Thousands of men and women in the United States recall their membership in the Greek letter fraternities as one of the most enjoyable and profitable features of their college life. Longafter the last traces of memory of the Greek conjugation have vanished, after the Odes of Horace and the swinging lines of the AEneid have faded into the irrevocable past; after all mathematics but the rule of three has lapsed into the secret recesses of the mind; after the finer classifications of the "genus" and "species" have given place to such everyday terms as "mud cat" or "dog fennel;" after all these and a hundred other once important departments of learning have been forgotten, still the recollections of the fraternity, the jolly meetings in the old hall, the exclusive pienics and parties: the dinners, cheap but seasoned with wit and warm geniality; the solemn advice to the erring brother, the sitting up at nights with the unfortunate of the number who fell sick, the anxiety to outdo all rival fraternities in securing good men who entered college, the throb of pride when one of "our boys" won a prize or some special college honor-these things remain as vividand fresh in the memory as though commencement day were only yesterday. -Indianapolis News.
