Lyceum entertainments, found a
large and expectant audience assembled.
The program was rendered as

It seemed that ill fortune had
determined against the giving of
i this concert, aad it was because
1 of illness among several members
of the club that the date had
been postponed from the previous
Friday evening. Within the following week two of the members
were rendered unable to sing, Mr.
Pelot by a painful injury at base
ball practice and Mr. Cramer by
illness. These places, however.
were filled by other trained v< ice8
and a very entertaining program
was rendered.
The two instrumental numbers
rendered by the Misses Hamlin
and Fuller at the piano and Prof.
Morse at the organ were very
pleasing and showed much ability.
It is hardly necessary to say how
thoroughly the audience enjoyed
the solos I'y Rev. Gray, for his |
singing is always looked forward]
to with pleasure. Mr. Webb Hill
sang twice and met with the usual
warm welcome from his audience.
The Club is to be praised not]
only for the delightful evening]
but as well for the resolution with ]
which they met the obstacles to]
success.

Vesper Service.
'Self-denial" was the theme of
Dr. Hulley's discourse at last
Sunday's vesper service. It was
a very clear exposition of the
seeming paradox of Christianity
that life lost for Christ's sake ii-
found. In substance Dr. Hulley
said that self-denial is a good or
bad thing depending upon the
motive for which it is exercised.
Some forms of self-denial such as
those practiced by misers or over-
enthusiastic athletes and students
are merely modified forms of selfishness, but the true Christian
type of self-denial is that suffered
for others. In his address Dr.
Hulley closely allied self-denial
and service. They must both be
borne with the proper spirit.
"Service," our president said,
"is not incidental, but absolutely
fundamental to Christianity."
The musical features of the service also were rich and varied.
Two selections were rendered by
the Ladies' Chorus and one by
the Male Chorus. Besides this, a
male quartet of exquisitely blended voices furnished an item in the
order of exercises which was
greatly appreciated by the audience.
First Team.
Capt. Campbell led ten of hia
doughty athletes down to the
tailor's Saturday and had them
measured for their new suits.
The Stetson nine is to be tl e best
looking team on the College Diamond this year, and we prophesy
that "pretty does as pretty
is." The ten men indued six
>kS" men: Campbell, Pelot, Mickle, Tilden, Kirby and Hamlin,
Of the other four, Haselton was
a sub. last year, while Pounds,
Hunter and Allen are playing
with Stetson their first season.
Besides these ten, some three or
four others will be added to the
first squad. These will probably
t>e Jones, Willard and Parsons.
Mr. Pelot's injury has weakened
the pitching staff temporarily,
but the prospects are that the
team will be in good shape for the
first same.
Second Team Organize.
Saturday afternoon a meeting
was held in Stetson Hall to organize a second Baseball team.
Robinson was chosen Captain and
Cotton manger. All baseball men
in school who do not play on the
first nine will train for places on
the second nine. A series of
games will be arranged by Manager Colton, and the second team
calls for the loyal support of the
^school as strongly as does the
Varsity nine. The men who work
to make possible a strong College
team, yet fail to win personal
prominence, deserve the best
treatment and may expect it at
Stetson.

Basket Ball.

'the girls' Basket Ball team, has re„
