Recovering from the dreaded disease known as education, and being ready to leave this educational atmosphere behind us, we realize the important task left to be accomplished by our worthy classmates, and we hardly think it more than fair that all our earthly wealth, which is ours by rights of gain and more or less lawful possession, be properly distributed.
