Speaking of supplementary, thereby hangs a tale about the 'tmost unkindest eut of all, for when he of the bulbous forehead and double-decker brain, to whom less than 99 in any subject is rank failure, was 'A warned because he went away to liurope without having completed his suppletnentary term note-book, the other youths of the class who found themselves also warned had a tnost beautiful tale for papa, showing how little a warning' on the report meant when both sonny and the prince of Denmark were in the same boat. As one of the aforesaid youths remarked, I feel quite distinguished by having ' warned ' on tny report. 'l'he class has done its accustomed amount of drawing, as the great number of worn out drawing boards, and the increasing use of spectacles by the Seniors will testify.

And now, having treated the history of the class in lighter vein, from the time it entered the Institute till, as full fledged M. E.'s, it will at the juniorbball make a swan-like end, fading in music, the his- torian, in closing this final history of the class of '91, reminds his classmates of their happy and suc- cessful life at Stevens, and sincerely hopes that there is in store for each as bright a future as his day dreatns have pictured out 5 and that when, in years to come, having either reached and passed the goal of his college ambition, or while still pressing on toward the prize of a successful life, he will occasion- ally look back on the four years spent in Stevens as among the happiest memories of the past, the I6
