History has carried them back to the days of the most ancient kings and has related to them all the causes and effects of man’s mysterious It has weaknesses of the ancient nations and pointed a dealings with man. showed. them the warning finger at them as being the cause of the decay of the nations. In Latin they have laboriously learned all the perplexing details which must be mastered in the beginning and have waged war with Ceesar among the Gauls. They have racked their brains in trying to solve examples, theorems, and a great many more tedious exercises in Algebra. The merry Middlers have learned the classic lore of the days when Greece was the favorite garden of the Gods and Jove ruled supreme. They have followed Irving in his course through the ‘‘Alhambra.’’ ‘The of Venice’’ has had its charms, while Jowell in his ‘‘Vision ‘ Merchant of Sir Launfal’’ has taught them that charity is Christlike. In History they the Media, Babylonia, Greece and Rome, which still resound have wandered among ancient halls of Syria, Egypt, Persia, with the footsteps of great men, warriors and sages of old. With Ceesar and Cicero they have participated in battles both on the field and in the Forum. Geometry has had its labors for them and joy- fully they announce to us that they can prove many perplexing problems. They live a charmed life during Chemistry period and whether they substitute chlorates for chlorides or.have explosions they always come off unharmed. The Seniors, although much abused by the tongues of the rest of the school, have in a quiet and unobstrusive manner read with delight the poems written by all the greatest poets, from Milton to ‘Tennyson, pondered over the truths of the ‘‘Vision of Sir Launfal,’’ laughed at the folly of Belinda in the ‘Rape of the Lock,’’ carefully followed the fortunes of the ‘‘Newcomes,’’ dis- cussed the speeches of: Burke and Macaulay, and translated with easé the old English of the ‘‘Pro- logue to the Canterbury Tales.”’ Civil Government has disclosed to them the fountains from which spring justice ard liberty and they have quaffed so heartily that we trust they pass out wiser and better citizens than they were three short years ago. In History they have learned of ‘the -terrible time of the Reformation, lived again in the days of the French Revolution and watched the rise of the modern nations. Again Cicero has spoken forth his great orations from the Forum and Virgil has sung of the deeds of ancient heroes. Chemistry has revealed to them its profound secrets and they have justly appreciated them. High School Party. { RIDAY evening, March 23d, the High df School was most charmingly entertained | by Miss Bovard at the Yosemite Hotel. Parlor games were played and the sound of mirth and laughter gave evidence that all were enjoying themselves. Miss Gertrude Edwards received a handsome silver mounted ink stand, as first prize in a pro- gressive game, and Miss Ida Bailey received a silver paper cutter as booby prize. At a late hour refreshments were served, and we soon after departed for home, pronouncing the evening a most delightful one and Miss Bovard a charming hostess. Of all the girls in the world none is more account of her numberless rings than the phone girl. envied by others’ on
