The lne liable follows-the spoils Bystem goes into effect with the count of the laBt vote Yet with the growing demand for ctllclent manage ment of class affulrs. due to the recent trouble of the upper classes over linan clal affairs, the spoils system is under going some little change for the better. Chairmen of Important committees are chosen in advance by the candidates. They are supposed to contain some few of the characteristics which go to make up the elements of their work. And tho personal responsibility which rests upon committeemen under the roglino of audited accounts goes a long wny toward securing the services of only those men who are willing to assume this responsibility Whether it is "to the voter belong the spoils," or "to the victor," it makes; little difference to the campus as long as tho affairs of the clasB are conduct ed smoothly and without effort on the part of tho rest of the classmen.
