To-day the Faculty and the Senior Glass have dined
together IN Alumni Hall where, but lew days ago,
they passed through the severe biennial examination,
without the loss OF a man. This afternoon has been
devoted 10 the singing Of the presentation songs the
reading Of class histories, the smoking OF the l1pe OF
Peace ard the final farewell. out under the College
Fins Such scene mus. be witnessed not described.
The mpglng of the grave and gay, the many syinpa-
thies gushing freely from warm hearts the severing oil
ties which are seldom stronger than between young
men Of kindred pursuits the last march through the
College halls arm in arm and the planting Of the ivy
beside the library walsall these scenes have passed
in quck succession and feelings ara too much IN
urison with those around us 10 write calmly OF these
student separations.
Here is one of the presentation songs:
Air" Happy today, boys"
STRIFE up ssriie up the song, boys
In unity OF hss
With 10y meet today boys.
In souo~ We mus. part
We slsdy cesse from constant ;o.
The years q bondage fed
Yet weep TO lave thu fostering soil
To which feet wrd.
CHoRys-Joyf al aud sad today. boys,
ssd and joyful art
We cast oar chains away boys
And weep that we are free.
No mere that Ms;in bell boys
Shall break iondest dreams,
While long upon the spell, boys
Shall wal: the chidns beams;
BIT when ~ hfe's sturdy race
That calls for and might
We shal have each others lace
To make burdens tsht.
CHosus--Joyal and sad to-day. boys
Nov kn the Pipe Of Peace, boys
And let the smohe rings fly,
TO the brow with ~rrsths boys
And Grape the classic shy.
Our College days are ht sround
With sunset smber glow
Soon these golden arrows bound
Forever from the bow.
CHoRus-Joyful and SD to day boyS
The Pow.wow Of the Freshman class, an institution
Of Yale alone attended with the blowing OF tin horns
and general let off Of Freshman indignation and mag
niloquence takes place this evening. The de Forest
Prire-Medal Speaking occurs on Friday afternoon Oh
this week. The speakers are only those who have
taken Townsend Essays, and a. this medal Is one OF
the highest honors at the University md the speakers
are among the first in their cass, there Is great
excitement concerning II. ,
The vacancy among the faculty caused by the death
of the late Prof. Omsted, has not yet been filled,
though many candidates have been proposed. IL Is
uncertain also whether Prof. Noah Porter viii retain
his position in the University, or In the theological
Seminary. The College cannot well spare him, for NO
one could be found who is better fitted than himself
for the difficult department, that OF metaphyscast study,
which he has in charge.
