FRANK WOOD, PRINTER, 352 WASHINGTON STREET, BOSTON.

HE football seasonfor this year is at anend, and we maywell study the lessonit can teach. A rec-ord of four gameswon to five lost is ap-

parently disgraceful. Yet under the circum-stances we may wonder that it is no worse.

Last year closed so auspiciously that all ofus looked forward to successes in the future.But we looked in vain, foibr the simple reasonthat the many left the work to the few. Withsplendid material apparently at our command,our team was allowed to be deficient in weightand substitutes. But for the brilliant work ofthree or four men our reputation would havesuffered terribly. In no other way can weaccount for the lack of spirit shown by manymen among us who are by nature and trainingbest fitted to represent Technology on, the foot-ball field, than by the lamentable lack of"public feeling" manifested among the stu-dents themselves. Only four years ago oneof our alumni paints the picture of Tech-nology turning out en masse to yell itself

hoarse for the support of its eleven. Then itwas an honor to play on our teams, and therewas no dearth of candidates. We do not dis-parage in the least the work of our presentteam, for they have had an uphill struggle.When lame and sore they have played timeand again for want of substitutes; they havebucked heavier rush lines from far smaller col-leges, and all credit is due them. However,that in no way alters the other conditionsstated.

Further, we must criticise the management.We realize the difficulty there is in makingsatisfactory dates, yet all of us must feel dis-satisfied with the schedule as it was actuallyplayed. The posting of notices of games orpostponements upon the day of their occur-rence is often of little benefit to men who haveto plan for the utilization of every minute.Beyond this, there are many alumni in thecity who would gladly attend home games ifthey knew of their occurrence. In " the goodold times" hundreds of posters, besides news-paper notices, kept all interested persons in-fortned upon such matters. Several minorthings, of importance, however, to the spiritand make-up of the team, have been broughtto our notice, but had best be omitted here.Our desire is not so much to criticise the pastas to withdraw from it a lesson for the future.

There is no legitimate reason why Technol-ogy, with twelve hundred students, should notbe able to support a coach and give its teamthe benefits ce a training table. If we are tomake our better supply of material counter-balance the greater time for practice possessedby most colleges, we must see that our menare properly trained, relieved when disabled,and coached by those able and free to developtheir play. If the Institute is to play footballat all, let every student realize that upon him

individually rests a share of the responsibility.Our season opens so late that the possibility ofthe football men beginning practice a week ortwo before the fall term begins is ever beforeus. Many, indeed, are the means by whichour record for next year can be improved, andeach detail should be balanced for its utmostweight. Now, we must all feel grateful toCaptain Thomas and his men for past work,and endeavor to support them better in thefuture.

_.. -- DEVICE for the1~.is ' Iconcise record of

l, tS Aiimportant c u r r e n tevents-such asclass and societymeetings, f o o t b a 11and athletic games

.m ..J-has been sug-M,~A , gested by one of our

.trl"~ ~ ~progressive stu-dents. The need of

{~t - ~'-~" some such bulletin,to be devoted exclusively to legitimate studentnotices,-and not to be at the service of everyboarding-house keeper in town, or every manwho wants a roommate or who has an olduniform for sale,-must have struck each oneof us at some time or other. By that meansalone could a person be sure of ascertainingat a glance the events of the day in season tobe benefited by such information.

The plan, in brief, is to have a board ar-ranged to hold a number of equal-sized cards,each large enough to outline the event to beadvertised. The originator has volunteeredto take charge of such a bulletin if the Insti-tute Committee will provide it, and to see thatall notices sent to him are properly published.The good to be gained from some such ar-rangement is too apparent to need further ex-planation. The Institute Committee is investi-gating the problem, and will probably providethe board if the classes will bear the expense.

HE financial condition of the AthleticClub is deserving of consideration by

every student. That one of our oldest andworthiest organizations should suffer for lackof funds is to be deeply deplored. A mem-bership proportionate to the size of Tech-nology would put the club in flourishingshape, and this membership THE TECHI hopesto see realized. Let each man attend all thegames given by the club, and in this way, aswell as by joining it, show his loyalty. THE

TECH regrets that the state of its own treasuryforbids the financial help which it has oftenin the past gladly furnished. The suggestionof an extra concert by the Glee and BanjoClub for the benefit of the Athletic Club is agood one. Probably the musical organiza-tions will not feel like giving much money toanything until the success of its tour isassured, nor could we well expect them to,but doubtless every member would be willingto participate in an event for the aid of hisathletic firiends.

