EASTERN HIGH SCHOOL.

Probably the most popular sentiment
given expression by the students at the
present time is thus echoed:
Sing a song of Easter time
A time OF gracious action;
And not behind in this respect
Is found the High School faction.
They close the school for one whole week
The pupils gayly sing,
and isn't that gracious deed
AS fitting any king? Revised
The graduating class keeps alive the
school spirit o. good comradeship BY oc
casional little PARTIES, at which exactly
the same crowd is never present. The
latest was the elegant reception given at
the home of Mr.. Hunt. In the tastefully
arranged parlors many contributed to the
entertainment by songs and Rotations.
All participated in the Virginia Reel and
enjoyed hugely the Jack Horner pie"
each slice of which contained dainty
gift The refreshments, served in courses,
were enlivened by the lovely carnations
which each one received as souvenir, as
well as by the rare jokes and stories
which went the rounds.

No raids have yet been made upon the
rival organization, the "Phruight Gath
erers." probably for the reason that
Hayes and Offut, described in the Bizoot-
ers' constitution as Monk Brigham and
"Stiffy Krouse," have laid low 1t is
a fact worthy of special mention that
those two formidable generals of the
once powerful organization have recently
been keeping out Of sight as much as pos
sible. Since the constitution of the BIZ
zooters was drawn up and made public
they seem to have realized that their
doom is sealed. Foc time the school is
free from their constant depredations,
and their names are seldom mentioned.
Pupils Give a Musical.
delightful musical was given by
number of the Western pupils at Carroll
Institute last Friday night for the benefit
of the field and track men. Mr.. Arthur
J. Karr was the prime mover in the ar
rangements for the entertainment. Dane
ing followed the programme.
Mrs Mumford. member of the Mothers
Congress from Philadelphia, delivered
lecture to the pupils recently on the sub
ject of Courtesy" The whole school was
present to hear Mrs. Mdmford's remarks.
The Current Topics Club has been de-

mcnt of the organization deemed it ad-
visable to lower the price of membership
to % cents and have large crowds in at

the way the pupils are patronizing the as
ISOLATION it seems that this course was
indeed wise
A feature of the Business Association
this year is the fact that Miss NJ. R.
Sheldes has been elected president and
will direct the affairs of the organiza-
ton with the aid and advice, OF course,
OF the prominent boy members and Mr.
Charles Hart, the faculty adviser of the
nine. 1t was thought that by electing a
Young woman to the head of the associa-
tion greater grasp could be had upon
the boys OF the school and more money
raised for the needs of the team. Ac-
tual developments prove that this sup
position was correct. Certainly, the ath-
letic association is in far more pros
porous condition than it has ever been
before in the history OF the school

WESTERN HIGH SCHOOL.

There is a certain boy student named
Western. who is particularly fond of
girls. Indeed, his liking for members OF
the fair sex is quite as noticeabk as that
of Ianky Bob" Hagner. 1t is Said that
Mr.. Hunts affections are centred in
certain girl student who comes in from
the country. He has always protested
that he did not care a snap for girls, and
would never go with one. But of late he
has evidently beer pOndering over the
question, and has reached the decision
that his views heretofore have been en-
tirely wrong
And to make up for deficiencies in this
line he is now devOting the major pOr-
ton of his time to the fair maidens, and
has become the main topic of conversa-
pupils congregate to eat lunch. 1t has
been proposed that If Hunts devotions
continue delegation of the "Bizooters"
will have to administer some terrible
punishment to him.
"Bizooters" in Power Again.
Speaking OF the "Blzooters' recalls the
fact that they have again come into pow
er, and the organization is the FREEDOM

been made considerably longer by the ad-
dition of numerous amendments, and is
now a really formidable document. The

fragrant odor OF which the students are
tautalized every time Dr. Lane takes din
ner in the drawing room. The pipe of
peace was then smoked. Every important
guest OF the Khediye is presented with a
sword. signifying equality with his high
ness, and 4 horse, typifying the freedom
of the country. These recollections are to
be continued next Tuesday. and those who
attend the Eastern next year may be
favored with repetition OF these lee
lures with stere opticon views.
The series OF Monday morning talks

Many of the seniors are awaiting their

A Great "Set-Out"
The boys are still talking about the
fine time they had at the ''set-out'' given
to Company F. They are unanimous in
the opinion that they have the best cap

other requisite necessary to win the flag
is the best company. are very sansg!ne

The Graduate Club.

