"straw ride" variety was perpetrated
Monday night by some Hill gallants
and some girls from Baldwin Hall.
But the entire party didn't go. Tha's
where the fun is.
Will Harmon said he saved his
potatoes and canned fruit Monday
night, but his pet goose got frozen
to death.
This is the Sunny South. Thanks
awfully but we don't want any Of
your Cold, frozen North
There is not iery much news on
the hill this week. Nearly every
body is doing the same thing-sitting
by the registers and telling how cold it
was the winter that grandpap went
West.
Last Friday was week ago. The
violets were blooming in sunny yards
round town and Prof. Waller had his
calf tied in the front yard to nip the
freshly sprouting grass on the lawn.
Tuesday A. VI. the thermometers
registered variously from IS to 1o
degrees below Cairo, the calf is be-
hind the stove being fed warmed
milk from teaspoon and the violets--
oh where are they!!
The Alpha Sigma Junior Society
gave very enjoyable entertainment
IN their hall last Friday evening,
The hall was filed to the utmost ca.
paeity. The first order of the pro.
gram was music by the Second Alpha
Sigma Quartette. James George re.
cited very good comic defamation.
The Egyptian Salute was simply
fine! This was given by Alexander
Dilopoulo and E. N. Quist. They
were both dressed in Egyptian cos.
tunes and presented the appearance
of Egyptian Mohamedans. They
went through with all the manoeuvers
CALCULATIONS, salutes and prayers o.
the unique Salute Of Egypt. The
debate was holly contested between
F. E. Laughed and Howard Parker.
Observation-Disclosures, "That a law.
yer is justifiable in defending crimi.
nal whom he knows to be guilty.
The argument produced on both
sides of the question was forcible and
we'll presented. The audience had
the great pleasure Of listening to q
beautiful solo on the Violoncello by
W. B. Smith Of Georgia. This is the
first Violoncellist that has favored q
Maryville audience since the "Franci.
Hughes Concert. was at Maryville.
This solo was heartily applauded and
the graceful performer gave an encor.
on the running gears Of the instru
ment, the best part having been re.
moved. Alexander Dilopoulo alst
sang an "Ancient Geek Song" which
was immensely enjoyed.
The Second Quartette rendered
four pieces one of which-"M,
Loves Own"-was heavily applaudet
and much enjoyed. The recitation
: of Chas. Laughed was entitled
"Ned's Bear" This piece was conf
, and we'll rendered. Daniel Castil
delivered a well prepared Oratiol
entitled "True Ideals" Mr.. Cas-
tiles Grafton contained some goo,
) thoughts and was spoken in forclbl
manner. The Alpha Sigma Advanc
was read by w. R. Sabin, who pre-
sented paper that rivaled many 0
former excellent papers of "Wit an
t Wisdom that have been read in tn
Alpha Sigma Hall.
The Tableau-"David and Goliah
Y was presented by w. B. Smith an
James George with good effect.
