What better to this healthy process lends,

Than the critiques of Brothers and of Friends?

When the spruce Junior, not disposed to shirk,

Begins to get down fairly to his work,

Strives to run foremost in the college race,

Or at least fill a creditable place;

When he bears, o'er the rough and hard highway,

The heat and burden of the college day,

And hastes—his mental lungs all out of breath—

As if it were a race of life and death;
