the Presbyterian church Sunday
morrilng - for the Thanksgiving ser
vice and in the evening the house
was packtd to hear the fourth ser
mon on "How the Gospel Came, to
Rome." The solo by Mr.; Otto

to his usual high standard, and the
beautiful solo sung by Miss Span
gler in the evening was much en
ioyed by ail. . The ladies' quartett

one Sunday evening each mopth
especially to music. :
The strong OAC football team
will play the big eleven represent
ing the University of Washington

score does not signify they are su
perior to the OAC team. Oregon
had a hard time defeating Wil
lamette when OAC had a walk
oyer. The outcome of the Seatt
game will be awaited with interest.
It is thought by those who; saw
Friday's game that OAC will make
a good showing in the Northern
town, uau unaouDtediy nas a
stronger team than at any other
previous time this season. In Dol-
an and Walker they can boast: of
the best tackles in the Nortwest.
It the boys play as tast ball . as. in
the Salem game, a victory ought ' to
be forthcoming.
