Although this is our third issue, the exchange editor appears before you for the first time. This column, for this is all our dictatorial editor-in-chief sees fit to place in our charge, will be devoted to the review and criticism of our contemporaries in the amateur college journalistic field.
PINCOTT.
This column should be an important factor in all college journals. And yet it is too often slighted. Abuse, not criticism, is too often the prominent feature. Harshness, vulgarity, slang and sarcastic remarks frequently take the place of just and friendly criticism. We will endeavor as far as possible, to be free, just and honorable in all our criticism which should tend toward mutual improvement. With this brief salutatory we bid you welcome to our exchange table.
Among the most welcome visitors and most readable exchanges which comes to our table is the University Voice. With strong editorials, productions of literary merit and a good local and personal column it comes as near to an ideal college journal as any of our exchanges.
The College Message was also one of the first to reach our table. Published in a neighboring State we cannot help having a feeling of distant relationship. A short article on "Popular Opinion" is of considerable merit. Don't be to prejudiced in your religious convictions as your attack on one of your exchanges plainly shows. All men have a right to their convictions, therefore be lenient.
The Niagara Index is always a, come early and go late exchange, such is its value. The exchange editor seems to be having a controversy already with some of its exchanges. We don't want to stick a finger in the pie, but do not try to be sarcastic. Be critical, but be an ideal critic. This antagonistic spirit of yours will keep your hands full. Excuse us for our interference and advice.
The late number of the Illini was unusually interesting in point of contents. An article on engineering is of great merit and shows a large acquaintance with the system of drainage and sewerage.
The little Hillsdale Herald bobs up serenely well filled with advertisements. Good reading matter nevertheless and very acceptable.
One of our exchanges sums up the opening of the college year in a very expressive little editorial. It runs in this oratorical strain: "Vale! Ye dreamy days of fair vacation, ye dulce memories of summer outing and all the idle joys that college youth is heir to. Once again are we slaves to a hord of petty text books and tyrannical profs.
J. P. Haynes, of Galveston, Texas, a colored student at Dartmouth Medical College has been appointed Demonstrator of anatomy at that institution. Thus the colored race progresses.
THE State of Michigan on the 9th of this month put into effect the recently amended scientific temperance instruction law.
The College Y. M. C. A. meets on every Friday evening.
It provides that lessons must be given concerning the injurious effects of narcotics and alcoholic liquors on the human system. The instruction will be given by text book and the amount of space and time which must be given the subject is established by law. All Boards of Education are subject to fines for the non-compliance to the provisions in this law. This is a very wise move on the part of Michigan.
By teaching and training the youths concerning the injurious effect which narcotics will have on the man, both physically and mentally, is the only way to keep the majority of boys from indulging in these destructive agents. All States should pass and enforce some such provision.
Students' Views.
One thing this fall which has been sorrowfully noticed by all old students and must have been a source of great surprise to favored (?) new students, is the extreme rushing carried on by our fraternities. When I say fraternities, I include the lady organizations which are, perhaps even more noticeable for their rushing and spiking than the gentlemen fraternities. A prepossessing new lady student is at once seized on, introduced to the ladies and to the good gentlemen friends of the fraternity. She is walked with and talked with, feted and feasted by each fraternity in turn; flattered and carassed but "just please put on the colors."
This matter of rushing is being carried on to a remarkable and alarming degree. It is ruinous alike to the rushed and the rusher. Time, money and sometimes honor is spent in frantic attempts to win the desired member.
Fraternity men and ladies will all admit the serious harm, but "we have to do it; all the other frats. do and we have to rush hard or get left."
A defect of this kind can not continue to exist. If not checked, more, if not crushed entirely, it will destroy our fraternities here.
The frats. must learn that conservatism is essential to high standing and superiority, that quality not quantity will win.
