But beware, Cubby is not to be trilled with: his nick-name fully characterizes him. It may be said, morc- over, that Cuhby shares his namesake-'s adversion to winter and that he, for the most part, adopts the very same method of a- voiding it, namely by sleeping. Ile comes as near to hibernating as anyone we have in the class. The only thing that does not seem con- sistent with his name is his well-known and acknowledged occupation of draught-hunting. In any event, Teddy, we know better than to show any anxiety about your career at Pr:NN VVIIARTON ll llllllltllllt'1lfl1llll1llt11i'ml I!'.11 451ltIt'YI1175111119151llltltllhlll Eugene Mrttlamlg l'vlknap Syracuse, N.

Ile is famous for being a social genius, for his feet, for his lack of knowledge of military tactics: for his leadership of the Y. M. C. A., for his desire to become a noncom, lor his intelligent whistle frecall the Y. M. receptionj, for his listic encounters, for his diary, for making calls, for rough-housing, for his drag, for his liberal translations of Latin, for his dread of study hall and guard squad, for his sus- ceptibility to feminine charms, for his literary attainments, for his perseverance in trying entrance exams, for his Y. M. C. A. con- ference at Lebanon, which he tried to turn into a Y. W. C. A. conference. There, we haven't space to describe any ol' these traits and escapades, but from this list you know what kind of a boy our Cam is.

My tongue within my lips I reign Both in Interior and exterior this fellow is all right. Ile is the second of his race to secure the Mercersburg diploma, and, like his predecessor, he is a good public speaker and is headed for Princeton. In his short time with us Ilopi has made his mark as a student and as a debater. But he believes in quantity as well as quality, as evidenced both by the length of his schedule of studies and by the length of his letters received from the neighboring town of Carlisle. They that if the postage war tax were pro- portioned by weight, Paul would be broke most of the time. We have found your chief characteristics, Ilopi, to be cheerfulness and a spirit of hard work. We know you will be as successful and make as many friends elsewhere as here. PRINCETON mallarr llvnnarh Alrxanhrr Philadelphia, Pa.

In our little Alexander the Great we have the original mischief-maker, resuscitated and brought up-to-date. The little air-gun tot red-shoe famej, the alarm clocks, the bee hive, bed-a-planing are a few, a very few, of the escapades he figured conspicuously in. When there is any trouble in Laucks, it is about as hard to tind the culprit as it is to discover food at a meal. Alex is versatile, however. If studies were his only ambition, he would probably lead his class, and as for athletics we only need point to Alex's successful year as cap- tain and drawback of the latest Spider Team.

HTIIH n1orlesIy's 11 candle lo lhy merif' Here, gentlemen, is a most quiet man with an exquisite Ilow of language. We claim Brownie to be a brand from the burning. VN'hen we first knew him, he was deeplv involved with the ultimate triumph of the ethereal mind over commonplace matters. lle has a very decided opinion on everv- thing, and will argue bv the hour on anything from woman sutlrage to the virtues of the hook-worm. Brown wears a pair of glasses that are a real camouflage. By those who have seen him without them, he is said to be in a state of perpetual blush and embarrassment. Yet he is constant in all things and a true friend to all who know him.

Nothing is more useful than silence Brom is a member of the Silent Workers of Schwenksville. Where? Why you know. Sehwenksville, the place which claims as suburbs, Boston, Philadelphia and New York! For details consult Mayor Bromer. Brom is proncient at wrestling and, ac- cording to the Schwenksville CI!lI'i0I1, he spends much of his vacations hunting and trapping. At school, his great athletic fame is in the field of tennis. Brom is indoor tennis champion of the third floor, Main: some honor, considering the protieiency acquired by the Main Hall athletes! Besides being a member of the Silent Workers, liddie is also a member of the Sons of Rest, in good standing too. Ile manages to get things done, however, and we predict success for him.
