It was im­ possible to seat all in the dining room and about fifty were served in the Sabbath school room upstairs, ,The crowd was seated in the church audi­ torium where Dr, Huber of Dayton, gave a splendid address on “The Boy” a lecture that he recently give before the Masonic Club in Xenia. In the ab­ sence of President O. E. "Eradfute,* Dr; Leo Anderson, vice president^ presided. Dr. Huber before starting his ad­ dress took occasion to express his idea of the great benefits that can be gained for a community through such an organization. It was just the kind of an organization that eveyy com­ munity should have, the kind that Kindled and kept alive a spirit of in terest that was necessary for the community, the church and the edu­ cational institutions. While Dr, Huber addressed “The Boy”, he included the “ Sister” in part of his address, Stress was laid on the fact that fathers were more responsible for the kind of boys we raise and mother for the kind' of girls. ? •. ’ • . j Nothing jpj all the world compares with ,the boy, not even our great wealth or all our industries, His life' is sacred. He is naturally an op- tomist. He,must have a clean bill of health through heredity. He is nat­ urally a hero- worshiper and the fath­ er is the first and the mother the heroine of the girl. The hoy must have before him through his parents, high ideals. His5vocation in life can be guided through home influence. His charac­ ter built by environment, by associa­ tion with people of integrity. Following the address Dr. McChes- ney W d Rev. Busier gave talks on aehalf of the drive for funds to se­ cure an athletic director. This movement has the support of the College and public schools, ' each contributing $500. The community is asked for $2,000 for salary of the director.’ In the call for subscrip­ tions cards were distributed and’ a- boufc $700 -raised that night. Since canvassers have been calling on the people o f this edmmunity. nlfgr? ^ any more than thi.,: the pupils o f the public schools from the lower grades to the high school, college students, business men, citizens in general, will profit.through the benefits of an athletic director. . - COUNTY SCHOOLEOARD TO BE ELECTED BY THE PEOPLE The state Senate yesterday passed the Kumler bill for the direct elec­ tion of county boards of education by the people.
