University Reporter, 23 figure of Mr. Cooper, escorted by two fellow-Demostheninns, was seen coming down the centre aisle of the chapel. Such cheering as greeted his entrance had never before been heard in the chapel on a similar occasion; and it was but an indica tion of the greater applause which subsequently followed his able effort in defense of the side from which the appointed speaker was absent. It is almost unnecessary to say that that side won the question. Mr. Cooper has held many other offices of honor in the Uni versity. He has been an officer of the class of ’89, president of the Demosthenian Society, an officer of the athletic association, and lastly Vice-President of the college Y. M. C. A. But what of his future? Of this let time and its revelations speak. If the indications of college days count for ought, how ever, the brilliant success of Mr. Cooper in his chosen profes sion—that of law—is not for a moment to be doubted. A Uni versity boy said not long ago: “I’ll bet any thing I have that ‘ Bunk ’ Cooper will be the first member of the class of ’89, to reach the Georgia legislature.” As the eye of prophesy makes clear the vista of the future, we see in the days to come this prophesy as to the subject of our sketch realized, and beyond this we see in store for Mr. Cooper in the days to follow, a series of honors whose brilliancy shall by comparison consign the brightness of lesser lights to dark and impenetrable oblivion. Certain it is that his f uturs career will reflect nothing but honor and lustre upon the Demosthenian Society and the University of Georgia. EXAMINATIONS. Again we wish to call the Faculty’s attention to this much “mooted” question. Several important changes have been made recently. These changes show that our Faculty is abreast with the times and is willing to “do the right thing.” It is conceded by all that the present system is better than the old one in some respects, but there is still another step to be taken before our system becomes perfect. In place of the old monthly examinations we have written re views which may occur at any time of the month, and of which we have no previous notice.
