A CURIODS THING
One Subject Upon Which Men
and Women of University
Must" Speak
Student opinion is a curious thing.
Feeling and beliefs find starting
place In remote corner and struggle
here and there for growth and often
time die. At other time they grow
rapi(Ly. if there I any foundation,
and If provoked or incited at any
time gather their power until noth
ing short of granting the demand
can overcome them. Under ordinary
j circumstances the- opinion will be
