Last Saturday Prof. Fallensbee en-

the court house with his lecture, ''Ge-
MUS and Gumption." This closed the
lecture course for the year. Mr. Fall
lensbee was quite a fair talker but
not much of an orator. 1t seemed
rather hobby with him to pause
every few minutes and chide his
hearers for being so quiet, we did not
feel that one could laugh all the time,
however he seemed to think we
might trace our ancestry to the mon
key tribe or to the Inhabitants of the
hills of Arkansas, as we did not keep
up continual audible litter, but bar
ring this he said many excellent
things and in what he might have
failed he made up by being long wind
ed, so everybody got their moneys
worth and were satisfied.
