To close the year, the Euphradian society had a grand mock ses sion Saturday night. The grave tipper classmen were deposed and the freshest of the fresh usurped their places. "Fresh" Rollins, clad in a royal bath robe as variegated as Joseph's coat, pre sided with extreme dignity; wvhile the ever-smiling McTeer held dlown the job of literary critic. The deb)ate far excelled any hitherto stagedl. The subject, "It is better to have loved andl lost, than never to have loved at all," wvas wvell supported by men of experience, Smoak and Bes singer. Their opponents, Boyleston and M. Mitchell, have undoubtedly p)assed through unsuccessful expe riences in that line as the tenor of their remarks show. It is wondler ful howv much can~ be brought out on both sidles by men of such great experience. There is one thing that bo0th debaters andl audlience are thankful.. for: very little could be hleardl on account of the hilarity of the members. Many gems of wis clom, epigrams and poetry, issued forth from their inspired tongues. But the hit of the evening was the weekly orator, Hemphill, with the interesting subject, "Why All the Girls Like Me." His answer, in short, was that it was as unsolv able a mystery as the Sphynx. His address resembled him, inasmuch as it vas pithy and to the point. The seniors are to be congratu lated on actually doing worse than the worst freshman. This is well nigh an impossibility, but neverthe less true. It is wonderfull how bad they really were. After such pun ishment the mouth had such a sour taste that castor oil seemed like Olympian ambrosia and heavenly nectar. Although the meeting was en joyable it is to be hoped that it will not happen again. SENIOR CLASS WINS CHAMPIONSHIP CUP (Co:.tinred from Page 1.) gainer was Edwards.
