THE STArEUNtyERSrFY.

Rev. H. C. Hovey led the chapel exer-
eises on Tuesday. Some Of the students
are organizing club 10 make rink on the
campus. 1t is TO be hoped that they will
succeed better than they did last year, at
least the experience Is worthy of support.
There is nothing which would better prove
the S0ciability among the students than a
good rink. The professor of rhetoric has
become alarmed at the decrepit state of the
literaty societies and has started to inveSti-
gate the matter and remedy it. He has
interviewed several OF the students who
are prominent III literary work and asked
for suggestions Of means by which she
could a.d in reOrganZing the societies The
Christmas recess begins next Friday and
continues until January 4. During this
time the students will most of them go
home 70 enjoy the holidays.
The build ng committee of the Stud ents'
Christian association has under c0nsidera-
ton plans for their building. which will
cost about $4,000. The work OF the S. C.
a, has been very satisfactory this fall. and
what it accOmplisheS for the neral benefit
Of the students is not slight A feeling
prevails among a certain class of people
thai state university has very bad in
huence on the morals of students. A paper
from an Iowa Sectarian school goes so far
as to state that the students of state schools
are as goddess crew as college walls can
contain. This is certainly not true here.
Many of the East side churches make
special efforts to reach the students. while
within its walls the 5. G. A. carries on
work which is all the more successful be-
cause if is voluntary. A part of the money
for building has been subscribed by the
students. which speaks we'll for their en-
thusiaSm in the cause. The students Them
selves are in the main quiet and orderly,
obeying cheerfuily the rules which are
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1886-12-19

necessary. They evince none of the petty
spirit of destruction which is so often found.
1t would be strange indeed if body led
by such Christian gentlemen as the faculty
contains should be otherwise than orderly.
No hazing and little of the rougher college
spirit exists here, and desire to learn is
prevalent.
If one should make an inquiry into what
students do in vacation he would be sur
prised at the variety of their empiOyments.
There are. of course. many who give them
selves up to simple idleness, or TO recuper-
ate their health. but the majority find some
useful employment, many indeed holding
positions of honor and trust. There is a
feeling among some that they will do any
thing to turn an honest penny, and students
frequently take positions as walters at
watering places. The country schools
which have summer sessions are often in
charge of students of slender means. who
in this way are enabled to make sufficient
during the summer to carry them, with rigid
economy, through another years school.
Some of the engineering students get posi-
tons in surveying parties. This is about
as profitable an employment as they can
get. for they are able to use what skill they
have already acquired at school, and the
practical work is great aid in addition to
the financial help they get.
