In the first play, the act­ing of M. Locard, instructor ofFrench in the Hyde Park HighSchool. and that of Mlle. Valcourt,directress of the company. was afeature.Much additional interest wasaroused as several of the Universityclasses in French have just com­p1eted the study of "La Joie FaitPeur."

COJUIDIl 4.jective way, not as being worthy inthemselves of her eneru andthought, but merely as being ameans of pushing forward a mem­ber of her fraternity. At class andother elections the fraternity mem­ber upholds her candidate, eventhough another girl might be farmore capable of filling the office.Upon the students individuallyalso the fraternity has a most un­fortunate influence. It narrowstheir sympathies: it makes themsnobbish. Young people are onlytoo prone to pass impulsive judg­ments and to form cliques on purelyarbitrary grounds. Fraternitiesonly further these tendencies; and,.where every influence should be forbroadminded and sympathetic judg­ment and human kindness towardall fellow students, they foster afalse standard of estimation, preju­dice and intolerance.Fraternities do not necessarilybring together congenial students.Most of the candidates for a fra­ternity are rushed in their fresh­man year and know little or nothing of the personnel of the societythey join before becoming a mem­ber of it. On the other hand. thechoice. of a candidate for rushingis the result of mere whim andcaprice. I have known girls toconfess that the great majority oftheir fraternity. sisters were uncon­genial to them, and they joined thefraternity simply for the sake ofbeing in one. Again, I have knowntrue and worthy friendships to bebroken up by the fact that one ofseveral friends joined a fraternity,wh.ereas the rest did not. Yetagain do I know of many caseswhere students are prevented fromassociating with such other stu­dents as they would. naturally . beintimate with and whose friend­ship would be a source of satisfac­tion and joy to them, from the factthat they belong to a fraternity andthat all their time for social inter­course is devoted to fraternity sis-ters.
