Dr Holmes ' Lecture

During the past week Dr Abbey Virginia Holmes of Omaha delivered a series of fou r lectures on Socia l E ducat i on to the Girls' Club. Guests of the club at these lec tur es were th e high schoo l girls and th e women _ of Peru. The lar ge and at tent ive audie n ce in a pa rticularl y crowded week, attest the int erest fe lt in Dr. Holme s' lectures.

The s peaker wa s the emhodiment of what social educat io n C"an do for a woman. All girls we re quick to recognize in Dr. Ho lmes a woma n of wel l-d efi ned and sane conv ic tio ns

started.

And then it sta n ds to r easo n that any eight or ten year old b oy shou ld be in te n sely in te res ted in mter-collegiate footbal l; anu that th e interest of such a precocious lad would be the on ly thing str ong enough to attract hi s father, a staid o ld f arme r.

Another Peru Victory, (Continu ed !rom First Pag e.) took the pep out of the Midland team, so that another s hort pa ss, Gately to Sharrar, net ted Peru the touchdown that won th e game. Rasch tried for goal at a bad an g le and mis sed. Scor e, fir st half, Peru 6, Midland , 0.

Third quart e r. Midland kicked to Peru, wh o pl.ay ed a k icking ga me, gaining seve ra l ya rds on exc hange of punts and kept t.he ba ll in Midland's te rritory mo st of this quarter. Midland put up a terrific offence to sco re, mak.ing three first downs, but the Peru boys wer e dctermin ed to save the game and held before Mirlland got within str ikin g distanc e. Cop enh.aver wa s forc ed to leave the game due to injuri es Thi s left th e team with both its trusty tackles out of the game, Arl ee not starting.

Fourth quart e r. Both coach es mad e some changes in their lin eup. Each team opened up with r1asse s and fakes, oniy to be s moth er ed. Midland threat e ntd Peru's goal at the last minute of play Gatel y attempted to rceover a punt, the ball made a bad bound , just tipping his fingers. Midland's end rceovere d and was downed on Peru's fiv e yard line. Here Peru was called upon to show her mettle. With the charging of the lin e a nd th e brilliant tackling of Sharrar, Rash and Gately , th ey pu s hed the Midl a nd team back to th e ten yarrl line in their four successive attempt s to score. Ra sch kick ed to mid-fi e ld · Peru r ecovered, and Ra sc h ate ly booted the ball to Midland's fifteen yard lin e, who returned ten yards. A short pa ss to Midland 's le ft end was succ ess ful. Th e game ended Midland' s on their own thirty yard line. Final score, Peru 6, Midland 0.

The fullback for Midland was on the All-Gr ea t-Lakes-Navy team last year and was a bril liant player in Friday's game. Rasc h, Gately and Sharrar were the stars for Peru. GAtely' s clever work at quarter and Sharrar's ability to grflb passes put across the sco re that won the game. Ra : ch's defense at backing up the lin e and smashing ga ins thru Midland's

Elected Captain -----,.....

From th e Peru Pointer: What is Mt. Vernon's New Attr action, is the Quest ion

The business men of Peru gave a I banquet to the Normal football team at the K. P. hall Th ursday evening, in rceognition of thl' team 's work on the grid ir on this year Coac h Speer and twentyfour of hi s warriors were the gu l' sts of honor, and there were present b t>si de s these fifty of th e busin ess men and faculty. It was a jolly crowd, as ind Ped it should hav e be en fo ll ow i ng a record made by the team of five victories and only two defeats. The menu was so mewhat en igmat ical , and per h aps some of our r eaders will enjoy ' figuring out from the fo ll owing what it was the crowd had to eat: Line smash, scrimmage, ye llow streak, downs , criss t:ro!'l.s clots of gore, on s id e, de layed pass. scrubs , cold f eet , and Doane's brown taste. Suffice it to say that the supper was a fine one and the crowd did full JU s tice to it It was se rved by Dr Van ce and F. J. Gilbert, while abont ten of the younger girls of the Normal acted as waite r s. Th e of toasts were as follows : Referee (toastma s ter) Radcliffe Wil li e Kelly; Th e Old Guard -"S he' s Looking at You" Version, Willie Davenport; Hitting the Lin e. Capt. L Ro e ttger; Ret urn to Ranks, 1920, " Sh if ty" Gatel.v: What Shall We Do, Curl ey ; Kn 1cks and Knockers. Frnhl ich; Pep. Sp eed Sense, "Pep" S nea r. The ent ir e program was th oroly enjoyed When Earle Fi sh er , "F'ro hlich," fini sh ed his talk, he uncov ered a fine rocker and preSl'nt ed it to Coac h Speer , on behalf of the business men, as a tokea of their app r eciation of hi s work, and the coach r esl'lo n ded, thanki ng th e men fur it.

