Mr. Cook certainly fooled the boys when he allowed the General class to remain in the auditorium about fifteen minutes one clay, and then came in and pulled down the board with the test questions thereon. 109

A Reminder The publication of this book has been made possible by our advertisers. Only the best firms in their respective lines have been solicited for business, and it would be impossible to find a better list of firms with which to deal. We have pledged ourselves to make this advertising pay. Keep this in mind during the coming year and do not fail to mention the Year Book when send- ing inquiries and orders. The students of the Class of 1915 will place enough orders with these firms to repay them well for their investment. The important point is to let them know it, and they will not only feel satisfied with the results this year, but will be ready to renew their contracts for the 1916 Year Book. 110
