THE HESPERIAN
There is no reason why debate should not be the most inter
esting part of the Program.
Well, Lineolnian, at last we have found yon. Long before
in rummaging through the ex. your fame had reached us. Yon
arc indeed working up a reputation, of which your contempo
raries will be jcalous(?). In your superior power you have
risen so lar above the rest that they think you arc tooting.your
own horn loo much. It's a shame they cannot appreciate a
good thing when they sec it. They have forgotten that
check and sclfjmportancc is the secret of success in this age
of political chicanery. It makes us feel bad to sec so many
ex-incn hopping on to your little sheet and trying to tramp it
down to the level of their own existence. Shall we enter a
protest for you? Coinc, worthy contemporaries, we appeal
to you to let up. It's no use. In the quiet stillness of our ed
itorial sanctum we can hear that Licofnian's horn sounding
out its clear notes a whole octave above all others. The ex.
man of the Hesperian would not presume to ofTer criticism.
We can only say, let this child of genius live!
In many of the papers that come to us we find their ex
change list printed. Does not this take too much valuable
space for the worth of the information given? We fully sym
pathize with the ex. fed., but we cannot refrain from entering
a protest. A long list of names is of no interest to the great
majority of readers. What is the exchange for any way? In
ouropinion it should not be the languid, half-uttered senti
ments we sometimes catch ourselves writing. Neither should
it be the battle field of the various editorial staffs throughout
the college world. The exchange editor who begins, or al
lows himself to be drawn into a miserable, ungentlemanly
squabble reflects discredit upon the institution to which he be
longs and is an injury to the paper he represents. The ex
change department should be a sort of reunion ground where,
although separated by miles of country, the readers as well
the editors could exchange ideas, where criticisms should be
kindly but firmly made. As we read some of the exchanges
we imagine them to have been written with a sword in the
hands of the most pugnacious member of the staff.
