60 THE VALE sH1NoLu. our coming that we may apply the balm of profound legal learning to his wounds? Or does the cold, out- side world, in its hurrying and scurrying, fail to realize that soon seventy young men, with hopeful hearts and empty pockets, will sally forth to begin the battle of life as youthful members of a great profession?

The selection of the easiest to recite to is very close. Prof. Robinson again wins Hrst place, with Prof.
