Some zealous relic seeker will one day disinter us, 'wire us together, and we shall be labelled Exhibit A and spend the remainder of time in some co-operative museum-which phase of economic problem- solving will, no doubt, be then in vogue-even to the point of museums. Always, in unearthing the archeological tidfbits of the past, one thing has led to another, and surely some enterprising descendant will be rewarded, for his endless digging by the finding of a rich field on the sight of what history willf reveal as a once famous and up-to-date institution of learning. For once, in ages long past and dimly recalled, a tfibe of ,students inhab- itedthis earth to the improvement of the race and to the consternation of a contemporary species known as faculty. On this particular site of learning heretofore mentioned, there grew up and prospered ua certain 'small and se- lectgroup of bright and shining lights known throughout the gamut of his- tory as the Class of 1920. Not being content to pass their glory by word of mouth, nor leave it to the uncertain knowledge of some future chronicler, they carved their deeds on memory tablets Can indestructible medium for the perpetuation of past experiencesj.

i------- It will be these tablets which shall be the reward of EXH'B'T A the seeker and they will undoubtedly be ranged on f--'-'-' . either side of our bleached and bony likenesses and l EIEEGLELAL marked Exhibit B.

' K CHIEVCHENT ' The first one will be difficult to large number of figures and the general effect of con- fusion. Each figured girl carries a hand-bag and there seems to be a faint greenish cast to the whole picture. The writing below is translated as Arrival-Assign- ment of Junior Counsellors. The next tablet is divided into three sections and in each there is paramount the suggestion of menial work. The first shows a bed in the process of makingg -thesecond shows a figure carrying many pairs 'of shoes 'and a handful of silver spoons, while the third represents what seems to be a gigantic struggle over one brawny member by several lesser fri decipher due to the , K F, at Al .0 I i A 5.-x ,gn--1 creatures. They are trying vainly to propel her toward an overflowing tub of water. The third tablet on this series shows many figures mounted upon a rocky prominence. Their mouths are open and they are apparently singing. Below, the let- ters spell, Where, oh, where are the sleeping Sopho- mores? i g The next two pictures indicate great ezrhuberance. The first shows some queer, fantastic figures, half hu- man and half resembling a jungle beast, being driven in vo p
