captured on the new field, and then how we had it in for old St. Albans, and could not get it out, and that fieldls name is, therefore, l1 Mud ' all this season. And we would tell how spring, having come, would not stop, but went, and winter came back, and with it Easter, with the girls and the Easter magazine, and how then the Faculty were moved to tears, for they and their lectures were cut to the heart. And how again many died, and many were carried away by the ravages of kalykosis, and of the many, one even as far as Norfolkabut that is a joke on College. ' r ' w a j y Oh! how many things should have been told! This has been a great year, this of 1901-2, and it would need the combined efforts of many pen-pushers to begin to describe it. Herr von Carlisle has sung early and often the glories of ll Rawlins, but a mightier task awaits him here. Dan Dorraine has written tales of more than Balzacian Vigor, with climaxes so startling that they had to be whispered in the hero's ears, yet he would be sorely put to it in this case. Arniado, too, has sandied ' much in his time, has Gadzooka l sewed up in a sack, Bobo ll backed off the board, and a vocabulary of slang ll right off the reel, for he only invented Boriology, and best ememplifles it; but the great Boriographos himself could not invent new words enough to tell what this year has seen. No. it is beyond them. There have been contests in the Wash. and the Jeff. and the cemetery that Topics itself could not find room for; there have been invasions by fair women too numerous for the Senator from Clarke to celebrate in rounded periods. The historians of the Classes have recorded, each in his kind, and Leota. the Egyptian Queen, has peered into the Future, but it is no use. The record of 1902 simply can not be written.
