Considering  the  very  high  stand 
ards  our  athletics  at  M.  A.  C.  are 
obtaining  it  is  not  unusual 
that  we 
should  want  to  adopt  forms  and  cus 
toms  laid  down  by  the  athletic  de 
partments  in  all  the  leading  colleges 
and  universities  of 
country. 
One  of  these  customs  which  has  be 
come  almost  a-part  of  athletics 
is 
that  of  awarding  college  symbols  to 
varsity  men,  and  another 
that  of 
giving  numerals  to  athletes  on  class 
teams,  including  of  course  the  var-

T he  Y.  M.  C.  A.  has  been  par 
ticularly  favored  during  the  past  few-
weeks  with  outside  speakers.  Last 
Sunday  evening  we 
listened,  with 
much  pleasure  and  benefit,  to  the 
address  on  "  Christian  Heroism  " 
by  R e v.  J.  L.  Cross,  of  Conn.,  and 
the  Sunday  evening  before  200  men 
listened  with  much  profit  to  the  last 
of  a  series  of  practical  talks  to  col 
lege  men  given  by  F r a nk  15.  Slack, 
of  N.  Y.  We  also  appreciate 
the 
opportunity  afforded  us  by  the  Y. 
W.  C.  A.  "to listen'  to  Miss'  Elgie,  a 
from  C h i n a;

she  surely  did  impress  upon  us  the 
fact 
that  we  have  a  responsibility 
across  the  waters  as  well  as  on  this 
side.

Wood,  of  Lansing,  will  address  the 
students,  and  on  the  following  Sun 
day,  March  8th,  M r.  II,  R.  Patten-

Sunday  afternoon  a  telegram  was 
received  at  the  college  announcing 
the  death  of  Miss  Mabel  Hibbs, '11, 
at  her  home  in  Chicago,  Saturday, 
Feb.  22.  Miss  Ilibbs  was  taken  ill 
at  the  college  on  J a n u a ry  1 =;  and 
was  in  the  college  hospital  for  a  few 
days,  but  was  soon  able  to  be  back 
in  her  room.  She  did  not 
regain 
her  usual  health,  however,  and  on

Chicago,  high  school.  She  was  a

A m o ng  the  subjects  taken  up  by 
Prof.  Sawyer  was  telephony,  vet 
in  its  infancy  so  far  as  the  applica

is  concerned.  He 
showed  that  in  case of  the  automatic 
telephone  its  adoption  does  not  de 
pend  so  much  on  its  mechanical  ad 
vantages  as  upon  the  opposition  met 
by  old  established  companies.

the  engineering  student  needs 
is  a 
proper  sense  of  his  relation  to  prac

he  cannot  get  from  text-books,  and 
it  is  a  feeling  that  outside  engineers 
can  help  to  cultivate.

Tell  me  not  in  broken  measures 
Modern  farming  doesn't  pay, 
For  a farm  produces  chickens, 
And  the  hens—do  they  lay. 

Eggs are  high  and  going  higher. 
And  the  price  is soaring  fast 
Every  time  we get  to  market  , 
It  is higher  than  the  last. 

Not  a coop but  it  produces 
Every  day  an  egg  or  two, 

So each  farmer  gains  his  millions 
Even  though  his hens  are  few. 

Every  egg  is  very  precious, 

And  the  hens  are held  in  awe, 

When  a  hen  begins to  cackle 

Then  the  farmer goes " Haw,  haw. 

In  the  broad  and  busy  farmyard 
Struts  a  rooster  now  and  then. 
But  the  shrewd  bewhiskered  farmer 

Only  notices the  hen. 

Trust  no rooster,  howeer  showy. 

Be the  feathers  in  his tail, 
Pay  attention  to  the  biddies, 

And  your  wealth  will  never  fail. 

Lives of  farmers  all  remind  us 

We  may  roll  in  wealth  some  day, 

If  we hustle  to the  market 

With  the  eggs our  pullets  lay.
