Editorial,

Each year the line of demarcation between the preparatory and collegiate department becomes more distinct. This shows growth and improvement. While there is much that may be justly praised, we fear that the preparatory department lacks organization, the source of all efficient work. No professor desires to teach students below the Freshman year. They have not yet formed their habits of study. They have not yet learned how to apply themselves, as they can after one or two years discipline. This discipline ought to be obtained in the preparatory department. It cannot be by ignoring it, considering it a sort of necessary evil. It needs through reorganization, separate tutors and professors.
