long past due and we want victory as never before hobart has had a good schedule this year in their first game they went out of their class and were beaten 34 — 0 by syracuse in the next game they lost to dartmouth 32 — 0 this was no disgrace when it is remembered that dartmouth beat cornell last week 62 — 13 in other words dartmouth scored nearly twice as many points against cornell as they did against hobart hobart beat alfred 36—0 clarkson 7—0 and union 22—12 they have lost only to st lawrence 6 — 0 in teams of their class buffalo has played only two teams on hobart's schedule by which some comparison can be made buffalo de feated alfred 6—0 while hobart drubbed them 36—0 clarkson lost to buffalo 10—0 and to hobart 7—0 like all dope this may mean little or nothing but there it

query of why mathematcis is answered by mr sherk love of subject accounts for the great discoveries » fifth of faculty lecture i series interests money the object ol education in its broadest sense is to produce cultured men culture is civilization con scious of itself and civilization con cerns our adjustments to nature the supernatural society leisure and to i surplus wealth this definition pro vides a standard whereby the impor tance of the subjects taught at our schools and colleges may be measured this was clearly brought out by pro fessor sherk at his lecture tuesday november 11 there are three reasons why ma thematics is one if not the most im portant of these subjects as regards the promotion of culture first be cause it is of uumeasurable practical value second because it forms an ha bitual mode of thought which is in valuable to every student and then be cause it is interesting mathematics is the only exact sci ence there is and so the inexactness of the physical and social sciences are measured by it the forms of mathe matics are everywhere present in na ture in the motions of the heavenly bodies in plant life and in physiology of these three reasons for studying mathematics it is from the third the research for love of the subject itself that the greatest discoveries and de velopments have come its very de flniteness logic and conciseness has attracted and gripped the minds of great and thoughtful men of all times the dealing with these great eter nal and unchangeable truths leads men to believe in the great power who guides all things this concluded
