Two new -ones take their places in this issue on the staff, and three of the -former set are retained, but are assigned to new work. The -representatives of the Columbian Society do not go out till the last -quarter.

Write to the ARCHIVE, and in so doing you will furnish -entertainment to many a friend of your college days. We mean _you_. - - * * * * * - -That toy of modern linguists—Volapûk—is having a wonderful run with -publishers. Handbooks to it “now tread on one another’s heels.” The -American Philosophical Society, at a meeting last fall, appointed a -committee to examine into the scientific value of this “universal -language.” Their report points out the requirements for such a language, -and finds on comparing them with Father Schleyer’s system, that it is -“synthetic and complex,” and therefore unsuited to modern needs. - - * * * * * - -M. Renan has a picturesque way of putting things. In his “History of the -People of Israel,” (Vol. I, lately published) he says of David: - -“We shall see the _brigand_ of Adullam and Ziglag adopt by and by the -ways of a saint. He will be the author of the Psalms, the sacred -choragus, the type of the future Saviour. Jesus will be a son of David. -The pious souls who will find delight in the resignation and the -melancholy contained in the finest of liturgical books, will think -themselves in communion with this bandit. Humanity will believe in a -final justice on the testimony of David, who never thought of it, and of -the Sibyl, who never existed. _Teste David cum Sibylla!_ O divine -comedy!” - - - - - TWO SHAKESPEARIAN CHARACTERS - - -The Tragedy of Cymbeline was written during the latter ten years of -Shakespeare’s life and has much of the exquisite beauty and austere -sweetness of _Othello_ and _The Tempest_, which belong to the same -period. In structure this Tragedy is quite complex. There are in it no -less than four distinct groups of persons, all of whom, however, though -without any concert or common purpose, draw together with perfect -smoothness and harmony in working out the author’s plan. - -Of all the characters that acquit themselves in this drama, no two show -such different dispositions as Imogen and the Queen; for, wherever and -under whatever conditions they are found, antagonism in character is -sure to be shown. The leading purpose of the play is to be sought for in -the character of Imogen. She is an impersonation of the moral beauty of -womanhood. This beauty is the vital current of the whole delineation, -and everything about her, her form, her features and expression, her -dress, her walk, her every motion are steeped in its efficacy. This -virtue radiates from her on others and exercises a wonderful influence -on almost all about her. Already a wife when we first see her, Imogen -acts but little in any other quality; yet in this one she approves -herself mistress of that womanly perfection which would make glad the -heart and perfect the character of every one who stood in any -relationship with her. To make up a perfect woman, she possesses sound -judgment and decision of character, which are most admirably displayed -in her choice of a husband. Irrespective of parental desires and the -efficacy of royal blood, she wisely preferred a true, though humble man -to a royal personage that could well be regarded as a counterfeit of -humanity. Posthumus sprang of heroic stock. Having been left an orphan -at birth, he was taken by the king and grew up the foster-brother and -playmate of the princess; and their love, rooted in the innocence of -childhood, interlacing all their childish thoughts and pleasures, has -ripened with their growth; and now appears the settled habit of their -very souls. Cloten, whom she had the good judgment to refuse, was well -described when Mr. Hudson phrased him a “noble instance of a man or -thing, with not merely a loose screw in the gearing but with all the -screws loose.” He was, therefore, the last man that any body, of such -sense and refinement as Imogen possessed, could ever be brought to -endure. Her faithfulness is seen in her bearing Cloten’s persecutions -with patience, till he begins to abuse her exiled husband; then, true to -him who is a part of her very nature, she quickly turns upon Cloten, at -the same time regretting that he puts her to “forget a lady’s manners by -being so verbal.” That Imogen was sincerely virtuous is proved by the -fact that Iachimo, upon approaching her with evil intentions, was -compelled to exclaim, “Boldness, be my friend! arm me, audacity, from -head to foot!” Truly appropriate was this language, for having once -learned his wilful intention she with one word shattered his armor of -“audacity.” So great was the influence of her purity that Iachimo was at -once charmed and chastened, for “under the ribs of death” her moral -beauty had created a soul. And further is the truth of her virtue -confirmed when Iachimo discovers himself and speaks of her as “that -paragon for whom my heart drops blood, and my false spirits quail to -remember.” That her moral delicacy shrinks from the least atom of -untruth, is touchingly shown in this, “If I lie, and do not harm by it, -though the gods hear, I hope they’ll pardon it.” Imogen might don a -man’s attire, but her pure motives and God-given virtues had shaped a -heart that could not contain the sterner qualities of the other sex; and -so utterly did she fail in her attempt to appear as a man, that we find -wise and reverend manhood exclaiming at sight of her, “Behold divineness -no elder than a boy!” - -It might be with reluctance that we would turn from contemplating a -perfect character to look at the faults of an imperfect one, if we did -not first remember that the Queen possesses only those commonplace -elements of