This is about the time that students feel most like taking exercise, and it would certainly be a great benefit to them to be allowed to use the gymnasium at this time. However this is merely a suggestion. If the students desire to have the gymnasium open in the evenings it will be an easy matter for them to accomplish such a result. foEFORE nartine with his colleagues, the editor- in-chief desires to take this opportunity for Avmsinc the hieh appreciation that he has for those who were associated with him during the past year on the editorial staff of The Hesperian.

Our students are noted for the loyalty that they display at state contests; but they should bear in mM that no
