We rather expected that Doane, if she did not administer a drubbing, would hold the score very close. Such was not the case. The game was not the best in the history of our team, but the boys did splendid work considering the lack of practice and the number of new men on the eleven, We have at least found where our weak points are, and under the direction of our splendid coach they will soon bo made strong. The boys are training very hard and will undoubt edly be in splendid shape when wo meet the real enemy on the league gridiron. Occasionally we hear some one who re ceived his college training in the old school say that the elective system is the bane of intellectual advancement in our universities of today. Now a university is not a high school. It is an institution where students aro supposed to be strong enough mentally to prosper without the jurisdiction of a preceptress. It is a system of oppurtunities open to' those who wish to take personal advantage of them, and whoso diploma or certificate gives evidenco of a certain amount of actual accomplishment. The elective system is not, as supposed by many, a choice between work and idle-noj-s as preparatory to a degree. If a student, whether ho is under an elective or prescribed system, chooses to do nothing, he will receive a testimony of successful idleness in the refusal of a diploma.