HE matter of better light in the Gym,mentioned in a recent editorial, has

caused considerable discussion. It seems thatelectric lighting is inadvisable, owing to itsexpense, and to the temporary nature of theGym itself. The land upon which the build-ing stands belongs to the Boston & AlbanyRailroad, which proposes sooner or later tobuild a station there. We must look, then, foran improvement in the gas illumination. Thetrouble at present is caused by the size of thegas supply pipe, which is entirely inadequateto furnish the necessary amount of gas. Thegreater the number of lights, the smaller iseach flame.

Shortly after four o'clock students begin toexercise, and generally artificial light isneeded even at that early hour. We recom-mend, therefore, that proper piping be intro-duced into the building, in order to get all thelight possible out of the gas.

THE TEC-H. 9

HE German club, suggested in THE TECH

a couple of weeks ago, has called forthmuch discussion. Several of the professorshave manifested considerable interest in thescheme, and promised their aid if desired.No one doubts the good to be derived fromsuch a club, so it only remains for someenergetic student to set the ball rolling inorder to create another worthy organizationat Technology.

T has been proposed that the Senior photo-graph committee investigate the cost, advis-

ability, and means of publishing albums con-

taining half-tone reproductions of all the pho-

tog.aphs taken of members of the Seniorclass, of the Faculty, and a few of the bestviews cf the various buildings. The expense,it is believed, would be only half that of thephotographs themselves. In this way theentire list will be within the means of manystudents who would otherwise be unwilling topay twenty or thirty dollars for cabinets.THE TECH urges a thorough consideration ofthis matter.

NLY one week more remains for ouraspiring poets to take advantage of the

ten-dollar prize offered by THE TECH fororiginal verse. As yet no one has any verystrong claim on it, so the field is open for ahot finish.

;OMMUNIGAIPIONS.

The Editors do not hold themselves responsible for ohin-ions expressed by correspondents.

To THE EDITORS OF THE TECH:-

To say the least, it is unpleasant to be crippled withpoverty when possessed with such eternal pride; butsurely something must be done at once to help theAthletic Club along. In years gone by, the largelyattended "pulls" of our once famous tug-of-wvar team,were a source of much revenue to the Club. Now, asthe sport is condemned, the M. I. T. A. C. is nolonger self-supporting. It must look elsewhere forassistance. It might be well for the corporation toconsider the matter of appropriating annually a small

amount for our welfare, as is done in many colleges.Also the Glee and Banjo Clubs could give all enter-tainment for our benefit. "Charity begins at home."Let them carry through all their plans for the Westerntrip; wve wish them success. We only ask that anextra concert be given for the benefit of the AthleticClub. H.

To THE EDITORS OF THE TECH:-I desire to call the thoughtful attention of your

readers to the custom prevalent among the studentshere of tipping hats to the professors. I consider thispractice worthy of severe condemnation. In the firstplace it tends to create a caste by giving unduedignity to the office of professorship. Who of uswould think of paying a like tribute to the successfuldown town merchant? But is a man any the lessworthy of respect because he enters upon a mercantilecareer rather than teaching? We practically pay ourhomage to the occupation and not to the individual.This I believe to be wrong, for it is man who ennoblesoffice, and not office which truly exalts man. But thepractice is even more deplorable in that it diminishesthe self-respect of the student. It savors neither ofchivalry nor of manliness, but of servility. It placesthe student in an inferior position; it is repulsive tothe inborn American sentiment of equality; and,worst of all, it opens the avenue to hypocrisy andvicious policy. It is inevitable that some studentswill foolishly believe that they can thus raise them-selves in the eyes of their professors.

These criticisms arise from no lack of sincere respectto our professors. They have willingly met us halfway, and have by no means considered this outwardmark of respect as a part of our duty to them. Formy own part, I cannot believe that they desire it.Why not, then, abandon this senseless and uncalled-for practice? c.

