SENIOR NOTES.
The Seniors assembled IN solemn pow

speak, the deliberations began. TIL.
momentous question pending settle
ment was What shall the Seniors dt
for commencement" and the prescrib
ed answer vast f'Eat, drink and b
merry" by any means. In cold Eng.
lish itmeant one Of three things, either
play, a lecturer or essays. The noble
Seniors didn't seem to be very enthusi.
astic over-any Of the three. In fact
the only one which raised any emotion
at all, was the third. Essays! Essays
Every Senior shivered and grew pale at
that dreadful word, Essays, mot much
with unanimous howl it was voted
down. In spite Of their passivity, how
ever, the majority Of the class seemed
to be rather in favor of play. A few
preferred lecturer. Therefore con-
sidering the general indeeision- it was
deemed wise to postpone judgment I'M
til a later date.
"Palgraves Golden Treasury" is
proving to be very interesting. ''Gray's
Elegy in a Country Churchyard," is
now being studied. It has become quite
the style for the English students to 60
around bewailing their sad lot. Their
latest trouble is the writing of paper
on English Literature from the middle
English Period down to the Restora-
ton.
Cicero?-O, yes, the dear mans still
with US. He's just winding up his
fourth argument in the case of Cicero
versus Catiline. The dear mans been
that case since Sept. l, 1918.

SOPHMORE NOTES.
The Sophmore editor is i'll and the
substitute is not very well informed as
to news.
The Soph History classes are viewing
with alarm the prospect of a test on
century English History to-
But the worst is yet to come, the
mental gymnastics thru which Miss
Fenton expects us to go. She hasn't
found out yet there won't be any Chas.
Dudley Warmers in the class for few
Years. at least. |
We are hoping that the next time the
Sophmores play game with some 9TH
sr class that the class members will
'ome out in larger forces to see the
,ame. Miss Snider can't do all the
'elling, altho she does her part, well.
The Sophmores won tho in spite of the
carcity of yellers.
We Sophmores wish to ask, the edit
RS of the Agitator why our stone should
re the Blarney stone.
FRESHMEN NOTES.
Two tests this week! One in Ancient
history and the other in Latin.
We have been studying that old fav-
rite Rip Van Wrinkle, in English. Miss
icGregor has made the study very in
eresting. Last week she required us
o draw pictures of the little men whom
tip met in the mountains. The result
1g pictures were fanciful, to say the
east. No one need say the Freshies
aven't imagination.
Yes the Sophmores licked our boys in
hat Basket Ball game. But sa-a-y did
GU notice that score? Close? Just
eep an eye on the Freshies.
