The work of the club has been di- vided into three main branches and estimates for the various activities have been constructed the committees in charge.

Miss Carola Ernst, fellow of Plant House, assisted by the Plant House girls, entertained the faculty of the college in an extremely novel man- ner on Saturday evening from 8-12. In accordance with the old, Belgian custpm tine programme was informal and unusval. The entire house was opened for the evening’s programme, which opened with a grand march through the house, lead by Miss Ernst and the president of the college. Fol- lowing the march, a programme of dances and music was given by a arcup of the students on the open stage in the basement of the building. Mr. Currie, instructor in Dramatics, by spe request, rendered several rumorous selections. Belgian games were played, by the evests, to whom such games and form very + excited rauch interest and enjoya- bie comment. Puncl, sandwiches and cakes were crved by the committee in charge. The entire house was decorated with spruce and pine boughs, red roses and carnations. Then cntrance in the house was especially noticeable, the steps being banked with gay sofa pil- lows and easy chairs, whilg on either side were slender plne trees. The Vir- ginja Reel and dancing completed the evening’s programme, which was heartily asreed to be the most unusual and enjoyable of campus affairs. Appeared in Joint Reci Mme. Hudson Alexander, soprano, and Frederigk W. Weld, baritone, ap- peared in a joint recital in the college on Thursday evening in the gymnasi- um.

I've wondered what kind of a chap he'll be and I've wished | could take his_hand, Just to whisper, “I wish you well, old man,” in 4 way that he'd understand. 1d like to give him the cheering word that I've longed at times to hear; 1'd like to give him the warm handclasp, whenever a friend seems near. I've lurmd my knowledge by sheer hard work, and | wish | could pass it o To the fellow who'll come to take my place some day when | am gone.. Will he see all ‘the sad mistakes I've made and note all the battles lost? Will he ever guess of the tears they caused or the heartache which they cost? Will he gaze through the failures and fruitless toil to the underlying plan? And gain some strength for his weary task from the battle which | have man? 1 dare to hope he may pause some day as he toils as | have wrought, And gain soem strength for his weary task from the battles which | have fought. But I've onlys the task itself to leave with the cares for him to face, And never a cheering word may speak to the fellow who'll take my place. Then here’s to your health, old chap, | drink as bridegroom fo his bride— | leave an unfinished task for you, but God knows how | tried. I've dreamed my dreams as ail men do, but never a one came true, And we'll meet some day in the great unknown—out in the realms of space, You'll know my clasp as | take your hand and gaze in your tired face, Then all our failures will be success in the light of the new found dawn— So I'm drinking your heath, old chap, who'll take my pace when I'm gone. —EDWARD COLLINS in the Gateway. THE WORD By ELLA WHEELER WILCOX Oh, a word ‘is a gem, or a stone, or a song Or a flame, or a two-edged sword; Or a rose in bloom, or a sweet perfume, Or a drop of gall is a word. You may choose your word like a connoisseur, And polish it up with art, But the word that sways, and stirs, and stays, Is the word that comes from the heart. You may work on your word a thousand- weeks, But it will not glow like one That all unsought, leaps forth white hot, When the fountains of feelings run,” You may hammer away on the anvil of thought, And fashion your word with care, But unless you are stirred to the depths that word Shall die on the empty air. For the word that comes from the brain alone, Alone to the brain will speed; But the word that sways, and stirs, and stays, Oh! that is the word men heed. HUMOR OF THE DAY “Does your husband ever refer to r honeymoon?” ¥ ¥ es, he often wishes he ‘had the money he spent during it."—Judge. “Let’s go and hate lunch.” “T'm not hungry.” “Neither am I, so I'm _taking ad- vantage of it."—Boston Transcript. “Do you know, T believe that the Count is getting interested in Adele.” “What makes you think s0?” “Well, yesterday he borrowed five hundred from me."—Life.
