were taken in charge by Deputy Mar
shall Weiss on Saturday night were
sent back to their homes Monday
morning. The boys were glad enough
to be on the way home, but proved
that they were in no wise embarrassed
by their position by demanding that
they be given money for their dinner
and to pay car fare across Boston. for
they said that their home was three
miles from the station and that they
did not care to walk that far. They
came to Maine fully equipped in their
opinion to go to work and were looking
forward to busy winter. but their ex-
perience was not a very pleasant one
and both declared that they would be
satisfied to remain at home in the fu-
ture. They are the children of pros
porous parents and there was appar-
emily not the slightest reason in the
world for their running away from
home except love of adventure

COLBY COLLEGE
Important Ruling on Represen-
tation in Activities AZ
fecting Standing
GLEE CLUB CANDIDATES
ORDERED TO REPORT

A very important announcement ap-
peared on the bulletin board Monday,
coming right from the Faculty, and
signed by DR.. Parmenter and DR.. Little.
This announcement, very radical in the
administration of the college reads as
follows: beginning with the fall SEM
ester of next year, the custom Of grant,
ing an extra course as an equivalent
to the removal Of deficiency for eleg-
Utility to represent the college. will be
discontinued" 1t is strict rule, of the
college, not to allow a man to repre-
sent the college in any of the current
activities, such as athletics, dramatics,
musical clubs or the like, unless he is a
student Of accepted standing. This
rule, naturally prohibited student
with deficiencies from entering these
various activities. In order to get
around this, as it were, the student
elected an extra course by petition to
the Faculty, and thereby became a
student in good standing, with de-
fciency which he might pass at any
time before graduation. A recent rule
restricted the number Of deficiencies
beginning last fall, and this new rule
of the college. All these strict en-
forcements which are being levied on
the students, go to show that Colby
is stiffening in her requirements and
is tasty joining in the ranks of the
larger colleges, in her high ideals Of
scholarship. - t}
Now that the political parties have
come to a verbal agreement. college
politics are again booming after be-
ing dormant for quite q period. The
long looked for debate between the two
parties, which was announced SO long
ago, has at last been settled ultimate

tween the executives of the two organ
