His first feat of note performed after coming to sip at this fount of learning was to dodge seventeen ha.gs of water thrown at him at the same time. Since that time his chief characteristic has been dodging out of sight of the inquisitive multitude, and poring over a treatise on The Preservation of M - Curls in the de ' pths of his room. The Phoenix Literary Society drew him from this seclus ' on and placed the laurel wreath upon his brow more than once, but the climax of his College cireer was reached one night when he wafted sweet scng to the sheltering moon, and alli.wcd his fancv to soar aloft to where the stars of the morning sang together.

Danieron left the College to suffer her fate while he went to edify the youth of the land last year, but at the beginning of this session he returnefl, gracefulK- accejiting the presidency of the Senior Class and ihc editorship of the Literary Mir urjiiw. However, after mature consideration, he decided to give up the magazine so he could devote more time to practice in the art of bluffing, at which his rci)utation is of the liest. Prof. Dameron takes enough part in the various College activities to show that he is pnhtel - interested, and then retires in order to snioothe the wrinkle from his alaljaster l)row and to remove the whiskers from his angular and massive jaw Iiefore he goes over to address t!ie Dues on the question of ' oting According to Convictions. ( I ' .ut whose convictions are they?) [ 20 ]
