The critic gave us some good hints
about what to do when we can not
understand the recitations-listen to the
music of the meter. This will certain
ly be great advantage to all of us as
there are always several pieces that are
unintelligible, even in the front rows.
He also gave few remarks on the de-
bate. He said it was not always natural
genius that counted, many of the stu
dents who got the best standing, did
not do such good wook because of their
genius, but because they studied hard,
and did not give up at the first defeat;
that student with perseverance would
accomplish more than very talented
person who was lazy.
A few of the boys had started out at
the beginning of the meeting with an
unsuccessful attempt to rattle" the new
president on parliamentary law, but
they didn't find him so easy to rattle"
When, after the program, the meeting
was open to business, they tried to
bring up some resolutions. But, I'M
mediately after the motion for their
reading, the motion for adjournment
was made-a hot discussion followed,
until it was proven that the motion for
adjournment was in order. 1t was
voted upon and carried so the resolu-
tons remain mystery. The indigna-
ton of those young gentlemen was I'M
bounded-they weren't accustomed to
having their pet schemes squelched in
such preemptory manner
On Tuesday, Mr. Parlin gave us
talk on the origin of the calendars and
explained to us from the standpoint of
the Latin language. why this is not the
twentieth century. On Thursday, Mr..
Wells, gave us an interesting talk on
getting along in the world"

''Lincolns mother died when he was