To THE EDITORS OF THE TECH:-

In an editorial in a late issue of THE TECH, thehabit of tipping up chairs in the luuch room wasseverely criticised. I have taken my lunches in the"Co-op." lunch room for about two years, but I donot see the justice of your criticism. An observingglance at the men seated at the several tables in thelunch room shows, to one well acquainted at theInstitute, that the practice is not a bad one at all, but,on the other hand, one that should be encouraged.At one table will be found the professors; at another,

some instructors; at another, the Mechanicals areenjoying their lunch together; at still another, theCivils; and yet another, the Architects. A closerinspection will show that, for the most part, the menseated around any one table belong to the samecourse, section, class, or, at any rate, are intimatelyacquainted with each other. I lunch regularly with aparty who arrange their work so that they can passtheir lunch hour together; and it is acknowledged byeach one to be one of the most pleasant hours of theday. Inquiry has shown that what is true in this caseis true in several other cases.

Supposing, for instance, that one of these partiesgoes to the lunch room and does not turn up chairs;by the time all are seated it is highly probable thatthey cannot get seats together. As a result the partyis broken up, and each man eats his lunch with theidea of getting through as quickly as possible. Thismay seem of little consequence, but it certainly is not.We do not have any too much time to talk over Insti-tute affairs; the lunch hour, under the present condi-tions, offers an excellent opportunity for it. We wouldhave more class spirit, the Institute would be betteroff for it, if we had more such meetings among thestudents. Who can deny that the frequent meetingof the students at other times than those of work isone of the greatest promoters of college spirit? It isneedless to cite examples. The fact that these menknow before they start that they can probably sittogether, is the reason they arrange their work to meetthere. If they could not turn up chairs, they would,in but few instances, be able to sit together, and hencethey would not take the pains to arrange their workfor this meeting.

It does not seem reasonable to suppose that anyman or set of men go about maliciously or thought-lessly tipping up chairs and leaving them vacant.One seldom sees a chair vacant long at a time duringthe rush. If some one has been so ungentlemanly asto forget it, his double is just as likely to come alongand forget that it was tipped up. I have seen thishappen several times. Furthermiore you can but wishthat the old principle, " First come, first served,"should hold. If the first there is the first served hewill get a seat. If the first there is not the first served,it is no reason why he should stand, while a latercomer should sit and eat. Tipping up chairs, then,evidently allows the first corner to enjoy the mostprivileges, which is as it should be.

Professor George E. Hale.

AMONG our recent graduates, there is onedeserving of all praise for his scientific achieve-ments. Prof. Geo. E. Hale, of the Universityof Chicago, graduated in 'go in Course VIII.His tastes lay in the direction of astrophysics,as exemplified by the title of his thesis, thisbeing on the "Photographing of the SolarProminences." During a trip to Europe lheread a paper on his favorite subject before theBritish Association for the advancement ofScience. The merit of this paper evokedspecial comment from the many distinguishedscientists who were present, and reflected greatcredit on his scientific ability.

Professor Hale's private observatory, wheremost of his original work is carried on, islocated in Chicago. With the apparatus hehas there a large amount of investigation onthe solar prominences has been carried on suc-cessfully, and results have been attained byhim as yet unexcelled. The photographic in-strument used is a reflector of about twelveinches aperture, and it is fitted with a "spec-tro heliograph," an instrument of his own de-sign. By its aid he has succeeded in obtain-ing marvelous photographs of the sun's faculaand prominences, and doubtless he will in thefuture devise some means of successfully pho-tographing that pearly light known as the"corona," which extends for thousands of milesin every direction round our sun.

The new University of Chicago was notlong in recognizing Mr. Hale's ability, and itconferred on him the chair of professor ofastronomy. The large 40-inch refractingtelescope, the gift of Mr. Chas. T. Yerkes tothe University, will be under Professor Hale'sdirection. This is the largest instrument of itskind in the world, and will soon be erected atLake Geneva, Wisconsin, where wonderfulwork is expected of it.

We are glad to feel that one of our recentgraduates has, through hard wvork and persist-ent effort, reached such a position as thatgranted to Professor Hale by the University of

Chicago. Let us wish that he may have everysuccess in his filture work, and that he maycontinue to reflect credit upon Technology, ashe has done in the past.

ON November 28th the Institute Committeeheld a meeting in THE TECHI office.