A systematic correspondence with the
the Federation of Graduate Clubs at Co.
lumbar University during Christmas week
has led to some interesting information
regarding the work that other clubs are
doing.
Mr.. Henry B. Wright. delegate from
Yale University writes: Owe have no
graduate club. so-called at Yale. There
is department graduate club in each
branch of study-ciassical English. phi
Iosophy, etc. each concerned with its own
special subject. These are purely techni-
cal in nature. The social life is looked
after by the graduate department OF the
Yale Y. VI. C. A. Hence the three hun
bred or more graduate students never
meet in any one big club

school and at the proper time flag is

that they must return to the building at

It is a common custom among the boys
tor the first person who catches sight of
the flag to yell at the top of his voice:
Rags out! Rags OUT" This, of course,
calls the attention of the other pupils to
the nag.
One day last week several OF the boys
decided TO play joke upon Dick" Tag
CART, the young man whose duty 1t is TO
run out the flag each day. and incident
ally to prolong their recess. One morning
they came to school very early long be-
fore the other pupils. They had a small

been selected for the duty in hand. Re
CARELESS of clothing or cut and scratched
hands and faces, they went to work, each
lighting as though his life depended upon
the issue of the battle. The Junior had
the honor OF his class at stake in seeking
to protect the flag. while the sophomore
was fighting to destroy the green emblem
for similar purpose.
Meanwhile the members OF the two
classes stood watching the struggle and
cheering the combatants on at the tops
of their voices. The students scratched
and bit at each other. in their efforts to
obtain possession of the flag.
Green Ornaments Torn OFF.
Gradually the "soph" succeeded in
tearing all the green ornaments from his
opponents clothing. and the flag was
rapidly being demolished. The combat
ants rolled upon the floor of the corridor,
but as the pair were about evenly match
ed neither youth could gain an apparent
advantage.
Finally. with last burst of energy,
the "soph' succeeded in ripping the flag
the unlocking members of each class to
rush in to secure the bits of green bunt-
ing. a great scrimmage began. The jun
iors masscd their football players in their
front rank and hurled themselves upon
the sophomores. Their onslaught was met
by still fiercer one on the part of The
lower classmen, who dashed the juniors
q
Mementos of the Rush.
A stumbling Junior clutched one of the
pieces of bunting and held on to 1t for
dear life. The "sophs'' grasped the re-
naming pieces at the same time and
made off with them.
The juniors, however. continued to fight
among themselves for the ownership of
the scrap of bunting. The sophomores
stood off and laughed at them to their
hearts contents. Finally the project Of
discipline arrived and untangled the
squabbling students.
The juniors divided the small piece of
bunting and each member of the class
now wears a piece OF the green in his
buttonhole.
The ''scphs" also divided the spoils and
pocketed the scraps as mementos of the
liveliest rush of 1902.

The frst-year class of the Georgetown
Law School held a meeting some time
ago to consummate arrangements for its

posture which enables them to receive all

through the glass and keeps them so
warm that even during the night hours
they do not perceptibly cool of. and il
is rarely necessary to light fires in the

TIME violet is such a favorite flower
during Lent that word or two
i about its everyday culture may be
interesting at the moment. The
American woman's favorite flower seems
to be the brightly scented blossom, which
gives us both a standard color and n
distinctive perfume.
About 1000 900 600 violets are grown for
the American market each year, there be-
ing some 200 farms in the United States
devoted to their culture. One OF the larg-
est OF these is situated within a short
distance of this city. This farm COM
prises about two acres OF ground, covered
with glass, and for six months in the
year, from October until April. this is
covered daily with new crop OF fragrant
purple bloom, yielding each morning some
80 900 violets, to gather which some score
o: persons are employed
The violets raised on this farm are of
four varieties, a France, California, and
the Maria Louise and White Cyas sorts.
The aggregate number OF violets yielded
here during the season is about 5000 600.
The space covered by the plants is di-
vided up into thirty, long, low, narrow
houses of earth and glass. These houses
are about I25 feet in length, 10 feet in
width, and feet in height. The beds in
each of these houses comprise about 1900
square feet Of space, the violets being
