In the class-room our intellectual life is well upheld by such sharks as George Hornblower, Isaac Bloch and Vondermuhll, all of whose brains work wonders and cause an atmosphere which alas! is too scholarly for many of us, and we plainly see that a lower section is our only salvation. In the music-hall what have we to fear when we behold upon the platform john Dudley, the wonderful cornetist, who by his tender notes causes many a heart to ache until his lips fail him, and a mighty bl-r-r-r expresses the feelings of the musician's soul. The losses we suffered this year when Bill Moorehead and Mother Pardee left us are irreparable, but their presence among us will always be remembered and cherished with affection. In February a Trojan youth with the build of a Hercules and the head of an ancient philosopher joined our band. But, you say, who is this human marvel? His name is George Lane, the well-known lady-killer, who by his wit and humor has pierced more than one heart with his dart of love. But come, let us drain our cups in a hearty toast to IQOO, and may her future be a bright and prosperous one. HISTORIAN. Q2

'00 History. p t 0 HE class of 'oo stands upon the threshold of her senior year, and before her in the doorway there arise the responsiblities which are hers to meet. But in the depths of 4 ,AQ her heart there is a feeling of strong confidence that she will be able to handle these 5 duties successfully, and leave behind her a record of deeds well done. The first two years of her birth and childhood have been years of experience, and A - out of the joys and sorrows of the past she has formed a foundation that will not give way under heavier trials and hardships. At the beginning of the year, when the long line of freshmen 'began to pour in, we were eager to see what fortune would grant us and we did not suffer great dissappointment, for there appeared at our recitations youths of all sorts, from the olive-skinned Italian Dieffenderfer, to the wise and ancient- looking Walbridge, a seer whose wit is only exceeded by the pleasant smile which accompanies it. Some even say he is the goddess-born,', but alas I there are features that would cause us to discredit this story. Indeed, our ranks are abounding with men of celestial minds. For instance, there is Lewis Hornblower, the aspiring poet, who may be seen at any time with a wild gaze in his eyes and his hand tearing, in vain, his auburn hair is search of a poetical inspiration. On the athletic field we are by no means at a loss with such men as Dane Kafer, Hut Preston, Hen Law, Runt Humbird, Fat DeVVitt and Nat Huggins, the enormous sixteen-year-old freshman. And there is no doubt but that with such men as these our class will be a victorious one in time to come. 'QI
