One of the pleasantest features of college life is the opportunity we have of meeting fellows from all parts of our country. Not only is it pleasant, but also it serves to awaken us to the realization that the universe is not centred around any one place, be it in New York, in Boston, in San Francisco, but it is one vast organization which will continue to exist, even of some of those parts which seem to us the most vital are lopped off. We enjoy some of the benefits of travel, even while anchored in one place. We meet fellows from all parts of the country who differ from each other in ideas, in customs, in manners, and even in dialect. Our country is so large that we are like the nations of Gaul, of whom Caesar says,-what school boy will ever forget the sentence? -Hi omnes lingua institutes, legibus inter se different.
