School opened to- day, and once again the Seniors, Juniors and Sophomores take command of their respective studies, and prepare to con- tinue their voyage over the great Sea of Responsibility.

A mass meeting was held in the Lower Assembly Room this morning. Mr. Brooks laid down some new rules concerning excuses. We sol- emnly resolved to be absent but seldom, as the new process of Excuse Cards would tax our nervous systems too se- verely. We were also warned against holding track meets on the stairs. We are won- dering what the result will be when we have to go from Room One in the base- ment to Physics or Chemical Laboratory on the fourth floor between second and third periods. The remainder of the time was devoted to arousing enthusiasm for football. Mr. Rees addressed us, as did several other members of the Faculty. Again Death enters our class.

The Annual Board and Class officers were elected. This caused some Juniors to dream: I'd like to be a Senior, And with the Seniors stand, A fountain pen behind my ear, A notebook in my hand. I would not be a president, 'Tis hard to be a king, I would not be an emperor For all the wealth 'twould bring, I would not be an angel- For angels have to sing, I'd rather be a Senior And never do a thing. --Bob and Sheff, '13.