character that characterizes, though in a less degree, all -moral beings. But, since we are through natural instinct and acquired -inclination always ready to blame poor human nature, we cannot but give -vent to our feelings when we find so mean a grade as is possessed by -Cymbeline’s Queen. She is deeply false, false to everything but her son -and her own ambition. She has the king quite under her power, the lords -blame not the king for any wrong act, knowing that he sees only through -her eyes, acts only as she plans, and speaks only as she dictates. The -Queen has set her heart upon matching her son with the princess, who is -expected to succeed her father in the kingdom, not so much through love -for the poor clod, as that she knows him to be a clod whom she will be -able to control, and thus secure the continuation of her power. Perhaps -the depth of her character is not fathomed by all, and certainly not by -the king, until on her death-bed she reveals the most detestible -qualities of a corrupt nature. - -Thus it is seen that in these characters we have simplicity and harmony -of character, clearness of understanding, depth and purity of feeling, -the whole circle and aggregate of eloquent womanhood contrasted with a -character inconsistent only with the truth, vile deceit, a masculine -disposition combined with all that is complex, detestible and fiendish, -last, but most prominent of all, a woman destitute of womanhood. - - R. R. - - - - - Editorials. - - - ═══════════════════════════════════════════════╤═══════════════════════ - G. N. RAPER, _Columbian_, │EDITORS. - M. C. THOMAS, _Hesperian_, │ „ - -Some boys console themselves for their want of energy in study by the -fact that Patrick Henry, for instance, was a very poor student at -school, or that Byron, or some other illustrious character was the -poorest member of his class at College. They have the presumption to -imagine that, because they follow in school the example of Henry and -Byron, they will be as renowned in after life as an inevitable sequence. -They dream of doing great things bye and bye, but are very indifferent -about the present little things, which are the essentials of greatness. -Such boys forget to compare what Patrick Henry was, with what he might -have been, had he diligently applied himself at school. Therefore it is -no wonder that in after life they realize their mistake and exclaim -farewell, a long farewell to all my anticipated greatness! - - * * * * * - -That old bigot Berkley, governor of the colony of Virginia, once said, -“I thank God that there are no free schools, nor printing-presses, and I -hope we shall not have them these hundred years!!” It was thought that -this sentiment had long ago been eradicated from the minds of the -American people, especially of the higher classes, but it is a sad fact -that a few weeks ago an expression of like import was uttered even -within the halls of the United States Senate. Now, two centuries after -Berkley, a United States Senator says that, were he called upon to frame -a title for the Blair Educational Bill, he would call it an act to erect -a monument to Alexander Hamilton, and to encourage mendicancy in the -South. Such a sentiment as this needs no comment, for every man who is a -true patriot and has ever been outside of his own county will condemn -the Senator’s remarks upon him who first “smote the rock of national -resources and abundant streams of revenue gushed forth, who touched the -corpse of public credit and it sprang upon its feet.” - - * * * * * - -The primary object of a collegiate education should not be to educate -for the sole purpose of making money, but to educate for education’s -sake. The statement can be made, without too much self-laudation, that -many Southern boys give evidences of great original ability while at -college, but just as soon as they complete the course, too many think -only of making money, and therefore entirely neglect literary work. -Never can the South boast of a golden age of literature, nor can she -furnish her own text-books, until this mistaken idea of education is -driven out by the substitution of one which will give us a higher -standard of refinement, and make us independent so far as poetry, -history, fiction and text-books are concerned. - - * * * * * - -People cannot do without news, and therefore newspapers are necessary. -Furthermore, if their object be improvement in literary attainments, -they exert an indispensable influence for good. They unite the people -more closely, and have a great tendency to prevent sectionalism. But in -our modern newspapers there is too much of the sensational and of the -worthless. There is a continual contest between some papers to see which -one can give the best account of the most brutal murders. In addition to -this, every little thing, of no importance whatever, must be noticed, -and therefore it takes up the space which should be occupied by good -solid reading. Zeb. Vance can’t have a photograph taken, nor can -President Cleveland wear a plug hat without its being mentioned in some -newspaper. - -Wake Forest has sustained a great loss by the death of Prof. J. R. -Duggan. It is sad to see one so young and at the same time so promising -and so devoted to his profession, taken from the field of scientific -investigation. The President of his _alma mater_ said that he never -missed a college duty. This is a compliment which indeed only a very few -boys ever win. Punctuality is just as essential to success as a -knowledge of text-books. Had morning prayers no other object than to get -boys to conform to systematic habits, they could not be abolished -without detriment to the scholars. For the boy who learns to be punctual -at school will be so in life. - - * * * * * - -Many