FRESHMAN DEBATING.

The attention of Freshmen who wish to make a start in a valuable college activity is called to the Freshman Debating Society, which organizes tonight. Debating is now completely an undergraduate matter; and as such it has risen in favor. Needless to say the man who debates in his Freshman year has the advantage in attaining University honors in that direction later.

The Society, however, will best serve its purpose, if besides giving training to the men interested in making the class or Freshman team, it will adopt a plan that will attract men who are not primarily interested in the debating as such, but who are interested in the vital national and international questions of the hour. It can do this best by choosing its subjects among these problems and by laying stress upon general discussion of them in a manner which requires previous thought and preparation.
