THE HESPERIAN lfi ence? Why was it that during the zither con cert, the basso profundo undertone of heedless listeners, at times destroyed the soul that the performers were endeavoring to draw forth from their instruments? Why is it, that in chapel, in society halls, during the programs, in the halls during recitations, there is so often so much noise Is it western spirit? If so, heaven pro tect us? In Texas when it is desired to break a mus tang, the horse in question is first lassoed, bound, saddled and bridled, with a bit in his mouth on which is a curb four or five inches long. When released this horse has a master on his back and is ridden, but not tamed. Students are the counterparts of these wild animals. Young, gushing and full of spirits, they are never constrained to restrain themselves. There are rules but a student takes more de light in breaking one rule than in obeying twenty. Rules will never change the character of the stu dent body. The students' pride and honor must he reached. To make them polite, they must be , made to see the need of politeness. Eradicate the false idea of smartness and feeling of reckless liberty from the student body, and make of them gentlemen. Gentlemen, real gentlemen, sent forth on every commencement day, would be a proud boast for our alma mater. POINTERS. Sutton & HollowbUsh, Ice Cream and Candies.
