NO.ST. LAWRENCE CANCELLED GAME WITH VARSITY. FINAL
CONTEST WITH THIEL THANKSGIVING DAY
There was much disappointment in the Alfred camp when it was learned that St. Lawrence had cancelled the game with the purple and gold grid-;
ders. The snow is so deep in Canton :
that it was impossible to put the field j in shape for the game. As the re-;
suit, St. Lawrence was forced to call j the contest off. Alfred had made great preparations for the St. Law- rence contest as the Northerners have a Rochester and Hobart victory to their credit along with the U. of B.
and St. Stephens scalps.
Many are asking that the Athletic Association try to arrange a post-sea- son game with them, but no doubt the venture will not materialize. A vic- tory over St. Lawrence would firmly place Alfred among the leaders of minor college teams in New York State. That is the reason so many are anxious that the two teams meet this fall.
The final contest of the season comes Thanksgiving Day when the squad journeys to Greenville to meet the Blue and Gold team of Thiel Col- lege. Thiel has a formidable team
this year and has played some re- markable football. Although the Pur- ple and Gold will be somewhat out- weighed the game will be hotly con- tested. Alfred is confident of vic- tory but it will be hard earned. Thiel's record so far this season is as fol- lows:
Thiel 27—Titusville 0 Thiel 0—Allegheny 0 Thiel 13—U. of Buffalo 0 Thiel 0—W. Va .Wesleyan 20 Thiel 19—Duquesne 14 Thiel 0—Geneva 31.
If records show anything Thiel has a slight advantage over us as they i gave U. of B. a 13 to 0 defeat while | we only won from U. of B. by a 7 to 3 score. Geneva defeated Thiel by a 31 to 0 score, and defeated us by a 34 to 0 score.
Alfred will enter the Thiel game in the best possible condition. Mort Fox who was injured in the Buffalo, game, was hurt again in practice last week and will be unable to play in the final game. Stryker, who has been filling his position so credibly, will start the game with the regular eleven.
AG JUNIORS DEFEAT AG FROSH BY 1 3 0 SCORE
With the weather ideal, but with the field heavy and wet with slush, the heavier Junior team defeated the lighter but plucky Frosh team, in a hard fought and hotly contested game, Score 13-0, favor Juniors.
The Juniors bearing the sting of defeat administered to them by the last year's Junior team, took the field with a determination to win the fray and thereby redeem themselves.
Though keen rivalry, urged on by the enthusiasm of the adherents of both sides, existed between both teams, nevertheless the game was played in a clean sportsmanlike manner.
The playing was rather slow with fumbles frequent on both sides, due slightly to the inexperience of the players, but largely to the wet and slippery condition of the field. In spite of the condition of the field, the aerial form of attack was frequently
•resorted to by both sides and with:
fair success.
It must be borne in mind that sev-1 eral of the contestants were playing i their first' game with but very little practice. And with this in mind a I great deal of praise must be given to ! both teams for the fine exhibition dis-1 played.
The 'total score was made in the j first half, both touchdowns being the ! t result of long spectacular runs by:
Marshall and Tuttle around the ends, amid the cheers of their enthusiastic C adherents.'
For the Juniors the playing of Cassi- da, Tuttle and Marshall was very noticeable,- while for the Frosh, that of Childs, Josephson and Monroe was fully as conspicuous. Yet every mem- ber of both teams fought gamely and creditably.
During most of the game, the ball see-sawed back and forth around mid- field, neither side being able to ad- vance the ball very far, due to the frequent fumbles by both sides. As ! the result neither goal was in danger, I both scores being the result of wide,!
long end runs.
The game began by Childs winning the toss and choosing to receive the kick-off and defending the west goal.
The Frosh receiving, carried the ball back to the 45 yard line. After four ; vain but futile attempts the Frosh lost the balfon downs. The Juniors tak- ing the ball, made the first down Jn two tries around right end. On the next down the Juniors fumbled but re-1 ceived the ball, then Marshall the speedy quarter-back skirted left end for twenty yards, here the Frosh de- fense stiffened, the Juniors failing to j make their downs. Frosh taking the ! ball, gained two yards on the first down, but were penalized on the sec- ond for being off side. In the next play the Juniors were penalized for j the ?ame offense. On the fourth j down Childs was forced to punt to the Juniors who ran it back to their forty yard line. Here they fumbled, the Frosh gaining the ball, but failed to make their downs in the next four tries. The quarter ended with the ball in mid-field.
