Some man with a brilliant imagination started the report that there would be a faculty reception to-night. Whereupon the man who takes in all the free shows immediately got "solid" for the occasion. It proved to be another campaign lie, and many fond hopes and expected mashes were nipped in the bud.

The following is taken from the University Quarterly, and slightly changed:
A young N. S. U. Miss,
Written asked for a kiss,
Denatured contented,
She sweetly consented,
And their lips looked exactly like this:
An old gent interrupted the blues,
And said : 'Who's this young fellow, Miss ?'
And without more aid
The young flowe flow,
And his eyes looked exactly like this :

The Orends had a small attendance, but a very animated meeting last Friday. The program, with one or two exceptions, was well carried out. The "resubmission" question was handled by Riggs and Horton on the affirmative, and Bennett and Dunn on the negative. Some very strong arguments were made on both sides, but the judges being of whisky proclivities, heard only the arguments of the affirmative, and rendered decision in their favor. The society had its usual drill in parliamentary law.

What Freshmen Should Do.
What Freshmen Should Do.
Go easy.
Have a class meeting.
And hold a "Freshmen ball."
Join Beta Kappa Chi.
Not get mashed too much.
Join a literary society—to vote.
Bring in the professors by gotti.
Paralyze the professors by getting an occasional lesson.
Subscribe for the great religious weekly; only fifty cents.
Not show their superiority to the faculty too much.
Keep their mustaches in until they are juniors, like Rockwell.
Look upon a Senior with great reverence for what he ought to know.
Go to chapel Friday morning.
Everybody does that, you know.
Not bet on election, especially before election.
Beware of telling the profs how much they do not know.
Get up some excitement to-night, and have a "reputation."
Join the Y, M. C, A., and attend daily lectures at the Academy of Science.
Be sure and not take too much exercise in the gymnasium.
Class Poem of'87.
READ BEFORE THE CLASS.
Should you ask me why I stand here,
Stand before this class assembled,
With these written sheets of paper.
I should answer, I should tell you,
I was by the class elected,
To record in verse, the actions
Of the famed men and maitens
Of the class of '87.
In the moon of Falling Leaves
Came we hither from our homes
To pursue our course of studies,
And to warn the warden Fresman
Of the dangers which we've passed!
To pursue with vim our studies,
And surpass all former Sophs more
In our grades and win such homes
For us to continue our journeys
To resound the well cursed praises
Of th' invisible '8.
Can there any class before us
Boast that one man of their number
Won two prizes and three honors,
In the work of but one session?
This much boast we; and still more
Hope we for our mighty Crane,
Vailant bird of '87.
Ever upward, onward souring,
When next honors are awarded
By the mighty honor dolls.
"Twins but last spring that '80,
Laboring with a great illusion,
Judging us by their own standard,
lazy, worthless and weak minded,
Sought to terminate two studies,
Then a few of our brave men.
Strove to hinder such an action.
But with strength b beyond their strength,
As 'tis off with maddened creatures,
'80, alas, r pulsed them.
Still one trophy bore they with them ;
"Twas the tombsone, written os it—"
"Sacred to Miss Ann Lytics
And to Miss Zoo Ology."
Reinforced, again our men
Songht the campus; but *twas over,
Snoudering earners told the story.
They alive had been crieded;
And the murderers now were holding
a piece of fine cloth.
To the grave their way when wending,
Suddenly some one exclaimed:
“Where in all thy reams, oh Pluto,
Has that tom’sbone to its way?”
Let them search, they cannot find it;
It had gone to Pluto, truly,
Burned on that same funeral pyre,
Soon, howe’er, fair Am Alytics—
Rising from the fame like Phoenix,
With her friend, Zoog Oloz,
Will engross the hungry minds.
But just fate soon overtakes those
Sophomores of “S”
An architect by many,
Proved without a doubt next day.
Now young ‘88 attains us
To take them in our protection,
As we took the last year Senior.
Our supremacy they’ve admitted:
For their motto was composed,
Also were their colors chosen
By one of us, of ‘87.
So I ask you vote upon it,
Let us shield them in our arms,
Safe from ‘85 and ‘6.
In our search for knowledge
We are not at all afraid
By our actions to be judged.
Let us so advance in future.
(B) I hope with a different motto.)
