ON Wednesday, October 4, the first regular meeting of the Debating Society for ’93 and ’94 was held at the High School, in the assembly hall. The offi- cers previously elected for the meeting were Miss Bemis, ’95, president; Miss McGovern, ’95, vice-president ; Miss Walsh, ’94, secretary; and Mr. Thompson,’94, treasurer. The meeting opened with a short entertainment of de- clamations, which were very well rendered. The debate then fol- lowed, the subject being, “Re- solved, That a business man should have a college education.” The debate was very, interesting. The remarks were to the point. The board of decision, consisting of Mr. Thompson, ’94, Mr. Flow- ers, ’95, Miss Hall ’94, Miss Pope ’94, and Miss McGovern, '94, de- cided in favor of the negative. Miss Lowe, the critic, made an ex- cellent report, which was accepted. The society extends a cordial wel- come to its friends to be present at its meetings, which occur every sec- ond Wednesday, from 12 to 12.45 p. m. MCG. “Take care of the minutes and the hours will take care of them- selves.” This is an admirable thought, and might well be recalled to mind when we begin to be “weary in well-doing” from the simple fact that there is much to be done. The present moment is all we need to consider, in any sense. The past cannot be recov- ered ; while the future is too dark to penetrate. For the moment at hand there is sufficient work. If one is sent on a journey, ic must be ac- complished step by step until the end is reached. By stopping to calculate at the present time the work of the hours, one is soon tired. In looking ahead to the future, remember that we have not to en- dure all toil and losses at once. One burden comes, then goes, and the next moment it is succeeded by another. Let us remember that now is the time. “Wisely improve the present, it is thine; go forth to meet the shadowy future without fear and with a manly heart.” What better words of council for us all than these beautiful lines of Longfellow? f. Owing to the fact that many did not wish to take Drawing this year, the course was made optional for the classes of ’94 and ’95. Plans were made by the different pupils to spend this time in various ways, and it was with great surprise that all those not included in the Draw- ing list were summoned to a class- room on Wednesday morning. Knowing looks were exchanged and whispers went around, but all doubts were blotted from their minds when, on arriving in the class-room, they were told that they would form a class of journalists. The teacher in charge explained that every Wednesday, at this reci- tation, a subject would be given out, and fifteen minutes would be devoted to writing an article upon that subject, without any previous
