Stare. Commencement game.
Alton Packard.
We hesitate in giving indiscrim
inate praise to the entertainments in
the Y. M. C. A. course this year,
but the illustrated talk by Alton
Packard in the Auditorium on Satur
day evening surely deserves a word
of appreciation. Mr. Packard was
here two years ago, and practically
all of those who heard him at that
time were glad of the opportunity to
.sten to him again. Consequently,
when he stepped upon the platform
the Auditorium was comfortably
filled with a larger audience than has
been seen at any Y. M. C. A. enter
tainment this year. The talk, the
subject of which was “Vanity Fair,”
described amusingly many of the
weaknesses of mankind. The most
interesting feature, however, was the
large number of crayon drawings
that the speaker made as he talked,
giving no intimation of what the
cartoons would be until the very
last stroke brought out the idea in
tended by the artist. There were
several excellent pictures of scenery
as well as cartoons, and they proved
to be very interesting and well ex
ecuted. If Mr. Packard comes
back next year he may be sure of a
large audience.
Notice.
The 1907 edition of the La Vie is
about exhausted. All students or
others, who desire to secure a copy
of the College Annual should pro

than two score of these books on
hand and after these few are dis
posed of it will be impossible to se
cure a copy of this valuable book.
Seniors who have not secured the'r
second copy or who wish additional
copies, are requested to obtain them
at the earliest opportunity. La
Vies at 402 McAllister Hall.

The Thespian Dramatic Society
will soon issue a call for candidates
from the upper-classes for parts
in the new play which it is intended
to give this season. This new pro
duction is to be a burlesque on one
of Shakespeare’s most famous plays,
and is somewhat of a departure
from the plays usually given by this
