ing, but more questions of statecraft and high finance have by this time been settled than Bible or Patterson ever dreamed of. And they are all at it. Inter-collegiate material fills the cup and spills over the brim. In the event of an inter-collegiate debate, by way of doing the opponents scant justice, the choice of a team is made by lining up all the men of the student body and delegating a cross¬ eyed young lady of the Sophomore Class to throw stones at them with her left hand. There is more science and art at every turn. And more artful¬ ness? Well now, that is a different matter, perhaps. Carlyle main¬ tains that there is strict democracy among artists of all periods. Artfulness does not admit of comparisons. Greater dexterity in these latter days? It was only remarked that there are better tools. A more sturdy bending to the race and a more sinewy knotting of the muscles? A smoother course to follow, that is all any one was saying. A truer devotion to God and fellowmen? The only hope is that some of the cobwebs may through the years be swept away to afford a clearer vision of God, and that the zeal of human fellow¬ ship shall be tempered by a fuller knowledge. No, no! Park Col¬ lege will never run clean away from its past. It scorns to run any new year in the old ruts, but it lives each year to bring its past to fruition. The sons are proud to reap where the fathers have sowed, and to sow again in their turn. J. E. McAfee. ’89. Heating and Mackay Lighting I lant Snyder
