away, and here and there bright silver-like specks began to appear. And further, on account of these things, the heap was assuming a spherical shape. T his change consumed most of the first year. At the beginning of the second year another great alteration occurred. The spheroid, although it remained stationary, on account of an inside force began to revolve, slowly indeed at first. It is true already at this time this object also began to grow smaller, as often, some particle not being able to adapt itself to such an environment would drop from the sphere and roll off the Hill. But the surface quickly grew light and polished. As the revolution increased, it became evident that this sphere was not a useless thing. The light from its polished surface reflected many accomplishments. Its power has brought success in scholarship, athletics, dramatics, social festivities, wholesome fellowship and all other activities that surrounded the great center. Thus for two years this sphere, once a dirt colored mass, now a highly polished globe, remained near the Pole of attraction, shedding its light of good influence and at the same time taking on a higher polish on account of the friction with other bodies. During this long period the sphere gradually grew smaller and the revolution became greatly accelerated. The fourth year the sphere, on account of its high rate of turning, and also because of a larger sphere crowding from below, slowly begins to move away from the Power that attracted its particles. This Power has been absorbed and will always be retained as an ingredient. The history of the sphere from this point is told purely from a vision seen in its surface. It is known to all that this body cannot remain a unit without some external power of attraction, so its breaking down is expected. Accord- ing to all natural law, if the sphere continues moving in its present path, it cannot fail to strike a disintegrating agent on June twenty-second. It is now expected that it will separate into seventeen parts, although there is just now some doubt as to this conjecture. The divided parti- cles will then roll away into the future. Their location will be far apart, even separated by oceans, but wherever placed, each within itself will possess those wholesome characteristics which go to make up a true Kenyon man. L. F. E.
