The novelty of Following the Trail in the form of an automobile party made the evening ery interesting. Licenses, new tires, tire menders and gas were in evidence everywhere in more or less camouthiged form. Several times even in true auto fashion the lights went out. We wondered wliy, of course, hut one versed in the customary |)ranks played by the Columbians and Lowells on each other, would soon have guessed. Kefreshmenls were served from a hilariously-colored service station. ' I ' he guests de- ])artcd with the expressed idi ' a thai the trail of the Lowells is a true guide to loyalty t i C. of L THE ( OI.r.MIU.W I{EC ' ErTl() The Annual Columbian Ueccption, a mixer given in honor of the new students, was held at .Sterry Hall, October 1-. The huge auditorium, decorate ] with flowers and foliage, was filled with students, faculty and alunnii. The jirogram, furnished liv talented Columbian artists, was varied and miic|ue, including magicians, bandits and movie stars. The athletic contest, with Dr. .Salomon winning in the bawl gauie, and Professor ' an Nuys in the broad jump, gave new stu lci ts liopi ' ful views of the formid.dih ' f.icullx. A bufl ' et supper was served at 10:30. .Many guests apjjreciativc of the talent and fellowship evinced were won to the Red and White banner, and pledged Columbian before College Loyalty ended the evening ' s festivities.

They were to be a very honored hotel, for peo])le were coming from far and wide to view the vast spectacle. It was rumored th.it Purgatory and Finney were to break the bonds which held to continemeni, and come forth for the moment and see the mystic dwelling of I.oki. What a curious combination of devils :ind fairies that would be! But what could be kei]iing them? Tt is now past seven thirty and not a oju ' has .ir- rived.

)nr h li ml ff il .vf (■ ii haughty shriek resininded through tlie iiiglit. (mjckIiu-ss, one of the visitors nuist have fallen cff tlie grade ! Mrs. I.olii ruslied out tlie little door and onto the spiral stairway that led U)i over the precipitous steep. The road department has started work again, for here and there were detour signs. Mrs. Loki had not expected that. . s she was looking, .she saw someone stumhle; a sharp crack of an arc was heard; a blinding light followed and an agonizing groan Tuet the ears of Mrs. Loki. She rushed to the aid, but she was too late, for Puck had already torn his fostuiiie and scorched his hands on the wet towel. Out of the millions that set out, only a little over a hundred managed to reach the enchanted s|)ot, after having encountered stumbling blocks, biting devils, and the grave itself. The spell and strain were broken however, wlien the guests had the privilege of viewing the Uienagerie, which was a looking glass. Even with the age which Mrs. I.oki jiossessed, .she was able to detect neither Cecil Pol- lard, nor Samuel Hungerford. There also were other curious and beautiful specimens present. Frivolous games filled the early evening. These ended, the guests uncovered their stifled heads for air. It was then that the pleasant surprise came, for they discovered with whom they were walking and playing. At the enchanted hour of eleven, with their a] petites and spirits gratified, the honorable guests wended their ways back to confinement, completely satisfied with the evening ' s events. FOOTBALL BANQUET The farewell ceremonies for the 1322 football team took place at Finney Hall, Wednes- day, December 13, at 6:15 p. m. The com]niny, before descending the stairs to the banquet hall, was called into the parlors where Dr. Boone, with characteristic simiilicity, awarded th(? letters to this year ' s letter men. In the dining hall below were two long tables suitably attired, which were arranged to seat about thirty couples. Physical needs were partially satisfied first, and then Dr. Boone, as toastmaster, opened the second part of the program, which consisted of more or less ex- temporaneous responses from about fifteen banqueters. Coach Anse Cornell briefly brought out the need of new material to fill the places of those who bad played for their last time on Cleaver Field. He urged the graduating men to keep playing the game during the coming years, by inflencing new men to come to C. of I. Jesse Brandt, line coach, in his sincere way, told of the absolute necessity of keeping football clean, sportsman-like, and uncommercialized. Toasts given by various students were received with hearty laughs and applause. Before the banquet was over, the letter men withdrew to a place of secrecy and selected Dal Hudspeth as next year ' s captain. For two years Dal has been a steady scrapper on the line, and we know that during the 1923 season he will lead C. of I. team- sters through a clean, hard-fought and successful season. THE A ' OORHEES C ' HRIST: L S PARTY With high spirits the assemblage gathered at Voorhees Hall the night the men of Voorhees gave their Christmas party. Christmas cheer predominated. The big tree, decor- ated to its capacity, stood beside the fireplace; the yule log cracked and blazed, sending out its rays of light to the darkened corners. It was around this fireplace that the young men and their guests collected as they came in. The chairman of the evening ' s gaities then led the crowd through an evening of fun and rich alisurdity, such as had never been known in these parts before. At the close, old Saint Nicholas himself appeared with a gift for each guest. After a cafeteria supper the Voorheesians sung Christmas Carols which were answered by feminine cheers for Voor-
