These two debating teams are the
winners in the whole series of state
high school debates; Oregon City
having won four debates and Pen
dleton three. Pendleton lasted to
the finals six years ago, but this is
the first time that Oregon City has
been in them.
The winning team will be present
ed with the debating league cup,
which was given to the high school
debating league last year, by Prof.
E. E. He Cou and the Haurean so

the North Bend high school, but it
must be won three successive times
by a singld high school before it be
comes a permanent possession.
Supt. R. W. Kirk, of Corvallis,
president of the high school debat
ing league, will preside Thursday.
The judges will be chosen from the
citizens of Eugene or from the mem

The debating league was started
about seven years ago by Prof. De
Cou and now about 33 four-year
schools in the state are members.
The finals have always been held at
the University of Oregon.
Next year there will be but one
question through the preliminaries,
semi-finals, and finals, instead of
having questions for each district
and a new question for the semi
finals and the finals. A questionaire
has been sent out to the state high*
schools to ask their judgment on a
list of questions for next year.

Spirituality is Theme of Talk
Given Women By English
Lit. Teacher
“The Need of Christian Spiritual
ity Among College Women” was the
theme of Miss Mary Watson’s talk
to the Young Woman’s Christian As
sociation Monday afternoon.
“Spirituality is that development
of the mind which pertains to the
moral feelings.” defined Miss Wat
son. “Morals are our own habits
and customs. Moral feelings are the
forces behind our actions. Why cul
tivate the emotions and powers of
the will which govern our conduct.
Because this like any intellectual
faculty grows with development and
will not come as an accident any
: more than intellectuality.”
The next meeting, the last one of
the year, will be addressed by Mrs.
E. E. De Cou whose subject will be
“Women and Customs of South Af
rica.” The Advisory Board is to be
