THE HESPERIAN. We know a good joke on Anderson, but as he took us up to Odell's for supper and promised to do so some more in case nothing was 3aid about it, we refer you directly to him. Serenading seems to be in vogue though rather out of sea son. The other morning a certain junior who walked about the halls with a sleepy look on his face and a voice like a base drum, explained that he had been out serenading the previous night until two o'clock. Our readers will notice in another place an announcement of a gift concert in Temple Hall, Saturday afternoon, December 31. This is for the benefit of the poor, and will be really a meritorious performance. We advise all studcuts to invest an odd dollar or so in this project. You can get tickets of any of the boys who remain in town. We stated in our last issue that school would reopen Junu uary 3d, 1888. Chancellor Manatt announced at the lust chapel exercises of the term that January 5th is the date for the reopening of school, This means an extension of two days for which we are extremely grateful. This will be the longest holiday vacation that has been given the students in our remembrance. Our faculty have shown in this instance ,' as in others that they are fully awake to the necessities of the day, and that they arc not related to the old fogies who be lieved that the student should be given as few holiday .and as short vacations as possible. We would like to know: How many of the beginning German class are conditioned? What Green, Carpenter & Co. will do vacation? If there will be any new co-eds in school next term? Why Brown lost all interest in French? What has become of all the money we had last September? Why the seniors like "Pol. Econ.?" How many of-the second preps got 60 in algebra? If anything will happen next term to break the monotony of wearing out books? How many of the classical seniors will improve on "Spen cer's First Principals?" How many full stews would be enough to induce Gerwig to shave? If any of the "Pol. Econ." class died of consumption? Why Stephens smiles for the ladies in German class? How Anderson got such a high mark in French? If Codding feels well? There are several other things we would like to know, but we can't know everything. A hundred times since the appearance of our last issue have we realized the evil results arising from inpromptness. Because that unhappy issue was somewhat tardy in appear ing, we have been kicked, cursed, knocked down stairs and submitted to various other marks of affection at the hands of our patrons. But that which most impresses us with a sense of our sin is, that while the aforesaid unfortunate issue was at press, the first preps, unaware of the sage advice that was to be given them on the subject of organization, met in Tutor Hodgman's room and organized as the "class of '93." The following members were selected to bear the first honors be stowed by the class: president, Miss Hardin; vice-president, Mr. Perrin; secretary, Paul Pizey; historian, D. N. Lehmer. They decided that a treasurer is a superfluous article, as ev eryone in the class wanted the office, and they were unable to select one capable of keeping accounts. A few committees were appointed by way of form. The officers elect have offered them the opportunity of a life time to show their greatness and love for humanity by planning and executing a scheme to kill the class organization in its infancy.
