After the manner of all Gaul the
Fence, in its material aspect. is by the
fiat of tradition divided into three parts
a generous stretch Of rails for seniors
and juniors, a smaller one for the
sophomores and a little tail piece for the
freshmen, which they may enjoy only
il and when they overcome the Harvard
freshmen at baseball. In fighting days
the juniors, the very Erirys of inter-
class warfare, used continually to incite
the freshmen to break established 'aw
and seize the sophomore fence, and then
would the battle rage as over the ships
at Troy, and many regulations be won.

1888 this Palladium of liberties stool at
the southeast corner Of the campus on
the spot now occupied by Osborne Hall;
in that year it was removed by the

of Durfee hall. From prehistoric times
this famous seat OF learning has had the
sanctity of an institution. 1t represents

The COURIER with the request that her
name be repressed: There is certain
bicyclist in the city who a year ago was
one OF the few 'cranks' who wouldn't
have bicycle il he was given the finest
one made as present. His friends
listened respectfully and argued with
him until, to make a long story short, he
eventually bought a high grade wheel.
This was the beginning of the making
OF one OF the worst bicycle cranks in a
mild way that there is in Lincoln After
an extended visit to the east he came
back with still more advanced ideas about
the wheel and, and after three or four
days dragged forth from the bottom Of
his trunk an exceedingly swell bicycle
suit which he showed to his wife with
some msgivings and great fears of the
'guying' he knew he was in for. But
that gradually passed over and then he
received a good many admiring remarks
for there was no doubt about it he did
look nice in the new suit. He was i'm
mensely proud himself and particularly
SO Of the golf stockings which he could
not help making remarks about. But
he has said nothing now since a memor
able night last week when in the pres
ence OF group OF admiring friends he
pate his COLTS fondly and said, These,
you kuow. are what the prodigal son
lived on They all tried to laugh but
the effort was painful and dead Silence

De Mon Temps

De mon temps, il y await certaimnent
plus de religion qu'aujourd'hui; on pri-
ait advantage, ct je trouve qu'en general
on etait plus heureux.
De mon temps, on ne passait point de-
want une croix sans oter son chapeau.
Les fernmes incliaient pieusement la tete.
De mon temps, on n'allait point au ca
baret pour depenser son argent; on jou-
ait aux boules, aux quilles ou a la bale
sur la place.
De mon temps, les enfants n'etaient
pas savants CONNIE aujourd'hui, mais lis
etaient plus respectueux, plus honnetes
ct plus obeissants.
De mon temps, runion ct la concorde
regnaient entire les habitants du village
ct de la paroisse. Pendant plus de qua
rante ans, personne ne fut cite en- justice,
car tout Sc reglait l'aimable; ca coil-
TAFT moins cher ct c'etait plus commode.
De mon temps, on ne vivait pas aussi
reimbursement qu'aujourd'hui, mais on
Sc portait mieux.
De mon temps, on priait advantage
pour les morris. Chaque dimanche, AZ
sortir de rofice, la veuve allait p1leurer
sur la tombe de son epoux; les enfants
recitaient un De Profundis pour leur
pere; les defunts faisaient toujours par
tie de a fami1le. Aujourd'hui, les TOM
bes sont plus Aeuries, les monuments Plus
sompteux ct les mors . plus oubl1es.
De mon temps, on croyait que lie ira
vail du dimanche ne portait pas bonheur,
ct mon graud' 'pere m'assurait que les for
tunes battles sur liniquite disparaissaient
toujours avant la quatrieme generation.
Ces remarques ont toujours etc justifiees
par rexperience.
De mon temps, on etait moins glorieux
ct on faisait moins d'embarras. Les toi-
lettes n'etaient nj brillantes, nj ridicules,
mais chaque menage await quelques dou-
zaines de chemises ct dix paires de beaux
draps dams son armoire.

marier, on regardait, d'abord, 81 la per-

euse, ST ellie await une bonne sante, 81 ellie

de toutes les autres qualities.

co.'s que les litanies deviennent intermi-
