THE MAXWELL CLUB 4 59 lield of action there is betrayed every legal criterion. And this prophetic soul declares that a few decades hence, when the whirli- gig of time has ordained that the Maxwellian of Ninety-seven has dignified the bar and graced the bench, when his likeness is dis- played on the walls of every law school and well patronized law ofhce in this land, along with Blackstone, Kent, Marshall, and Gray, when in his hand the beam of justicels scales stands sure, and his name becomes The hope of all who suffer, ' The dread of all who wrongf' then will the authors of the following regret the slighted prefers- of the Maxwell Club. Folsom has uno nights oiffl Toby has too much business. Cunningham goes to watch the ama- teurs performf' Flaherty has 4' no time? Wilson can not attend because the chairman will not give him proper recog- nition. Jones, being a man of Horclincwy ability, but ua fair disposingl' mind, thinks there is U nothing to be gained by such association, and the Maxwell Club thinks so too. Creigh attends- to practice football. These answers, however, are not represen- tative ones. The great majority appreciate the benefits the club has for them, and desire to reciprocate and make the club, as Greenfield says, 4' the best in the University? As we come to the close of the year, and the class of '97 goes forth, each will pause on the threshold of the club-room, look longingly back, and breathe, Farewell, a long farewell, to all my greatness. That is the scene of my contests and triumphs. The contests, and truly the triumphs, are liable to be less frequent now. Each feels prepared, however. All the disguised blessings of counsel and restraint have been lavishly bestowed upon himgand it would seem that where these twin sense-compellers labor so untiringly, nothing but innate perverseness could keep him from correct action. But the combined influence of counsel, restraint, and everlasting prodding will fall short of bringing some of us up to the high standard of the complete lawyerf, Train his ears liowe-'er you will, A donkey is a donkey still.
