoke to me unless it was absolutely necessary, and frequent satirical asides as to 'Ward's old lady in distress' made my ears tingle. I stood it as long a I could, but finally I could bear it no longer. At a lull in prac-

tice I left the field and ran over to the gym. I went in and took off my smt. I was through with football.

"After I dressed I started down the hall to the coch's office to tell him oi my determination. As I entered the door, to my astonishment I beheld the old lady of the day before sitting there, chatting vvith the coach. I started to back out of the room with a muttered, "Pardon me," but the old lady had recoonized me. '\Vhy, Jim!' she cried to the coach "that's the young man I w:::5 just telling you about, the one who helped me yesterday !"

"Come in here, \ Vard !" Exeter called. Of course there was nothing for me to do but go in. _\nd there 1 had to sit, much to my embarrassment, while the old lady made me out a hero, a rescuer, a regular knight-errant ''\\'hen she had finished. Exeter got up and came over to me. 'I beg you,· pardon, Ward' he said simply. My aunt was just telling me of a youngman who came to her assistance yesterday, but it never occurred to me that it was you. And I want to tell you \\Tard," he continued. "that I think i: was one of the finest things I haYe ever heard, for you to help an old lady ~r. preference to winning the honor that wou·ld have fallen to you through winning the Oakley game."

"Of course I was much embarasse<l. and I stood, first on one f('Ot, and then on the other, blushing like a school girl. '':\.nd, by the way. \\'ard" of cour,;e you will resume your position tomorrow. ''IIi, fellows!" he called t0 the team, who were just coming in off the field. "Come, in here, I want to tell you something."

. The speaker smiled. "The fellows all apologized to me, and I felt too foolish for word . Of course I didn't give up football after that. And the next year I had the satisfaction of beating Oakley to a frazzle, just as old \Vest town has done to day

COCHRAN HALL ITEMS.

The old girls of Cochran Ilall are glad to welcome into their midst so many new girls. On \Veclnesclay evening the new girls were entertained at an informal reception in the Cochran Hall parlors. IT ere the Constitution was read and the girls learned what they might and might not do. Poor girls! Nothing but rules! Mrs. Carey gave a talk, and welcomed the girls under her care, but was careful to inform them that she knew when they did wrong, without spying.

The new "stunt" in the dining room is the serving of plates. Every girl hac; been coming promptly for her allotted portion. vVill the good habits continue, or time tempt otherwise?

Mrs. Carey objects to the wearing of breakfast caps in the dining room. What will some poor sleepy heads do?

T:t1e Forensic department of the Aegis, lakes great pleasure in presenting to our readers our newly elected profess o r of Public Speaking. ~fr. An thony F. Dlanks. Prof. Blank ha$ been here only a very short time. yet he ha already won the esteem and confidence of all those who know him. IT is handsome and pleasing ways eac;ily win for him the friendship of all.

I\lr. Dlanks is from Dixie Land, hut while from Louisiana, he belongs, as a platformist, to many states. Ile has an A. M. degree from Vanderbilt University and a like degree from Ohio Wesleyan. He is also a member of the honorary fraternity of Phi Deta Kappa.

Prof. Blanks comes to us both as an experienced teacher and a platformist. so that we are confident that we have

a very efficient man at the head of a very worthy department of our colleg·e curriculum. He was for two years an instructor in platform arts at Ohio \\"e lcyan University, w o rking under such a n o ted man as Professor Fulto.i. \\ ' bile there he was a member of the Varsity Drama Club, and in the season o f ('11-'12) appeared in 25 cities uf Ohio and Indiana alone. In 1H07 Mr. Dlank made a seven month 't c ur with the Vanderbilt Strollers through England and on the Continent, where he met with most flattering success. If e has also traYelled extensively in the U. S. so that he is well acquainted witl1 the spirit and feelings of every sect i on of our continent. He was for one year Professor of elocution in the university of California, and has also given much private instruction.

