Editorial. There seems to be much interest displayed. The class Nines have about fallen through, though they are spoken of once in a while. ’80 seems to have the strongest Nine this year, although others boast of being the best. Boating has been started by some of the boys, and it is to be hoped the interest may increase. Some talking has been done in regard to instituting field-day. It would be a good thing if we did have such a day here, as much hidden power would be brought to light. May those making an effort in this direction accomplish their object. It is true we have not much musical talent, but what we have tells. The “Haydn Orchestra” has been kept up with great success. We often hear the pleasant sounds of their instruments as we sit at our window. Kenyon has been making vast strides forward within the last year, by raising her standard. We feel confident that this will be good for the College and our heartfelt wishes are that she may succeed. It is something new to give the publishing of The Reveille to under classmen and we hope such a thing will never happen again. We have endeavored with all our power to make this publication attractive, and have added the new feature of having each class speak for itself. Hoping our first effort will meet with kind approval, we now ask our reader to step on to the next object.

Editorial. way through their course; not only have they kept up old ones, but they have also instituted new ones. They have made an adiwice and still they keep on. They have a chance to s] eak for themselves and we will leave something for them to say. It is with great regret that “we will have to say the parting word” so soon. ’78 was before us, but now 79 steps up. We have looked on that picture (78), now let us look on this (79). '79 are now Juniors. How that class has been battered by college vicissitudes! In the world, that mighty choir in which we arc the instruments, unless “a change conies o’er their being,” they will perform the parts that need the most wind. What has that class done for itself, or any one else? They seem to be intent uj on themselves, having no regard for others. They have dropj ed all class customs and try to keep back from all new ways and means, study their history as written by them- selves and learn what they are. The Sophomores now must be attended to. As we were loath to speak of '79, we now turn w ith pleasure to ’80. It, like'78, has done all in its power to uphold class customs and class spirit. It would seem that the old saying, “there’s luck in odd numbers,” was wrong: as ’76, 78, and 80 have all done well; while ’77 and ’79 have done—nothing. The giving the publi- cation of The Reveille into ?8o’s hands, show’s how she w’as appreciated. May she in turn prove herself worthy of the honor. Who are these that stand before us? but one glance is neces- sary to tell. And yet, it is hard to give them a place. They were dished up in such various styles, that it is hard to give them the name of Freshman. Like all Freshmen, they know' more now’, in a w’ay, than they will in a year or two. As a class, they have already shown that there is something in them, having stood together well. Rut they are beginning early in their course to lose men; we hope they will hold those they now have. Our advice to them is, “do your best and leave the rest. ” . I Let us take a glance at some of the sports now going on. This year “the Nine,” for that is the first matter of importance, has practiced faithfully both at the gymnasium and on the field. 9