The opening of the second quarter, the Juniors made their first downs in two attempts, Marshall going around left end and Tuttle around right end for considerable gains. For three downs the Frosh held the Juniors to a standstill, when on the fourth down Tuttle broke loose around right end racing thirty yards for the first score.

STUDENT BODY MEETING
Most of the live spirit was ex- tracted from the football rally, held last Thursday evening at the Ag School assembly that St. Lawrence had can- statement that St. Lawrence had can- celled the coming game against A. U.
The cause of the cancellation wa£ a snow-bound field at Canton, nearly two feet of snow having fallen thert. The unanimous opinion of the students at the mass meeting was that the weather man was on St. Lawrence's side, for the snow had saved her team from de- feat.
Chipman led the usual string of cheers and songs, and introduced sev- eral members of the squad who hap- pened to be winners in the famous Brick contest. After Prof. "Jimmy"
had told us that the team would have to save its energy till Thanksgiving Day, Coach Wesbecher gave us his idea of how that Thiel game should result. Geneva licked Thiel about as badly as she beat Alfred, and the one chance to show the Pennsylvanians- how game we are comes Thursday.
No student at A. U. will feel much like thanksgiving unless Thiel is de- feated.
THE WEE PLAYHOUSE There is to be an element of novelty in connection with the coming pro- gram of the Wee Playhouse on De- cember 9th. It is to be a matinee performance beginning at four o'clock.
It is believed that this innovation may help to relieve the congestion of even- ing entertainments in Alfred. Sev- eral of those who are taking part have never appeared before an Alfred audi- ence. Others have been associated with dramatics, sometimes as actors, more often as critics. Each play is being directed by a member of the organization, while at the same time much of the interpretation of the var- ious parts has been left to the indi- dividual actors. The casts of the plays were chosen by informal ballot and the parts allotted without fur- ther discussion.

TEE OF ALFRED UNIVERSITY, NEW YORK CITY
The funeral of Frank Sullivan'Smith, a trustee of Alfred University for the past eighteen years, was held Wednes- i day from his late home in Angelica, j The services were conducted by Dr. i Reid, a missionary from China, and President Davis.
Mr. Smith was elected trustee of Al- fred University in 1902, and has de- voted to the responsibilities of the | office during more than eighteen con- j secutive years, his conscientious,"j thoughtful and mature judgment and his earnest and able service.
In June, 1903, Alfred University con- ferred upon him the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws in recognition of the distinguished public service which Mr. Smith was rendering to the state j and to society at large.
In 1908 Mr. Smith was appointed by the Board of Trustees of Alfred Uni- versity a member of the Board of Man- agers of the New York State School of Agriculture at Alfred University, then recently established by action of the | Legislature.
In his death, Alfred University has J lost an able and faithful trustee, and a staunch and loyal friend.
Mr. Smith, well known corporation lawyer, son of Dr. William Malberry Smith, formerly health officer of the Port of New York and surgeon general during the Civil War, died Monday in his apartment in the Plaza Hotel in New York. He was a descendant of Reuben Smith, one of the founders of the Massachusetts Colony, and of Hans Van Blarcom,. one of the early Dutch settlers in Manhatan. He was born in Granger, N. Y., in 1851.
Mr. Smith was graduated from Yale with the class of 1872 and was a mem- ber of the Alpha Delta Phi fraternity and Wolfs Head. During his legal '•
career he had been identified with !•
many railroad enterprises, beginning I with the Seligman organization of the:
Buffalo, New York & Philadelphia Railroad, which now is a part of the ;
Pennsylvania system, and later with the reorganization of the Sciota Val- ley Railroad, now a part of the Nor- folk & Western; the Richmond & Daa- ville Railroad, now a part of the South- ern Railway system; the Pittsburgh &
Shenango Railroad, now a part of the Bessemer system, and with many min- ing and manufacturing enterprises.
Numbered among his clients at various times were Andrew Carnegie, Collis P, Huntington and E. H. Harriman, in whose interests he made ^several trips abroad.
Mr. Smith was for many years presi- dent of the New York State Board of Law Examiners and had much to do with the high standard of admission to the bar in this state. He was re- ceiver of the Pittsburgh, Shawmut &
Northern Railroad, a director and member of the executive committee of the American Light and Traction Com- pany, a director of the Manhattan Life Insurance Company, a trustee of the Hamilton Trust Company, a trustee of Alfred University and of the New York State School of Agriculture. He was treasurer of the International Institute and was one of the founders of the Japan Society and of the France- America Society.