young men who read of the eccentricities and vices of men of genius -at once try to become eccentric by practicing the same vices. Some who -have morbidly sensitive dispositions, imagine that they are exactly like -Edgar Allan Poe, and determine to become poets. They let their hair grow -long, assume a dreamy expression of face, write poetry that is enough to -exasperate any man of sense, and because every body does not go into -ecstacy over their literary performances, talk about how inappreciative -the world has always been of the first efforts of genius. These same -young men will practice the vices of Goldsmith, Byron, Poe, and other -great geniuses of the past, and imagine that it is conclusive proof of -the fact that mentally they are like these great men. Some are always -trying to say something witty in a brusque way, because that was the way -Dr. Johnson did. Others imagine that they can never become lawyers or -politicians unless they get drunk occasionally. They say that Sheridan, -Webster, Prentiss, and other great orators drank freely. - - * * * * * - -It is a lamentable fact that a large number of the young men of the -present day who intend to enter the ministry seem to think it necessary -to be able to speak in a drawling, sanctimonious tone, until this method -of talking has been denominated the “clerical whine.” There is no reason -why a preacher should speak in the pulpit with an entirely different -voice from that which he employs on other occasions. The truth of it is, -some young preachers hear a man who has a big reputation as a preacher -speak with the nasal twang, and straightway fancy that they can never -become good preachers unless they can speak in the same way. Other young -preachers try to imitate Sam Jones, or some other popular preacher, -especially their eccentricities. The world makes allowances for the -eccentricities and vices of genius, but never countenances them in -mediocrity. The young man who thus tries to _ape_ other men, not only -loses the respect of others, but soon loses his own self respect. -Individuality is a characteristic of genius, so that a young man who -tries to imitate others proves by his actions that he is devoid of real -ability, and makes himself contemptible in the eyes of sensible people. -Every young man should determine to preserve his identity, and have the -stamp of individuality upon all his actions, and he will then at least -command respect, if he does not become distinguished as an eccentric -genius. - - * * * * * - -It is to be feared that stump speaking, in its highest and best sense, -is becoming a thing of the past. People no longer delight to hear the -great political questions of the day discussed in a sound, sensible -manner on the stump, but seem to have a morbid appetite for smutty jokes -and low buffoonery. The man who can tell the most anecdotes is the man -for the office. It is a shame for the citizens of a State to applaud the -vulgar jokes of men running for high offices. Such men deserve to be -frowned upon with the virtuous indignation and contempt of every true -citizen. It matters not how well they may tell their jokes, yet they are -corrupters of the morals of the young who hear them, and do injury to -the State in which they live, just in proportion to their talent and -influence. Why is it that we so rarely have discussions now to which -ladies can listen? Why is it that we do not have canvasses like that of -Prentiss in Mississippi years ago, when he stumped the State for -Congress, and the ladies turned out to hear the famous orator? Such -stump speeches as those made by Douglas and Lincoln in Illinois, and -Gov. Wise in Virginia, in which these great men discussed the political -issues of the country in a statesman-like way? Why was President -Garfield abused so outrageously by the stump speakers of opposite -political faith to him, and a few months afterwards, when he was -assassinated, lauded to the skies by the same men? Stump speaking in -these latter times seems to have been assigned, in the main, to the -lowest demagogues in each party, who see how much mud they can throw at -each other, and how many vile jokes and political lies they can tell. - - * * * * * - -The students of Trinity have in the past had the reputation throughout -the State of being good speakers. They should determine to maintain this -reputation. The way to do this is for them to take an interest in -Society work. Society training is an invaluable part of every young -man’s college education. No student should fail to improve the -opportunities offered to him in this line. There is nothing that should -be more congenial to a student who has any ambition than a good literary -society—a society where he can learn to express himself with ease and -fluency, with grammatical correctness, and rhetorical finish, where he -can learn to clothe his thought in appropriate language, where he can -cultivate his imaginative and reasoning powers. Some students seem to -think that because they gave not the rhythmic flow of language of a -Cicero, the information of a Burke, or the wit sarcasm and fluency of a -John Randolph, that it is useless for them ever to try to become -speakers. They seem to forget that no man can be a grand success right -at the start, and that persistent effort is required to succeed at -anything. Those who have no natural talent for speaking should be -encouraged when they think of Demosthenes and other great orators, who -possessed little natural powers of oratory. Let every student, at the -beginning of this new year, take more interest in society work, and -strive to become at least a moderately good speaker. - - - - - Reviews. - - - ═══════════════════════════════════════════════╤═══════════════════════ - D.

