ference ? What is its purpose, and
how does it effect us ? It is a gath
' ring each summer of students from
rthe colleges and prep, schools. The
purpose of the gathering is to train
men in the methods of association
work, to inspire in them a more
wholesome and vigorous college
spirit, to bring them in contact` with
men from other colleges that they
may. interchange ideas and view
points, to show them their ielation
as college trained men to the world
and its problems, and to give them
a vision of the altruistic and unselfish
life that will fit them for the most
efficient - and far reaching after life.
With such aims and purposes the
