she gets the inspiration to sing, and then she does it with a vim to the discomfortof her room-mate.Miss Smith lives in Harrington, Del. She is therefore a blue-hen chicken.She is twenty years old-now a chicken twenty years old! \Vell! Such a caseis not entirely unknown in College.One of her best qualities is that she always speaks kindly of everyone, andis frank and open in her friendships. The girls love her for this reason, and theboys admire her for it. S)1e graduates with a good record.Hagerstown, Me1., is Sallie Solliday's home. For three years she has beena student at this Institution, and for the same length of time a member of theNinety-nine Class. She has made an enviable record in College. Her veryfirst term's work showed that she had made up her mind to be a student andto leave no stone unturned by which she could reach greater distinction. Whatshe started out to do she has done and graduates high in the class. Sheopened a junk shop a year or so ago when studying geometry and beganselling corollaries, things belonging to theorems, to use a brute's definition.Her first customer wanted to buy quite a number, but Miss Solliday decidedto close up shop about that time and told her customer in a deep masculine voice"We don't sell corollaries any longer." She has served as president of the Y. W.C. 1\., and in '98 assisted in winning the "Newell trophy." Howald she is wedon't know, but an honest guess would place it in round numbers to be abouttwenty-two. She is by no means friendless, for her popularity has beel~ provedon manyoccasions.*Draw a line from Augusta, Maine, to Sacramento City, Cal., thence to KeyWest, Fla., and thence to the place of beginning. Somewhere in this triangle abouttwenty-two years ago was born James Henry Straughn II. For some unaccountablereason neither historians nor curiosity seekers have been able to locate thespot, though an exhaustive research of American history has been made. Thesaid James Henry is supposed to be descended from two noted kings of England,James J and Henry VIII, for whom he was named. From the former he inheritedthe Royal Touch and from the latter his polygamous propensities. He has notbeen married as often as the aforesaid Henry VIII, but that is not his fault; ifhe had been accepted every time he popped the question he would have beenas famous a Mormon as old King Solomon; witness all the girls eligible andotherwise in Centreville, Baltimore, Westminster and adjacent towns.* Written by a classmate.56
