ID. .. Chapman, after graduating from
the Commercial department, turned his
attention To Science, and again pradu.
ated In 'S3 from the Scientific oourse
After twice distinguishing himself, this
ambitious ysung man was not vet salts
ned. 1t may seem strange that one
should care to complete three courses of
study IN one institution, hence the ex
pianation. Ambition il partly the cause.
and an exceedingl, poor memory the re.
mainaer OF the cause. Now the annaI
lat does not mean that he has forgotten
that be has already twice graduated. but
that IL Is thought best TO cultivate his
memory by study to such degree that,
when property In entrus cd to his care.
he will not forget it's existence, or At
least that he will not Sd far forget i'm
portant Ledger" accounts as TO leave
them unguarded in neigh boring town.
At present he ia trying the effect of the
Classical course on this failing, which
he hopes to complete IN 80.
George Judson. Is. s., began teaching
after leaving school, but taught but q
short time until the cause of botany de-
manded his attention. Not finding any
specimens here tnat were Just what he
wanted. III the fall OF 'S2 he went to
Iowa to look after the "Flora" of Wa
terloo. This pleased him so well that
he contracted with Mr.. Phelps of that
city for An animated specimen, which
he brought with him waen he returned
to Washington IerriIory and trans
planted in Whatcom county. He has
been counl y surveyor for the county be-
fore mentioned, but at present has "a
store at Lynden ia company with his
father.
Miss Shorey, f. s., of '82, and Miss
Palmer, b. s., of 'S3, both of Seattle,
are Interested in the study of music,
having botn taught others and at the
same time improved themselves. They
are also members of the class to which
NJ 1873 SsndersOn belongs; the class stud
ying domestic economy. an accomplish
ment not included IN any of the depart
ments of the University. All have the
same principal teacher in this soho Il
expericnoe-while each has Il private
teacher in her own hsme. Botn Miss
Shorey and Miss Palmer are making
their lives useful by using their talents
both at home and assisting in the TEN
perancs cause; Miss Shorey having been
Secretary for the w. q. /. U.
John huntington, OF the class of 'S3,
another ambitious youth, after complet-
ing the prescribed course of study in
the Commercial course, intends to con
quer also the Scientific. which he hopes
to complete in SO.
q. A. Colman, b. s., has profitably
spent his time in the study of mechan-
los and in al extended tour through the
States and Europe. de says his pursuit
Is in search Of happiness, but, Judging
from his genial ma anner, We think the
object of his pursuit has never been far
from him.
OF the nineteen, we have to students,
two postoffice employees, five house
keepers, three learning to be housekeep-
ers, one storekeeper, one carpenter. enc
and of the eight who pre-
pareI to be teachers, only one-half are
yet. We know not why II Is,
unless it be- that since
MEN are only boys grown tall,
Hearts don't change sluch, after all,
the teachers think that, after learning
during the Normal training how To sue
manage small boys. they are
equally qualified to manage boys grown
tall. in consequence thereof have mar
ried.
Miss Anna Spar.ing and Miss Lulu
Root were today received as members
Of our association, to whom We extend
\ hearty welcome.
That all members may prosper In the
future rs in the past Is the sincere wish
Of the annalist of 81.
