M. 0 . L. CONTEST FRIDAY MARCH 2

HILLSDALE COLEGE TO EN-TERTAIN

ENTERTAINMENT AND AFTER-NOON TEA PLANNED FOR

ALL WHO ATTEND

Hope's Representatives in the Race for First Places

Another day or two and Hope's orators will be on the march to Hills-dale to compete in the M. 0 . L. Con-test. Our representatives are full of pep and they are going with a deter-

• mination to win. "Nothing short of the highest honors for our Alma Mater" is their motto. Let us too, accept this motto and back our ora-tors with that spirit which is typical of Hope.

With an oration of undoubted pow-er and specific directness, Nelle Kole will represent Hope in the M. 0 . L. Contest next Friday afternoon. Coach-ed consistently by Dr. Nykerk, ac-companied by her friends, supported by the student body, we believe she will represent us in the Spirt of Hope, that she will be a credit to her coach and her school, and a compliment to her opponents.

Dr. Nykerk has said of her, "There is every reason to believe that Miss Kole will be one of the strongest candidates for first honors Hope Col-lege ever had. We may well be proud of what she has done and of what she will do. Her delivery and address have improved greatly since last year. Her stage presence is re-markable and she has done thorough and excellent work. Most important of all, whatever she may say, she says from the depths of her convic-tion."

Nelle, you know, comes from Fre-mont. In 'her Freshman year a t high school she placed a second, in her Sophomore year, she placed a first in declamation, and in her Junior year she placed first in oratory. The same has happened during her col-lege course. She placed second as a Freshman, first as a Sophomore, and now, in her Junior year, the first place in the state contest is due. History will again repeat itself, as someone has facetiously remarked.

"If work makes for success. Si will win," Nelle said of her colleague. That is Hie spirit in which both our orators are entering the contest this year. They leave Thursday to fight a battle royal. We place our stand-ard, once again, in our orators' hands, believing that the Orange and Blue will wave the more proudly in the contest because of the noble standard bearers.

J

"Secret Service" a Great Success.

The booming of cannon, the clear bugle call, the measured tramp of the boys in gray, all carried us back to the days of '65. For three successive nights Hope's dramatic talent managed to create a most ef-fective amosphere for one of tho best plays yet presented on the Carnegie platform. We were trans-ported to gay old Virginia, not so gay now with the war-clouds above it, and lived thru tense moments while we say unraveled the age-old story of the strain and pathos that come when love and honor clash.

"Secret Service" is a strong play in itself, and the large caste inter-preted it in a most acceptable fashion. There is action and com-pelling interest from the moment that the curtain rises. The Varney family in old Richmond is in the very midst of the tragedy of war. Young Varney begs to join his comrades on the firing-line, whilo charming Edith is showing a well warranted interest in the fortunes of a certain Captain Thorne. Jus t before the last farewells, the Con-federate Secret Service agent, Ben-ton Arrelsford throws the househoU into confusion by charging young Thorne with being a Northern spy. There are gripping moments and masterly acting thruout. Young Varney kisses his Mother farewell and proudly answers the call to arms. In the struggle sc^n* Thome's brother, escaped from Lib-hy prison, wounds Himself rather

HOPE TO MEET MICH. CITY "Y"

Two Fas t and Interesting Home Games in Store for Hopeites

This Week

ANCHOR STAFF NOMINATIONS

On Friday night March 2, the Hope team will meet the strong Michigan City Y. M. C. A. team, who defeated them earlier in the season by a 34 to 28 score. This team, playing some of the best teams in the west, has won 15 out of 19 games played this season. The game Friday night is sure to be one of the hardest fought battles on the college court this year.

NOTICE,

The Hope—Grand Rapids "Y" game which was to take place to-night, has been called off, due to a misunderstanding of the two man-agers regarding the date. No game tonight.

mA r " k

NELLIE KOLE.

