Miss Maud R. Keller related in a very entertaining manner some of her experiences the W o m e n 's while in charge of Department of the College, An original poem by C. B. Smith with witty introductory remarks was very much appreciated. Pleasant recol lections of M. A. C. in the early days were contributed by Prof. W. W. Tracy and Miss Zoe Benton en abled the older alumni to view with much pleasure certain recent feat ures of college life from the stand point of the woman student. As a conclusion Psalm N o. 151 fitting was to read. This, though said have been written by David, was only secured and now made public by W. F. W r i g h t. recently Refreshments were from a high official then served and college songs sung. An ad vance notice of a F a r m e r s' Bulletin apparently in the department of agriculture caused considerable amusement. T he later discovery that it bore the initials of J a m es H. Tibbits of the department of state suggested to some the reason for the peculiar views of agriculture expressed. T he association showed much interest in a letter from P r e s.

T he T h i rd Annual German of the Themian Society was given the A r m o ry Saturday evening, in March 16th. It was a complete success in every detail and proved to be one of the prettiest parties ever given at M. A. C. Green, in honor of St. Patrick's Day, was combined with white, in the decorations. In one corner was a little thatched cottage, dimly light ed by the red glow of a f re over which a kettle h u n g. A novel cozy corner w as that of the Irish fisherman which contained his boat, oars, nets and poles. T he grand march was led by the president, R u th Delzell, with M r. Chambe, and the vice president, Mary P r a tt with M r. E. A. Willson. T wo interesting features of it were the passing of the programs by little Miss Marguerite K i ng and Master Billy Blaisdell, and the formation of the Themian T. T he green tinted programs were the shape of in shamrock leaves with edges and society monogram in gold. T he dancers were tempted to re themselves with fresh lemonade from a spring under an evergreen tree, which was surrounded by mossy stones and ferns. One of the prettiest figures was the winding of the Maypoles with green and white T he favors for this dance were Themian pennants which the gentlemen wore for the remainder of the evening. ribbons. T he society was fortunate in se curing Dr. and M r s. Blaisdell and Mr. and M r s.

T he students showed their enthusi asm by being present, and entering heartily into the spirit of the meet ing as did the faculty and subfaculty members as well. Many awakened that we have college to the fact spirit, and not a minimum amount of it either. T he singing led by the band and directed by M r. Patten was well done, considering that it was t he first meeting. Everyone present, whether he possessed much of a voice or not, joined in, but we hope to do still better at the next meeting. T he college songs are in booklet form and there is no danger of running short. T he speeches by Dr. Blais dell, Pres. Snyder, C. D. Smith, Sec'y Brown and Dr. W a t e r m a n, were full oi life, short and to the point, and were seemingly enjoyed by all. We hope to have a meeting every week within the next term and may everyone make it a point to be present at all meetings. M. A. C. FORESTERS. last time T he meeting of the M. A. C. for Foresters was called to order the term Tuesday this evening, March 12. T he program consisted of a paper presented by M r. H a r ry S. Reed, which treated the subject, "Preservation of Rail road Ties." timber Mr. Reed set forth the various methods n ow employed in treating ties and for preservation against decay, the merits of each and their value to timber consumers. All the processes mentioned in the paper are in their infancy, and are yet in the experimental stage, with the exception of creosoting which is the oldest process known. Mr. Reed's discussion was one of the most interesting and instructive brought before this year and was greatly appreciated by all who heard him. the club RAILROAD RATES. No holiday rates are granted by therailroads this season, but students should bear in mind that all "three cent" roads give a rate of t wo cents one way where a party of ten can be secured. We understand that several are planning on such parties Detroit, Grand Rapids, etc., and all who go to these points should make it a point to "get into the s w i m ."
