The sophomore class of Hamline in
cludes two members of very lnquls-
tive turn of mind, which led them into
a laughable, if not cOmical. situation
last Sunday evening. The two are low
ers. and have been in the habit of spend
ing Sunday evenings in each others
company. 1t happens that the new fire
alarm boxes have been put up lately
in and about Hamline, and that the key
of one of these boxes was left at the
home of the young lady. The mystery
surrounding the box proved too much
for the curiosity of these young people,
and they determined upon an eXam!na-
ton. The examination being COM
pleted, they could not again get posses
sion of the key, as only the chief can
perform this nice little piece of work.
A senior, residing at the young lady'S
home, came to the rescue, and brought
all his wisdom to bear upon the case.
He went to the station for assistance,
claiming that the children had found
the key and succeeded in using it. The
sub-station could give no help, and the
key remained out till next morning.
This necessitated the two sophs re-
naming up that night to watch the
little box for fear some one might send
in an alarm.
The Sophs haG most delightful time
at their Wednesday night banquet. One
of their members, III. II. Norton, will
soon leave for Europe, and the gentle
men decided to celebrate by giving a
supper to their lady members. The
ladies present were Misses Hattie Rose,
Alta Clark, Minnie Door, Vena Dunlap,
Annie Albertson and Della Palmer.
The young ladies of the Harmony club
