THE /. N. l. IN LITERATURE.

| Another drop from Times bucket
has fallen into eternity, never again
to appear, since last the above theme
was permitted to contribute to the
! libraries of those who are its friends.
and patrons of it and the beneficent
column that conveys it to such homes.
1t certainly does occur to me that he
who manifests no interest in the well
| fare of the two great educational in
situations of our country, the school
and the newspaper, is deaf to all that
\ appertains to our national greatness,
| and blind to the torch Of latter day
progress. We believe there are very
few who are alive to the light of the
day in which they live. whose interest
would not be enlisted in an institution
that is moulding the destiny of the
nation to degree proportional to its
territory. Next to the affairs of the
institution that deals directly with the
future condition OF the souls of men,
comes the one that is lighted by it's
radiance and develops the inherent
powers of humanity. Since everything
with which active people have to do
must progress, it is necessary, in per-
Torrance of our responsibility, that
upon vital enterprises, we should in
a. ,.,lz
progress is improvement People of
Judgment tell us that one of the i'm
portant claims to improvement is that
thing is more practical more tangi-
BILE than its predecessors. Then if an
Institution of learning presents sub
stantial claims to this requisite it is
evidently msritorious one. 1t can
not be doubted, by any one whose OPP
portunity it is to know, that the Nor
NAL is doing work that entities her to
the above claim. Work for the past
weeks has been characterized by
marked interest. Glass discussions
are, of course. the most important
features of the work and in these en-
thusiasm knows no limit. Every
| member carries with him to his class
that ardor and zeal with which he ex-
/ poets to acc ,mplish his objects in
in school and characterize his attempts
to achieve victory in his encounter
with the stern realities Of ripper years.
He realizes that in school and in BUSH.
mes, the degree of success to whith
he attains, is measured by the amount
OF enthusiasm he manifests in his labor.
L discussion of an infinite variety of
subjects used in portraying causes and
effects, disciplines the minds of stu
dents to compare and contrast what
ever is presented to their investie;-
ton. and to do it independently. The
general exercises have been especially
| distinguished by several eloquent
| p 'actical and historical speeches So
we'll have the speakers maintained
their established reputation that Gen.
x. is still the most fascinating pat
OF the program. If time and space
did not protest it would be pleasu, g
to give synopsis OF soma themes of
recent treatise, but in this case suffice
1t to say that the student who is dis
posed to appreciate good opportuni-
ty wi never live to forget thousand
valuable thoughts and lessons learned
only Ia these exercises. Society in
common, with its spring suit, is not
behind the procession. Reading Club
is still all life, and the source of limit
less mirth and many valuable thought
and feeling. The debating sections
have consolidated into senate for
the discussion of various measures to
be introduced. and for drill in par
llamenfary procedure. We realize,
thatto be full-fedged citizen, we
must know how to deport ourselves
and accomplish our ends in deliber
tive assemblies. This is the most ami
mating exerc Sc it is the privilege of
students to enjoy. 1t will develop
much power that you can get nowhere
csc. 1t might be supposed by the
naturally dreamy and superstitious,
that bright spring. with It's many al
Turing entertainments that gladden. the
heart and soften the feelings OF man.
has dethroned our power for duty. and
led cur fancies captive through her
elysian fields. But be assured such an
assumption would do the l. N. great
injustice. We find solid bliss in duty
and such environments only prove an
Inspiration TO Us to make our work as
exquisite as nature own
