Our Celebration.
In marked contrast with last
years “scrap” with the powers that
he in Athens, was the boil-fire last,
Wednesday night. The authorities
were while about the matter, and
almost no difficulty was experienced
in piling up a good lot of boxes
near Phi-Kappa Hall.
From some mysterious source, a j
barrel of oil came forth, and with
the addition of this, the fire was a
success. After a few ’Varsityyells,
the fellows dispersed. Enthusiasm
was certainly lacking, for the rea-!
son that in the mind of each of us,
there lurked a suspicion that there
might not, after all, be enough
vietory to justify the celebration.
In fact, a certain pessimistic Senior
said as much, and darkly hinted
that the pile should not, therefore,
be touched off. He was promptly
answered that the gang were out
for sport and sport they would
have. He was further assured that
if necessary, he would be slung on
lop himself, as we were “burning
all sorts of boxes.” Whereupon he
subsided, and the good work went
on. These little things (wo mean
such as the boil-fire, of course, not
the Senior), are useful, as they bring
out the men and get them to going
and yelling together. More men,
should have come out. It’s good to
yell. Good practice for future
emergencies when we’ll need it, and
anyhow it's good to impress the
Freshmen with the fact that we’re
all here together with the same
aims and affiliations, and that the
more we stick together and work
together, the better it is for us all.
