Freshman Debating Club.

The last weekly meeting of the Freshman Debating Club until after the mid-year examinations was held last evening in Sever 11. The question debated was: "Resolved, That the products of prison labor should not be allowed to compete in the open market." The attendance was slim and the speaking rather disappointing. Each side failed to arrange its arguments in anything like methodical order and there was a deplorable absence of rebuttal. Perhaps the selection of a very uninteresting question was partly the cause for the poor showing made. The negative had clearly the better preparation and received the decision of the judges.
