A Modern Cicero 4 Wi T was night, and I was hard at work. Suddenly a cold, clammy hand was V placed in mine and I beheld opposite me - -l the manikin from the Q ' ai Science Lab. With a contemptuous glance-heightened by the gleam I :L from his dissected eye-he stretched forth his left arm, from which the muscles hung in strips. Write as I dictate, came the command from his repulsive tongue. if I obeyed. How long, ye college maids, will ye continue to abuse your I-louf Committees patience? I-low long will your impudence balk them? To what end does J cu. .inrestrained audacity vaunt itself? Does not the vigilance of proctors, the fear of punishment, or the many house-meetings baffle you? Do you not see that your self-government is at stake? Ch the times! Oh the customs! Our president knows it, our girls all see it, yet it goes on. Goes on? Nay, more-it even flourishes and grows stronger. There Inu been-aye haf been- once a time in this school when the faculty had control, but alas! 'tis a thing of the past. 'Twas in the days of yore! I-lave they allowed the edge of their authority to grow dull? A decree has gone forth severe and weighty: it is not the laws that are at fault, you-you - I say it openly-you students are at fault! You live, and you live not for abolishing, but for spreading the evils. Oh ye immortal gods-not one law violated, but many,-all. Do you dare deny it? Why are you silent? Here, here, right in your own members, your own hall, these vices flourish-mid- night spreads, lights after tardy, whistling and shrieking in the halls, lateness to dinner and breakfast and so - I made a noble effort to rise in defence of my beloved schoolmates. Something held me down, and with one mighty scream, I awoke. 20
