an interesting career. As “every day is a little life and our
whole life but a day repeated,’’ this daily “ sizing up” of our
selves may be of infinite help.
A Scrap-book. —What a history may be contained between the
covers of a student’s scrap-book! The foot ball columns, with its
graphic tales of the heroic deeds on the grid-iron of such knightly
defenders of a glorious Alma Mater’s fame as Cartwright, Harris,
the Dunsmores, Curtin and hosts of others. The pithy para
graphs written to record the doings of Mitchell, Atherton, Walker,
Hayes and Nesbit on the diamond. The ten-inning tussle the
“ Blue and White ” gave the “ Orange and Black,” do you re
member that ? The detailed accounts of the athletic prowess of
White, Harder, Thompson, C. M., Fisher, Price, McKibbin,
Kaiser and Scholl in field and track events.
Then there’s the social side—the pretty, tasteful little dance
programmes, with their deucedly fascinating narrative of how one
‘ ‘ courted the ladies of their heart ’ ’ when ‘ ‘ the merry dance
traced fast and light.” “ A ’sousand and one t’ings ” and “what
not!”
A File of the College Papers. —“ Ti-ie Free Lance ” ranks
well with any, and is much superior to many a paper coming
from a similar institution. It is a recorder of events. Its short
stories are good food for the wearied brain. When an Alumnus
to-be has such a college paper, a complete file is only a fitting
supplement to his well-kept diary and his fresh and lively scrap
book.
Etc. —And thus would we store up for ourselves treasures
which in ‘ ‘ afterwhiles ’ ’ will bring back to us vivid pictures of
the happiest period of our lives —and now,
“ ”fis done!
Deep in your heart you wish me gone,
And I depart,”
THE RUDE—THE EXCEPTION,
‘‘ All the world loves a lover,”
Is true, without a doubt,
If you except the rival
Who tries to cut him out.
EDUCATION IN RAIEROADING,
Excepting possibly the aldermanic profession, there is no branch
of human industry in which matters of so great importance are
The Free Lance.
