ou've got to really give, afore you 'preciate whaf you take, ou've got to feel your duty, and an honest effort make. don't make any difference how grand the buildings be, ow beautiful the campus, how lovely hill and tree; ain't your school though it be the finest in the land, ill somehow you've enriche dit with a loyal heart and hand.
ain't a place that gold can buy, or get up in a minute; efore it's school, you've got to do a heap of strivin' in it. ithin its walls there's got to be some wisdom and some wit; nowledge can't all come from books; yo.ur friends mean much of it. ou've got to know 'em, trust 'em, 'till grajerly you'll find ou're all ajoinin' forces, with a willin' heart and mind, o make every aim and effort that will make a brighter light o a school that now is your school, the pale blue and the white.

"I SEE"
He said, "I See.'' And they said: "He's crazy; crucify him." He still said; "I see.'' And they said; "He's an extremist." And they tolerated him. And he continued to say: "I see.'' And they said, "He's eccentric.'' And they rather liked him, but smiled at him. And he stubbornly said again: "I see." And they said: "There's something is what he says." And they gave him half an ear. But he said as if he'd never said it before: "I see.'' And at last they were awake; and they gathered about him and built a temple in his name. An,d yet he only said, "'I see." And they wanted to do something for him. "What can we do to express to you our regret?" He only smiled. He to.uched them with the ends of his fingers and kissed them. What could they do for him? "Nothing more than you have done," he answered. And what was that? They wanted to know. "You see," he said, "That's reward enough; you see, you see.''-"The Prophet," by Horace Traube!.

Bitzie made 4 yards. A forward pass was incomplete. Bitzie's dropkick just missed the upright. Cotner took the ball on her own 20-yard line.
Cotner then opened a passing attack, but it was generally in-effective. During the rest of the game
Graf's men tried out new plays. The fact that Peru made thirteen first cowns to two for Cotner and that Peru gained 201 yards from scrimmage to Cotner's 63 yards does not tell how valiantly the Bulldogs fought.
On Wednesday, November 4, the Bobcats play Wayne, conquerors of Midland, in the last home game. Wayne has one of the state's strong teams; and the· Grafmen will have to work to keep the slate clean.
To date Peru's goal line has not been crossed by a conference team.
In past history, Peru has won nine and tied one of twelve games played against Cotner, with a total score of 266-85. Last year the score was 48-6. Cotner was the only team to score on tl:e Bobcats, and they did not cross the goal line.

Prof. J. W Paul, instructor of manual arts, has resigned. Mr. Paul will leave Peru at the end of the semester, to take a position as assistant s upervisor of teacher training, in the trade !!_nd industry department of the Illinoi s state vocational education systern
Mr. Pa•!.l is a very able man in the industrial arts work, and is worthy of the advanced position. He will be located in his home state among old friends. 1 From a po sition as c;;;,-.:ctor of vocational education at Superior, Wisconsin, he came to Peru in 1919.
The true motive of industri al arts work is often mistaken But as it is pres ented by Mr P aiul , more for the trainin g of t he mind and body than for trade trainin g, his teaching is g reatly app reciated by those who work und er him He has give n hi s teacher tra inin g courses to many students while at Peru. His personality has inspired many of the teachers whom he h as trained.
Mr. Pa ul's successor has not been appointe yet.

I A four-ye ar participation rule, a c onference regu lation on the awarding of swe aters, the ad.mission of two othe r colle ges, and the committing of a list of recommended football officials were among the most important items of bus in ess transacted at t he annual meeting of the Nebraska Athletic Conference held at Lincoln, December 12. P resident W. R. Pate Coach Lon R. Graf, and P rof. E. C. Beck represented P eru at the meetin g.
Beginning September 1, 1926, no player in the Nebraska Confere nc e may part icipate in athletic cont ests for more than four years. "Participation in any part of any inter-collegiate game consti tu t es participation for o ne collegiate year," so reads the new rulin g. T hi s will make impossible continued participat ion as in the case of our own Bitzie and of McKelvey, Tr app , and Smith of Chadron. The conference has also r uled on the aw ardin g of sweaters by its members. A player ma y receive o ne sweater for each sport in which he (Co nt in;ued on p. ge two)

Five speakers are scheduled for the evening. They are : Pres W. R. Pate, Dr. L. B. Shrev e, Coach Lon R. Graf, Captain Ralph Higgins, and CaptainElect Wilbert Zorn.
Only four veterans of last year's "wonder team" are agai n candid ates for t he quintet, and Coach Graf h as quite a task in buildin g a winnin g team from new materi a l.
Higgins will talk on the team of IL would be unwise to predict the outcome of the· b asketball season, but it can be said that much dep e nds on the attitude and s upport of th e student body.

The Everetts are especially sorry to lOse their first semester president, G. ivaughn Casler, and Mrs. Casler, who teach in Anselmo.
;. Since the Everett membresship is limited to seventy, there will be room only six new members the second semster.
: According to statistics almost every member of the society has taken part in the programs so far this year. Only six have not yet taken part, but will be caled into duty the second sepiester. It is an Everett policy to give every member of the' society an opportunity to use and develop his talent. Attendance at programs has been unusually good.
The next Everett program will be given January 28. Tnis program will be p1ublished next week.
PEP MEETING IS HELD just why the convention was held ana IN FRIDAY'S ASSEMBLY the topics discussed.
Friday's assembly was given over to instilling some pep into the student body.
Earl Craig, one of the most able student speakers on the subject, "School Spirit," gave a short, snappy talk in which he said that the only way pep could be obtained was thru individualism, each individlllal being a pep organization of his or her owp to answer the call for school spirit. , "Tip" then had some yell for the victorious Bobcats who had just returned from their trip to York, trouncing them 38-18, and the program ended with the Color Song.
CRYSTAL THEATRE
The topic of discussion was centered on geography .and its relation to the social sciences, and whether geography should have a distinct placto or a parallel place with other sociai science cou:rses in ju:nior highs chools. A committee made up of school at the convention was appointed, which is to study the principles and objectives of a unified program. A meeting is to be lleld in February and the) will report then.

