CHARACTER SKETCH.
CHARTER DAY CELEBRATION.
Ho has becomo rather prominent during tho last few
months prominent as a whole. Parts of him have
always boon prominont. For instance, his smilo will
break window lights, tho Sabbath, and put tho fire
out It is a wonderful smile. Probably no one over
saw a similar ono. You can almost hear it.
As for tho person himself, ho is queer. In Pollycon
class bo's got wheels in his head; shows it by con
tinually trying to got the wheels out of other peoples'
heads. He's probably brainy ouough, but thinks ho's
four ounces more brainy thau tho rest of 'cm put to
gether. Ho's oxcruciatingly eccentric; too utterly so
for any uttor use; sometimes. You'll meet him in tho
hall, and in your most dulcet tones say, " Hello th ore,
," and he'll let loose that beautiful, pile-driving
smile at you, shout "Hollo yourself!" and tramp post
you " tramp " is tho word leaviug you a good deal
chagrined at getting nothing worth remembering but
the smile. Ho was reading a pupor in "Junior
Themes" class ono day, and toward tho last got
twisted up over Ids writings; so after smiling n hole
through the paper and remarking " Well I guess I'm
stuck," crammed his essay into his pockot and fell into
his soat
He's going to Kansas. May tho angels and minis
ters of graco go 'long with him and dofend " them
folks down there."
