PR0FKS80R SPINDLER. Fond of theses, outlines and exams Is this jolly good-natured man. Reading lists, from him. of endless length, Call on us for courage, moral strength. Versed in ethics, logic, deep and sound, Knotty problems do not him confound. Ladies’ hearts cares he not to win, Care-free, jolly, good-natured “Spin.” Miss DUNEGAN. “Cleanliness to godliness is next.” This forever is her text. Marks, and more than ordinary wear, Cause her worry toil and care. If in her good grace you wish to be, Books keep clean, or pay the fee. Professor KNOTT.

Planting, weeding, also raking. Lean of frame and large of heart. Well in school he acts his part Miss GRADY. She twirls the string of golden beads That round her n«x-k is hung. As Irish jokes and anecdotes Fall glibly from her tongue, in teaching painting, drawing, art, Didactics ever form a part. Miss GILFILLAN. Sweet, serene and gentle—some scarce know her name.
