NOTES AND COMMENTS, V r Objections lmvo boon raised by dif ferent parties against tbo firing of tho cannon during tho artillery prao tlco, though this seems tho most log ical' tlmo to lire them. Last Saturday afternoon when the nloco was flmd with merely an ordinary charge of ammunition, a considerable effect was noticed in tho tho buildings nearby. iJrof. Moro was making a very im portant experiment on tho lcouaclasm of tho pondelum. Ho says from the data ho collected ho will bo ablo to provo that some of tho favorite and most popular theories in science will bo proved to bo false. Prof. Swcezoy was in tho cheese box gazing diligently at an immense Xmaa assortment of beautiful and use ful sunspots. Suddenly ho observed n most romarkablo activity among the spots. They shot about on tho face of the sun in an amazing manner. Prof Sweozey says there Is no such phc monon ti3 tills on record in the entire annuls of astronomy. What is still moro remarkable is that this commo tion among the sunspots was accom panied by a loud report which was distinctly hoard on this planet. The Prof. Is now at work on a mono gram entitled "Somo Notes upon tho Remarkable Disturbance Among the Solar Sun Spots, Saturday, December Elghlh, NMneteen-hundred." No one who Is "on" has the heart to put him next to the real cause of tn suns unseemly behavior but it has been suggested that it would bo better to take the ordinance oif of campus when It is fired Some authorities say that it is against the ordinance to fire the ordinance within the city limits any-Svay. When a boy receives his highly doc orated and red sealed diploma from the High School, every body In tho town Immediately falls fifty per cent In his estimation, lio pities tho pool laborer and is surprised at tho lack of knowledge nbout the town In gen eral. His airs and strutting about be come so unbearable that the day is welcomed with great Joy when ho Is scon, with bag and baggage, going to meet tho train which carries him to college. For a tlmo there is peaco at homo. Tho father need no longer fear of being criticised at the table. The jlster feels secure that no one will real .y know her laincntablo lack of of unowledgo on questions of tho day. But alas the Christmas holidays have ap proached and people at tho train will be both surprised and pained to sec i young fellow in a brand now cadet mlform with cap jauntily placed over jne car, stop off. Surrounded by a jroup of his former boy friends, he .narches up the street his chest ox- landed, head thrown bock, gazing up at the (to him) miserable business blocks and then down at his friends. tie goes home and there sits about the house with such an air that tho father joining in from (ho office feels embar rassed In speaking to him. However, he soon leaves, and there rema'ns behind a great Interest In Jootball, athlecics, and drill among the boyu. Although wo pity tho home people, Just see what his fellow students are compelled to suffer. Ills ability to be 3inart, his powers of going In where he Is not wanted, and .lis great estimation 01 himself in general Is something which can only be endured after years of experience. - The University School Of Music pposite the Gampu 5 Students contemplating- the study of Music, and those who have friends desirous of in formation concerning the advantages offered, are cordially invited to visit the School and and obtain an Illustrated Catalogue.
