Dartmouth College Notes.

Vespers. The Pharisee and the
Publican. 1t is not easy to draw
sharp line between the good
and the bad, especially between
the good and the bad man-tO
tell how much bad there is IN the
good, or how much good there is
in the bad. This Pharasee was a
man loyal to his obligations, a
public spirited man; giving as we
should say, according to his
means, and free from vices, but
he was filled with spiritual pride.
That was the bad thing about his
goodness, and it was so bad that
1t was his condemnation. This
Publican as sinner, doubtless
guilty of dishonesty, injustice and
cruelty as a tax collector,
"grafter" of his time, but he re-
pented. That was the good
thing about his badness, and it
was so good that it was his re-
demption. In either case, how
ever, we are dealing with the ex-
CeptlOnal. We must be on our
guard lest we form the habit of
mind of dwelling upon the bad in
the good, and upon the good in
the bad. There is a pharisaism
which goes with the bad as we'll
as with the good. Here is a man
who does wrong things, things
which are confessedly wrong, but
he boasts of the fact that he does
not lie; he is no hypocrite; he
does things in the open. He
over capitalizes the one virtue of
truthfulness. There is his phar-
lsa1sm. Or a man may boast IN
like manner of his generosity,
though he never pays his debts; or
of his goodfellowship with men,
when he might not hesitate to be-
tray woman. PhariSaism is the
Over-capltalization of some vir-
tue, usually the one which comes
easiest to a man.
1t is the danger which turks III
all conventional1zed forms of bus
mess or social life. If one meets
the requirements of his trade or
or party, or set. he
makes little account of the COM
mon requirements of justice or
or even of good manners. |
The constant danger of the col
lege man is from the artificial, |
the conventional. Never do, as a
college man, what you would not
do as a man. Be simply and nat
urally human. II you do wrong,
repent of the wrong, that is the
only natural thing to do. If you
do right. do it modestly. with
humility. That is the only wav
to do right. Right doing Is never
At its best, except as it reaches
out into the unconscious habit.

Musical Festival.

The Musical festival starts out
auspiciously. Some of the best
s1eighing we have had this year
brought into town the musical
people of other towns, and each
town is sending in its full quota.
Wednesday night, large rehear-
sal was held, when the out of
town singers and the soloists met
together with the musical AssOci-
alton. Last night the first con-
cert was given, too late for any
thing to be given in the paper
this week. This afternoon, there
will be an exceptionally good con-
cert and this evening, the climax
will be reached, in The Rose
Maiden, which will be given in
connection with a short miscel-
laneous program. Indications
point to a crowded house, and GER
tainly the work that has been
done this winter on the catata
merits a rousing audience. 1t is
one of the things that you don't
want to miss, if you want to hear
the best musical talent in town
and solo1sts the best that this
part OF the state affords. 1t is
under Harry Mays direction.

lowed given in honor of the basket
ball teams of West Lebanon High

as it afforded an opportunity for
two schools to meet which ought
especially to be interested in each
other this year. The two pr1n-

meet their former pupils.

BENEFITS Spring Millinery Opening.
Though probably the latest on the list OF