HERE ARE THE PROOFS.
You a re n ot too proud to be seen in o ld cloth es, doin g hon e st thoiugh meni a l, work.
You respect age, be it clothed in silk or cotton

Railsback and Majors Are Named on Class B Quintet.
The Class A All-Star team drew P.layer s from the Sabetha, Plafitsmouth and Corning fives. Captain Hatt of Plattsmouth and Buckminster of Corning drew the guard position s. Hatt played a star game for his team. He s ucceeded in holding the Sabetha team to but few field goals. Buckmin s ter of Corning showed great ability in up the opponents' play. In fact, the Corning team a lm ost put out the Sabetha fiv e in the fir st round. Lyons of Sabetha wa s picked for center. He was a' good jumper and s howed exceptional floor work. Reba! of Pl a tts mouth and Kirkland of Sabetha were placed in the forward berths. Th ey have ability to hit the basket and are also good defensive men.

Monrow of DuBois and Young of Adams were picked as the best forwards in Class B. · Monrow played at center but because of his scor ing ability and fast floor work he was "plac ed at forward. Young was the main cog in hi s team, and has a good eye for the basket.

The Offu s Kat seems to be a necessary one for us-the so lution of. this problem of the unusual student which is now being worked out in · nearly a hundred Ame ri can colleges and universities is by no means a duplicate of the English system, but is based upon two principles which are the foundation of Eng li sh s uccess The first is t he distinction between the dents who are r eally interested in the intellectual life and who are not; and the second is the recognition of the necessity of allowing th ese better students more responsibility for working out their own intellectual salvation."

PERU ORATORS ARE. VICTORIO·us
' Win ffC!m Maryville, MissouriRep9A;t a "Haven of Hoe· ':·<;). pitality."
On March 24th the Peru debators went to Maryville, Missouri, and wo11 from the Missouri pedagogues on the child labor question. The last debate of the season ended with this victory for Peru. The decision was 111nanimo us.
Peru had to accommodate itself to Missouri Conference practice, and was therfore represented by a twoman team, composed of Waldo Willhoft and Roy Chamberlain. The main speeches were twelve minutes, and each rebuttal, five minutes. The Pe,i. ru team upheld the negative side of · the. qouestion.
The debate was held at the chapel hour, at 10 o'clock in the morning, before the entire student body, numbering more than eight hundred. Dr. Fred Keller, chairman of the Intercollegiate Relations Committee at Maryville State Teachers college, act·
• ed as chairmn of the debate. Floyd Stevenson of Peru was official timekee,!)er.
No fairer debate was ever staged than that at Maryville. The judges, all attorneys-at-law from Savannah, Missouri, were not informed as to what school upheld the affirmative or ''. negative, until after they had render- t ed their decision. No fairer audience i did the l'erou debaters sp.eak to than r that at Maryville. The applause for the visitors was as loud and long as r for the home team.
After the debate the delegation
·· from Peru was invited to a luncheon
'.• at the college cafeteria. After lunch- f eon President Larkin · escorted the ju,dges and debaters ·.through the "vari; ious new buildings on the Maryville coUege campus., l'he :r.erou representatives repbrt that Maryvile is a havr en. of hospitality' that. the treatment

Experience gained by membership in organizations, by athletic activities, and by associations with fellow students is of as much value to students as is class room work.
One should not neglect to take advantage of any opportunity he may have to active part in the various clubs and organizations on the campus It will be valuable to him. After he h1113 CC?mpleted his course and has gone out into the world to teach or to enter other professions, he will find that the experience gained through participation in these activities will be of unquestionable value.

"It relates mankind to God savingly and satisfyingly, and to one another in joyful fellowship.
"It is the avenue through which men and women walk up the of God".
In order to be more concrete we might consider the matter of church attendance from the angle of "what you get out of it". It is a well-established fact that man needs one dajy in seven for rest of body and mind. In the worship of God, men find a refreshment of mind and heart, and the whole life is toned up for the tasks of the week that lies ahead. By participating in the common worship, we listen to and take part in the reading from the Bible. No man is tru;ly educated who is not familiar with the Bible. Church attendence also affords the privilege of fellowship with some of the best people in the world.
All who attend church regularly are sure to be. personally benefited and their influence for good greatly enlarged. Give the church a chance to help you by attending its services.
The churches· of Peru take this opportunity to cordially invite you to attend their services during your stay among us.
The services of the respective churches are as follows:
Sunday School-9:46 a. m. Baptist and :Methodist
Morning worship-11:00 a. m.

SUMMER BASEBALL
Why not have a baseball team this summer? Prospects for a good, fast, college nine are very bright. Such men as Prof. E. C. Beck, Supt. S. L. Clements, Bob Harrison, Virgil Long, Arthur Majors, Julian Pool, Emil Grunwald, Norman Thorpe, Richard Madden, Charles Madden, "Dud" Clark, and the Cunningham brothers, have played ball for old Peru in the past. There are others, such as: Hilgenfeld, Williams, Collister, Hillard, Naiman, Hanson, Taney, Buettzenbach, Craig, Rothert, Bath, Ashley, Erwin, and Slagle, who we know are baseball players and all they need is a chance. Then there is a wealth of other material which is not known at p'resent, but would be bound to show up· in practice. With the assistance Iof Coach Lon Graf, a winning team , could most certainly be put on the \ field.