BASSETT, _Hesperian_, │ „ - - STUDIES IN ENGLISH AND AMERICAN LITERATURE, FROM CHAUCER TO THE - PRESENT TIME; WITH STANDARD SELECTIONS FROM REPRESENTATIVE WRITERS - FOR CRITICAL STUDY AND ANALYSIS. By Albert N. Raub, Ph. D., - Principal of the Central State Normal School, Lock Haven, Pa., and - Author of “Lessons in English,” “Practical English Grammar,” etc., - 468 pp. Cloth. Philadelphia. Raub & Co. 1887. - -This is one of the books “to meet a long-felt want.” The work is -intended not only to give a biographical sketch of the representative -writers, but also a criticism of their work, and, following this, a -masterpiece selected from each author’s writings, with such explanatory -notes appended as will lead the pupil to study more critically and with -more profit not only the beauties but also the defects, of his language. -It is a book on literature, criticism, and the literary analysis of the -English classics in one, and is an admirable supplement to the study of -both Rhetoric and English Grammar. The plan is the now so popular method -used by Kellogg, Swinton, and others, thereby giving this book many of -the excellences found in the works of those scholars. If, however, it be -pertinent to mention among its good qualities a defect, it may be said -that the number of American authors is out of proportion to the English, -thereby unduly emphasizing American literature. In the main, this is a -very good book, and is altogether worthy of the ready acceptance which -it is receiving in quite a number of our schools and colleges. - - * * * * * - - PRACTICAL RHETORIC AND COMPOSITION: A complete and practical - discussion of capital letters, punctuation, letter-writing, style - and composition. By Albert N. Raub, A. M., Ph. D., author of - “Lessons in English,” “Practical English Grammar,” “Studies in - English and American Literature,” “Methods of Teaching,” “School - Management,” etc. 320 pp. Cloth. Philadelphia. Raub & Co. 1887. - -In the preparation of this work the author’s aim has been to compile a -treatise on the subject of Rhetoric and Composition that may claim to be -wholly _practical_ and teachable. The arrangement of subjects varies -from the usual order, and to good purpose. The influence of the school -to which Bain belongs is made manifest to a great and quite beneficial -degree, giving the book characteristics worthy of great commendation. -Each topic or principle discussed is followed by copious examples which -are in the main fresh and apposite. “Letter-Writing,” while well -treated, is extended out of proportion to the rest. A great deal of -space is given in this work to Poetry. Since the appearance of the works -of Gummere, Mayor, and Schepper, the attempt to force Latin meter upon -the English accentual verse is unpardonable. On the whole, however, this -is a very good Elementary Rhetoric. - - * * * * * - - LIGHTS OF TWO CENTURIES: Edited by Edward Everett Hale. Illustrated - with fifty portraits. A. S. Barnes & Co. New York. 1887. 8vo. pp. - vi, 603. - -This work is a series of biographical essays comprehending fifty of the -leading artists, sculptors, prose writers, composers, poets and -inventors of the last two hundred years. It treats of those master -spirits who, in contradistinction to those who belonged to “schools”, -have caused by their individual efforts material improvements in their -respective spheres. The essays are written in a perspicuous and easy -style, although the matter is very condensed. They treat of the -subject’s life as directly influenced by his works, carry the reader -through philosophy, veiled by incident, and finally drop him much -pleased and wishing there were more. We may learn a little of our -national inclinations by looking over the Table of Contents. Among the -artists, sculptors and composers, not one American is found, showing -that in these features we are deficient. Among prose writers and poets, -America claims one each. But when we come to the inventors we find that -four of the nine, classed leading in two hundred years, were natives of -our one-hundred-year-old republic. An agreeable feature is the -pronunciation affixed to all proper names, so that we feel more at ease -when we meet in print our cousins from abroad. The portrait of each one -is given, and dubious points are explained in ample foot-notes. The type -is large and leaded, and the volume tastefully bound. - - * * * * * - - FIRST ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS OF THE STATE OF - NORTH CAROLINA, for the year 1887; W. N. Jones, Commissioner; - Josephus Daniels, State Printer and Binder. - -Besides following reports of other States as models, taking from each -that feature which he considers best, the Commissioner has introduced a -chapter on railroads, a feature by no means out of place. In chapters -III and IV, the agricultural interests receive their due share of -consideration. The chapter on Convict Labor, however, shows a deficiency -of information on the general subject, confines itself to opinions of -politicians, employers of laborers, and labor organizations, and lacks -statistics, which perhaps time may improve. For the first effort the -report is a very creditable affair. It is well indexed, and thus -rendered useful to general readers, all of whom can obtain it free by -writing to the Commissioner at Raleigh, N. C. - - * * * * * - -The first part of Whitney’s French Grammar, supplemented by -conversational exercises and lists of idiomatic phrases, has just been -brought out by Henry Holt & Co.

