posed of students who come from certain localities, such as the Easterners' Club, the Shomeez Club Miscellaneous (Missouri), the Egyptian Club (Southern Clubs Illinois), the Dixie Club, the Hoosiers' Club, etc. These organizations do a certain part in making life more pleasant for students who come to the University from distant localities. The University is growing so rapidly and the student body is becoming so large that the problem of unifying the students in any beneficial way is becoming a very difficult one. Undoubtedly the student organizations contribute a great deal to the handling of this problem, and it seems not at all undesirable that every student in the University should be allied with some organization that is in turn allied with the best interests of the University. Each freshman, at any rate, can make no great mistake by casting his lot with some reliable University organization and accepting what help it has to offer him, until he becomes well enough acquainted with college life to find his way easily himself.
