the candidate to resign himself absolutely

that period of time he may not speak
to other people withou: permission OF his
guardian. and during his weeks proba-
ton he must do any and all things that
his temporary keeper may order. ANUS

result of this method of procedure. A
young chap from a western city landed
ait the college With couple of servants
in livery. for he was very rich
1.-THE westerner, however, in spite OF
his horses and men, was very good
chap, and, this fact being discovered in
due course of time, he was elected a
member of the club. He knew nothing
of the election until he received notice,
and upon its heels followed the inevitable
weeks probation. His sister and NUM-
Der. of her girl friends had arranged to
put in a week In the college town, and
he had prepared to entertain them law
ishly, an elaborate lawn-party at way
side ips being among the entertainments
laid out The visit and his period OF
probation fell at the same time. and, as
without permission he could communicate
with no one, he was unablessto write
and ask his sister to delay her coming.
Then his mentor discovered how the land
lay and made his plans accordingly The
visiting party was met at the train and
dinners and. theatre parties, teas at coll
