and the most Christian communities
with which I have ever been thrown int
contact," declared John R. Mott, world
secretary of the S. C. A., in an inter-
view yesterday. "I strongly protestt
and deny charges to the effect that re-E
ligion and Christianity are losingi
ground in educational institutions.
My experience with the religious work
of all universities throughout the
world leads me to believe that relig-
ion is daily becoming a more impor-
tant branch of student life. In theI
United States this growth is more
pronounced than in foreign countries
a ad is especially manifested by the
increasing interest in the great social
problems of the day, and also in the
missionary movement. Last year over
5,100 university men went abroad to
do missionary work.
"I believe in state universities! Al-
though a few independent institutions
such as Yale, are able to accord a
very prominent place to religious ac-
tivities, I think that on the whole, re-A
ligion and Christianity are more im-
portant factors in the life of the stu-
dent of the state university than. theyl
are in the lives of students of other in-
stitutions."
Mr. Mott will speak on the Busrah
mission at 9:30 this morning in New-
berry hall, and at 12 o'clock to all
foreign students. At 8 this evening
he will deliver the principal address

The annual barbecue took place at
noon yesterday. A large roast which
had been suspended over a pit fire
since 3 o'clock the previous morning,
and four kettles of beans, cooked in
the approved Boston style, made up
the primitive feast of the woodsmen.
Clad in the conventional attire of
the woodsman, forty of the
near - foresters slept in tents
at the farm on Friday night, and
six unfortunates disdaining such shel-
ter, slept under the stars, experienc-
ing a severe drenching as the result.
The rain yesterday morning had no ef-
fect on the high spirits of the party
for the time was spent in playing
cards, or in listening to the music by
a string quartette.
Warning Issued to Sand Lot Artists.
Chief of Police Apfel, as a result of
numerous complaints which have
oeen made, wishes to warn all "bush
leaguers" against playing ball in the
streets. Up to this time no action
has been taken against those who
have done this, but hereafter arrests
will be made, in case this 'warning is
unheeded.
Eldridge Returns for Week-End.
Clarence E. "Dope" Eldridge, man-
aging editor of The Michigan Daily in
the college year of 1909-'10-°is in the
city for the week-end. He is at pres-
ent engaged in the practice of law
in Chicago.

During Celebration at
Commencement.
Nearly half a hundred of the 1911 lit s
class responded to the call and held r
a reunion last evening in the form n
of a banquet at the Michigan Union. s
The toastmaster Fred Lawton called d
for talks from several members of the
class, most of which dealt with remin- i
'iscences of college days. The following n
toasts were responded to; "Why We're v
Still Here," Maurice Myers; "How it i
Seems," Harry Myser; "After Think-
ing it Over," Stanfield Wells; "The C
Navy and its Equipments," Richard
Simmons.
It was unanimouly decided to come 4
back in large numbers for the Seven-
ty-fifth Anniversary Celebration. A
dance at Whitmore Lake and a
breakfast and dance at Barbour gym
were among the festivities planned k
for the reunion in June.t