A. BARRETT, _Columbian_, │EDITORS. - A. M. SHARP, _Hesperian_, │ „ - -In the _Randolph-Macon Monthly_, for January may be noted the article -entitled “Hanover Court House,” around which cluster memories of Patrick -Henry; also “De Quincy,” in which the author gives a graphic criticism -of some of the “English Opium Eater’s” productions. But the most -pleasing feature of the periodical is a neat cut of Randolph-Macon’s new -gymnasium. This is a reminder that an article appeared in this magazine -last month relative to the advantages of a gymnasium. But it is an -established fact that a weak body and soft muscles will ever be a -serious hindrance to a strong mind, so too much cannot be said favorable -to that great agent of physical culture. No College can count itself -fully equipped without this very necessary feature. In the acquisition -of her “Physical Culture Hall,” Randolph-Macon may rest assured that she -has taken a long step in the right direction. - - -In the Sophomore and Freshman years, students use _text-books_, but in -the Senior and Junior years they use _subjects_,—_Haverfordian_. - -Were ‘should’ inserted in each place preceding ‘use,’ the above would be -true here. Text-books should blaze the way, as it were, for the student -in the acquisition of an education. Nothing is more difficult to instill -into the mind of a student than the principle that he is to study for an -education and not for a grade. He will not comprehend that, when school -days are over, the world is not going to look in the “grade-book” for -figures by which to size him up, but is going to estimate him by what is -in his head. The abolition of the marking system would be a great boon -to the cause of education. Then would students leave off worrying and -cramming their heads with the contents of dry text-books, the knowledge -of which remains only temporarily, and broaden out with a course of -reading, making the acquisition of knowledge not a burden but a -pleasure. - - -The _Wake Forest Student_ for January has a very interesting article on -“States Rights.” It begins by calling attention to the late decision -rendered by the Supreme Court in the case of Judge Bond’s injunction. -The writer states in reference to the decision that it has given to the -doctrine of State Rights, which received almost its death-blow in the -Civil War, “new strength and new limbs.” It will be remembered that -strength and life began to be infused in 1872 when the decision was -rendered in reference to the Louisiana Slaughter house cases; also by -the subsequent decisions “which pronounced null and void the ‘Kuklux -Act’ and the ‘Civil Rights Act,’ because the absurd theory on which they -were based would make Congress take the place of State Legislatures and -supersede them.” Taking into consideration that the late decision was -rendered by Justices appointed by Republican Presidents, the principle -of State Rights has indeed received a wonderful impetus. The author is a -very able champion of the sovereignty of States as the only sure plan of -retaining our individual rights. We feel sure that his words voice the -sentiment of every true lover of his State. - - -In the last number of the _College Message_ appears an article of merit -entitled “The Novel Again, A Protest.” The author is not lacking in -appreciation of novels of the first order, and, indeed, assigns to works -of fiction, by standard authors, the honor of performing a great and -good office; but justly criticises that slimy stream of inferior fiction -which is flooding the marts of literature, and disseminating vicious and -corrupting sentiments in the minds of the young. The article shows its -author well versed in the subject. It is acknowledged that cigarettes -and whiskey are the uncompromising enemy of boys. Inferior novels are -the inveterate enemies of both boys and girls. The former foes inflict -wounds, for the time being, upon the body, yet these being vanquished -the wounds will heal; but the latter attack the mind—the soul—and war -with poisoned weapons whose hurt is incurable. - - -Many of the ARCHIVE’S political exchanges are sharply censuring Speaker -Carlisle on account of his treatment of North Carolina representatives -in regard to the formation of the House Committees. True, all of them -occupy rather insignificant places. But, upon taking second thought, -fair-minded