ART. EI.ORA A. MKSSINC.ER. The Art Department in its course aims at the development of the mind through the eye by awakening in the student an appreciation of the beautiful, and by training him to see correctly and to reproduce truthfully. The work consists in free hand drawing, in light and shade from geometrical solids, casts, and still-life. This leads to the more advanced work in color— painting from studies and from nature. The course gives the elements of art instruction in a way that opens up avenues of industrial success. Assistant Instructors. 2 A GEORGE E. KOPENHAVKR. A H MARTIN R STUBBS, Pu.L)

Lahore et Honore « ITS tendrils clinging to the mother stone. The ivy 'gan to climb the towering walls, And thus two hopes became entwined in one When entered ' 1902” I’rsinns halls. But not the ivy 'tisof which we sing In this short lay in which our praises ring. We, whirled along on silent wings of time. Assimilating knowledge where we could. Attempting the ladder of fame to climb. That on the world we may bestow some good, ' For case and idleness we were not born ! 1 Have lived to labor and not to adorn. True labor makes all doubts to disappear ; It leads the worker to Dame Nature’s laws, Dispels all feelings which might be austere, And gains success for which we toil, because “ Renown is not the child of quiet repose ; For sluggard s brow the laurel never grows. Our honor is a priceless virtue, which Defiled once, can never lie restored. -To those who wage the l attle strong of life With a true heart it serves as shield and sword. Life's journey may be hard,—despair overwhelm. Yet the port is reached with honor at the helm. With our device we must succeed in all. By Honor and by Labor ” we surmount Those things which formerly us did appall And seem too great too high for us to mount. Let godlike Reason, from her sovereign throne. Speak the command, I will! and it is done.” 26 W. P. F., ’02.
