The Kent club had a very exciting session on last Saturday morning. The question for debate was: "The United States would be justified in going to war with England in order to uphold the Monroe doctrine." The affirmative and war side was ably represented by Messrs Cowden and Gear, and from the hearty applause that followed each speech it appeared that the members were willing to shoulder the musket on the spot. This, however, is no reflection on the negative side of the question, for it was up held in eloquent speeches by Messrs. Kingsley and Watson. After the debate the election of officers, who will guide the destinies of the Kent club for the next four weeks, was held and resulted as follows: President, C. H. Elting; Vice-President, J. F. Jacobs; Secretary, D. D. Gear; Sergeant-at-arms, Foresman.
