SLRNDAY, JANUARY 12, 1908.
After all, there is only one considera-
lion sshichi should earry weight withi us
iii facing thlat fearful Coinference qiles-
tioin. Weomeaisthcis onsidleratioinsit

no the best sort of athletics-athletics
which are leatn, anid fair, aiid propor-
liaosed to the other tphases oif our col-

fore us-the cast and the west. Cool-

of freedomt in actionl anid thought, free-

custom eveni. It is ini the wsest that we
save devoted our energies to establish-
ig saiser athiletic coiiiitioiss. The cioi-
sequnce is that higher standards pre-
rail lhtre than in the east. To throsw
ioir further fortiiies with list easterii
organization would be to retrograde
ethically, for we should lie countencancing
staindarids which n-c know to he lower

Bet on the other hand, we hasvc stepped
out of the procession of "reforns" in the
Western Consferensce for which we our-
selves had at first played the big drumi.

it went too fast for us, and moreover,
that it was taking the wrong directioii.
