Last winter a serious attempt was made by certain churchmen in the University to require the compulsory attendance of Freshmen at Chapel for a portion of the year. It was believed that many men failed to attend chapel for no other reason than that they had never attempted to cultivate the habit. Although this attempt to secure some form of compulsory chapel was undoubtedly wisely defeated before it had much more than originated, the desirability of remedying conditions which annually cause many men to state that they have never been possessed of even sufficient curiosity to enter the chapel once in their four years, still remains.
Tomorrow has been proclaimed by the President of the United States a day upon which all churchmen shall congregate and offer prayers for peace. Whatever one's faith in the efficacy of prayers there is no doubt but that indirectly through the effect on the men themselves such a proclamation can result in great good. There could be no more auspicious occasion for all those who have as yet failed to attend service to begin the cultivation of the habit than tomorrow,--Peace Sunday.
