...ability and will undoubtedly treat the subject under discussion in a manner which cannot fail to interest all who may attend the meeting. We understand that additional interest is lent to the debate from the fact that three of the speakers are ex-presidents of the Union while the fourth now holds that office. We fear that too little attention is given to public debate while in college by those who propose to pursue a public life. Certainly too or at stress cannot be placed upon the value of the train-acquired by such discussion. We therefore stoutly recommend...

His subject was the Tiber, etc. It is surprising to learn that almost one thousand volumes have been written about this famous river.
