14 THE SENIOR ANNUAL i f , L 1 1. . Q . , I 1 The trigonofmetry class were trying Uo- finld the 'bealrinrg of a line by means of a transit, bu-t something seemed to- be wron, with t'he comlpass. The needle 'would frequently 'point in first one direction and then lin another in a 'most astonishing fashion. The class belgian, to think that the north' ip-olle was talking at walk for its hlealth, 'but aifter a greait amlo-unt of troublle they found that the needl-e persisted in .pointing toward Leathe Carman. Therelforle, tzhe trig class lean prove by Geometry that at least one mem- ber of '09 is alttractive. P Mr. Thompson asked one of our most brilliant -study.:-nts to describe I3 Buniseni Pl1OltO11liCtCI'. The aiforesaiiid srtudent bluslhed brill- iantly, seemed very embarrassed and stammerecl, VV hy, it is one of thorse thwinrgs you use in a dark room with very subdued candle l:i-gh.t.'f The class wa-nfted a more minute iles-eription, but the vic- tim refused to go into details. M-r. 'llhiomipison would like to 'know how to form the perfect participle of an iinltirainsitive verb when it is transitive, so that he will 'know iwihiait sto say the next -time he flies a kite. On the evening of May 7, about eight o'c+lock, Reuben Rlio-des nec-eived a ciall over the telephone, saying that the 'stove pipe hald fallen down, and that lhe should come home as soon aes- possible to help put iit up. R'e1u'b then ran home ini double quick time, to find the Class of '09 assemibled to remind him tlhalt it -was his nine- teenth birth-day. Games and refreshments caused the evening to pass very pleasantly, and the lcla-ss delparlted at a laute hofur, wish- inug him many more happy biirtllindays. At last the 'secret is out, fthrough a wonlderful discovery mafde by that great scientist, H. Alexander, 'all the world may now know wthat 'makes the Senior girls so .sweet and the Senior 'boys so slow. It all happened in Physics dlass, where M-r. Thompson was trying to 'Uhrow light upon the subject of light, for tthe 'benefit of saiiid Slenfiors. Our text book said that the 'earth was snrrorindecl 'by ether, la universal jelly. But no, our great Alexander, on dis- c-overy benft, would n-ot 'have it so.
