bers from five to fifteen. Though to the Class of N inety-two must be granted the honor of having instituted the custom of painting the Class colors and year upon the llbullseyell of the mVarsityll tower, yet all who appreciate artistic . art will concede that Ninety-three in her Freshman year surpassed all other classes in the 'art of painting. The class entered upon the duties and responsibilities of the Sophomore year with many forebodings of evil, and we soon found that they were not un- founded. Many were the lamentations heard over the intricacies of Physics and the excmtrz'cz'ty of Analytic Geometry. Many a class meeting was held to discuss the feasibility of burning the latter at the stake. Perhaps the only rea- son why Analytics escaped that awful fate lay in the fact that the treasury could not meet the strain necessary upon so solemn and important an occasion. Always to be remembered in the uannals of history, will be the memor- able night when the' ll F reshies ,, thought to. paint the tower. Suhice it to say that they had a traitor in camp; At an early hour every ll Soph l, was within the Uniyersity walls, guards were stationed, fortifications raised and instruc- tions issued.

Long will Ninety-three preserve them as trophies of war. It was the dearest dream of log in the Sophomore year to revive T HE RECENSIO, but difhcnlties beset her on all sides and prevented the accomplish- ment of her cherished hopes. Her numbers were small and the pocketbooks of her members were, alas,sti11 smaller, and little Iinancial support could be secured from her friends GO and. the A1umniof the University. The official chronicle does not show how many members of i93 attended the banquet given in honor of the class of l91 on the banks, of the beautiful and classic Talawanda, but rumor has it that a goodly representatiOn was pres- ent and partook I of the refreshments. The F irst Annual Banquet was also given during this year, subject, llThe Eleventh Member of the F aculty? Considered from all sides Ninety-threels Sophomore year seems to have been the most momentous of her college course. Ninety-threels Junior year was extremely uneventful and her historian finds no chronicles worth publishing to the world. We certainly feel highly honored by the banquet given us by the under classmen. The Decline and F all of the Roman Empire was a brilliant success and even though we found it necessary to help meet the expenses of a banquet 20