Mr. Smith was a Republican in poli- tics and had been a former member of the Republican State Committee, of which he was secretary from 1887 to 1891. He was a delegate to the Re- publican National Convention from the time of the nomination of James G.
Blaine until the present year.
Mr. Smith was a member of the American Bar Association, the Bar As- sociation of the State and City of New York, the Society of Medical Juris- prudence, the Order of the Loyal Le- gion, the Sons of the Revolution and the Society of the War of 1812. He also was a member of the University.
Yale, Republican, Engineers and Bar- nard clubs and the Downtown As- sociation of New York.

MOVIES
Jitney Dance Benefit 1922 Kanakadea
I The Athletic Association' movies' drew a record breaking crowd last Sat-:
urday night at Firemens Hall. The ;
feature was Lasky's famous picture
"Huckleberry Finn" from the story by Mark Twain. Huck and his stirring adventures brought roars of laughter from the well-pleased audience.
After the movies, a jitney dance was held for the benefit of the 1922 Kan- akadea. A large crowd remained to j enjoy the music which was furnishedj by "Nell" Ford and "Benny" Volk. Con- i siderable money was realized for the 1922 Annual which will make its ap-!
pearance in March.
REBEKAH FAIR
Listen! Fresh friedcakes and hot coffee will be served after the pro- gram at the Rebekah Fair, Thursday evening, Dec. 2d.
Fancy work, handkerchiefs, blank- ets, quilts, and crocheted rugs will be on sale, at the several booths. Come, and have a good time.
DR. IDE GIVES ASSEMBLY ADDRESS
At the asembly Wednesday morn- ing Professor Ide gave an address on
"The Psychology of Humor." His lec- ture was filled with bits of humor from the popular magazines of the last dozen years. Prof. Ide explained that every race has its own particular type of humor, although every type of humor appeals to the Americans. Every joke that has appeared in American magazines has been told in several hundred different ways. Strange as it may seem he offered proof to show that the majority of the modern jokes originally appeared in the writings of the ancient Romans. In the future our great grand children will perhaps read the same jokes that we have read and our fathers have read when they were boys.
ALUMNI
Mrs. DeForest Truman '19, visited her sister, Mrs. W. G. Saunders '14, at Avon last week.
Mrs. Robert A. Greene, ex-'16, is visiting her mother, Mrs. A. T. Still- man. Mr. Greene '16, is expected hera for the Thanksgiving season.
. Y. S. A. NOTES
The students were treated to a special program last Tuesday morning at chapel when Miss Cheesman gave a short biography on the anniversary of the life of James Whitcomb Riley, the beloved Aberican poet. Especially delightful were we in listening to some of his readings and poems. One j thing can be truly said on behalf of j Miss Cheesman. She can imitate both children and animals in a way that would bring forth laughter from the almost extinct "Injun" model in front of cigar stores.
Junior Banquet
The Juniors held their annual ban- quet at Ag Hall, November 15th, at 8 o'clock. Our highly esteemed Miss Chtesman and Jack Searles acted as chaperons. Aside from the time taken for the "eats" which consisted of fruit salad with cream dressing, cold boiled ham, sandwiches, olives, cake, ice cream and coffee, the evening was spent in dancing and playing games.
One wonderful night! | , i Assembly
The C. L. M. C. A. took charge of the chapel exercises Thursday morn- ing. "Abe" Lincoln acted as their leader, he being president of the Club.
He gave us a short but very interest- ing story, of their work when the Club was first organized and also what they are doing at the present time.
Lloyd Knight did his "bit" by giving us a reading entitled "Mandalay."
Then Zaneta Dibble and Allen Bowen rendered a beautiful vocal duet.
Country Life
We were indeed sorry to see such a small number of Country Life mem- bers out Tuesday evening to hear the musical program so beautifully rend- ered by Mrs. Seidlin, Prof. Wingate and Mr. Volk. It was a rare treat to us and one which will be remembered by all these present. We want them to know that we appreciated the kind- ness shown in giving their time to make our program a success. We were honored too, with a vocal solo from Miss Zaneta Dibble. There was a large number of outsiders present and hope they will come again. Wel- come, one and all.
