masses of short cut hair, tightly
curled, extending across the tops of
their heads.

Editorial Association.

The members of the Editorial
Association which met at Morgan
town last week, were very loud in
their praises of the splendid man
ner in which they were entertained
by the fraternity and the people of
that beautiful and prosperous little
city. The visit to the State Uni
yersity, which is grand place of
learning, and the industries around
about the city, were interesting and
greatly enjoyed. The steamboat
ride of about forty miles down the
picturesque Monongahela river
and return, was delightful and
most enjoyable.
The banquet given by the citi-
zens to the editors and their
friends at the Wallis House, was
one of the SWEETEST as well as one
of the finest affairs we ever had the
pleasure of attending. 1t was a
regular course dinner, lasting from
9 p. m. to L a. m.
The people of Morgantown we're
very attentive to the visiting edi-
tors, and did everything in their
power to give them good time.
The railroads in the State were
liberal in their favors to the editors,
and seemed to vie with each other
in extending courtesies to the
craft"
