While a student, Fishback was noted for his marked ability; he possessed considerable oratorical power, and was a general favorite among the students.
Music is an educator. It is potent against evil. In the home where music is there are bright eyes, happy faces, and harmonious spirits. David took his harp to drive the evil spirit away from Saul. The Germans have a proverb that where music is not, the devil enters. Nothing will drive impatience, restlessness and disorder from the school room as will music, and in their places it brings patience, study, and order. Music should be heard, if not taught, in every school in the land.
"Music is a fair gift from God, and near allied to divinity."
Students, do not be in a hurry to get through your studies. If rightly improved, every moment of University life will bring abundant reward.
