DECEMBER.
Riding upon the ___ snow-white hair,
I come the last of all. This crown of mine
is of holly in my hand I bear
the thyrsis, tipped with fragrant cones of pine,
I celebrate the birth of the Divine.
And the return of the Saturnian reign;
My songs are carols sung at every shrine.
Proclaiming "Peace on earth good will to men."
—LONGFELLOW.
X. Y. Z.
On the evening of November 28th the first meeting of the X. Y. Z. Debating Club in its new club room was held. The room that has been fitted up by the club is on the fifth floor of Fraser Hall, and was formerly used as an office and recitation room by the department of public speaking. Early in the term, Prof. E. G. Frazier offered to give up the room; to the X. Y. Z. Club and arrangements were made by which the room was turned over to them to be repaired and furnished as they saw fit.
The work of preparing the room is now almost completed. The plastering has been patched, the walls and ceiling painted, and moulding put in. Chairs have been furnished by the club, and other furniture and decorations will soon be added. Electric lights have been ordered, and will be installed as soon as possible. In addition, the club has made arrangements to have the stairway leading up to the room lighted by electricity.
