guess that nuisance is now pretty well
abated. Every now and then. they win
do something horrid: but think you
can safely. from now on, ignore them
entirely.
I shall be interested to hear how
YOU get on. first of all with your
studies, in which you seem to have
started well, and next with football. 1
expected that you would find it hard
to compete with other candidates for
the position of end. as they are mostly
heavier than you: especially since you
went off in weight owing to the ex-
citement Of your last weeks of holiday
In the summer OF course the fact that
you are comparatively light tells
against you and gives you good deal
to overcome; and undoubtedly 1t was
from this standpoint not good thing
that you were unable to lead a quieter
life toward the end Of your stay at
Oyster Bay.
| So it is about the polo club. In my
day we looked with suspicion upon all
Freshman societies, and the men who
tried to get them up or were promi-
nent in them rarely amounted to much
in the class afterwards: and it has
happened that I have heard rather
unfavorably of the polo club. But it
/ may be mere accident that / have thus
iheard unfavorably about it and in 80
Years the attitude of the best fellows
in college to such a thing as fresh
imam club may have changed so abso-
lutely that my experience can be OF
no value. Exercise your own best
Judgment and form some idea of what
the really best fellows in the class
think on the subject. Do not make the
mistake of thinking that the men who
are merely undeveloped are really the
best fellows, no matter how pleasan,
and agreeable they are or how pop
ular. Popularity is good thing, but il
IS not something for which to sacrifice
studies or athletics or good standins
in any way; and sometimes to seek i,
overnuch is to lose it. do not NEAR
this as applying to you, but as apply
ing to certain men who still have Z
great vogue at first in the class. ane
of whom you will naturally tend t.
think pretty well.
In all these things I can only adyis,
you in very general way. You ar
on the ground. You know the me-
and the general college sentiment
You have gone in with the seriou
, purpose of doing decently and honor