The committee appointed to procure sampleshades of the colors of the Institute, reportedthat the words " silver gray" might mean anyone of three shades, and " cardinal red" anyone of two or three shades. Samples will bepresented at the next meeting of the Commit-tee. The committee which was given thework of making arrangements for a trophycase stated that a space can be obtained eitherin the rear of Rogers corridor or in the hallbetween the two doorways leading into Hunt-ington Hall. The Faculty desire definiteplans before they grant a space, so the com-mittee was directed to continue its work, andto make special effort to collect trophies. Forthe benefit of anyone who has a trophy w-hichhe will donate for the case, the Institute Com-mittee volunteers to take care of such articlesuntil the case is made. The sub-committee,from whom any desired information may beobtained, consists of Mlessrs. B. HIurd, Jr.,G. W. Hayden, and R. K. Sheppard.

The committee appointed to confer with theFaculty on a design for an Institute pin statedthat none of the designs presented are up tothe desired standard. The committee wasrequested to consider the designs a littlelonger. If then the same opinion prevails,the committee will announce that competitionfor the design will be reopened for a limitedtime. The Institute Committee wishes thestudents to understand that it does not offer aprize. It believes that by such action itwould exceed its powers; nor does it author-

ize or advise the offering of prizes by indi-viduals.

Dr. Tyler has offered to make such arrange-ments that students who wish to obtain copiesof any of the photographs of the Instituteinteriors and exteriors which were exhibitedat the Fair, may do so at reasonable rates.Messrs. Price and Fish were chosen to conferwith Dr. Tyler, and to collect orders for thephotographs.

It was suggested to the Committee that a"Card Bulletin Board" placed in Rogerscorridor would be a valuable addition. Onthis board, in regular spaces, would be placedall student notices, which are now distributedover many boards. Thus all announcementsof prospective meetings, and the like, for oneday would be given together. Mr. G. WV.H-ayden was appointed to ascertain the ex-pense, place, and other details relative to thebulletin.

For the benefit of the new students, wegive below a short history of the InstituteCommittee, and what it has done.

Last February the Executive Committee of'93 suggested that a student committee beorganized, having for its object the further-ance of the interests of the Institute at homeand abroad. The suggestion was immediatelyacted upon by '94; and, meeting with generalapproval, such a committee was organizecl,under the name of the i' Institute Committee."The constitution provides that it shall be com-posed of ten members during the first termand twelve during the second term of theyear, each class delegating as members itspresident and two other men to be elected byballot. During the first term the Freshmanclass is represented by its president only.The President, Secretary, and one othermember of the Faculty, at present ProfessorSedgwick, are honorary members.

Among the things accomplished last year,it secured the appointment of several ablemen as reporters of Tech news for some ofthe prominent dailies of the country, thereby

insuring adequate and accurate press repre-sentation. It assisted the Institute in prepar-ing the World's Fair exhibit, and compiled aportfolio of photographs representing Tech-nology's social life. It secured the adoptionof an authorized Tech pin, and in many otherways worked for the advancement of Techinterests, especially in making the Institutebetter known among the people at large, andin developing its social life.

The possible good to be gained from thework of such a representative committee isalmost without limit, and it is the duty ofevery student to support the Institute Com-mittee.

Cross-country Run, December i6th.IN order to create more class interest in a

class championship event, and also to maintainfairness, it has been decided to make a fewregulations concerning the cross-country run,December I6th.

First, each class team must finish, in orderto count class points.

Second, the first three representatives of eachclass to finish shall comprise the class team.

Third, the class scoring the least number ofpoints in the order of finishing shall be thewinner; the second lowest, second; andc next,third. For example, the class which has threemen to finish first, third and fourth, or eightpoints, will beat the one whose first three menin are second, fifth and seventh, or fourteenpoints.

Fourth, points count five, three, and oneto the class finishing first, second, and thirdrespectively. On the other hand as manyas wish may compete from a class.

The first, second, and third individuals tofinish will count toward the general excellencecup five-, three, and one points, respectively.

First and second prizes will be given, andalso a third, if more than five finish the course.

Any further interpretation of these rules andany omissions will be attended to by theExecutive Committee of the M. I. T. A. C.

Ninety-six has adopted a class cane.

