The TRAIL 8.9 Gfre Senate X HE present Senate was or fanized in October of 1916 for the pur 1 rf j pose ol piomotmo the spnit of debate among the men students H L 1 . ' - y '.' - C . 12.211 A of the college both in and out of the Senate. The charter mem- lfiff' Era- ', A . . ' , , ' , Q, Z S beis weie H H Hayman Hugh Caldwell Ralph King Dean Miner, William Welsh and Phillip Paine. The Senate chooses its members from among those who have shown an active interest in debating. The membership of the Senate is ordinarily 12, with the maximum of 15. No one who knows the nature of the Senate will deny that it is the livest organization in school. The meetings are looked forward to by the members as a rare 'treat and when the meeting has been called to order, live rliscussions, hot debates, and fiery orations are the order of the day. The Senate is a source of lasting benefit to its members. Everyone who expects to make a success in life must be able to speak on his feet and be thoroughly at home in the use of parliamentary law and tactics. Oppor- tunity for the practice of these arts is afforded by the Senate as by no other organization in the College of Idaho. The Senate is not a secret association, yet it does not believe that too much publicity will give it more dignity and infiuence. The meetings are held behind closed do-ors and visitors are not allowed except when the members deem. it advisable to hold an open meeting. Every man who has been a member of the Senate looks upon it as a place of most interesting and helpful incidents not so-on to be forgotten. The gavel which the Senate uses and owns was first used by the society of the same name which was organized several years ago by Professor Gipson. It is the emblem of the present society and the pattern for the pin which each member is entitled to wear for own and let someone else weary For some years it was in the possession of the Student Body, but after a memorable fight in the spring of 1917 that association 'turned it over to the Senate. This gavel still remains in the possession of the Senate in spite of the fact that certain other organizations have been laboring under the illusion that they would, at some time, Hnd the historic gavel floating around in mid-air from which element they would procure it. One of the chief college social functions is the annual banquet which is held at Blatchley Hall. Needless to say this is not a meeting held exclu- sively without visitors.
