A, Motto: The Ladies, God Bless 'c-mf' OU would naturally suppose after lumping this unique specimen of pulchritude that he would be lddieted to the obnoxious dise'1se of fussing This assumption holds lim, for the first ye'1r of Bob s domicile in Annapolis, but it is now 'ipplrent that Cupid S H , ,, , . . . . . I . . 5 l I I l K K K k35'fJ4 i has seized his heart and transplanted it to one of Baltimore's sequestered suburb., namely Walbrook. Still Bob is the recipient of amorous epistles from romantic young ladies from all elimes, who have been roped in by his handsome physiognomy C?5. To see him strutting around with his spinal columnbent in the shape of an ellipse, re- minds one of a corkscrew endeavoring to penetrate a stopper. And to be an auditor when Bob sounds off Report at formations is sad indeed to those of us, who are unfortunate enough to be late. Bob was a member of the First Maryland's Machine Gun Com- pany when Mexico quit having bull fights and sent her toreadors across the border. Many are the tales of beautiful senoritas along the Rio Grande, capturing Villa, and the art of caring for Texas mules, which he propounds to anyone who cares to listen. He is undecided whether to enter the Army, get married, or buy the Western Maryland Railroad. Any one of them would suit him, but perhaps he will do them all. Bob and Bill Knighton are having a race as to who will be 1918's lirst benedict. At present we think Bill has ,him beaten, but one can't always tell. Anyway, here's luck and whichever walk of life he undertakes, may he succeed. 107

But take a word from us before you enter the field of battle. Stop eating canary bird tongues and dove hearts. Resort to the healthful, nutritive and muscle develop- ing menu of shark heads and cannibal stew if you wish to grow to manly proportions. Never will those fairy wingsl' of yours be able to produce slumber if you feed up on the former. Math seems to be Albert's chosen vocation 'and in this he pro- poses to labor after he tinishes a course at Hopkins Tech. VVhen he does, this math man tells us that he will be able to compute the area of a left angled triangle in terms of z-ip and establish a direct ratio between the sides of an eqnilateral perpendicular. NVe have enjoyed the few years this ambitious youth has spent in our midst and we have always found him useful and willing in every phase of college life. Nine healthy Rahs we sound at his departure with many successes on the end, to fill the zephyrs that blow him to his new abode in this big and troublesome world. WICKED world!

I 'J I I C HIS gallant knight, who makes his abode in some secluded hcrmitage down in W'or- cester, will some day startle the literary men of his enlightened village and make Q,x,g,Q,Q them .look up to him in envious wonderment. His oratorical and literary ability ifxfsffv has gained for him medals, trophies, black eyes, a broken nose, as well as undying glory among his classmates. Axel often takes us through his career when he was the athletic hero of Stockton High. To hear him tell of the days when he came in iirst in the roof when he batted the ball over the fence for the winning run, and made brilliant dashes in gridiron battles is really wonderful to relate. Shep is determined to have an audience. When his .orations fail him he resorts to a laborious but yet a renumerative practice. He opened up a barber shop on Junior floor. This seemed to gain him popular favor among his fellow students when he offered to do things which had to be done at reduced rates. Everything is most modern in this unsanitary tonsorial parlor, and a model for Annapolis barbers to go by. 1-lis first chair is of the rare Gothic architectural type, and, as the poet says, a thing of beauty is a joy forever. He uses hacksaw razors, curry combs, pblarine axle grease, Du Pont powder, in fact all the necessary and unnecessary tools and cosmetics that help to make the physiog- nomy beautiful. However, he has the nerve, grit and get there determination, and we hope as he climbs the lofty heights of success no obstacle will be too great for him to dispose of, and that the Gods of Fate will always smile upon him.
