battle (Eolkge THERE’S a land where the sun throws his last parting rays, On a thousand green islands and bright gleaming bays, Sheds his last parting smile, ere he sinks to his rest, On glorious Seattle, the Queen of the West. Here science has set her fierce fires aflame. And built her a home in this temple of fame. Gee-hee. boys, gee-hah, and gee-hee and gee-hah, Hurrah for our College, hurrah, boys, hurrah! Here the monsters of oceans set gallantly forth For the wealth of the East and the gold of the North. Hither loud throbbing engines and proud swelling sails Bear the tribute of nations through billows and gales; Here the last waves of Empire have rolled to the West, And knowledge and sport find their haven of rest. Gee-hee, boys, gee-hah, and gee-hee and gee-hah, Hurrah for our College, hurrah, boys, hurrah! We shall build us our homes where our fathers before From wave, mountain and forest have wrested their store. For their blood in our veins like a swift flowing fire Makes our hearts thrill with hope that shall never expire. But never forget we were nursed at the breast Of our own Alma Mater, the pride of the W est. Gee-hee. boys, gee-hah, and gee-hee and gee-hah, Hurrah for our College, hurrah, boys, hurrah!

iEfturatimtal HJnralittJ HE object of education is the harmonious development of the whole man: The development of intellect, will and body. Yet the will needs training more than the intellect, and our higher institutions of learning ought not neglect the furtherance of this most important part of the work of education. It cannot be gainsaid that the emphasis laid upon moral training forms the most marked distinction between the true educator and the mere instructor. At the same time it is one of the most disquieting features of our age that §o many teachers of the higher schools have lost sight of this fundamental principle of education. It appears that both in Europe and America all idea of looking after the character of the students has been laid aside. The inevitable consequence of this plan must be a decline of morality among the rising generation, or to express it more mildly, and to employ the words of some writers, a lamentable disproportion between intellectual and moral progress. The existence of this disproportion is attested, first through the language of men of great educational ability when they say that our educational system is deplorable as regards morality; secondly, through the disappointment of even the boldest optimist when he seeks for moral growth. Indeed criminologists, and some publicists point to indications of moral decline in our leading institutions. The increasing number of divorces, the increasing number of dependent children along with the increasing club-life of men and women are cited as results of the decline of the moral sense of responsibility in our school rooms. The alarming increase in the number of suicides and murders indicates a gradual decline in the safety of human life and in the feeling of its sacredness. The growing extent of robbery and commitments for crime against property reveals either a lack of morality or rampant greed. The increasing expenditure for intoxicating beverages indicates the growing power of desire for mere stimulation of the nervous
