Every Meeting Draws Large Crowd. , In the past week there was cen tered in our midst a movement, the intensity of which is apparent in every educational institution within the boundaries of this country, and one which has been highly endorsed and supported by the prominent men of the larger cities. We were so fortunate as to be able to listen to some of the greatest character builders of the present day, and in individual and group meetings to profit by their wise counsel and advice. On Tuesday evening "Ted” Mercer spoke to the Campaign Committee, after which a reception was held at the Welch Cottage. On Wednesday evening, in the Auditorium, Mr. Mercer gave a most fascinating and thrilling des cription of his life, and establishing it as an example of the vicissitudes that a man is liable to incur in his career, pointed out the absolute es sentials, and the things to be avoid ed, in order to live a good, clean, healthy life. Mr. Mercer again addressed a .large._asssmb!age~of—• students- on Thursday evening. His strong, vivid speech, which concerned it self with the building of character, was keenly appreciated by every fair minded man present. His definition of "the quitter” must surely have made a lasting impres sion upon many. The address that Dr. Wright of Yale gave on Friday is one that clearly evidenced the high and noble ideals of a man, who has reformed many, and who has kept many from falling into the chasm of immorality. Dr. Wright concerned himself with the essentials and re quisites necessary to a man, so as to enable him to call himself a Chris tian. Mrs. Huston of Coatesville, one of the most sincere friends of Penn State, spoke breifly to the students on Saturday evening. All those who knew him, had looked forward with anticipation, to the address of our good friend “Dad” Elliot. He spoke as serious ly as in the past —he impressed one fact of vital importance on those present and that ran, "Life is not worth living without some aim in view”. “Dad” also defined a strong man, as one who would stand by his convictions. Both Mr. Huston and Mr. Elliot spoke seriously at the Sunday Chapel exersizes. On Sunday aft ernoon various 'meetings were held by the speakers: in the Old Chapel in the Auditorium, and in the Amphitheatre. The value o' these ■ addresses to individuals, and the worth of the in terviews, can hardly be estimated. The good efftcts. of the work car ried on by these men, will not make themsilves apparent in a week, or moith, but will have a lasting influeme in the lives of a large number of college men. Their straightforward appeals, their manliness, aid their unselfishness, must have teen appreciated by all Tfie Royal Union Mutual of Des Moines, lowa Has never lost a dollar either in principal or interest. Its policies are protected by a deposit with the state. They have made the best settlements ever made by any insur- ance company. They have the lowest participating premiums. They earn more money on their invested funds than any other company doing business in Pennsylvania. the men of Penn Sta'e, and every man must be possessed of the desire to see them again next year. We are sure of expressing the sentiment of the students of Penn State when we say: —That we wish increasing success to “The Men and Religion Forward Movement,” and to its admirable promoters. Sophomores Head the League. loan interesting; game of basket ball the sophomores won an easy victory over the freshmen by the score of 30 to 19 on Wednesday night, Jan. 31. The “sophs” with good team work and the excellent individual work of Captain Binder and Savery were able to keep a comfortable lead throughout the entire contest, although the freshmen put up a scrappy fight. The first half ended 24 to 8 in favor of 1914. A slight increase in attendance was noticed—due to the efforts of the upperclassmen. The. fact that the interclass games are attended by so very few freshmen may ac count for the poor showing of their team of late. The members of the 1915 class should come out especial ly strong since their team naturally needs much more support and class spirit to aid them than the other teams. The line up of the game follows: 1915 f Zimmerman Leyden (Moore) f Savery c Quirk (Junkin) g Warr g Field goals—Binder 4, Leyden 2, Savery 6, Quirk 3, Crawford 6, Walton 2, Spangler. Foul goals—Crawford. Referee—Murphy T 3. The Wrestling Schedule.
