"For We're Always Good Fellows.”
Word has reached the Emerald that
one of the Fraternities will withdraw
from the interfraternity leagues on
the ground that they are not conduct
ed so as to promote friendship and
goodfellowship among the various
houses participating, but only rather
exaggerate fraternity loyalty as op
posed to college loyalty and increase
the enmity already existing between
certain classes.
The reasons given for this fraterni
ty’s withdrawal may be well founded
and the leagues may have failed to
realize one of the ideals on which
they were constructed, namely, to
bring the various houses into closer
acquaintanceship; in fact, the present
status of affairs seems to prove it.
but the question now before us is, can
the leagues be continued and con
ducted to advantage, or, are the fra
ternities so envious of one another
that they cannot contest in sports
manlike manner?
This question we shall not attempt
to answer at this time, but we do
wish to say that it speaks pretty badly
for us here, when we cannot engage
in a little contest for a silver mug,
without allowing our narrow preju
dices to get the better of us; we, who
have nothing to do but study a little
and be good fellows. It’s time the
seniors of the houses, who realize
most fully the absurdity of all this,
were bestiring themselves in an at
tempt to bring about a more congenial
attitude towards one another. Cer
tainly human nature is not so far de
teriorated that goodfellowship is an
obsolete state.
Vppreriation.
Tlu« action of tlu' Student Body
this morning in reelecting the present
editor to a second term, is taken as
an honor by that individual and is
appreciated fully.
It is satisfying to know that the
Student Body has enough confidence
in the editor’s sincerity to put out a
paper worth while, to intrust the
Emerald’s welfare to him a second
term. It will he his ideal during the
next semester, as it has been this
semester, to keep the columns of the
Emerald as free from predjudice as
possible, but to make them stand for
all that will echo true student senti
ment and will aid in the upbuilding
of the University.
No Issue Uehruary 11.
In order to pive the mourners of the
Emerald staff opportunity to prepare
for final examinations, no Emerald
will be published the Saturday before
examinations. Reporters are, how
ever, requested to fto their work on
the two is-, .os tollowinp this one, or,
if that is impossible, to notify the
editor or manapinp editor in plenty of
time to allow the work to be dele
paled 11> someone else.

And my classmates in a shoal,
Come to speed my parting soul,
Strong spirits comfort me.

she wear it until she retires.