men will not accuse Mr. Carlisle of partiality, but will -rather ascribe the placing of North Carolina members to the short -duration of their membership. North Carolina has many able sons and -delights to honor them all. To do this, she distributes Congressional -honors too frequently, so that, when a representative’s reputation and -influence is just budding, he must step down and out to make place for a -new member. Thus the State suffers. In regard to this, North Carolina -may well take a lesson from the North and West. - - -The Raleigh _Chronicle_, one of the best weeklies in the State, and one -eagerly read by Trinity’s students, lends a helping-hand to the -Endowment Fund in the shape of a well written, broad-minded editorial. -As long as the editor wields his pen in behalf of education, may success -attend him. - - -The Greensboro _North State_, notwithstanding its politics, is one of -the most interesting, ably-edited papers that visit the ARCHIVE. - - * * * * * - -The editor of _The Tobacco Plant_ writes, as the fruit of his visit to -Trinity, an article on the College. In it he pays a graceful tribute to -his instructors in the days of yore, and closes with a stirring appeal -to North Carolina Methodists in behalf of Trinity. - - - - - Locals. - - - ═══════════════════════════════════════════════╤═══════════════════════ - D.

His lecture was interesting and beneficial -and enjoyed by all, especially by the young folks. Our President in -conclusion said we were like a little child, when we got a good thing, -we wanted more of it. - -A Chemistry class in Qualitative Analysis has been organized.

THE ARCHIVE desires to thank -them, and still has thanks ready for the remainder of the profession on -receipt of their papers. - -One of the Local Editors, while visiting at the Hundley House had one of -his over-shoes carried off, supposed to have been done by boy or dog. -Any person finding the same will please return it. It must have been -hard to hide that shoe. - -The Concert by the ladies and gentlemen of Greensboro was postponed on -account of inclement weather.

Burkhead was elected -Chief Manager by the Columbian, and E. L. Moffitt, Chief Marshal by the -Hesperian. - -We are glad to know that Mr. Callum, the groceryman of High Point, has -decided to deliver goods in Trinity free of charge. Good for Mr. Callum -and convenient for Trinity. Lookout for his ad. in next ARCHIVE. - - “To meet, to know, to love—and then to part - Is the sad tale of many a human heart,” - -sighed a chorus of students when our fair Pennsylvania visitors took -their leave last month. Knowing what joy you brought to our quiet little -village, can you refuse to come again in the near future? Here’s THE -ARCHIVE’S cordial invitation to our Commencement. - -The Hundley House boys say they are all glad to be together again under -“Father’s” hospitable roof. His dry and witty remarks are an unfailing -source of fun and merriment. He seems to enjoy hugely the German games -in Prof. Armstrong’s room. “Father” answers the call of “Herein!” as -promptly as the brassiest linguist in the house. Just persevere, -“Father,” and you will soon be able to astonish the natives with your -Dutch. - -$25,000 turned loose in Trinity every year by the students alone! -Merchants, ponder over that and remember that THE ARCHIVE furnishes an -excellent advertising medium. Let us, again, say to the students that it -is to their interests to patronize those firms which are represented in -our advertising columns. - - - RUMOR WHISPERS. - -—That red-birds and sparrows were thinned out mightily during the -holidays by those skillful quail (?) hunters. - -—That “Possum” is as sweet as ever on the girls, notwithstanding recent -events. - -—That Dick “_Betts_” a certain freshman got left recently. - -—That one of our pious theologians was perfectly carried away with the -“Scotch-ramble” at a Xmas party. - -—That “Ettiquette” was smitten anew during his sojourn at home.

The Bard of the class signed his examination paper in the -following strain: - - “Upon examination day - No aid received or given, - As on this English exercise - Two weary hours I’ve striven; - And now I sing a weary strain, - I neither laugh nor caper, - The only damage I have done - Is to deface this paper.” - - - - - Alumni. - - - ═══════════════════════════════════════════════╤═══════════════════════ - W.
