The largest crowd that has yet attended the vesper services heard Dr. HuUey's address on the saito- ject of "Fraternities" last Sum- day. A clear presentation of both sides of the question resulted in the ultimate belief by the majority of those who attended that the fraternity has a place in college life which can not be contested- The fraternity. Dr. Hulley pointed cut, serves a number of purposes. It promotes the happiness of its members; it stimulates scholarship; it provides a social life; and it encourages fine firiendships- The fraternity thus gratifies the social instincts off the college mem, maintains good fellowship, and often steadies the weaker members. One of the disadvantages of fraternal organizations is showm by occasional snobbishness among themembers. A smle went around the auditorium as Dr. Hulley commented upon the absurd deference PHI PSI OPEN HOUSE TRI-DELTS RECEPTION M.anv Students Present- Rehearsals for the one-act plays which are to he given on the eveniiig' off Klovomtor 24th„ im the University Auditorium, are progressing nicely.

Also, firaterni- ties sometimes destroy schoiar- sbip, create strafe im the college, amd lead to the piling up of expanses. Altho fraternities are not absolutely necessary feu* the colege life of any student, no other form of orgaraization can adequately take their place. Dr. Hulley showed why such substitutes as litearry Societies and political factions could not do this. The discussion was fforeefaly CKMidttded by an account of the results of amti-firaterjraaty legislative movements in Ohio,, Texas and Wisconsin- In these places investigations and debates resulted favorably for the fraternities in every instance, the opposation being overwhelaiiied. The subject of next Sunday's address will be "Athletics," a question of no less interest than that of fraternities. Every student should make it a point to be present.