A Country Life business meeting was held Wednesday morning to re- mind the members of their dues and to appoint someone to put a write-up in the Kaflakadea about our Club. It was decided that this should fall to the secretary of the Club, Stewart Adams. I

"Oh, Cassada! Waddaya doin' now?"
"Not much just now, Jumph, Why?",

"Oh, they're helping me."
Anybody wanting to know anything on any subject at any time or any place, apply to Prof. Nelson, the An.' Hus. for he knows everything. Not.
a slam, Prof, just a compliment.
Prof. Randolph — What! forgotten your pencil again? What would you j think of a soldier who went to war I without a gun?
Orvis—I'd think he was an officer, <
Sir.
A strange noise was detected on ' second floor recently and we dis- I covered it was Wagner and "Abe", Lincoln singing.
Arnold Kessler missed his vocation, j Really a man who is so efficient in j teaching the English language should ' be a college professor.
Curley must have had a ripping time Sunday evening since he needed Mon-1 day morning to recuperate.
Helen—Who's your lucky man?1
Mary please tell the little story con- nected with November 13th.
Hodorf: "Why no, three is enough."
Hillery was initiated to a Grange party and was told not to mask. He looked alright just as he was. We wonder what they meant, Hillery.
Cutie Caward has been spending his vacation at Palm Beach or on the banks of the Kanakadea. What's the difference?
If you eat young onions don't breathe it to a soul, Adams.
You have the head to learn and the heart to sptnd, Jack Searles.
"Swanie" is studying "Emerson" at present. Romantic, isn't it?
We fear Ed Harnes will develop brain fever through the excessive strain produced by deep thinking.
Oh no, Lucile Ewing has not left—
just banished to solitary confinment in a corner by herself.
Sloman says there is no difference between married life and rugby foot- ball.
Jumph says he got all his golf ex- perience in the Gulf of Mexico.
It has been said the reason Cassada is so tall is that his parents were Poles.
Wheeler says as soon as he collects a few more rubber bands he will qualify for Prof. Wingate's Orchestra.
Prepare yourself for this event. We are, in the near future, going to take up a collection for the purpose of pur- chasing for Swanson a hat or cap of some kind to wear in school so he will not muss his hair.

Y. M. C. A.
As school closes Wednesday noon, the regular weekly group meetings will be omitted this week. At the next weekly gathering at each of the four groups—
on Wednesday, Dec. 1—the topic will be "College Friendships." In pre- paration for this discussion the sixth chapter of " Student Standards of Action " should be read by every mem- ber.
Sixty men of the college have bought Y. M. C. A. tickets. The sixty dollars thus gained has been spent thus: $40 for half the net ;ost of the Students' Handbook, $10 for the Y. M's share of the Reception, and $10 as dues to National headquarters. The Y. M. C.
A. wishes to do its share in making Dr.
Beaven's visit to Alfred next month possible. Instead of finding a new way to tax the whole community for the benefit of the Y. M. treasury, every effort will be made to make the college men 100 per cent members.
In the secretary's records there are no owners for tickets 1, 3, 4, 16, 55, 56, 57 and 58. Will the men who hold these numbers kindly advise Clinton Baldwin of the fact, so that the records will be complete ? Every member of the Cabinet has a small supply of tickets numbered from 65 up, which we hope will be sold be fore Dr. Beaven's visit.
At the joint Cabinet -meeting of the Associations, held last Tuesday after- noon in the Y. W. room, no definite decision was reached concerning Al- fred's scholarship fund for Roberts College, Turkey. There is a possibility that instead of a definite scholarship the money will be raised this year for the Friendship Fund, whose motto and aim is " T h e students of America for the students of the world." The drive will probably be planned for early January, while the Christmas spirit of giving is still prevalent.
Other business discussed at the joint meeting was Dr. Beaven's proposed trip to Alfred, and the committee's report on the 1920 Handbook. The Cabinets joined in extending a sincere invitation to the Rochester clergyman for his three days' visit next month.
All who have heard Dr. Beaven will be glad to welcome him to Alfred again.
The report of Robert Clark and Anna Crofoot, the publication committee of this year's Handbook, was accepted unanimously. Thirty-six dollars of the total cost of the books was defrayed by twelve pages of advertisements. With two dollars from the sale of four books, this advertising brought the net cost of the book from its unusually high figure of $118.00 to eighty dollars. The share of each Association is therefore forty dollars. Again we wish to re- mind non-members that the Associa- tion's finances come almostwholly from the sale of tickets.