Be fore adj ou rning, Coach Speer r ead the names of fourteen who had ea rn ed their letters. Th ey are Captain Roettge r, Gately, Cot· tie, Shaver, Ke nesch, Copenhaver, Rasch, Prante. Sharrar, Higgin s. Rosenqu i st Fisher, Standley, and Chase. These men then hal lotted, and elected Rasc h captain for next year. Al l but four of these men wi II be back next year.

I am plea sed to know th at you lik e your work, as th at helps so much in every way. I think Peru is a fine pl ace to be; there a re not so many th;ngs to take you away f rom your schoo l work as there woul d be in a lar ge r place.

I only wish I were as young as you are, and just starting out on my career. Believe me, I would have an education and a good one. I just ache to know more, but of cou r se I cou ltl not see it when I was youn g, and did not listen. But 1 do want yo u to improve every chance you hav<>.

There are things that come up in business, one cannot understand wit hout a high school education, $lnd I suppose you ca n get all of this in t he model sch oo l, as it was when I was there.

Be sure to specia lize in as perhaps wh en you get in an office and are pr omoted from time to time, th e t ime will come when you wi II h ave to c1 ictate lettl:!rs.

PERU BEATS KEARNEY AGAIN

Won an E asy Victory Las t Thursday - Score 31 to 6

The Antelo pes put up a good but a los ing fight agaimt the "fi ve b , I 1g peppers of P er u last Thursday evenin g. "The Outo po lik s" did sp lend id individual playing but lacked the team work di splaye d by t he "Spearmints." The sco re demonstrates the su per io ri ty of the home team in indivi d ual p laying and in te:1 m wo rk.

Kea rn ey arrived on the bela ted eve ning train and appea r e<!, to be a tired bunch They had been on a tr ip for the week end and sho wed ev iden ce of hard playing. However they put up a plucky fight. A good share of th e ir misfortune was to be laid to the hands of te rrible "Bitse y." A s hot for g oa l was in dire di s tre ss with the sp1der - like tentacles ot t nis Pe ru guard waving in th e air. He caugi1t the bal l in mid-air when a thr ow was made tj me and again. ti II the Kea rn ey forward s thought the jinx was s tanding on "tall" legs that ni ght. That fiendish g rin on " Bitsey's" t ickl ed face, too, was e nou gh to make any K ea rney s ho t go wi Id.

And trave ls he llward night and day; Wh e re there is peace and ful l delight, And little noise and politics; Wh ere o ne can always sleep at night And wa ke to bless the morn ing.

OPEN LETTER

Some of the advertisements for clothes ''as g oo d as tailormade" are so well worded that I almost believe them m yse lf.

But I know be tte r. Years ago I bought an imitatio n di amond that they tol d me was as goo d as a genuine diamond-you can't tell the differenc e ." I never wea r it, but once in a while I look at it when I h ea r this "just as good" talk lt has been a lesso n to me.

Pe rhap3 imita ti on di amonds look like r ea l ones; imitat ion s ilk lcoks like r ea l silk-but the man who wears th em know.> the and fe els cheap. And my guess is that he looks ch ea p to others. Anyh ow he finds ou t there is a big difference if he tries to sell them. The real diamond is wort h its hundr eds of dollar s any time, while th e imitation won't bring thirty cents.

Th e genuine article is always wor th what it costs; the imi tation is dea r at any price. 'As a matter of fact , goo d tailor-made clothes, such as I build to fit, costs you no more tod ay than imitati on of do u btfu l qua lity. Th ey cost you less considering the lengt h of time they wear and give satisfaction.

Th e cloth I u se is genuine all-wool; the workman s hi p is a ll by hand; the fit is built in, not p re sse d in. And with every s uit is my binding money-back gua ra ntee.

Wh en you ca n get the genuine at my prices there isn 't mu ch u se of t alkin g about '' just as good as tailor made."

Come in and let me take your measurement.