F. C. Green, '94, was aboard the Colum-bia on her trial trip.

W. J. Batchelder went to Chicago last weekon the B. A. A. football team.

The Architectural Society will have its firstformal dinner on December 8th.

Some one has said that "God's only mis-take in creation "is in the Institute. What is it?

Mr. T. T. Dorman spent considerable of histime at Technology during a recent visit toBoston.

The Sophomore class picture was very rea-sonable for the quality of work, and givesgreat satisfaction.

The Glee and Banjo Club gave a fullconcert at the Kernwood Club, Malden, onMonday evening, December 4 th.

The Glee and Banjo Clubs are consideringa proposition from the Trinity College clubsto give a joint concert in Springfield in Jan-uary or February.

L. A. Carey, A. D. Maclachlan, and F. H.Rogers were appointed from '96 to forward allgrinds, poetry, etc., from the class to the '95"Technique" Board.

The Junior class dinner, next Tuesdaynight, ought to be made a great success. TheClass of '95 has been taunted by other classesfor a supposed lack of corps d'esfr/t, and thisdinner offers an opportunity to refute the alle-gations.

Any relic or trophy of historic value toTechnology, and suitable to place in a trophycase, should be forwarded to the committee in

At the meeting of the Society of Arts to-night, Mr. Howard A. Carson will read apaper on the "Metropolitan Sewerage Sys-tem." Mr. Carson is a member of the Sew-erage Commission, and also belongs to theCorporation of the Institute.

Complete sets of examination papers in allimportant subjects of the various years, havebeen collected by Messrs. J. C. Locke andR. C. Wheeler, '94, from whom they may beobtained through the Cage, at reasonable rates.Notices concerning them are in all the build-ings.

Mr. W. (in American History): "The ex-amination will consist of five questions, butyou need answer but Iour. The first one ison 'The Division of America between Spainand Portugal.'"

P-rk-r (immediately): "Give us the nextone, please."

At the Freshman class meeting, on No-vember 28th, a committee was appointed toorganize a class athletic team and make allnecessary arrangements for entrance in theFall Indoor Meet. The members of the com-mittee are J. P. Ilsley, G. M. Lane, H. W.Allen, J. W. Chapin, and C. W. Bradley.

Footballs, baseballs, bats, class flags, menus,and all articles which have any connectionwith Technology life, are needed for the tro-phy case. Stuffed roosters, greased pigs, cane-rush relics, and the like, may be classed asdesirable articles. Mr. Collins has sent fromChicago the banner carried by the "Cadet" onher memorable cruise to the Fair.

The ballot box used in the '96 class election,which has been in use in other class affairsduring recent years, was originally providedby a member of the Class of '91 for the " Tech-nique" election held in '89. But its historydoes not stop here, for it had formerly be-

longed to a gentleman who used it forty yearsago in a young men's debating club. It is a

i relic worth preserving.That we are to have a summer school of

architecture is practically settled. ProfessorHomer has taken the matter in charge, andhas already laid before the students of thisdepartment a rough scheme of the programme.It is proposed to hold the school in and aboutQuebec. The principal work will be sketch-ing, and, as is well known, this locality offersan excellent field for such work.

Mr. B. R. T. Collins, '88, is now in theengineering department of the Chicago Edi-son Company, which is installing a steam-power plant, consisting of twenty-four verticaltriple-expansion engines having a total ca-pacity of twenty-seven thousand horse-power,the largest of its kind in the world. Probablymore of our alumni are situated in Chicagothan in any city besides Boston.

A delegation of about seventy-five Juniorsvisited the Watertown Arsenal last week uponspecial invitation from the commanding officer.Lieutenant Hawthorne accompanied the party,and gave much information. The workshops,foundry, and the giant testing machine wereinspected in company with an officer who fur-nished all appropriate explanations. The new8-inch rifle, mounted upon a thoroughly mod-ern carriage, and the testing machine, thelargest in the country, were specially inter-esting.

The Senior architects handed in the designson the first problem of the term the day be-fore Thanksgiving, after using very muchmidnight oil. Professor Despradelle inaugu-rated a custom which is practiced to a largeextent in the Beaux Arts, of having the under-classmen assist the Seniors. The last two orthree days, when the Seniors were very muchrushed, the Juniors "worked like Turks" forthem, in several instances sitting up all nightwith their overworked brothers. The advan-tages of this co-operation are mutual, as theJuniors learn a great deal by it.

