...taken a step in advance. If a brief statement of the Student Council, setting forth the situation in concrete form, is instrumental in reducing the number of absences it has justified its position by just so much, both to the students and to the governing boards. Even in this regard, what does it matter in the long run whether or not this has been due to the specific recommendations of the Council? The fact that there has been a change for the better is the important thing and it is reasonable to believe that the Council, whose chief reason...
...considerably greater than the estimates made last year and is probably as high as it has ever been. Evidently something more than the general increase in the cost of living has been accountable for this difference.

Traditions can be maintained only...
...granted even to lovable men, the power of awakening affection. No one who met him in the mere casual relations of life could fail to be impressed with his sincerity; while to those who were privileged to know him intimately he endeared himself in countless ways. Of the affectionate regard in which his friends held him I do not trust myself to write. He loved his fellow-men and their love was given him in return. He found the good in all men; if there was evil in those of whom he spoke, it was left unsaid. His large consideration...
