O quam grave in sopore,

O quam malum in topore,

Est andire cum dolore

Sacrum tintinnabulum.

Tristis auris quam intrabis,

Triste caput penetrabis,

Tristis is cut festinabis

Pedem et vestigia.

AT a recent chemistry lecture the professor succeeded in freezing water contained in a red-hot crucible, a feat which so charmed a certain Freshman that he was heard to exclaim: "How delightful to have such a man for my companion in the future life!" It will be seen at once that the Freshman atones for his irreverence in regard to the professor by the modest estimate of his own deserts.

THE Chelsea Public thinks the IT H guilty of unpardonable impudence in not leaving the modern Pompeii, cap in hand, with obsequious thanks for the well-meant castigation inflicted upon it by the Public. It particularly resents a recent article in the Advocate which dared to question the Public's critical taste, and is somehow reminded of the story of "Elijah" and the Bears. In the Bible, as translated for Chelsea, the name of the bear-compeller may be that mentioned in the Public, but King James's version (used in all English-speaking countries) gives ELISHA as the prophet's name. However, this is a mere question of accuracy, and hardly concerns the Public.

NOTICE - The members of the Senior Class will favor the Class Committee greatly by returning their checked lists at an early date, and by making final arrangements for sittings within the coming week.
