Page fflcen l Y tj' 1 S3 1 5 A Night in Summer Softly croons the night wind, Thinking, love, of youg Far stars paint their jewels For thee in the dew. Farther still my heart is yearning, Yearning, love, for you. Fire-llys drifting thee-ward Lead my heart awayg Stirring in the tree-tops, The moclcer tries his lay, While tenderly I follow him And sing the corning day. And dream the while of you, love, And think that we have gone Through shadows of the starlight To roam the night alone. But ah, my dreams it is, love, That roam the night alone.

Cn your right, that magnificent brick structure-no, not your left, your right-is the gymnasium, commonly called Jim. In it are kept many relics of the Dark Ages, such as water-tight shower- baths, co-ed rats, and Guy Den- ton. ' Keeping your eyes to the right, in the background you see the homes of the working men, West Side Row. There are six houses, each containing eight rooms. 6X8:54. Three of the rooms are inhabited. Let us proceed. Still on your right, back in some trees, you see a building that is occupied by Foxy Grand- pa McGill, the greatest musician on the campus-on a pianola. The noise you hear is the music. KISSAM I-IALL. Keeping straight on ahead, you pass Kissam Hall on your right and College Hall on your left. Look to the right. That little concrete do-funny is the saloon. Make a side trip and get a drink. You will note two brass plugs in the baseg step on one,-if it's
