It ia plain that the rule which is
agreed upon should not have force
until next term, at which time
neither side can foresee what ita in
terest will be. Such will be a fair
and impartial course to all con
cerned.
We make the suggestion then
that a mass meeting of the students
of the University be called at an
: early date to take action on the
point of what shall be the qualifica
tions of a voter in the class elections.
If this matter recommends itself
to the judgment of the students, as
lit doubtless will, a call for such a
meeting as described, stating time
and place, will be published in the
next isstieof this paper.

A UKMKDV FOK A TROUBLE
SOME QUESTION.
If the continual disputes which
have marked every election of class
officers held in the University
during the past two years are not
done away with entirely next term,
it will lie the fault of the students
themselves for failing to pursue a
plan which was suggested the other
day by a friend of the paper. This
plan is such a simple, practical and
effective one that a bare mention of
it is sufficient recommendation.
Every squabble in class elections
lias been tiio direct result of the
fact that there is no adopted rule
by which to determine the class to
w hieli an elective student belongs.
It is the prevailing rule at present
that an elective student belongs to
the class with which he has the
greatest number of recitatii but
this rule never having received the
formal sanction of the student liody
it is frcqacntly denied and disre
garded hy those who find it their
interest to do so.
Hence it must be obvious that in
order to obviate the difficulties
which arise from this cause, the
students of the University must as
semble and formulate in mass meel-
ing a rule by which the important
question of the class to which an
elective student belongs will be
completely and forever settled.
It must be understood at the same
time that the law which is adopted
in this mass meeting is not to go
into operation until the coming
term in September, otherwise this
meeting will witness the efforts of
the opposing sides to establish a
rule for their own benefit, and not
line that will have for its only ob
ject to simplify the questions that
have hitherto made class elections
so unsatisfactory.
Base ball in the North has been
the only theme of thought so to}
speak, ever since the Yale-l'rinceton i
foot-ball contest last fall. It is a
fact worthy of note that these great
colleges (which are no greater than
ours only in numbers and college
spirit) commence calculating on the
next season’s athletic contests, as
soon as one of defeat or even vic
tory has closed, and in accord with
this desire for victory they immedi
ately repair to their training quar
ters for the requisite skill to carry
off the laurels in the battles to
: come.
While the candidates for the
teams of these colleges are trudging
through the snow and ice on their
hare and hound races to pul them
selves in proper condition for prac
tice, our men are lagging about on
the streets smoking cigarettes, with
apparently no intention of going
into training at all. Now tins spirit
cannot build up college athletics in
the South.
Here we have every advantage
over the North in field sports. Our
climate is most perfectly adapted to
the training for these contests, and
we should have energy and ambition
enough to cope with them in this
manly strife. Students of the Uni
versity of Georgia, throw off your
lazy caps and pul forth your enthu
siasm, and aid iu every possible way
in the demand for a first class base
ball nine. Our prospects for a bat.

answer the question and state posi
tively that no action has been taken.
Now isu t tins a deplorable state of
affairs when we come to consider
that the first of February is upon us
with the most perfect weather and
no step taken? lit is proposed local!
a mass meeting of the college next
Tuesday morning to discuss this sub
ject and probably take action on the
management and the proper course
to pursue during the season to make ;
it one of success.- Lt everv feiiow
who has a word to say 011 this sub
ject come prepared to express his
thoughts concisely and to the ad
vantage of the l uiversitv ami above

partisan feeling.
ANNALS OF TIIK GLEE CLUB.
(Selecting the Club.)
1. Left aiogne,
First we asked a young man from Cologne
If he could sing “Birdie, iny Ogne;”
He unbuttoned his vent
And sung with a zest,
When every one fled with a grogne.
2. I wonder Whioux?
Then a buck from the Alagah Sioux
Volunteered to sing all that he knioux;
At his “After the Hall"
The police made a call,
So lie swiftly and lightly withdrioux.
3. A Kefruesne.
Our third was a youth from Dttqucsnc,
Who could shriek like an F. F.V. treusne
So we said: “Here, you cub.
You must sing on the club,”
And he did it aguesne and aguesne.
4. Exactly seaux.
The last was a dude from Bordeaux
Whose lays bubbled over with weaux;
At his “Garden of Sleep”
E’en the Freshmen would weep,
So we kindly but firmly said : “Neaux.”
