TO the Men Who Hold the Line

Oh, the full-back bows the cheering
crowi,
And the halves, and the quarter, too.
AN the praise ascends TO the pluck yends
Who fight for the red or blue;
To none so great do dedicate
This poor little verse Of mine
But here's TO those in the fighting rows,
To the men who hold the line.
You watch the game and you'll all ex-
claim:
Just look at that fellow run!'
And you'll shout and roar when the
struggles DER,
That the game was only won
BY the full-back's pluck in that eolc.l;d
buck,
That carried him to the goal:
But you don't see fit to think bit
OF :he man who made the hole
Yes, the full-back has his need of
thanks,
And the quarter "did it ALL"
And the halves are praised, and a voice is
For the ends who took the ball;
Now take your cup and fill it ND
TO the brim with the dancing wine;
toast to those i'll the fighting rows,
To the men who hold the line.

An amusing reply WAS made to Il
question propoundcd to student at
the medical college by ono of the
lecturers the other day.
Tho instruction had Just been
giving his class few bits of choice
advice rs to what they should do IN
the event they found themselves in a
position demanding prompt action,
no person of greater ability being
available.
"Remember to have conlidonco in
what you have learned hero and keep
your wits about you," he I'D said,
and don't show the least hesitation
in your actions, but proceed to ap-
ply the lessons you have learned to-
day"
"Now," he asked, turning to n
young countryman in tho class, 'what
should you do if you should find
yourself with the care Of m, II who
had just fallen victim to an accident
of some kind"
The reply was conclusive.
"Pd send for dotor," said the

Away with Cigarettes!
Rf REV. J. w. BAIRD.

Yes, Mississippians arc Justly
proud of President Hardy and his
n. and M. college boys. 1t was
but request of his, but it appealed
to their wisdom and right nobly did
tncy respond to lis wishes. 1t was,
no doubt, with some difficulty that
some of these 400 young men put
away the companionablc cigarette,
but i'll SO doing they have reflected
honor upon themselves, their wor-
thy President, the institution and
the great State of which they are
citizens. May their race live long
and prosper.
President Hardy has set the pace
Tor other colleges. College boys
are not any more addicted to the
cigarette evil than others, for it
seems to have a peculiar facination
for boys. We are accustomed to
suppose that the cigarette was the
peculiar property of that wart upon
society-the dude; but, if we are
not mistaken, We have seen boys
whose most marked characteristic
seemed to be that they were not
dudes; but yet they had a pull Oh
the cigarette second to none in the
land. 1t is exceedingly delightful
to indulge the habit. and its attrac-
tions are such that few can resist,

the cat was seen lurking near the

other chicken. The ncighbor gave

SO he came over and demanded the