Mr. Blanks comes to us with very highest recommendations and we are sure he will not disappoint us if we will only give him our support. He presents several plendid elective courses in Public Speaking, of which every man and woman in the chool, iuterested in literary work should avail themselves . Prof. Blanks is also planning elaborate arrangements for intercollegiate debating and asks that all the men, both r, lrl and new come out and support debate. Let us all stand by Prof. Dlanks and help make this the best year for public speaking in the hi story of Otterbein.

CONSERVATORY NOTE&

Although the enrollment of st udent'> in the Conservatory has been slow, yet a goodly number have enrolled anJ classes in Harmony and History of Mu ic will have a large attendance this year.

Professor Bendinger will have charge of the Chapel Choir.

Anthony Faulkner Blanks.

Miss Jansen and Mr. Spessard wi_ll have charge of the music in the Public Schools of Westerville. Mr. Spessard will introduce the new course that the college is offering. This course is to meet the need of the average school ptrpil. There will be storie about the lives of great musicians_, and work along lines tending to mcrease the child's interest in music.

Friday afternoon, Sept. 12th the old members of the Glee Club met Prof. Dendinger in his study to t~lk over plans for the club for the commg year. When the roll was called it was found

that the club had lost a great many members by graduation.

The good feeling and fraternal spirit that has always been so marked in the former clubs is going to be present this year and this al u ne is incentive enough for any man t o want to be able to say that he is a member.

The vucal training and schooling ill directing is s o mething than can not he gotten any where else in Otterbein.

Lets make the Glee Club this year the best that it ever has been and a strong feature in Otterbein activities.

Y. M. C. A. Summer Conference.

One of the greatest opportunities which can come to a college man is the privilege of attending a Summer Conference of the Y. M. C. A. The conference, this year, held at Eagles Mere, Pennsylvania, was in session from June 13 to 22 and Otterbe!11 was represented by A. D. ~e\':'man and 'N. E. Roush. \Ve also claimed the Bonebrake Seminary delegate who wac; M. L. Hartman, of the class of 19 l2 of Otterbein.

The famous Lake of the Eagles, (Eagles Mere) is situated on t_he very crest of the Alleghenies and JS more than 2,000 feet above sea level. The beauties of this sheet of clear fresh water are indescribable. Encircled by a slight elevation covered with 1:1ountain trees and plants, it sparkles 111 the briaht sunlight or dances quietly in the sof~ light of the moon. In such inspiring environments, t(1e de~egate.3 spend ten days communmg with nature and nature's God.

Bible Study and Mission Study are

two very important wurk. These classes are conducted by experts and meet every murning. r\. platform meeting js also held every forenoon. These together with Vesper sen ice on the lake compose each day's program.

On~ of the features of this year's Conference was the large foreign delegatic,n. Fourteen foreign nation!:> were represented and some of these by everal delegates. It is a very impres sive spectacle to see representatives <i the students of every important nation and every race on the face of the earth stand tog-ether and with one vu1ce declare what Christianity has clone for them. The !:>trugglcs in these nations have been great but victory 1s as ·urcd.

Each of the foreign delegates w,1s ,.,vell received by all, but Baron Nicolai of Russia, a man of superior talent and consecration to his work, who was the interpreter of several European languages, became almost the idol of every one present. Prominent am ng the other speakers, from at home and

abroad, were Professor Cairns, of Scotland, Professor Dartique, of Switzerland, Robert \\' eiler, of England, Bishop R.~1inelan<ler anll Doctor Rausenbush of our own country.

Listening to addresses, however, :c., nol the only privilege of the delegates. Athletics are given a prominent place in each day's program. Dase ball games, tennis tournaments and acquatic contests are held. This year Princeton, with her large deleo-ation, won the championship in all three of these events. Otterbein, not having sufficient men to compose a learn, was placed in a group of small Ohio colleges known a the \Vestern Aggregation. This group lost in the first game to the Preparatory schools of Pennsylva111a. Hartman, however, distinguished himself on the "Theolog" team.

Taking- long walks through the most beautiful of mountain scenery 1s another favorite, pastime. Patns leading through all the mo-t interesting scenery arc carefully marked out.

All the various interest of a college man's life find recognition at the Conference. Ten days can not be mo1·e profitably spent any where than at the Eagles Mere Summer Conference o{ the Y. M. C. A.

