EDITORIAL.
THE USE OF STUDY PERIOD.
At Guilford we have a time to
work and a time to play. When
the bell rings at seven o'clock p.
m., it is a signal for us to go to
work and we are supposed to do
nothing else until ten o'clock. But
how many of us do this? Proba
bly most of the students who have
to remain in their rooms improve
their time; but among the boys,
who are not forced to stay in their
rooms, much time is wasted.
It is a rule rather than an ex
ception to see many of the boys
out making polite calls during
this period. Some have, by using
this as a calling hour, become
very sociable companions but at
the same time they have not been
raising the standard of scholar
ship here. Among those who do
most of this visiting are to be
found the fellows who are not
making good.
The most lamentable fact in
connection with this is that the
one who deliberately wastes his
time is not the only one who suf
fers. If he visits he must vVut
some other fellow and perhaps the
other fellow is thus led to waste
time that he would otherwise use
in study.
Do not understand this to mean
that every fellow should stay in
his room as if his life depended
111 it. Nothing of this kind is
meant, nor does the writer think
tlu\t it should be compulsory to
stay in one's room during this
hour. The purpose of this is to
show that this is a privilege which
we should appreciate and not
abuse and that too much visiting
during this study period is detri
mental both to the caller a d
host.

Y. M. C. A. NOTES.
"Front day to day we observe
beautiful Christian characters,
but we are prone to forget that it
hits been only thru overcoming
many temptations that they have
obtained them." These are the
words with which T. G. I'errv
opened his very interesting and
instructive talk at the Y. M. C. A.
hist Thursday evening. He also
read a selection of Scripture from
the lirst chapter of James bearing
upon the idea that we are not to
put the blame for temptation upon
God. Again, none can escape
temptation. It comes to every one.
But we should look upon it not,
as something which will bear us
down, but as a round in a ladder
by which we can mount higher. It
is endurance and hardship that
make the good soldier. But let us
remember that it is only when we
overcome temptations that they
do us good.
The speaker also referred us to
many of the greatest men in his
tory who accomplished their work
thru overcoming temptation.
Then Jesus Christ is the supreme
example of the conqueror of temp
tations. He it was who had the
most to overcome, yet never fal
tered. One of the most evident
things in the speaker's discourse
was the spirit of never-say-die. No
matter how often we fall there is
never a time when we cannot rise
again.
Lastly we must remember that
we will not be tempted more than
we can bear. In every temptation
we shall be provided with power
to overcome it.