Ludicrously Low Prices.
From a letter just received in New York from Prague, Czechoslovakia:
"This city is one of the most beau- tiful places I ever saw. And the prices just now, if you have American money, are simply ludicrous. My room at the best hotel cost me 75 cents n day. You can dine at the best res- taurants, with wine thrown in. for 50 to 7"> cents. i just sent out a pair of shoes to he repaired by ;i cobbler, and 'vhnf do you think the profiteer charged? Five conts! And you can go downstairs to the so-cnlled Amer- ican bur and get a champagne cobbler for 25 cents and a Martini cocktail for 15 cents. Just got my week's bill from my hotel. Seven days' lodging and breakfasts—$(>! and it's the best hotel in Prague!"

According to the custom, there will be no issue of the Fiat next week. The next number will appear on December seventh. Watch for it. It will be the football issue.
Wednesday noon will find many of the students departing for their homes to enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday with their parents and relatives. We hope every Fiat Lux reader will have the best time ever and will return Monday with renewed vigor and strength to finish the first term suc- cessfully.
While you are away don't forget that the men on the football squad are sacrificing their Thanksgiving for AJ- fred. There will be no holiday or feast for them until after they have fought and won the hardest game on the schedule. To them do we wish the best of luck. May they return to their Alma Mater victorious.
During the past few weeks there has been rumors and rumors of rumors of gossip going about the campus. We are college men and women and should not credit such underhanded talk. Re- member, talk is cheap but if you can't say anything good of a person
it would be best to say nothing. Per- haps all people are not perfect but take them as they are not as they ought to be. We will grant that some people are better than others, at least they think so, but why run down a person by spreading falsehoods about them? It will not make you any big- ger or more perfect in the eyes of the world.
We would suggest that the Fresh- men read Article II, Section 4, of the Campus Rules. Of late several Fresh- men girls have absolutely refused to play at the movies. The movies are not run by any private enterprise for private gain but by the Athletic As- sociation for the benefit of that or- ganization. All those who assist in
running the movies do so without pay and it is only fair that the Frosh girls do their bit. Former Freshmen classes have lent a willing hand so what is the trouble with '24.
STUDENT SENATE
The sixth regular meeting of the Student Senate was called to order by the President, November 10, 1920. A motion was carried that December 10, 1920, be placed on the College Calendar for Dr. Beavan's meeting with the students.
The seventh-regular meeting of the Student Senate was called to order by the Vice President, November 17, 1920.
The letter granting permission to dance in the Academy on occasions permitted by the Student Life Com- mittee was read. A motion was car- ried that April 21, 1921 be placed on the College Calendar for the Eta Phi Gamma Banquet.
CLASSICAL CLUB ORGANIZED On Thursday the students of the Department of Classics organized a student-club to be called the Agora of Alfred University. Their purpose will be twofold: (1) "Acquiring a wider knowledge and a more sympathetic un- derstanding of the Hellenic and Ro- man civilizations, and (2) making more prevalent the spirit of Classical culture." Plans were discussed for the production of one or more Classical dramas and for the arrangement of a program for the current academic year. The following officers were chosen: Archon Basileus, Ray Witter;
Archons, Anna Crofoot, Hazel Crox- ford, Robert Lyman and Amy Van- Horn. All those interested in the aims of the Agora are requested to present their names at once to one of the Archons.

LE CERCLE FRANCAIS Parles-vons francais? If you do, we would like you to come to our club meetings. "We" are the students, and our Club is to be known as the
"Cercle Francais." It is to meet every other Tuesday, the place of meeting to be decided upon each time and a notice posted on the post office bul- letin board. We make only one con- dition for membership—that from the time you enter until you leave, you speak not one word of English. How- ever, be it understood that a very good time can be indulged in with even a meager supply of French. Our aim is to increase our speaking knowledge of the language and to have a jolly good time in the process. We have elected as officers: Isabel Mack, presi- dent; and Hazel Croxford, secretary and treasurer.
The first meeting, on November 16th, at the home of Frances Gardiner, was entirely social. We tackled the Mar- seillaise with a great deal of enthusi- asm, played "jest" American games in French, told riddles and jokes, listen- ed to one of La Fontaine's fables, and had some "eats." And may we take this opportunity to express our thanks to Miss Landwehr, Professor Mix and Professor Stearns, without whom we could not make things "go." We hope that the program for the next meeting may be still more extensive and interesting. Watch for the notice and come "parlez" with us.

