A P%erilous Period for College Meu

The influence of college student over

value than the influence of college pro-

the value of the influence Of the stu
dent toward good may he equally
strong. Students, like professors, who
have the qualities of a strong p~ersonali-
ty united with tact, patience and en-
thusiasm, may be of the utmost worth
in helping their associates to the best
life.
One special means or condition m
bodying the influence of student over
student is seen in the fraternity. N
fraternity is a unique exponent of col
lege life; it represents more than any,
other clement the expression OF fellow
ship. College officers are now using, to
an extent hitherto unknown, members
in a fraternity to influence other mem
bers of the same fraternity. In a sense
the fraternity is a college within a COL
lege. The bare value of the buildings
of the fraternities at Cornell, at Yale,
at Amherst, far exceeds the aVerge en-
dowhment OF the American college. This
condition Of good fellowship pens the
way to operation of an kinds of health
full and helpful influences. The peril
Gus time in the life of a college man is
his first year; if, in this time of peril,
he can AVE a man who stands at the
other and older end of the college
course as his best friend, who himself
is pure and strong and wise and tact
full, he secures the best method for
keeping himself in the way of truth,
and of honest and good living. I know
a student at Williams College who was
at one time told that a classmate and
fraternity associate Of his would he
obliged to leave college unless the dere-
lict man could be taken as a room
mate by the wiser and stronger one.
He was so taken, and 1 have no reason
to think that the wiser INA stronger
man was injured, though the younger
and less strong man was helped.-Pres-

politeness that he quite forgot his bust

planned.

May I ask what kind, madam"
