PREFACE. The purpose of the S1+11NGLE is to put together, in permanent form, a continuous history of the events, serious and amusing, of the two years which we have spent together, as well as a short biographical notice of each member of the class. I wish to express thanks to Prof. Baldwin and Mr. Buckland for their contributions, and to Messrs. Donovan, Wheeler, Redington, Reynolds, Bosley and Bowers for the articles under which their names appear. I am also indebted to Mr. John Tilson, the editor of the first SHINGLE, for many valuable hints and suggestions. PERCV FINLAY. April I, 1894.

BAPTISMAL. I've appeared before large audiences In many a different partg I have met the ocean's tempests With a strong, unflinching heartg But the duty now 1've to perform, It phases me completely, And I feel myself forlorng Since I cannot do it neatly, When I think how much there's to it And the shortness of the time, Having promised to the Shingle, As the author of this rhyme, When these Words I did commingle I would do my very best, And though I cause some ears to tingle I hope favor from the rest. Barnum was a great man, ' Had strange freaks in his dayg He introduced the bearded lady,l But let our class go its way. Why he was not interested, I am sure I cannot tell, Though I think if he'd invested, 'Twould have paid him very well. For who composed this aggregation Thought themselves to be just pat,', Eyed the school with hesitation l And exclaimed, Where are we at? But they were a jolly crowd, Gay and happy to a man, Starting first with giant Dowd, To Larkin, dwarf of Birmingham.
