 £ ur iHotto Tired :m l carewbrn—disheartened l»v their repeated discouragements, the Carthegeninn soldiers slowly make their way up the Alps. Now they halt, and Hannibal, their great leader, inspires his loyal followers with the words. “lie vond the Alps lies Koine.'' Ihiring the past four years, as we. the 1912 class, have been moving slowly upward, these wolds have been before us. When a difficult problem has been before us. when we have been discouraged and disheartened, these words have ,-ome to US with a double meaning. We have realized that each day has its Alps to cross and each day has its Koine. First the struggle, and then the calmness that follows a well-earned victory. And now we have graduated and the question .•.mies Will there be no more difficulties, no more barriers to overcome, no goal to beckon us on to gieater things and greater success? Surely we are to prepare tor a greater climb and our future hopes are the same as Hannibal's and his soldiers, for when they had reached Rome, it was then that they realized even greater difficulties lay before them, and they never though of saving. “There is nothing left to do. But the very greatness of their past exploits began soon to awaken in their hearts an ambition to go on and on and undertake the ac- complishment of other deeds of daring and glory—to reach one goal only t start for another. Debating Again the god of victory smiled upon us. Our debating team defeated tin Juniors 3 to 0. No one ever dreamed that the contest would ever result other than as it did. I seemed that victory laughed aloud when we defeated the Freshmen 2 to 1. The Presides, who ceitainly put up a hard light for the cup, succeeded in proving the “Sophomore Hoodoo’ to be a myth and. since they have three year:- more to be at Weber, we expect to see three ’lo’s on the t rophy. Kasius. Critchlow and Fletcher, our team, worked hard, and we owe them our thanks. It is good to know that there are two '12's oil the debating cup. f'tcK.iMUs. Davtd Fletcher.
