L.recently expressed their convictionXonda that Mon day examina­EDmaYSPOil tionsspoil Sunday as a daySunday Beat of rest. To the carelessstudent, the announcement of.:aMonday quiz brings 'a feeling of re­lief not unmixed with exultation.Having frittered away the hours ofstudy as the cigate played all thesummer time, he finds himself, likethe immortal prototype made fam­ous by Fenelon, without the fund offacts necessary to give him a com­fortable feeling when confronted bythe yellow book. Therefore, on Sun­day morning, the student settleshimself, like Sydney Carton, with awet towel around his throbbing tem­ples, and a cup of blackest coffeewithin reach, and prepares to spendthe day in cramming his brain asfull as possible.His neighbor, who is conscien­tious, has put away his books thenight before, and has resolved withSpartan fortitude not to consultthem until daybreak 011 Monday.· Ifhe is of Puritan ancestry he goes tochurch and tries to forget mundaneanxieties in a new realm of thought.But during the discourse he findshimself wondering how that theoremends, or what were the five causes ofa certain war, or perhaps he is sud­denly conscious of having forgottenan important construction. He goeshome by way of the park, hoping tofind rest in the companionship ofnature, but his anxiety regarding thenext day's examination is with himwherever he goes, and when later hetries to read the imp of worry seemsto perch upon every page.If the conscientious student couldbut look at the troublesome construc­tion, his mind would be eased, butthe tortures of conscience would thenbeset him. Feeling, therefore, thathe is between Scylla and Charybdis,he longs for the day to drag to aclose.When at last the day is over, both the student who has crammed andthe conscientious student are chafedand worn out by the fever of worryregarding the coming examination.No .one will deny that both- forph ysiological and psychological rea­sons, one day out of seven should bedevoted to serene contemplation andgrateful rest in order that the studentmay enter upon the duties of the n.ewweek, not only with energy, but alsowith zest, and this desirable end maybe greatly furthered by the avoidanceof Monday examinations.NEWS FROM THE UNIVERSITIES.The interclass baseball champion­ship of Stanford was won by thesen ior team last week.The nursing staff in connectionwith the University of Michigan hos­pital consists of forty-four women.The Harvard debating team coachfor this year's team which meets Yaleis Mr. A.
