THE SENIOR ANNUAL 19 Miles. Well I tlhink you ought to wait a couple years yet. IJawren'c'e. Isnlt he cild enoughf? Mliles. I think 'h-e lacks a'bout two years. Glen Iyogan. He can be ,president anyway. Why, why noltg He won t 'be any lwiser in 'two years that he is now, and no one can tell by looking at h.i'm how olid he cis. Arthur. No, I will cagrry o-ut my honest piriniciples now as ever before. Friends, thlis is a grealt 'shock to me, I can't realize the fact. Oh--CFain1ts.j ' A , JUNIOR JEALOU SY UNCONTROLLABLE. A few wefeks algo, in 3lCCUI'll2l11'CC with the custom, the boys of the Senior class pu'rc'h-ased class caps, made olf royal purple, with cream lett-ers worked on' them. In 'the juldigmenit of the Seniors they were most 'bealuti'ful, lbuit the admiration of the juniors 'knew no bounds, and Hn'al'ly, as extreme covetousness often does, it chang- ed from simple adm.ira'tiion to a jeiallousy which 'was far past that niohle power of control. As .a result of the fit of passion, the Juniors, l1I13!lDllC'tO oonitrol tlhemselves any longer resorted to' a means which although extremely CllSl1OlI1'C'1'3.llJ'l6, was nevertheless eifecftive. They actually took 'these -caps. This little act could easily have been. for- given had they been children of 5 or 6 years of age, but to think of luniors doing suclh a 'contenmpwtible trick is almost out of thle ques- tion. In ondeir thart the public may not form an entirely wrong opin- ion of our l'l1Nl'6T'Cl'ElSS'l'Il'El1 wie wish 'to say 'that the 'Senior cllass does not think that they realized what they were doing. Yolu see, with 'the excepition of a couple they are compariti-vely young and older peopl-e can often 'exert a strong influence upon youth and bend them to ltheir will. No effort 'wars maide to recover the calps sin'ce ivt 'wias mru'ch eas- ier to order new ones. and in a short time the Seniors were again t'he proud iposs-essors oif new caps. which they vallued more because they knew how much' they W-ere adored and enivied 'by the juniors. However, the Sienlioirs felt lit to be their parental duty 'to pun- ish, to a slight extent, these unrully children. 'Cons-e'quently o-ne of tlhe older and wiser meimfbers of the junior class was deprived oif the pleasure of Wearing her exquisite Easter 'bonn'et, hecause of her lalck of halt pins. After all we must adhnit the juniors halve a taking way. Leonore Vinall gav-e a very enjoyable Senior party at her home on Friday evening, May 21,. Games and a tiwo course supper caluSCd the evening to pass ra-pidly and pleasantly.

One day the c'lass in civics was especially unresponsive to her efforts to make it understand the great game of Almerican politics. You all atc-t as lif you had never heard any on-e talk politics. Now I have heard people talk politics for ages. And yet they say a lady will never telll her aigie. Another -day the class was discussing prision reform. Miss Mor- rissey prefaced an interesting account of prison disciiprline by the remark Now, when I rwvas in prison. She failed to siay why she was win prison, 'but it was probiaibly for giving new questions on tests.