AG JUNIORS DEFEAT AG FROSH
Continued from page one Monroe made a vain attempt to tackle him, but lost his footing. Tuttle kicked the goal. The score was 7-0.
The Frosh received, Monroe carry- ing the ball back to the 34 yard line whereafter two unsuccessful line plunges Childs resorted to a forward pass which was incompleted. On the next down Childs punted to the Juniors, who advanced the ball to their 55 yard line. Juniors failed to make their downs, but recovered on the Frosli's second down by falling on a fumbled ball. Here Marshall on the first down added another spectacular forty yard run around right end.
Tuttle failed to kick the goal. The half ended with a score of 13-0.
In the second half, Childs and Josephson alternated with their ends, playing ends on the defense and in the back field on the offense. And in this manner succeeded in holding the Juniors to no scores in this half.
Frosh kicked off to Church who was downed on his 40 yard line. Juniors failed to make their downs, being tackled for a lose each time. After two unsuccessful downs, the Frosh full-back resorted to two more for- ward passes being incompleted. At this point Petrle substituted for Worden. Frosh failed to make their downs. On the fourth down, with 13 yards to go, Tuttle passed to Cas- sida for a 20 yard gain. A costly fumble gave the ball to the Frosh.
First down resulted in a successful 30 yard pass from Childs to Reedie. On the next attempt, at passing, the ball was intercepted by Tuttle, who ran it back 25 yards. After advancing the ball yards in three tries, they fumbled on the fourth down, Frosh getting possession of the ball. Petrie made 3 yards on the first down. End of the third quarter.
Frosh in possession of the ball on their 43 yard line, Childs through left tackle for 6 yards, but lost six in at- tempting to execute a forward pass.
After two more unsuccessful tries they lost on downs. Juniors took the ball but failed to make their downs. Frosh also unsuccessful, being penalized 5 yards for being off side. On the fourth down with 8 yards to go, Tuttle makes twenty yard pass to Cassada, who was downed in his tracks. After making five more yards through the lines, Tuttle shot another forward to Smith for a gain of fifteen yards.

I now must discourse on the jazz, A subtle lure the darned thing has And all the lizards haunt the spot Where the jazz-band bunch is going
hot.
Jazz used to be the name for noise, But now the high-life girls and boys Have gotten some new sort of prance And jazz is now a reckless dance.
Last night I made a social call And we hied ourselves to Frisk-foot
Hall,
We thot to skate around the floor Amidst sweet sounds of Terpichore.
I busted in with my lady fair And found the jazz hounds gathered
tBere,
All trying hard with one intent To show that jazz was their natural
bent.
Me and my dame looked on aghast;
Just then a couple passed, It took just a passing slant To see a part predominant.
With a saddened heart and tearful eye I slowly turned to lamp the guy, And heard my female side-kick say
"I wonder how he got that way?"
This jazz things got him in its grip, You hear his tight-stretched trousers And other things are on the rend rip, As he does a risky Grecian bend.
One fellow steers a winding course And. capers like a playful horse, His partner diesn't seem to mind—
She likes the wreckage left behind.
Some fellow with spats and watch- weighed wrist,
Will pull a unique ankle twist And then he'll shoot his other leg And initiate a scrambled egg.
Some day a youthful reprobate, His spinal cord will dislocate And this will end his dancing days, But will it end this jazzing craze?
Just then my' damsel softly moaned,
"Let's leave this awful place," she groaned;
And shut her eyes from the ghastly sight,
We passed out in the silent night.
MINISTERS' MEETING
On Monday the Ministers' Associ- ation of Hornell and Vicinity was the guest of Dean Main. Rev. Mr. Wilkins of Arkport, was chairman, and Rev.
Mr. Walker of Almond, was secretary pro tem. Rev. Mr. Magill of Canisteo, read an interesting paper on "Scraps."
The subject seems to have been chosen because the paper was not intended to be a unit. He discussed with clear- ness and force such subjects as physi- cal health and strength; individual, social, economic and political prob- lems; and the question of ultimate authority in the realm of religion and morals. Fifteen persons were in at- tendance. The members of the As- sociation dined at the home of Dean and Mrs. Main.
