COLLEGE GIRL PATRIOTISM.
Students at Smith and Mount Holyoke
Stirred by the Events of War.

On tuesday morning last the Smith
college girls had an opportunity of see
ing at close range what the parting OF
thirty years ago must have been when
tho soldier boys went away. A great
crowd gathered at the station at SIS TO
cheer the slldiers on their way TO the
State camp. The band played patriotic
airs, canon saluted, bells rang. whistles
blew and the people shouted themselves
hoarse. and the college girls helped In
TIN enthusiasm. For week or more tho
college organ had been out Of repair, but
at chapel that morning IT was ready Tor
use again. DR.. Blodgett played The
Star Spangled Banner" as the girls
marched out two by two, and even the
girl who did not sympathize with the
war felt a thrill Of the patriotism on
that occasion.
AT a class meeting which lasted the en-
tire afternoon a few days ago, the Ju-
niors discussed the ACCESSIBILITY Of giving
up the promenade. Many arguments
were brought forward pro and con, bur
IL was finally decided that the best
thug Smith girls could do in these excit-
ing times was 10 keep the even tenor OF
their way to do well the duties before
them. and 10 hold the Junior promenade

OUR STORED-UP POWER.
Mr.. Staybolt Considers Man as Built

Staybolf built in series OF Compartments,
though he may not know this fact at the
outset, and he may indeed go through

with him unused stocks Of ability ana

There are some few men who command

and then there are many who respond
only 10 the most urgent call But there
are few men who cannot in some way be

This brings me for illustration, TO
brief consideration Of the personal quail

which l imagine, most OF us pos

there are few men who finally run

THE DANGER OF THE HOUR.

There are those who predict that there
win be new and an ali-absorhng IS
sue in 1900. That there will be a great
Marty that will go in for a navy equal
10 that ~ any nation on earth, for large
standing army. for the annexation OF
outlying territory. for the building Of
shlp canals and the laying Of cables In
xhort for the most advanced European
policy Of imperialism.
We do not believe It. There has been
3 great deal Of wild talk Of this char
ac;er since the war with Spain began
and we know that there are many peo-
ple in the United States who would lie
glad TO see the government embark upon
such a policy But the imperialists are
not confined by any means 20 any one
marty. and in order 20 have a national
party Of imperialists, party lines would
have 10 be recast Democrats ana ke-
publicans would be compelled to throw
aside all other questions that had d.
vided them and make common cause on
the one issue which is out Of the range
Il seems to us, Of possibility. The only
possible hope Of success that such
movement could have would be that one
or the other o. the great national parties
would adopt Imperialism as its leading is
sue. and that is inconceivable.
The American people differ widely as
IN questions Of tariff. finance and the
like. but the true Americans in both
parties are agreed as 10 our foreign pol
icy. They cling 10 the old traditions and
will willingly cut loose from the safe
moorings established by the founders Of
our government for the crazy dream Of
foreign empire.
But there is danger. and the danger
lies in taking the first step. If after we
shall have done with this Cuban war;
we adhere strictly TO our declaration OF
war and leave TO themselves Cuba and the
Philippines and other islands that may
fali into our hands and take up OUT own
domestic AFFAIRS where VIC left them,
refusing 10 take unto ourselves the spells
of war, then we shall gain the plaudits
OF the whole world, we shall rise in our
own self respect and the danger OF this
threatened Imperialism win have passed.
But II We shall take the first step, If
we shall add to our territory these ISL
ands of the sea which are beyond our do
main, II we once get our appetite whet-
ted for foreign possessions. then God
only knows where It will end.
Let us beware Of the new departure.
Let us be careful not to take the first
step, for there all the danger lies.
