Show EXCHANGE Fellow-students, it is to you who think the exchange column is waste of space in our paper that this paragraph is written. From our exchanges we get suggestions on how to improve, our paper; we find out what our good and bad points are and we have the privilege of telling others how they can improve their papers. We send "Acorns" to almost every state in the Union, and to some foreign countries. It is in this way that Weber has become known, and it is by exchanging that we let others know that we are alive and doing. We put forth our efforts to give impartial, helpful hints to our fellow-exchanges and we desire to be helped by suggestions from them. We are glad to make the following comments: Tenderfoot Salida, Colo.: Your athletic notes are well written. It is evident that your school is alive. Distaff Boston, Mass.: We have always had an idea that girls can put cut as good a paper as can boys; now we know that such thing is possible. Aegis Beverly, Mass.: A few cuts would improve your paper. You have a neat cover design. Punch Bowl Philadelphia, Pa.: Your paper is a great favorite with us. The contents are above the standard. We look forward to its coming with pleasure. Phillips Exeter Monthly You have some good story writers and poets. We are glad to welcome again, "Whims" Seattle, Wash: Your paper is beyond adverse criticism. Yeatman Life St. Louis, Mo.: The story "Raymond" is very, good. Too much space is occupied by Alumni Notes. Exponent- Oakes, N. D.: Evidently your editor does not feel his importance or his department would not be found the last in the issue. Phunisms A joke is really a joke If it makes you laugh till you croak. Now if at these you cannot laugh, You wrote them all (?). Don't blame the staff. BIG DEBATE. December 25, 1911.
