WHY DON'T THE OUT- OF -DqOR PLA Y\A. C.SPIRIT, WHERE By the Periwig Club Next WednesART THOU? AfifilES WIN? At the beginning of this year's season the football air that floated from the college hill WI\S quite refreshing. It was a wholesome breeze with an into; ·' cating odor. But like th e yo,rng man who staggered from merely stepping on a cork, 80 mc who whipped the breeze succumbed to its influence and in the reverly of imagination that accompanies intoxication, wild stories flew to the breezes which swelled it to wind, and the wind blew on. For those who do not know, this article is intended. Th e students who understand our present condition and know our past are not at a loss. The fact of the matter is that. our team this year is equally as prospective as it has ever been. •But our ineligible Freshmen, or our prospects for another year, are the real cause of the excess of talk at the begeinning. It should be borne in mind that heretofore we have used students of under Freshmen grade providing they filled other requirements. But now that we belong to the Colorado conference and the standard of our school is made equal to .any in the intermountain region, many who otherwise could have participated, 'now are ineligible. Also, already we have been up against the best teams in the country, which will do our team a world of good. Consider our past and the future is surely bright. With one at the head who is not surpassed in the west and a student body behlnd that cannot be duplicated, our team will scarcely know itself by Thanksgiving. We have not a quitter among us. There is but one ultimate end for such a body. Our defeats make us _good losers, strengthen us and make sweeter the final victory. In our game here with Wyoming in a week our team will give a good account of itself, and one week later we meet the Colorago AgJries here. After this date there is a brief period preparatory to the big Thanksgiving game. All of the Profs. were over two weeks lat e with their reoorts to President Widtsoe. Thank goodness the students aren't to blame.
We are all glad to see Cyril Owen over his sick spell and pack to school aa-ain,

The philo sophy of the above sentences ha s been made too much of in practice. In our daily struggle to "get there" the truth of the above lines has faced us often. Its meaning ls the result of our practical age. We have been born and bred in that atmosphere. We have taken the above philosophy too much for granted, and there is danger of its becoming one of our ethical laws. Did you ever notice how unconsciously you applaud a performer on the stage, just bec~use others are applauding him? We always like to follow th~ crowd . We never stop to thmk what the crowd is after. If you have ever watched a lyn~hing mob, you have surely noticed how passers by, without any knowledge of the case in hand, will join the wild chorus of "lynch him." We have very few men like Socrates in this age of ours, who will stop and thmk, and very few men with a strong backbone who will stop the mob and ask "why." ===============,;;,,========== I suppose many of you have SQLUrnNESS. player and later it would be had the experience of trying to found over by the opposite side- accomplish certain things.
