EARL KIMM Gormox ALDERMiXN There is nothing more useful to an individual than the ability to express himself correctly and distinctly in public as well as private life. Speech is the golden harvest that followeth the flowering of thought, says Tupper. It is in a literary society that this ability can best be cultivated and any student, whether he is a recognized public speaker or not, is urged to join one of the literary societies in which he may receivethis valuable training. The Decameronian Society has a membership of fifty-one students who are cooper- ating and earnestly striving to make their motto, Ad Astra Per Asperaf' the true aim of the society. Pagl' 84

Quenrm SOMMERFELD HAROLD VV1LLmMs The late Senator Hoar, who was an influential potentiality in Congress, declared when he was advanced in years: The longer I live, the more I have come to value the gift of eloquence. Every American youth, if he desires for any purpose to get influence over his countrymen in an honorable way, will seek to become a good public speaker. The literary societies were fundamentally created in order that the students might have an opportunity to develop this eloquence. For this reason, each student who would become a leader should join a literary society, that he may make valuable use of every opportunity to attain poise and confidence. Page 85
