Wo admire tho man of opinions. Ho is so sulf
const niotfd, so indepondnnt, but oftimos n now puir
of shoos would suit us bettor.
Ono of the results of college training slioulti bo
found in our ability to limit tho knowledge wo lmvo.
'We do not go to school simply to learn positive
tilings but also to iind out whoro wo are at, and to
'discover and take boundry notes on tho great Holds
which wo know nothing about. Tho intelligent man
ishot so much tho one who knows what ho Knows as
it is tho ono who knows what lie does uot know.
HVork is more than more activity, and yet wo often
j'ullgo u man's accomplishment by tho number of
gyrations lie can make in a given timo. If one is
constantly busy w lake it lor granted that ho is do-
ingsomolhlng, but such is not always tho case A
student may run and whirl and rummage ami still
accomplish hut little, while the slow malhodical one
is 'always gaining ground. Student, life after nil is
much like tub racing. The man who is content to
sit upright, and puddle carefully, and does uot get
'contused with ids surroundings, is sure to got across
'the pond quicker than the one who madly splashes,
us though his life depended on getting in as many
strokes as possible in a given timo Besides this the
,'cnrii'ul contestant duds not run the rihk of gettiug
a score of duckings which are very embarrassing and
undignlliod.
Atlirflt.it might scom ludicrous to think it neces
sary for tho Instructor in ethics to give his class a
lecture on tho ethical use of library books. Hut to
tho student who has had an opportunity to know
tho facte, it is uotu laughable matter, In fact it is
something deserving serious thought. It is a fact
which there is no use trying to conceal, that in tho
university there are students who are not in any
way conscientious in their use df library books
Some will hide a book while tliey go to class in or
der that they will be sure of getting it after class.
Others will ovon take the book to class with them
SI ill others will oven venture to take books home
with them without securing tho permission of the
librarian. All this is not merely against the rules of
tho librarian. It is wrong. Again the student who
does this Is not only doing something he hiU no
right to do. He is at tho same time depriving some
deserving student of tho ttso of tho book ho is, per
haps, keoping a more conscientious student from
getting his lesson In fact tho students who do thU
are little if any above 'those' who necessitated iho
chock room. They have no claim to the respect of
tho student body.
Union Girls' Program.
A crowded hall oMJuious and 'friends gathered to