Mr. Simon Heemstra of Monroe, South Dakota, will represent Hope in the men's contest. "Si" has always been keenly interested in oratory and debating. While still a Sophomore in Monroe High School "Si" competed successfully in three oratorical con-tests. He took second place in the state contest and was offered a schol-arship at Yankton College. He knew, however, that his ambitions for ora-tory would never be satisfied if he went to Yankton. Hope's enviable record in Oratory and Debating at-tracted him. Mr. Heemstra spent the last two years of his secondary train-ing at the Academy at Orange City, Iowa. Here, too, he won distinctions in forensic. In-his Junior year he was a member of the Academy de-bating team. During the same year he captured first place in the declam-atory contest. In his Senior year he walked away with (first honors in oratory. At Hope again "Si" start-ed out with the ambition to become a members of the college debating team and the greater ambition of be-coming college orator. In his Fresh-man year he took third place iiL the Raven Contest. • As a Sophomore he won in that contest and became col-lege orator for this year. He also succeeded in winning a place on the College Debating Tam and helped to uphold Hope's honors against Alma last Friday night, when Hope's team downed Alma by a 2 to 1 count.

Mr. Heemstra is characterized, as one rf those men who, with an ideal before them, never grow weary until 'he ideal has been attained. Such is his spirit for the coming contest. Dr. Mykeik is much enthused over the sue ess of "Si's" training. Are we as enthusiastic as our representatives and their coach? Let's show our pep and make Glory Day a reality! "We can win if we will"—Coue

The Michigan City aggregation has in Tom Estes a forward who stars despite the fact that he is a cripple.

This game will probably be the last home game of the season. Every-body out with the old Hope pep.

Tom Estes, tho a cripple having one leg badly shortened, is a s tar forward of the Michigan City_Y. M. C. A., who play here Friday night. Be-sides being a great basketball player he is city champion tennis player, a wonderful swimmer, an excellent base-ball player and has cleared the bar for 5ft . 3% inches in the high jump.

—o—*• Wednesday afternoon the girls

again met in the reception room of the dormitory to spend an hour with each other. And a pleasant and inspirational hour it is indeed! Mar-garet Trompen and Cornelia Osse-waarde led on the subject "The Mount of Vision". They showed us the difference in the lives of those men and women who have a vision and those who have not. All through the ages, those men who have ibecome great, have had some vision before them. If we wish to attain to any degree of greatness; if we wish to make our lives count for something, we, too, must have a vision, a vision of Christ, who died on the cross for us. Let us begin now and have that vision of Christ before us always, so that we may give it to others, that they, too, may enjoy - a greater happiness and k greater joy in life.

Once more the time has come when all College organizations are busily planning the best way in which to hand the reins of govern-ment over to a new administration. Election time is a very important period, indeed(f if you realize what it means. The success of "The Anchor" and the policy of the paper for the ensuing year depends upon the members of the Staff which you will # put into office. Society pride and prejudice cannot be taken into account. Put into of-fice the person who is most capable, not the one who is the most popular.

The 'list of nominees will be posted on the bulletin boards for two weeks, and will also be pub-lished in "The Anchor". That will give the student body a good op-* portunity to look over the can-didates and to decide whom they want to represent them next year. "The Anchor" goes all over the World, as the mailing list will show. Therefore we .must have our best talent and the true Hope Spirit represented in it. Think carefully and choose wisely.

Friday evening, Feb. 23, one of Hope's debating teams, composed of Simon Heemstra, Jer ry De Vries and Harvey De Weerd upholding the affirmative side of the question, "Resolved that the United States, should immediately enter the League of Nations" met and outpointed the strong team of the negative from Alma, represented by Ronald Hnrris, Stuart Pra t t and Russell Wilson.

Hope expected strong opposition and was not disappointed as the two to one decision shows. Alma's men came over with the sting of last year's defeat still rankling in their memories. They had planned to win —but in vain.

Alma had three men who under-stood the question and who earnest-ly endeavored to convince the audience and judges that their argu-ments were sound and true. They were very pleasing in both manner and appearance.

