y Zh-en iwnemg The beginning of a history marks a distinct stage in the advancement of any primitive people, a stage of expansion both in a physical and in a mental vvay. Thus it is that this peculiar subgenus of the scholas- tic family, known as Scholasticus Akademos, having acclimated itself to the classical atmosphere of West- minster College, has lost its original characteristics and has become the regnant genus. After proving its predominance in several contests, races, and struggles, it has beenuovervvhelmingly 'con- vinced of the responsibilities of life and aspires to the high honor of Writing its own history.

Wright, Bartley, Gross and Souther voice the intricate passages of to-day's com- posers in the Glee Club, with skill attributed to inborn genius. The quaint customs and manners of the Wood- bridges, from the Land of Confucius, with Yonan, the Persio-American Bedouin, give the Academy the air of the Orient. , Other divisions follow, distinguishable from one- another in scholarship, society, both female and liter- ary, andbindividual peculiarities unreconcilable to my limited space.