The cross-country run is scheduled forSaturday, December i6th.

Harvard beat U. of P. on Thanksgiving Day,26-4, partially wiping out the disgrace of herdefeat by Yale. Yale, on the other hand,was deceived by the cunning Tigers, andbeaten by her favorite score reversed, 6-o.Poor Yale! She has had more than hershare of victory, though, and should not be-grudge this glory to the plucky New Jerseycollege.

Among the Tech men who went to NewYork to see the Yale-Princeton game, wereW. iI. Bovey and H. F. Copeland, '94,W. E. Barbour, Mortimer Frank, '96, CarlShuttler, '97 .

Ninety-seven shows up well in athletics.Some very fine hurdling material is beingdeveloped.

Entries for the class championship gamesclosed yesterday. Each class is well repre-sented, and close results are looked for. Thegames next Saturday will commnence at 2 P. ar.sharp.

Mr. J. F. Moakley, of the D. A. C., hasbeen appointed permanent handicapper of theN. E. A. A. A. U.

The big B. A. A. annual indoor handicapmeet will be held early in February, inMechanics' Building.

Much interest at present is taken in sparringand fencing by the students, and some veryclever performers may be seen any eveningat the Gym. A meeting may be held inthe spring to develop this line of sport. Bothare very pretty and very interesting events towatch.

It is rumored that no more Harvard-Yalegames will be played in Springfield. Thefour years' contract has expired.

Harvard plays U. of P. in Philadelphia, onThanksgiving Day, I894; so B. A. A. andChicago A. A. will play football on JarvisField, Cambridge, on that day.

On December 2ISt, in the B. A. A. gym-nasium, the following events are open toM. I. T., H. A. A., and B. A. A.: Parallelbar-for points; pole vault-handicap, tostart at 8 ft. 6 in.; standing three jumpshandicap; fifteen yards' dash-handicap.

Gymnasium director Boos has allowed theathletes free use of the Gym from 4'q5 to5.30 each evening for the past two weeks,until the class championship games nextSaturday are over. He will gladly assistany who need advice in track athletics.

Mr. Boos is deeply interested in his classwork, and is justified in preserving order.His variety of work creates interest. Allwho need physical culture should profit bythe director's advice.

The New York Times offered a beautifulmedal for the athlete who scored the mostpoints in track events at the WVorld's Fairgames. C. W. Stage, Cleveland A. A., andF. C. Puffer, N. J. A. C., each scored tenpoints. They refused to toss for the medal;so it was voted to cut it in halves through itslongest axis, and give a portion to eachathlete.

Cornell is now having a 400,000 pound test-ing machine set up in her engineering labo-ratory.

A comparison of figures shows that thedormitory rooms at Yale range at much lowerprices than do those of Harvard.

One hundred Freshmen of the College of IBellefonte, Penn., went on a strike becausetwo members of the class had been sus-pended for having cider in their rooms.

There is a movement at Wellesley to securean athletic field for college use.

The Armwv anzd Navy 7ournal says: -TheMassachusetts Institute of Technology, ofBoston, Mass., is growing each year in thefavor of army officers as an ideal school inwhich their sons can be educated in the high-est scientific professions of to-day." It alsogives a list of nine names of the instructorsand students at the Institute who are sons ofofficers of the army.

THF.HE Lotunger is sad to think that the Rogers steps,his long Faithful friends, miust so soon becomne uncon-genial, that the icy hands of winter ere long will claimthem for their own, and that therefore TMH] TECHoffice utip amid the cornices must once more becomehis only haunt in leisure moments. Already have thesteps donned their wooden mantle for the winter, andthe days are fast slipping by when friend may meetfriend there in stolen minutes to confer in p)leasant in-tercourse. It has been said that the lobbyr of theHouse of Commons is the best club in London, andsimilarly is the Rogers steps the meeting place of theclubl) of clubs at Tech. Where can so many men beseen in so short a time,-and it must be added for soshort a time,-where may men meet to greet and hurryonward with the best of feelings toward all as uponthese steps ? Then, too, in this club there are no dues,no initiations, and no black balls. What matters it ifthe professors scowl as they hurry in. This is nodoubt because they are excluded from membership-they and the co-eds. Yet might these too rejoice andponder over the saying that " absence makes the heartgrow fonder." There are few of us indeed who cannot " stop and spend awhile " for a chance word andgreeting between the recitations, and few, too, who ina vacant hour, would not gladly bask in the sunshineat this vantage place to view the passing events in bliss-ful carelessness. There is no place where the Loungerwould rather be than in this attractive Bolyston Streettheater box, where he may oft outwatch the passers byin their many posings before him, and hle welcomesthe brother Loungers, who like him, prefer this studyof character to "book and picture and every fair de-vice of art."