Y. W. C. A. Summer Conference.

It was exciting when we had made the la t change for Eagles Mere. The journey thus far had been a jolly one but now as we boarded the quaint little cars decorated with webs and drawn by a tiny engine which was to take u ,; up the mountains, all were alert with hope and expectation. The scenery along the way was beautiful and before we realized it we were at our destination. Then followed a very hurryingtime while we registered and settle<l ourselves in our homes for the stay at

.iEGIS

the conference. Our Otterbein delegation of five was most delightfully located at Lakeside Hotel. This is one of the largest hotels and our ac· commodations were splendid. As Lakeside is located on the farther side of the lake it, was our privilege to be allowed to go and ·come on the steamer as we chose. The steamer made the circuit bf three miles around t.he lake, every twenty minutes. These rides were one of our daily pleasures, especially the ride home after thC' evening services. Then the moon and stars shining so beautifully on the lake made it ever so inviting and pleasant.

\Ve arrived on Tuesday, June 24, an<l on \Vednesday all Bible and Mission Clas es were started, together with the various other meetings held. It wa,,, much like school in signing up for work but with our beautiful surroundings and our most capable leader and instructors it was all one grand experience. These classes were complete<i by noon and the whole afternoon wa-, ·pent in recreation, walking, boating, bathing, tennis and various sports. The day passed too quickly and time was too short to meet with so very many. The evenin•g services were well attended, each one being a special feature in itself. At one of the evening services we were· permitted to hear delegates from ten different foreign countries speak. All poke English with the exception of one or two who had interpreters. \Ne could not help but feel the wide scope of the associa tion when we were in company witl, the 4:72 delegates, representing 75 colleges, 33 denominations and ten foreign countries. This was a wonderful inspiration in itself. Among the conference leaders were people of note from every part of the world. At the Sunday service, which perhaps was the largest and most important, the main

from the Y. M. C. A. at Otterbein to all parts of the earth to brighten and bless the lives of others and urged upon the new men to give their spiritual life its rightful development by faithful services in the association work of the college.

COACH MARTIN

\Ve are glad to welcome to our chool I oyal F. Martin, who is to be the coach and physical director for the coming year.

Mr. Martin has been physical director of the Canton Y. M. C. A. for the past year. He i a former Otterbein man but left school, in his junior year, in 1908.

While here he was active in :ill branches of college life. He was captain of the track team one year. He

was elected captain of the foot bali team. From Otterbein he went to th~ Springfield Technical T,raining School of Massachusetts where he completed his course. Mr. Martin comes to us with splendid recommendations of acheivements in the past three years.

FOOTBALL PROSPECTS

The question that is asked at the beginning of each college year is, \Vhat are the prospects for a good foot ball team. There never was a year when things looked so good. aptain Plott has a great bunch of men out tearin~ up the dirt, every night. More than enough men for two teams have been out at every practice and the enthusiasm and spirit is great. Everybody is working for a winning team. The spirit is only an indication of what will be done in about a week at Ohio \Vesleyan. Light practice is being held every evening, falling on the ball, starting and picking up the ball on the run, is being practiced.

The coach insi ts on every man being in good physical ~ondition and _he has said again and again that the traming rules will be enforced. Another condition which makes things look

JEGIS

good is the fact that so many old men are back. Howard Elliott who played so well as right end last year is seen in the same old place. Herrick and Hailey are still on the line. Russel Weimer i still snapping the ball, while Roth Weimer looks good for the line , Sommers is still in the back field with more speed than ever. Last our Captain Harold Plott is working harder than ever to put out the best team in the history of Otterbein.

Dut encouraging as these facts may be, there are still brighter prospects. , \lbert , \. Exendine and "Cupe" Lambert are here and they are going to stay until a good team has been deYcloped. Little need be said about these men for they are well known and their acheiYements well remembered by the friends of Otterbein. Exencline, about three years ago shocked all the schools of the state by putting- out an almost inYincible football team. As for "Cupe" Lambert, he is

Captain Plott.
