Thou must needs retire at thirty minutes past ten of the clock, for then do thy lights go out. But thou mayst burn the midnight candle, for to study and gain knowledge from thy scrolls. Howsoever, thou shalt not prevent thy sister in the next abode from being wafted to sleep by the gentle zephyrs. And above all else, conduct thyself ever in the manner befitting the dignity of a Wallace Hall maiden. And according as the maidens of Wvallace Hall obeyed these rules, they did live, and love, and have their laughter. L. E. D., '12, 1 UTA OTA CLUB. William Horne, President. Fred Carson, Secretary. Oscar Ellison, Vice President. Charlotte Burlington, Assistant. Fred Shimian, Steward. Mrs. L. J. Scott, Matron. Should a Sioux brave invade the Mac campus these days, it is a fore- gone conclusion that his first point of interest would be the Uta Ota Club, Heap big feed, ugh, ugh! Uta Ota has sprung up to meet the growing demands of M ster's increased attendance. The Club quarters are situated at the corner of Grand and Cambridge, and are handsomely furnished. Its parlor is equipped with a piano, with the aid of which soloists and a quartette drive away Dull Care -and its members-occasionally. Oyster suppers fare you guilty?l paddles, theological and sporting discussions, visitors, jokes and good fellowship have made this club one of the jolliest spots on the campus. Prunes and tariff are strictly tabooed. F. F. C., '11. 106

EUTROPHIAN CLUB. No, ma'am, that green structure over there on Summit avenue is neither pandemonium nor a boiler factory. It is Eutrophian Hall, the home of the Eutrophian Hall Club, and that awe-inspiring sound reminding one of a cross between a Sioux war dance and a Chinese New Year's celebra- tion is simply the external evidence that the Sum-funny orchestra is at its evening rehearsal. Oh, no, that other noise between pauses in the music is not the sound of hands clapping in applause. To him who knows, it means that some luckless Freshman is paying the penalty for tardiness in answer- ing the telephone. Under its first year of self-government, Eutrophian has prospered be- yond all expectation. Without greater expense than that of former years, the inmates have lived in increased comfort. The woodwork has been re- finished, rooms papered, and walls cleaned after every snow fall. The members take a deep interest in politics, and one of the most profitable features of life at the club has been a series of addresses on city politics by aspiring candidates. As a result the members have been abund- antly supplied with campaign material ranging from El Cabbageo Leafos to Tom Moores. The Eutrophian Boarding Club, an organization entirely distinct from the Hall Club, still continues under the same management. Big Chief Johnson continues as of yore to collect the board bills and purchase super- annuated mule in wholesale quantities. Charles Taylor Burnley has suc- cessfully filled the position of chief joker, with Oakley Tripp as understudy and probable successor. Another official worthy of mention is Tilly the nursemaid, who has managed the Freshmen table with consummate ability. f- rs 1' X f +EQ '15 1-, Q ' x 'ffl J xxx Q ,.. iii ff? q i K1- g, 4 X '- 1 -gi S' ' 2 il A as 'MW ' 5. y um .
