Most of the members of this society have returned to col- lege and the prospects for a success- ful year are bright. Although the society was organized only last April, it has held many in- teresting debates upon national sub- jects. Parlimentary law was also given considerable attention in all its meetings to the instruction of all the members. The debates take the form of discussions upon bills intro- duced by different members, each representing a certaim state. At most of the meetings last year, the question as to intervention in the affairs of Cuba was discussed and plans for the organization of our military forces considered. It is pro- posed to consider present national problems this semester. The menbership is limited to the number of states and territories in the Union, but at present there are several vacancies, which will be filled as soon as possible. Every one wish- ing to jolt the society is requested to attend the meeting Saturday morn- mg.
