The present system of prayers was the result of a movement among the students, and with the students alone rests the question of success or failure. The members of the lower classes may not feel the weight of the responsibility as much as do the members of the higher class; but they must remember that in their hands lies the future of the system.

It will be remembered that the concert given last year by the same organizations was an extraordinarily good one, and we feel safe in predicting that the concert of this year will be in no wise inferior. The object of the concert alone should be inducement enough to warrant a large attendance, and the low price of the tickets is within the means of most men. This is a very easy...
