The student who takes a living interest in col
lege spirit and takes part in societies, college pa
pers, and other organizations will be the one. that
will take interest and will work with zeal in every
walk in lite—social, religious, or political—after
leaving college halls.—Ex.
There are 340 men in the physical development
class at Harvard. Our ideal college course is one
we have never seen. It is one in which a man
will have his soul, mind and body equally and
symmetrically developed. Most men neglect es
pecially the development and care of the body
and for 340 men out of over 2000 to be interested
in this actually important matter, is an excellent
showing when comparisons are made.
The Buffalo Courier remarks of the Yale gradu
ates, class of '94 : Of the 238 men in the gradua
ting class at Yale about 5o have done something
toward paying their way through college and io
have received nothing at all from home. Money
has been earned in all sorts of ways, from tending
door in the State Legislature to shoveling snow
and caring for furnaces. The highest figure is
given for a year's expenses is $4,000; the lowest
is $135. Eight men found they could live on
$2OO a year; 34 on between s2oo and $3OO, 48 on
from s3oo to $4OO, 86 from $4OO to $6OO, and
the remainder, a majority of the class, on from
$6OO to $3,000.

TIIE SPORT
A sport was he to all the college dear,
Not passing rich—a check or two a year,
Remote from books he took his college course,
Of scraps anti rushes pleased to be the source.
His coat sometimes he pawned and oft' his vest,
And seldom he appeared as in "fully dressed."
Too many dames his heart had learned to prize,
So in exams. he oft' was known to rise.
His room was known to all-the loafing train,
Whose gold he won and no'er returned again.
Thus many shekels In his palms wore poured,
And e'en this failing helped to pay his board.
THE FREE LANCE.
An Ann Arbor student says that they have just
two rules, namely : Students must not burn the
college buildings nor kill any of the professors.
No less than twenty two Yale men are coaching
foot ball teams of other colleges. It is in order
for Yale to give some of her graduates the degree
of "Bachelor of Foot-ball."—Ex.

JUST WHAT THEY WANTED.
In the bright illumined parlor
Sat the lovers tote a tete,
In their happiness unmindful
That the hour was growing late
All at once upon the staircase
Sounded papa's slippered feet;
S/o was startled-he expected
To be shown into the street.
In walked papa—turned the gas out,
Thinking to out short their piftnks,
In one voice the two made answer
Briefly ;—all they said was "Thanks."

AN IMPOSSIBILITY.
Lust night, in peaceful slumbers, we
Did dream a dream until
In columns vast subscribers came,
Each man to pay his bill.

There was a young girl in our choir
Whose voice rose hoir and hoir,
Till it reached such a height
It was clear out of sight,
And they found it next day in the spoh
