CAP'S BOYS BEGIN INTENSIVE TRAINING
Graduate of H. P. C.
Conducts Revival
At Coggin Avenue
Singleton Remembered
Because of Work
Done in Past.
Rev. L. S. Richardson graduate of
Howard Payne with the class of 1925
is conducting a revival at Coggin
Avenue Baptist Church during this
week and next. The graduate is pas-
tor of the Central Baptist Church of
Houston Texas. Since his graduation
he has pastored three churches. He
went from Howard Payne to Goldth-
waite. From there he went to Robs-
town and on to the present pastorate.
The most remembered thing about
the pastor's work while he was in
Howard Payne was the revival which
he held in his senior year. He was
chosen by his classmates to conduct
the annual college revival and ac-
cording to all reports he conducted
perhaps the most successful revival
ever held in the college.
Rev. Singleton will probably speak
in chapel this morning as a guest of
the B. S. U. All students are invited
to attend all services at the Coggin
Avenue Church and are expected to
take a large part in the meeting.
MRS.
UNDERWOOD
A8KED FOR POEM
Mrs. Charlene B. Underwood has
been asked to contribute a poem to
"An Anthology of Best Magazine
Verse" which is being published by a
New York Publishing Company. The
poem asked for was "This Jealousy"
which was published in the Lantern
a Magazine of Poetry.
Mrs. Underwood sent the company
permission to publish her work. This
is one of many requests that the com-
poser receives quite often.
EAGLE SCOUTS HELP RED CROSS
All the Eagle Scouts in the school
with the possible exception of one as-
sisted in unloading a car of flour for
the Red Cross Organization of this
city. Several other students helped
in the work.
Peanut Band Is
Reorganized For
Spring Session
Members of the Peanut Band met
Wednesday morning after chapel and
organized for the last term. Joe
Drake a sophomore was elected bus-
iness manager. The group has not
been as active this year as they have
in the past and the re -organization is
expected to help the band attain the
usual rate of program music.
Students enrolled as members of
the band are: Glynn Raley Joe Drake
Marion and Baron Smith Joe Paul
Floyd Hamiter Roberts Moser Walk-
er Arthur Johnson and Jack Adams.
These men play a variety of instru-
ments and are especially strong on
the bass section.
Plans have been made for the
group to play at several chapel pro-
grams and also for a negro minstrel
which is to be held during the last
months of the school year. When
suggestions for chapel programs were
made the Peanut Band rated with the
Four Leaf Clover Ensemble.
CAPONSACCH TO BE PRESENTED
The play by Robert Browning call-
ed "Caponsacchl" will be dramatized
by Walter Hampden in Central High
School Auditorium Fort Worth Mar.
16. Hampden is well known as per-
haps the greatest player of Hamlett
since Edwin Booth.
Last year Hampden played the part
of Cyrano de Bergerac in the play by
that name. He never reduces his
plays after he leaves New York so
any person who has a chance to see
him as Caponsacchl will be glad to
avail themselves of the opportunity.

(By Roy C. Ramsour)
In the early part of 1914 something broke loose in Europe that had been boiling like a giant
volcano since the Franco-Prussian war. Although it had been anticipated by the leaders of great
nations for a long time it broke with almost the suddeness of a volcano. Germany had broken faith
with the world when she sent armed men into neutral Belgium. German soldiers began to pour into
Belgium on their way to France and Paris. France rushed men to the front. England soon joined
and rushed men over. Nation after nation in quick succession joined one side or the other in what
was to be the worst war in the history of the world.
One year of fierce fighting took place. Men were killed by the thousands. Women and child
ren were made homeless. Many of them starved. Many of the men were captured and carried off
to harsh. prisoncamps where they were ill treated and their health was broken.
Another year of fierce fighting wore on. Men were killed by the thousands. Boys at the age of
eighteen and nineteen were being used to fill the gaps left vacant by their fathers or brothers. Wo
men and children starved and labored for their country.
Still another year wore by. Men were killed by the thousands. Prison camps became crowd
ed ine treatment Became more
Who was left to take the place of the fallen ones? Boys yes boys their ages ranging from fifteen
upwards to twenty perhaps. They were all that was left to fill the gap but they marched like
heroes into the very jaws of death. They fought like men.
Then the scene changes for a moment. The United States saw that she must do something.
The great man leading the nation Woodrow Wilson said that we must save the world for demo-
cracy. The boys in khaki allied to the cause and over the seas they went. They were to fill the
gaps left by the "boys" of Europe. The fighting was soon over. The allied nations had won but
after every war their is a result. "What are the results of this great struggle to be?" every one
asked.
Europe began to rebuild the ruins brought about by the four years of fierce fighting. She
had lost untold millions of dollars in money and property but she began to build as heroically as
she had fought. She is still building and still paying for the selfish desires of a few people.
You say "Wait a minute; you talk as if the United States did not lose anything." Well yes
we lost thousands of men and millions of dollars in the struggle. We were the least paid of all the
rest of the contestants but the men that left America were all above eighteen and the greater part of
them above twenty-five. Sure it was a heavy loss. The boys in khaki immortalized themselves by
heroism. We still feel the loss and will continue to feel it for a long time. (Continued on page 2)

resent Districts 13 and 18 in the State

Several Letter
Men Report For
Daily Workout
Wildcats Have Several
T. I. A. A. Stars; Mile
Man in S. U.
The Jacket track team under the
direction of Coach Shelton will begin
intensive training this week for the
coming season. There are several
lettermen on hand and prospects for
a winning team are fairly good.
Among the lettermen on hand are
Underwood hurdles; Wheeler quar-
ter and half miler; Bragg half mller;
Schuhman quarter and relay; Gil-
liam distance; Dean distince; Masur
field events. There are several men
from last years Frosh team that may
develop into good preformers. Terry
a sprinter should go good. Keeling
a quarter man looks good in early
practice. The Jacket relay team that
won the conference last season lost
only one man thru graduation and
they should go good again this sea-
son. Hutchinson another letterman
is a fair sprinter and broad jumper.
The bulk of the competition for the
Jackets will probably come from
Abilene Christian College. The Wild
cats were track champions of the T.'
I. A. A. for four consecutive years.
They lost several men thru graduation
last spring but Coach Weems of the
Cats will have a good squad on the
field this spring. In Worth Watkins
the Chrtsians have a high jumper that
has done 6 ft. 5 inches. In Simmons
they have a record holder of the mile
run in the T. I. A. A. He runs the
distance around 4 minutes and 30
seconds consistently. Lawrence a
hurdler is also a T. I. A. A. record
holder. The strength of the other
conference members cannto be fore-
told at tills early date. With the ad-
dition of the several new members to
the conference it looks as if there
would be plenty of competition for the
favored class.
Dr. I. B. Vacum
Assisted by Herr
Tonic in "All Wet"!
A program for the Oil Belt Educa
tional Meeting has been received.
Among other parts on the program is
a number headed "Stunt Chemistry!
Lecture "All Wet" presented by Dr.
I. B. Vacuum assisted by 'Herr Tonic'
Below the number the program states
that the Howard Payne College
Science Department is in charge of
the presentation.
Prof. O. E. Winebrenner better
known as the eminent German doctor
Dr. I. B. Vacuum will be in charge
of the program. He will be assisted
by the noted Herr Tonic also a Ger-
man philosopher.
The program "All Wet" has been
presented in several of the schools of
this district and it is assumed that
the Educational Meeting will get as
much kick out of the lecture as the
rest of the educational societies.
