Since his arrival last fall, Frederick has introduced many new customs and mannerisms in the school, notable among which is his enviable ability to eat pancakes and his knowledge of mines, the former quality being distinctly Coloradean. Frederick also has the wonderful record of not having failed on a problem in Physics since the days of his childhood. In mathematics he is equally efficient, and we are sure that some of his deductions would put to shame even the great Archi- medes, were that famous gentleman alive today. This mechanical genius of his has led him to be appointed electrician iii the Dramatic Club, and his powers of elocution won for him an honored seat in the Forum. As for college, Frederick has not yet decided definitelyy but his best bet is Cornell. Best success to you there!

KlCzlptain Dodd, who did you say he was? the fair dam- sel innuired. llVV'hy, hels that tall handsome fellow with the tin sword, standing out in front of Company Af was the reply. As far as build goes, Hansome is a close resem- blance to a string bean. The true blue patriotism of our fellow Classman is manifested in his eagerness to obtain knowledge of military tactics. Many of us do not realize how beautiful the ride from Montelair to Glenridge, on the P. S. Taxi, is on a cold winteris evening. HHansome claims that as you sit on the seats which are like downy couches, the sweet songs of birds are heard in the distance and the fragrant perfume of Spring Howers is wafted to your nostrils. t;We are inclined to believe that the perfume is more likely to be coal gasfl He is an enthusiastic member of the Forum and for two years has been a high man on the RiHe Team. His activities in athletics are rather limited although he cheerfully submits to being knocked about on the scrub football team. He plays on the mandolin club and has been accused by Youngman of trying to show his musical superiority by playing correctly when practicing a new piece. We Wish you the best of luck at R. P. 1., hiCaptnfl and are sure that you will never let anything short of success reward your efforts there, as well as in after life.

HMy nimfs as true as steel. vShaIcespeure. Montclair Academy, 44318; Honorable Mention, French, Ye Yeare Booke Board, 17318; RiHe Club, 18; All A Club, 17318; President of Forum, Second Term, 17318. Garrabrant tCabaret for shortl, the gent with the blue eyes and golden hair-no, gentle reader, not blue hair and golden eyesr-stands as an example of what Bloomfield can really produce, if it feels like it. uGarry decided several years ago that the Academy was a good place in which to have his talents improved, so he came here; and since then has been a shilling star in all his undertakings. His smile, which many say is Irish, and we wont argue about it, is the outstanding feature of this boy with the three-decker brain. He is rather unassuming about his Virtues, never- theless he is one of the original members of the All A Club. The Forum has a prominent member in him-in fact, his favorite line of argument is that the Forum is a little better than the Rostrum. Maybe this is the reason they elected him president of the Forum. May he achieve as great success at Rutgers as he has earned here.
