The volume is larger this year
than usual, and from the avoirdupois
standpoint is the best that has ever
been issued. 1t contains 240 pages,
besides lot of advertising. The
book is dedicated to Senator Elkins,
and among a lot of other good things
has full page picture of him. A
good lot of advertising is carried,
and all things considered, the book
should be a financial success.
The opening pages are devoted to
the faculty, the name of every men,
Der with his or her medal inscription
being given. The Senior Class is
treated generously with an individ-
ual picture of and record of honsrs
that would not look bad ON tomb
stone. Some of the "honors" men
toned are worthy of remembering.
One young man POUNDS his hope of
future greatness on the fact that he
is wee president of the Parthenon
Literary Society, and chairman of
the Missionary Committee of the Y.
NJ. G. A.
The fraternities and classes are
treated in good shape, and are given
generous portion of the book
Each frat has a full-page picture
of the roll of active chapters, and
and the mem bership here. The
memorials to the dead are a new
feature worthy of note.
The Athletic department is little
bit short. There is no picture of
this years base ball or football
teams, and for some reason or other,
none of the records in track athlet
les are given.
Literature is the title given to
one section of the book including
about so pages This may be just
and appropriate title. 1t is to be
hoped some one will read it and find
out. There is poetry by Tucker
Brooke, Sarah Waugh johnson and
others. and short stories by Brooke.
Alhig, and anonymous writers too
modest to claim their productions.
The best of the book is left to the |
last. Over 40 pages are devoted to
roasts and grinds, and most every |
body gets a little attention. For
instance there is liie-size portrait
of Dean Frazer, peacefully feeding
the Lambs" and well displayed ad,
which says that Ajax Hare. will
register preps at 50 so per capita.
Some of the jokes are rather raw,
most of them, of course, are onlv
funny to those who know the par
ties. However, there are several
bright things which will 90 any
place.
On the whole, the Monticello this
year, lssan interesting and entertain
ing volume throughout, and a book |
that every student of the University
should want. 1t reflects credit upon
the editors and also upon the Uni
versity.
