And there were many merry- makings in his reign. 5. Among the festivities of the year was a drama by the name of Safety First. 6. A great multitude assembled to see the drama, which they highly praised. 7. After many days had expired a great feast was made unto the Seniors, and a tribe called, Faculty, at the palace of King Fred. 8. And the hangings were many colors. 9. There was food and wine in abundance. 10. And there was much mirth and feasting and laughter which continued far into the night. 11. Therefore, the feast being ended, they departed with great re- joicing. 12. And it came to pass, that the following day was spent in sports. 13. One man was injured and borne from the field. However, the Juniors were victorious. 14. And the Freshmen and Jun- iors set their 'banners upon the housetop. 15. Behold when the Sophomores saw it, they were wrought, and they feared to take it down. 16. In the sixth month these tribes met with neighboring tribes 18 to test the strength of their people, and were victorious again. FALL, 1921. 1. And the reign of King Fred continued over the people. 2. During his reign, the Seniors made truce with Ross, king of the Sophomores, and aided him inhis battles against the Freshmen and Juniors. 3. And now the king consulted with the leaders and all their people and said, If it seems good unto you, let us put foith a 'Mirror' and send it abroad to our brethren. 4. And all the tribe said they would do so, for the Mirror seem- ed good in the eyes of the people of the neighboring tribes. 5. The people of the tribe saw fit to present yet another drama in accordance with the custom. 6. Great preparations were made and the drama was presented which was received with great praise, and was repeatedagain and again. 7. On the twelfth day of the sec- ond month another fete was pre- pared. 8. They assembled all their peo- ple and invited all the neighboring tribes to be present. 9.

And when they had done this and securely hidden what they did not eat, they caused a great uproar, and drew the Freshmen out of the house into the courtyard, where they completely surrounded them. 12. And when they had sur- rounded them completely, they ad- ministered unto them iodine on the ears, and shoe polish to their nose, until they had exhausted themselves of their hate, and the Freshmen losed themselves and made their way homeward. 13. And it came to pass that the terrible plague descended upon these people, known as the flu. 14. Many of the tribe beiri af- flicted, they left their duties for forty days and forty nights. 15. And the rest of the year was spent in peace and prosperity. FALL, 1919. 1. And here Leland would rule no longer, and the people seeing this went to Fred, and said unto him, Behold, we have no ruler. Now we are the same tribe, and thou has always been faithful to us. More- over, in times past, even when Le- land was king, thou didst often lead forth our armies to battle. There- fore, we would have thee rule over us. 2. And Fred ruled long and faithfully in the land. 3... And the name of the tribe was now changed. And it was now H called Sophomores. And those who had been Sophomores, were now Juniors. 4. And behold the tribes had new enemies, and these were Freshmen. 5. So they waged a war against them, and many were slain on both sides. But the Sophomores were victorious, for they were the better warriors. 6. During the reign of Fred, it happened that the tribe was having a merry-making, as was their want. And there was much mirth and feasting and laughter. And when they were off their guard the war- riors came upon them and surprised them. 7. And confusion was rife in the camp, and there was fear least the warriors might overcome them. 8. However the leader soon quiet- ed the multitude, and once more peace reigned. 9. Again the tribes met in dread- ful conflict, near the close of the sec- ond year of our rule. 10. And the Seniors and Sopho- mores ascended to the third floor and succeeded in setting up their ban- ners on the house-top. 11. In vain the Juniors and Freshmen sought to remove the ban- ners. 12.
