April, 1909

The Christian Association of the College has recently furnished the undergraduate body with two interesting speakers. The first of these was E. T. Colton, a graduate of the University of South Dakota and now an active official for the Young Men's Christian Association of the country. The other was George F. Tibbitts of Washington, D.C., who gave an illustrated lecture entitled, "The Battle of the Strong," showing the remarkable growth of the Y. M. C. A. throughout the world.

Mr. Colton spoke the evenings of March 21, 22, and 23, on the subjects, "Selfishness in College Men," "Student Temptations," "What God Offers to do for Tempted Men," and "The Rule of Healthy Life." His talks secured large audiences and were not without an effect. The Tibbitts lecture was given m Webster Hall and was accompanied by the mandolin and glee clubs of the College. This was the"third annual entertainment given by the association, the other two being those of Jacob Riis and of Booker T. Washington.
