On Frid ay afternoon, October 1, the opening game of Peru' s f ootball season was played at Peru with the Wesleyan Unive rs ity Coyotes, and res ul terl in a score of 26 to 0. This score would indicate a defea t but the spir it of t he Peru team and feeling among the Normal students does not bear out that indication. The surpri se came when the Peru li g ht li ne demonstrated its ab il ity to take care of the extra beef of its opponents without any great sacrifict:: of ground. While the firs t quarter left the ball in Peru's territor y, it was suffici entl y distant from a touchdown to ·g reatly hearten both J ohnson 's hopefuls and their rooters heh md the wire. It took fu lly one third of the second quarter f or t he visitors to carry the p ig skin across the line for the first t ouchdown. Failure t o kick goal gave t he firs t half of the game t o the Method ist team by a score of only 6 to 0.

ZOELLNER QUARTET TUESDAY NIGHT Was a Musical Entertainment of the Highest G::Jass

It was our exceptional good for: tune las t Tuesday even ing to hear in the chapel one of the great string quartets of the world. The Zoellner Quartet, fat her , brot hers, and s is ter, of Brussels, presented a rarely beautiful program of chamber mus ic; and in the memory of every music lover- and the number in Peru increases from year to year-the evening will long linger as one of keen delight. Exquisite s ureness, insight, and delicacy of feeling markt the work of each artist; t hough it is hard to th ink individual ly of musicians who, like these, p lay together absolute ly as one. At no time was there anything less than the perf ection of balance a mong the in struments, this being especially notable in the subordination of accompaniment .to theme in piano passages; a nd the unity of mood in interpretation was complete. In this matter of interpre tation t he quartet proved itself great ; f or it made a mixed aud ience underst::-nd and f eel many subtiP. things. F rom the dreaminess of t he lovely "Rain Song," and the mystery of the openi ng theme in the Gliere number to the barbaric t hrill of the Malichevsky "Scherzo," w it h its suggestion of Spanish castinets. there was no s hade of emotion not brot ' to ful l effect by the marvelous tone-coloring. The program cons1sted of f our numbers, a ll modern except the opening Hayd n composit ion. Of the four movements in t hi s attracti ve quartet the Adag io Cantabi le appealed per haps most str ongly. Then fo llowed a double number,

beau ty of the viola tones, which had been one of the special dements of charm in the " Ra in Song. " In the "Theme with Variavions," the main body of the Gliere composition; there were rapid and dramatic changes of mood and movement. A particularly beautiful detail was the sustained sh immering tone of the violi ns in t he Andante. The m0vement culmi nated in a Scherzo and of vivid brillia ncy, followed by the finale Allegro. Besides the solo encore, two others were given, both of unusual inte~est. The first, Thern's "Genius Loci," t ender and slow, with a delicate flowing rythm, was almost t he loveliest t hing played. As a fi na l encore, the quartet gave a sixteenth century minuet, by Vallusin, very charming in its crisp daintiness. This encore ended a program which marks an epoch in our Peru entertainments; f or it demonstrated that we are capab le of listening with pleasure t o the best music, with no concessions made to so-callert pormlar taste.

Y. W.C.A. TheY. W. C. A. work had made some headway even before r egistration ha d begun . Several of the girls returned earl y in order to meet the new students at the trains and welcome t hem to Peru.

Th r scor e was 57 to 0 aga inst them. Although the P e ru ag greg at in wa~ outweighed by forty pounds to the man, they fought gamely to the e nd. The we ight of th e ene my caused t he m Lo resort prin cipally to open plays , wh ich were worked q uite successf ull y. Line plunges were used, however, with success several times during t he game. Early in the fir st quarter P latz sco r ed a drop kick for Creighton. after wh ich t he Peru boys a llowed them only o ne touchdown during the quarte r in spite of the fac t that four of the Peru men were r emoved because of injuries. During t he second quarter, a l though Cr e ig nton succeeded i n making one touchdown. th e ba ll was he ld in their te rritory most of t he time. The half ended with the hal l near the cen ter of the field. During the las t ha lf of t h e ga me Cre ighton's supe rior weight had its effect, and t hat team s ucceeded in piling up 41 points to its creel it.

Miss Brown and the S. S. Convention One of the most inspiring addresses g iven so far this year in chapel was that de li vered last Thursday as a part of the proceedings of the annual convention of the Nemaha County Sunday School Association. Miss Brown fai r ly whirled her audience around the world i n thirty m inutes and packt into her talk more sti~ulating g :impses of the life worth while th a n it would be posisble to unreel from a moving picture film in eq ual time. She told the wonderfu l stor y of the

He will speak on "The Practice Schoo l in the Country." Roy Appleate of the model school had the misfortune to slip and fall, recently, causing a dislocati on of the e lbow and a had fracture of the lower bone of the fo re arm. Roy was taken to Omaha, Thursday, where an X-ray examination of the elbow was made. The junior g irls entertained the junior boys, the freshmen, specials, trainers and class advisers, last Sa turday evening. Old fashioned games anti contes ts were played, and li ght refreshments served . Ever_vone repo~td a delightful time. The junior gir ls mad e quite a n imperus ion.

morning. Professor Wilson, adviser to tne sophomores, gave a very interesting talk. Mr. Hoadley gave a "peppery" speech concerni ng the reception for the Kearney football boys. The ninth grade of the high school has challenged the tenth grade for a debate. A s~xtette f or the hi gh s~hoo l has been chosPn from the tenth grade by Mi ss Carpenter. Wed nesday in chape l the hi gh schoo l broke the rul e, "Children should b~ seen and not heard ," and a rous ing yell issued f rom their department.

