a wonderful chemical combination of those'elements that go to make up a base ball fiend and spring poet of the hrst water. He'hails from a small village generally considered a suburb of the classic city of Oxford. His literary ability has been acknowledged by all the great literary men of the age. The highest hopes Of this class centre in our poet in the expectation that he Will bring it world Wide fame, for it can not be denied that if nothing happens he may be- come illustrious and world renowned. Do not let the reader be deceived by the supposition that only the truly great men of this class have been chosen as its ofhcers, and that therefore their characters only have been delineated. For it is an assured fact that all the men of the class have as great minds as the oiiicers, and these oflicers have only served as models to show the reading public the standing and futurepros- pects of the most wonderful class that has ever reached the dignity of Juniors. . 0090 0009000 ' 25

nowned editorials of his illustrious sheet. As to his person, short rather than tall, stout rather than thin, we sometimes iind him Wearing a beard, more frequenty appearing in a mustache the envy of all beholders, among whom may be casually mentioned the fair sex. W'e shall next take as our theme the illustrious llSammyil-the long-haired one-our honored Cl Vice president whose achievements are too numerous and notorious to mention. What labors he has not consummated would fill up the greater part, if not all of our available space. We understand that he now has a budding beard under cultivation. Long may it continue to be an honor to the class. The Honorable Mr. Herman next appears on the tapis. He very ably fills the oiiice of scribbler to the Class of ' 94. Our honorable secretary is truly a wonderful piece of mechanism. It has been said he has been taken for a rofessional advertising agent, so successful has he been in persuading Ham- ilton merchants of the necessity of giving their ads. to T HE RECENSIO. His vocalistic powers are excellent and his earnestness is terrific. It came to pass in the ninth month that Asher, brother to Gad-Benjamin- Issachar, et icelera, aa' z'njim'tumjand so on, conceived a plan in his mind whereby he might become mighty among the sons of Miami and as he thought, he was g'ad in his heart and waxed joyful. And he went forth and said to Charles of the tribe of Greer: ll Hearken now unto my voice. We will form a ring; we will iponey our brothers in the Class of ,94; we Will stuff the ballot box; we will obtain high offices and verily, our name shall be great in the land? But 10! On that day when the class assembled together the ring broke so that it did not work, whereat he waxed exceeding w'roth and said: ll Suffering old man ! Verily, this class is not worth a hill of beans? And he mourned and wore saCk-cloth and ashes seven days and seven nights, and as Charles of the tribe of Greer loved him much, he went out and mourned with him. And now ladies and gentlemen, with your kind attention we will present for your contemplation the blissful smile which emanates from the classic features of llRory, the illustrious historian of the Class of i94. His face twhen that expansive smile is absent so one can see it fairlyl beams with intelli- gence and good will for mankind in general and womankind in particular. His attainments in all the modern branches of doing nothing are too well known to be more than casually mentioned. To see him on one of his peram- bulations, with his get-there expression and a Junior cane, one is almost tempted to thinkihim a Retreat crank. on a vacation. But when we stop to think of the noble thoughts and massive wheels that are cavorting around in his magnificent head our souls are filled with amazement, not to say awe. i Boger has been left to the last among the oflicers of this truly wonderful class, as it is always conceded that the best is left for the end.
