The Life of The Faculty. All at once without any previous warning, one is rudely shaken out of his blissful dreams of home and visions of cookies and pie by the awful jangle of that blessed (?) bell out in the yard. This comes off about seven-thirty, but it ' s all a fake, you don ' t have to get up till the fi ve-minutes bell. Then you yank on a bath robe and make a hundred yard dash for the Judd (Mess) door — eight o ' clock. Goat hash, stewed prunes and hot dog, with C. S. molasses a la dilute for dessert. At a quarter of nine everybody is herded into one big room called the Chapel. After the regular devotional exercises, we are forced to hear Doug rear around for a season of great length. Now young men, I see that someone has been spitting on the walk leading up to the Administration Building. I can ' t understand that, for you all are young gentlemen and should never expectorate, also you learn to use your lead pencils only at the right places — the wall is not the right place. I notice also that the marks are on the decline; that means too much loafing up town. Now, while I do not like to condemn, yet I must say that you are all children yet, and your conduct must be regulated. The new Science Hall will be ready for occupation next week at two o ' clock. Oh yes, Kelly will scrape the ball diamond early to- day so as to have it ready for Coach in the morning. Are there any more an- nouncements from any member of the Faculty?. I will meet all of my classes in the new Science Hall two weeks hence — all absences in the meantime must be accounted for , says Prof. Cartledge. 1 would like to see the following men at my room sometime between the fourth and fifth period to-day: Mr. J.

After these last parting shots the young ladies are dismissed, then the young gentlemen are sent out into the loving embraces of their dear professors. (Oh, how I love my dear teacher.) Suddenly the door of the Greek room closes behind your back, and you feel as though you are being gradually dropped into an abyss of despair and engulfed with hyomei . The recitation is frequently interrupted to remind one that I have been teaching Greek for twenty-three years . After pronouncing a prolong- ed curse upon them as won ' t study , the class is dismissed with a parting injunc- tion against making noise in the halls. Now we have it! Oh, the glories and the bliss of that hole dominated by one called Venerable . Now heah, its very evident that you haven ' t studied the lesson to-day. You ought to be at home hoeing the veggetubles in your mother ' s gyarden. If you wouldn ' t smoke so many segyars and play so many cyards, and ride around so much in Mr. J ' s cyar, you might not flunk . (Above likel y to be
