Mr. Oliver responded very
forcibly its Sophomore declaim-
er. Mr. Brand, ns Junior ora
tor, gave us a history of the
Mormons. Mr. Wootten was
Senior orator, and reasoned
quite logically on the Phillipine
question.
It was moved by Mr. Tison
and carried that the President
appoint a committee to look in
to th<“ advisability of having an
honor roll for those men who
have represented the society du

some badge of distinction.