Our men acquitted themselves well in both constructive argument and rebuttal. Heemstra, in opening the debate, outlined the question in a concise and forceful manner. His points of contention were well

taken. De Vries, as second speaker in the affirmative and as last speaker in the rebuttal, carred the part of the debate successfully. De Weerd was before us, not only to convince but also to please. He upset his opponents and caused the audience to have attentive ears, by his harm-less sarcasm and ready wit. His arguments were strong and clear cut.

The judges of the„ debate were Mr. (Hawley of Zeeland, Mr. Ponity of Allegan, and Mr. Weis of Kala-mazoo. •

Prof. Egbert Winter, head of the department of Education, acted as chairman of the evening.

Our men are much encouraged and now feel that the weeks of hard work they have put in have not been spent uselessly.

. The attendance was good but it should have been better. Let's not forget our ^debaters and orators. Give them the support they deserve. Hope has always held high its ban-ner of literary prowers, shall we let it be lowered?—By no means!

The clever Thorne wins out with his message, only to be baffled by his honor as shown him by the woman he loves. AJ^ain, under sentence to be shot, he asser ts his manhood and re fuses to be saved by any dishonorable means.

The good ship De Young and Raymond Zwemer we Delphi of the Grea t Anchored Fleet owed several most delightful scenes, set sail on Sa tu rday n^ght, Febru-The acting of the large support ing a ry the seventeenth, f r o m port Voor-caste was uniformly good and helped hees. Due to cloudless skies, well-

charted seas, and facil i tated cross-continent tours, the par ty travelled well. The trip was personally con-ducted, and the plentitude of life-savers dispatched all fears . ' No other short cruise ever offered so much in variety, interest, and in-cluded features.

The minute the gang-plank was raised, we steamed fo r th f rom the harbor, pledging allegiance, what-ever came, to our flag and our coun-t ry . Soon we heard the sirens of

Hawaii f rom a distance, and it

was only the singing of our own crew in "Wake, Miss Lindy", t ha t saved us f rom delay there to steer a course due west to India, where votaries worshipped and priests chanted their way to a bet ter land. Then on to Spain, the land of the serenade we went, then back to Pal-estine where a t a well .in the burn-ing sands Rebecca drew water , and date palms lent he r shade; then to China, where Suki Tong made tea while incense burned and gongs re-sounded. Then oh! f o r a hand to carve Grecian fr iezes, we thot. Oh fo r a Highland laddie to roam with, and the good old Highland Fling.

Cleopatra, f rom her Egypt ian throne sent her minions of sugar-coated niggers to keep us company. The Nethei lands where the wind-mills went round and round and round, where tulips were blooming in gardens for two, sent us pepper-mints. r Then the paddles of our ship splashed and splurged again and the Venetian Love Song drew us to the land where Jul ie t let fall a rose fo r her Romeo. Then "Home again! Home again! Home again", we cried and the beams of the torch of the Statue of Liberty shone over the waves and beckoned us back to the U. S. A.

We were glad the ship was safely anchored in home waters . We were pleased with our new acquaintances, and we expressed our desire of continuing those acquaintances on the other side of the g a n g plank, outside of the S. S. Delphi perhaps, but cer-tainly in the grea te r interest of the Great Anchored Fleet.

"Best Paid Hard Work in the World

IS the way a JOHN HANCOCK salesman described his work. He is a college graduate and in five years has put himself at the very top of his business. % .

He never yet has called upon a prospect without a previous appointment. The best life insurance salesmen today work on that plan, making it a bust' ness of dignity, such as any worthy and ambitious college graduate can find satisfying to his mental needs, and highly remunerative as well.

The man above quoted is the John Hancocks youngest general agent. This shows what college

Graduates of the right type can do in this business, ow they can build up earning power and at the

same time provide for an accumulated competence for the years to come.

Graduation is a vital period in your life and you are liable to hold to the business you start in. It would be well before making a definite decision to inquire into life insurance as a career. Address, "Agency Department."
