business should cease If I the faculty pays no attention to this editorial spoken in the name of the student body the matter mater wilt will wil have to tobe tobe tobe j be taken up from another direction Roasted Boasted the Regents The second editorial complains that the highest type of college spirit can cannot cannot cannot not be maintained until we have hav a faculty of teachers as well wal as of schol scholars scholar ama ars ar The editorial concludes thus It I seems that there are not many such ouch great types type of ot manhood manh and vo I manhood In the country at least not

faults in the I faculty in the hope that they might be I remedied He felt fel that he had a a lofty I mission to perform and he was as trying I to perform it It I The trouble is according to students 1 that two or three of the professors do donot donot I Inot not show the warm sympathy with wih the students student which it is held they should sh uld President Kingsbury KIngsbur said last even cven evening I ing InS that one of the professors included in this disapprobation of the student took this thi attitude with wih d ri motive I This professor profess r is one of the most In Intellectual intellectual men me we have said President Kingsbury Kingsbur He Is a a fine teacher but buthe buthe buthe he believes that young men and women In the university should not be he cod coddled coddled dIed but should get a n taste of what they will wJ meet later after ter going out In Inthe Inthe inthe the world Therefore he does it t tot t at attempt attempt attempt tempt to be
