men found nothing but good In the frater-

Relations of Fraternities.

Campaigns for the election of freshmen
10 the fraternities are carried on under rules
agreed to by all the chapters. so as to
cure honorable contests. 1t is forbidden for
the member of any fraternity to speak ill
fixes about his own, but he cannot run
down a rival. The feeling between some Of
the fraternites is friendly and even init
mate. The Alpha Delta Phi and Psi Epsilon
charters. which have their houses side by
side always initiate their new members the
same night. They exchange letters of con-
graduation whenever a member of either
fraternity secures an honor. and after the
annual initiation ceremonies serenade each
other. Even the anti-fraternity men have
an organization and house. and do every
thing that is done by the secret fraternities,
even to keeping its own meetings ard pro-
ceedings secret The dormitories are given
up. therefore. almost entirely to freshmen.
Secretary Root, at the recent alumni BAN
quet of Hamilton College. said: Il am a
great believer In the benefits of college fra
ternities. The influence of the upper
classmen has saved many young fellows
from going wrong. The fraternities have
done what the professors could not do.
They are necessary for the usefulness Of
the college"
President Harris of Amherst shares the
same opinion. He speaks with enthusiasm
about the usefulness of the Greek letter
societies at Amherst in promoting the So
cial life OF the college and in preserving the
discipline. He Is himself member of
Alpha Delta Phi. which also has the dean
and treasurer of the college and five pro-
fessors; Psi Epsilon has seven members of
the faculty: Delta Kappa Epsilon four:
Chi Psi and Phi Gamma Delta two each.
and the other four fraternities one each.
This accounts for thirty-four members Of
the faculty.

rounded and drawn out by the members OF
his fraternity in the faculty and among the
undergraduates, and conduct which might
result in his dismissal and disgrace has
been checked in time to save him.
1.-The faculty members OF fraternitles
make use of the chapter houses freely take
an active part in the limitations. enjoy the
entertainments and frolics which are often
held and in every possible way identify
themselves with the undergraduate men,
bers of their fraternities. Thus the college
has become a collection Of large families
cooperating with each other and seeking
the best for its individual members.
The Democratic Spirit.
1.-THE spirit of the Amherst students and
their Willingness to subordinate their fra
ternity associations to the welfare of the
college Is shown by their resolution to
scatter among the dining clubs and board
ing houses. Each of the eleven chapter
houses could easily be equipped so that
the members might dine together as they
do In several other colleges, but the fra
ternity men have voluntarily relinquished
this privilege and have agreed to board at
the various tables which are not formed on
fraternity lines. Thus members of the
various societies are brought together with
non-fraternity men three times a day,
which promotes acquaintance. feeling Of
mutual respect and democratic college
spirit, and neutralizes any tendency toward
exclusiveness which might grow out of fra
ternity life"

The Greek letter fraternties have
reached an influence and development at
Amherst that is probably beyond that In
any other educational institution. They
are not only officially recognized by the
members and engage on equal terms with
the students in their meetings and cere-
monies and social life and show just as
much interest in their progress and well
fare. More than two-thrds of the students
belong to fraterniteS and room in the
chapter houses instead of the regular
dormitories OF the college although they
