BRAUN. Philosophy is a dangerous food, for it will either be digested or cause dyspepsia. Judging from this care-worn face, the latter has apparently taken place. It will hardly be denied that Braun possesses the widest literary knowl- edge amongst his classmates. Extensive reading and assiduity in his studies are his characteristics. Occasionally he voices a profound conglomeration of philosophical gusts, thus relieving himself of superfluous ballast, and nearly smothering his by-standers. The 'Profs' donit give us half enough work.'7 A. BRISKY. Here we behold the portrait of a young man who is so volitiously ambi- tious that his energy is often consumed by merely planning to undertake a task! Adding to this friendly face a pair of musical hands, two lower extremities of great dexterity, and a graceful body, corresponding to the remainder of the figure, and illumining the product of our imagination with an ever-glowing smile, might give us a hazy idea of Brick. He did not invent the German language, Dativ and Accusativ are fac- similes in his eyes, existing merely for an occasional change from the monotous Nominativel HShake on it, guys! E. BRUNN. This is our virtuoso Brunn. He is Lisztis successful rival. One can see him daily going towards the music building with a suitcase. His destination is piano room 8, and his suitcase contains his music, a harmony pad, and a metronome. But there is a reason. His entire life is a musical one. He was born in A Flat, believes it is good to B Sharp, and is still A Minor. Erwin is a full-fledged member of the Anti-Smoking Club. A good whiff of Tuxedo will set his brains into a complete state of utohuwabohuf' For he once read in the history of music that Liszt neither smoked nor chewed, so why should IT' Erwin is the shining star of class '20. System is his motto. We venture to predict that he will not die of inactivity. When his eyes grow dim, and his fingers stiff, the literary market will still be open for the publication of his book upon wfhe Prolific Propagation of the Extinct Amphibians? uCome on, guys, cut it outlv Elcvfn H0 -he :ac ls: ..
