18 THE EUNOMIAN. ©LASS OP ' 8$. THOSE class badges purcliased in your Sophomore year, ' 84 — what are you going to do with them? That was a brilliant scheme, and merits praise. A class with two badges is to be envied. We hear you are going to take the gold to make those rings, — good idea — economy. While pondering we suddenly thought of all those appli- cations, commonly called nick-names. What a full collection you have to be sure ! What admirable taste ! There is Dad or Gaar, and Grandma, and Schneider, and Snorks, and Ary, and General, and Bebe, (and perhaps more, but we are weary,) and poor Sill has left. There is something classic there we think ; we can ' t find it though at first sight. Let us try to find something near about what they can mean. Gaar! — gaar ! we have heard of that ? — yes ? All at once the thought of that invincible Greek monos yllable flashes across our mind ; but why a man is called, or, we can ' t see. We can understand Grandma, (always pronounced with that final a strongly emphasized,) and Schneider, but Snorks, — we give it up, — but it suggests familar sounds. We will try it again ; Snorks, — the nearest to it in Latin is sons, a malefactor — not that ; German, — sorge, sorrow — not that ; Greek can ' t find anything that approaches it, — nearest is coffin — not that. Let us see what we have ; a malefactor, sorrow, and a coffin, — pleasant thoughts to associate with a fellow. However they all run in the same channel ; perhaps there is something deep in that word Snorks. Ah ! we have it : take the ini- tial s, reverse o and n in sons, and we have snors, — k put in for euphony. How deep ! We infer that the derivations of Ary and the rest are, if anything, deeper, hence we will leave them in their obscuritv.
