place i:i tl»e hearts of all connected with this school. For twenty-three years Dr. Bitner has faithfully and conscientiously unfolded to his pupils the great I aws of Nature as he interprets them from his diligent researches. An earnest, God-fearing man : we cannot express our admiration for him. Never shall he be forgotten by those with whom he has come in contact. We take this opportunity, as a Class, to bid him an affectionate farewell, and to wish him success in his future career. Members of the Kditing Board take this opportunity to acquaint the public with the fact that a full supply of guns and ammunition has been procured as a measure of self-protection in case of riot. We realize that our lives may be in jeopard} by publishing this book. Already a score of enraged Seniors and Middlers are after our scalps, and the Faculty is ready to execute us on the slightest provocation. Others less revengeful find consolation in considering the source.” Threats are much in evidence, but thus far no casualties in the Board have been reported. The prevailing opinion seems to be that members of the Kditing Board deserve lynching, and that hanging is too good for us. Though we are of a peace-loving disposition, this turbulent condition of society necessitates armed vigilance on our part if we wish to leave this institution alive.