TELLS OF FLORIDA TRIP. Miss Mattie Cook Elli s, who had made a hurr ied t ri p to F lori da the wee k befor e, gave a ta lk at chapel Wednesday morni ng on her experiences. Follow ing are some ext racts f r om her talk, wh ich r eceiv-

For some ti ~e people have been specul ating how the Juni or-Senior Banq.uet can be m~d~ less formal and more enjoyable. Some plans have been · suggested. In a moment of generosity, th e boys mtim.ated t.h at th ey would perm it th~ girls to ask th em for dates, an appropriate arrange m ent for leap year. But the girls objected-the suggestion cam e from th e wrong quarter. What is wanted at th e banqu et is a thoroly mixed cro wd and there is bu t one way to g·et it. Let this be our slogan "Every boy with a girl. at th e Junior-Senior Banquet. " It m akes no difference if dates ar e gotten in primeval fashion or in leap year sty le. But w e mu st have dates. Make this as mu c h a part of the banquet program as t he eats.

Ask ear ly and avoid th e rush!

RELIGIO US AND SOCIAL BETTERMENT I Splendid Campaign by Y. M. and Y. j W. C. A. Last Week. . I

The religious and soc ial better - i ment campaign which began Sunday. March 19 and ended Tuesday evening was in many ways hi g hl y satisfactory. Altho the quarterly examinations and other activities of the week preclude d the rous ing success which it otherwise m ig ht j have been, yet the attendance was good and it is certain that these meeti ngs have le ft r es u lt s in the hearts of P er u students which wi ll bear fruit. Rev. E. A. Worthly, from Wesleyan, C. A. Musselman, state ra ilrJad and city Y. M. C. A. secre tary, F. C. Macmillan, millionaire I mine owner and railr0ad president, I E. J. Simonds, student secr etar y I of the Y. M. C. A. of t h is state, and Miss Joseph ine Lynch , terr itorial secretary of the Y. W. C. A., formed the force of o u tside workers. These leade rs were at work constantly during the t hree days, either addressing meet ings of the young men and young wo men of the school or hold ing personal conferences. On Sunday Mr. Mac mi llan ad dressed sever a l m ee tings in t h e vari ous churches. The paradoxical situation of a millionair evangelist was no m o re striking than t he prartical views which Mr. Macmillan gave of r e ligi f) n and its advance among prominent and successful m e n of toda~. . On Tuesday e vening a ster eoptl - j eon lecture was delivere d in thP chapel by F. W. Bierl.v. The views , shown were exception a lly fine ones ! of l!;stes Park. The Chr is tia n organi zations f ee l fortunate in finding it possible ~o secure t hese ab le pe o ple for th. 1s the cam pa ign wtl l ~ work, and doubtless be fonnd to hav~ ~on tnbuted much both to th e effic le n cy of our Y. M. an ·i Y. W.. an~. t~ that religi o us atmosp he r e for w IC Peru is praised.

In last week's report of the Science Academy, no mention was made of a paper on Modern Conveniences in the Country, by Professor Garey. In his absence the paper was read by Prof. J. M. Howie. The latter was elected vice president of the academy for the coming year. At the evening banquet toasts were given by Col. T. J. Majors and Professor Hoyt. Professor Bengtson a loyal Peruvian took a very prominent if · unobtrusive part in the activities of the arademy.

What We Haven't Done. Most classes pride themselves on what they have done. We rather lory in what we haven' t done. g First, we didn't win th_at football game from the semors.

want to take tthe seniors one standard of value away from them. You'll every one aO'ree that we Eo were certainly good losers. Next tht"ng we decided not to do was to beat the senior boys in basd 0f ket ball. Pure kin ness the · · b ' hearts that's all JUni Or oys · Then came the banquet. Many · · b e gall t of the JUniOr oys wer an enuf to escort a senior of I their own classmates. Don t thtnk they preferred the sen ior girls. It was probably decided in class meeting that they should do the gallant act. Wasn't it, .::)pacht? Again the .5e nior girls won from the juniors in Basket ball. Queer. you say? Not at a ll. It required only some tact and a little c lever thinking to let the seniors slip a goal or so in the basket along to· ward the last. We knew ho w the seniors wou ld fee l if t hey, the higher class, lost the game. So there ' s many a thing, you 1 I see, we haven't done. Why ? Just waiting t o do the m next year. Only modesty prevent ed our ec lipsing the seniors this year. , Hope ever y junior echoes these . ·I words and agrees that"1917' s the year." L. M.S.
