All matter intendod for publication should be ad- of effort, it would permit of a much greater amount bi work being- done in the same length of time. A one-hour-a-week course is at best very unsatisfactory and often almost farcical, as continuity of interest and application is lost. It is far j easier and more satisfactory to keep up a course in which the recita tions come as often as three times a week. The work of the examina tion period would also be much easier for the same reason, as well as from the fact that fewer exami nations would be necessary.

In athletics, of course nothing has been attracting much attention, that is until within the last couple of weeks. About two weeks asro a meeting of the tennis players of the University was called for the pur we understand that the authori- p0se of arranging a tournament to ties ot the University have adop- be held sometime in the spring, and ted a plan which will involve a much was the surprise and gratifi- complete re-arrangement of the cation of the originators of the courses or study.

In the hrst place it would permit men more readily "to work their way through college," as it would allow of their taking up work in the fall and winter months, when it is most easily obtained and most lucrative, without being forced to break iuto the continuous work of a term. the more are we encouraged to be lieve that the record of this year's team will be even better than that of last. The men are in earnest and, as I wrote you before, nearly all of last year's team are back.

The question of college colors which has been agitating the stu dent bod' for several years came to a climax about a month since when. at a mass-meeting, it was decided to leave it to a vote of the faculty and students.