He likes to watch the fair, modest maids go trippingby on the Brunswick side, and, forsooth, the ArtSchool girl, the Chauncey Hall victim, and the brilliantgrind of Boston University are interesting, too, as theypass in parade quite ready to smile and bow before the

Lounger can realize that it is his good fortune never tohave met them. The students as well, passing in andout, are an interesting lot, each betraying his class andkind. There is the Freshman with his still confidentair of proprietorship, the jaunty Soph., the jovialJunior, and the Senior with his general air of satisfac-tion and a sort of respect-me-I-am-going-to-gradutatelook that the Lounger has often envied. Here may bedistinguished the sorry grind, the gay chapel attendant,and the overflowing athletic fiend. Next comes alongan absent-minded prof. with eye fixed on vacancy,who stumbles up the steps regardless of the many hatsso shrewdly doffed about him. There goes theinstructor, whose careful toil with the young idea hasnot yet rendered him oblivious of the world abouthim. Here now is Mrs. Stinson slowly climbing thesteps, and the older students stand carefully to oneside and greet the kindly soul with courteous bow.When the crowd is gone the postman comes with hismingled load of joy and pain, his dainty notes andtailors' scrolls. The electric cars go buzzing by. Atlast the Lounger is alone and at rest. The momentsfly uncounted but not forgotten. "'Tis now growinglate, and the daily coal team makes its appearance.The lumps of potential energy go rattling harshlydown the scuttle, regardless of the busy minds withinold Rogers and of the nerves of the Lounger on thestel)s. Even this cold harbinger at last is gone, butstill the Lounger lingers, for another daily visitor isyet to come. Ah, here he is! 'Tis the organgrinder with his linked sweetness mechanically turned.How the Lounger would miss this angelic imitator!But fainter and fainter grows the tune, another loaf isended, and the Lounger hies him to a more comfortableif less interesting resting place.

At Luncheon Time.At luncheon time, when odors rise,

And, with a whiff to appetize,Ascend old Rogers spiral stairInto the dull abodes of care,And with beguiling breath surpriseTill visions bright our minds devise,-Stew, soup, croquettes, and chocolate pies,-How sweet the dream on these to fare

At luncheon time.

Ahl, hard is fate! As I surmise,A counter bare before me lies;

"XWhat hast thou left, O maiden fair?"My stew is gone '! Ah, where ! ah, where!Next time I'll be, You bet your eyes,

At lunch on time.w. H. S., '94.

Her Picture.I stand and gaze with wonder;

For some artistic elfHas sketched upon this canvas

A likeness of herself

I pause, not quite believingThat she, who greets me so,

Had left mne at the stationBut two short months ago.

I fancied, as I told herHow soon wve then must part,

That 'neath her long, dark lashesI saw a tear-drop start.

And I had said in parting,Her face I sore should miss;

I promised love unchanging,And sealed it with a kiss.

And now I hold her picture,And speak with gentle tone;

But lips oft used to smilingRespond not to my own own.

How cold, and still, and deathlikeHer picture seems to be!

And how I wish that some oneCould bring my love to me.

E. S. M., '96.

A Harvard Man's Lament.Oh! we all event down to Springfield,

And our hearts were light and gay.Oh ! we were so blithe and merry,And our purses, heavy-very;For we surely thought to carry

All before us on that day.

Oh! the bare remembrance of it;How we sadly stole away.

But tell me, how in thunderDid the gods of fate so blunder:'Were we fools enough to squander

All our surplus in a day?

For we came home in the evening,When the streets were dark and cold;

And we pondered long in sorrow,H-low we'd have to hunt, to-morrow,For some friend from whom to borrow;

For the Yales had all our gold.B. S. II., '94.
