The debat | ers were the boys who are to represent the school in the debate with Ashburn. j The practice that they thus gain in | debating will be of great help to them. ' The subject of the debate was “Re ’ solved. That the Good Effects of the - Present War Will Outweigh the Loss of Life and Property Incurred During Its Progress.” The judges rendered their decision in favor of the negative side. The debaters were to debate the same quetion they will debate with Ashburn, but on account of lack of preparation it was postponed. To morrow afternoon the young Ciceros will have it out. The subject of the lebate is, “Resolved, That Capital Pun ishment Should Be Abolished.” Louis Morgan and Wilmot Littlejohn will champion the affirmative while Cliff Wheatley and Frank Harrold will de fend the negative. The debate will be the main feature of the program. There will be a few ( selections of music spliced in between the speeches to break the monotony. ( All patrons and friends of the school are invited to attend. As the boys are | going to say the same speeches as in ! the big debate the program will be j quite interesting. The exercises begin \ at one o’clock tomorrow afternoon. Be on hand and encourage the young ora tors; the larger the audience the bel ter they like it. o o o A CORRECTION Owing to a mistake in checking up the sale of tickets, the second prize n the ticket-selling contest was award ed to the wrong persons. The mana ger of the Cracker Boy Minstrel show offered two prizes to the girls selling the most tickets. The first prize was a two dollar and a half gold piece, won by Miss Ruth McArthur. The second prize was a dollar gold piece, won bv Miss Sarah Mathhews. On account of the fact that a dollar gold piece was unavailable, a silver cart wheel was THE AMERICUS DAILT TIMES RECORDER ;iven insted. o o o READY WRITERS’ CONTEST In order to select pupils to repre sent the High School at the district meet to be held in Vienna this year, a preliinary contest was held last Tues day.

They will have to write on subjects taken from “The Mer j chant of Venice,” “Washington’s Fare well Address, or Mac-auley's “Life of Johnson.” i 0 0 0 I TRACK WORK PROGRESSING, i The boys are doing fine work prac j tieing for the track events that they i will enter at the High School meet. The High School has some excellent material and prospects for a winning team this year are good. Ansley and McGillis are jumping all around the five-foot mark. Bell and Webb are put ting the shot around the thirty-five foot mark. Heber Rees is learning to get over the hurdles in fine form. The rest of the team, Louis Morgan, Willi© McNeill, Vause Hearon, Otis Carter and Robert Lane, are doing good work in the other events. Linn Bell has been elected captain of the track team for this year. With Capt. B< .’I looking after them, and wild the I'tflclen: coaching of Prof. Lambert, tee toys will show ’em that Aruericus <i> roll on the map and a-spreading, too. |o o o PICTURE TAKING ABOUT OVER. For the past few weeks McKlnstry’s studio has been a scene of much snap ping. Practically all of the necessary pictures for the annual have been made. Ali of the seniors have had their beauty struck for their individ ual cuts in the annual. The teachers have had theirs made too. We haven't heard of any catastrophe to plates as yet, and Mr. McKinstry won’t tell us how he got around it, but we have our own ideas about the subject just the same. We have scored Mr. McKinstry one for “rubbering”. To make you lie, people try, Thou little pretending box. You lie and falsify Yet no one ever knocks. About your friend you'll falsify. Yet he fain would be your debtor. He doesn’t mind it when you lie, For ’tis always for the better. 11l I PRIVATE CAR < ALICE NEILSON, I'll 111 A DO\NA SO IMIAXO, WILL TRAVEL TO ALL CHAUTArQI’A BATES It has just been announced by the Redpath Chautauqua management that Alice Neilsen, prima donna soprano of the Metropolitan and Boston Opera companies, who is to appear on our forthcoming Chautauqua, program, is to travel to all her Chautauqua dates this season in her private car, accom panied by assisting artists.
