rimy gloom glides a gray ghost, grinning at the guileless guyer, who fleesfar from the fiend of fearful form. Frightened and frantic, Sam soon sends students tosearch the spot for spectres. But futile are all eftbrts expended in examining each secludedspot, since the spook has secretly skedaddled in the silence of the stilly night. Oh! Promise Me. Oh ! promise me that some day you and IMay take our course in college in some sky,Where we may have a better bill of fareAnd be quite sure molasses wont be there,And many College Pets will deck our hallsAnd there will be great Oaks to shade our walls.Alcoves innumerable, there are to be,Oh ! promise me; oh ! promise me. The rising bell will ring at half-past eight.And if youre tired youre not counted late.And then well have good ice the whole year through,* And it will often be for the girls, too. Instead of ologies elect mankindTo make our study and improve our mind.No life more perfect could there ever be.Oh ! promise me ; oh ! promise me.

The bridal procession in Cairo took my fancy. I spent most of my time in the Buildings for Public Comfort. The Agricultural Building beat everything. There is the most exquisite glass dress in the Libby GlassWorks. Nothing at the Fair can compare to Chair Wheeler, No. 67. I
