THE NORMAL RECORD. Senate was effected and several bills were introduced. At the next meeting the bills were taken up and discussed in the order of their introduction. Senator Hendricks of Kentucky introduced a bill to allow all farming implements to come into the U. S. free of duty. This bill required a long discussion, and was passed by a small majority. The debates upon both sides of the question brought forward the individual capacities of the younger members of the Senate very markedly, and the debate waxed warm and vigorous. The speech by the Senator from Kentucky in support of his measure was one of which the society felt proud, and many congratulations were given to the young members who talked so well, some for the first time. Nothing does the heart of an old Y. M. N. D. man so much good as to see the new boys take hold of the work so earnestly, for he realizes the good to be derived from such experience. Senator Hoffman of California made a speech in support of his bill for Pacific Coast Defense, that would not have been out of place in the halls of Congress. The bill has not been voted upon yet, and is, therefore, still open to debate at the next meeting. The members of the society are much indebted to our Hon. Representative, Marion De Vries, who had the kindness to send us the Congressional Record for this session of Congress. LOBBY NOTES. Senator Guill has just arrived from Idaho, and his hair shows long and woolly, typically Western. The Senator from Kentucky has learned, since the first meeting, from what State he has been elected. The Senator from New York has condescended to stay in the hall when Senators appear from '' farmer '' States. Senator Glover says that he believes in protecting infant industries, but when they begin to wear a No. 10 boot, then he is opposed to protecting them longer. ATHLETICS. Where are our athletics this month ? We see but the tennis courts occupied by a few now and then. Why not see the foot and basket balls rolling about our fields ? The only answer that is given is, '' We were below.'' It must have been too much muscle and not enough brain. We must not carry on our physical exercises at the expense of our mental work, nor our mental work at the expense of our muscular exercise. Both of these must work together. Have them balance and harmony will result. The athletics should be a means by which we can do better and stronger work in the class room. A sound physique should accompany a sound mind. With some of these points in view, let athletics be upheld. Turn loose the base ball; bring out the bats ; fill up the baskets once again and let the courts be filled every evening, and the foot-ball ground inhabited. With a spirit of accomplishing good work, all around, let us begin this year ana make it a successful and creditable one, both to ourselves and to the school. ALUMNI NOTES, Miss Lucy Mount, who has been teaching in Igo, is now in Chico. Mr. George Culver is home in Chico, after having finished a successful term's teaching in Trinity County. Mr. Perry Hendricks, who taught in Paradise, has gone to Berkeley. Ed. Williamson, Lloyd Picotte and Levi How- land are home from Berkeley.
