Is the above decency according to the Journal's understanding? It does not take much nerve to stand upon the street and gaze into the windows of the private rooms of a hall, but it takes a large amount of "gall" to gloat over the fact in a daily newspaper. There was more loafing in the halls last Friday, than any day for a long time. Profs. Baily, Nichols, Williams, Dyche, and Sayre, and Franklin, were at Emporia, Prof. Robinson was sick, Prof. Marsh's classes were kept but a few minutes each, and Jenks' history class was dismissed early. As every student was compelled to come up the hill to attend chapel, and nearly everyone remained to get his Courier at the end of the fourth hour, one can imagine how many there necessarily would be who did not have anything to do.
