STUDENT VOLUNTEER
CONVENTION WILL BE
HELD IN DE3 MOINES
presenting credential signed by VU
bert D. Smith, exocutlve secretary.
University of Nebraska hus applied
for a larger number of delegates than
It Is entitled to.
Some very ablo speakers will ad
dress the convention at the five eve
ning sessions. They will come from
all parts of the United States und
there will also be several from for
eign countries. ,
A part of each day will be devoted
to a helpful consideration of ques
tions concerning the student volun
teer, the promotion and fostering of
missionary Interests among all stud
ents, the financial problems of mil
slon8. the extension and development
of the student volunteer movement,
the responsibility resting upon the
church at home, ard the challenge to
students, presented by the great for
ward movement within the churches.
One afternoon will be devoted to
simultaneous conferences on the great
fields or China, India, Japan. Africn,
Turkey, and the far east. On another
afternoon there will be conferences
for consideration of various types
of missionary activities, such as med
ical, educational, religious, industrial,
and literary.
Another afternoon will be devoted
to conferences by boards and societies
thus affording the delegates an oppor
tunity to meet the foreign missionary
leaders of their own communions.
Each of these afternoon conferences
will have its own chairman and spe
ciul program.
Special music will be under the di
rection of the association quartette.
Aa txliilit cl literature for promot
ing miwionr.iy intelligence among
students j ml careful selection of
books and pamphlets dealing with the
various mission problems with a staff
of workers will give information re
garding the best reference material
on foreign missions.
The basis of representation is, two
student delegates from each institu
tion, and one additional student dele
gate for each 100 students or fraction
thereof above the first 200 students
matriculated in the Institution. Ev
ery delegate chosen will pay as much
as possible toward his or her own ex
penses. Des Moines has arranged to
accommodate 7,000 delegates, 1,000 of
which will be entertained in private
homes. A personal canvass among
students, faculty, graduates, and
friends of the institution is a pos
sible way for securing funds to meet
expenses of those unable to pay the
full cost of the trip. .
THE GEOGRAPHIC CHILD
The earth outside is like a nut.
And inside full of flame;
They say it's like an orange but
It doesn't look the same.
Geography, Geography, is: such a
pleasant study;
It tells you why the ocean's dry, and
why the desert's muddy;
I study it at morning, and at after
noon, and then
I keep the teacher in so I may study
it again.
The Artie circle is a swing
That teacher makes with chalk
It's not a very pleasant thing
To go there for a walk.
A river is the funniest thing.
That's on the map, I think;
It's something like a piece of string,
And yet it's good to drink.'
The sea is water by the sand,
And very seldom dry;
it looks like bluing water, and
It tastes like when you cry.
A valley is a streak of land
That's something like a trough,
And if you get it on your hand
You have to wash it off.
Why France is buff, and Russia blue
Nobody knows perhaps.
But anyone can see it's true
By looking at the maps.
A mountain is a bumpy hurt.
An isthmus is a path;
An island is a lump of dirt
Surrounded by a bath.
Geography, geography is such a pleas
ant study;
It tells you why the ocean's drv and
why the desert's muddy;
I study it at morning and at after
noon, and then
I keep the teach in. so I may study
it again.
A $50 diamond medal and $50.00 in
gold is the prize in the state oratoical
contest of the Texas Intercollegiate
Prohibition Association. The officers
report that this association will con
tinue the contest, but will turn the
subject matter to prohibition enforce
ment and world prohibition.

First With the New Styles
It is through our doorw:iy that the new styles first
make their appearance in this city, because it is here that Society
Brand Clothes are sold.
At the start of each season men come to us and ask, "What is
Society Brand showing?" When we display these new ideas, as
we are now doing, it's an opportunity you ought not miss.

FOR YOUNG MEN AND MEN WHO STAY YOUNG
These clothes cost a little more, but it costs more to make
them. Each garment is cut by hand. Each tailored by hand in
accordance with most exacting specifications. Thus the style is
in-built. It is not put in with a hot iron. As a result a Society
Brand garment never loses its style and shapeliness.
