You are training in a university'
where the lines of thought, the studies,
even down to dramatics and music, are
sciences. •
Each mode of thought embraces the
whole life process. The two meet.
There is conflict. Conflict generates
thought.

think, why are you here?
In the Literary Digest the other
day a man supposedly in touch with
college affairs was quoted as saying
that the college phase was only tempor
ary, that when we left our assorted
campuses we would go happily back
to the beliefs we used to hold.
We might ask him why we came to
college!
As to which side fights the losing
battle—and it. really isn't much of a

ones, the former has the better chance.:
