PRIZE DEBATE' The annual prize debate was held on April 25. Owing to some difficulty in procuring judges, and also on deciding on the subject, it was held later than usual. The subject chosen is a well known topic of the day with which nearly every one is, to a certain extent, familiarg namely, Reciprocity with Canada. The subject is a very good one, as there is a great held to work in for both the negative and affirmative. As the class of '85 instituted the prize de- bate, it has always been customary to select judges from the graduates of that class. But two of that class were available, Messrs. Elliott and Schwartz, so Mr. Deacon acted as the third judge. It was announced to the contest- ants before the debate that the judges would ,award the prize for the best extemporaneous speech, the value of the arguments being of minor importance, as the idea of the debate is to find who in the class has the best command of the English language. The first prize was given to H. Wfillard Sterrett. Sterrett had an excellent debate and delivered it in a very clear and convincing manner. Unlike former years, the debators were very evenly matched, three men, Allen, Spiegel and Franks being tied for second hon- ors. Evans and XVells also had very credit- able debates. The order of debate was as follows: Allen, Franks and Evans for the afhrrnative, and Spiegel, XVells and Sterrett for the negative. Wfe hope that the debates in years to come will be as successful as the debate of 1911.
