Ten years ago, the action of a group of Varsity athletes in declaring form- ally against drinking and the minor vices would have startled the cam- pus. Possibly it would have occasion- ed a liberal share of ridicule. More probably it would simply never have happened. It is doubtful whether any body of men, at that time, would have dared to assume the task of putting its convictions on a mooted question-. of morals up to serve as an example. But such a declaration of principle has been made within the last few days, and nobody seems to be particu- larly surprised. It fits in with the general trend of present-day thought so well that it is regarded as rather natural. Instead of being shocked or disgusted, the student body is impress- ed. Not all agree with the sentiment of the athletes, but everyone must ad- mit that the tendency is toward a more wholesome way of regarding retarding habits. The move is significant, however much to be expected, and, as its lead- ers must certainly hope, it will have a notable effect. Freshman dreams of wealth and glory are disappearing in proportion' to the number of scenarios returned in pristine condition. Majestic Thleafer. George W. Moore juggled, Hawley and Hawley giggled, and Belmont and Harle sang for Majestic patrons last night. Charles W. Bowser and com- pany presented a snappy melodramat- ic sketch, and the Jungman family skillfully performed on the tight wire.

Wom- en who wish to take part may also vol- unteer through that medium, and chairmen of committees are ask- ed to hand in complete lists of their committees, with. their names and ad- dresses, through it.

As an innovation to be introduced iri this year's May Festival concerts, two choruses of children will sing with the regular choral union, rather than in an independent concert, as has been the practice in former years. One chorus will be composed of school children, trained by Miss Flor- ence Potter, supervisor of music in the schools, and will appear in the "The Children's Crusade." The other, made up of choir boys in the Epis- copal and Congregational churches, will be coached by Prof. Reuben Kempf to take part in the "The New Life."
