GEORGIA MILITARY COLLEGE-
Six ions on
The Senior Class went up against
the play of Julius Caesar in a unique
and very interesting
exercise, last Friday.
Ji'i.ics Caesar. The class 1ms been
studying the play for
some weeks, and Friday’s exercise
was intended to test their knowledge
of it, Twenty-four questions, printed
below, were given, the members of the
class answering orally in the presence
of the school. The faculty acted as
judges. Several members of the class
showed they had studied the play to
some purpose. They were perfectly
familiar with the scenes and the lan>
guage, and could -‘spout” Shakespeare
wish really wonderful glibness, The
contest ended with a practical tie be
tween Miss Helen Skinner and Miss
Cassie Simpson, Mr. Reynolds will
have to give each one of these bright
young ladies a prize.
These are the questions :
1. When was this blay published?
2. What Is the source from which Shaks-
pearo drew his materials for tho, play?
8, How old was Caesar at his death?
4, Has the play a hero?
C. On what occasion did Anthony offer
the crown to Caesar?
0. Give date of the assassination.
7. Who struck the llrst blow?
8. In what building did the assassina
tion take place?
9. Give name of the conspirators.
■ in. ltepeat Caesar’s last words.
11. What period of time Is covered by
the play?
12, Where are the scenes laid?
12. Was Brutus afraid of ghosts?
14. How did Brutus die?
15. Who said to whom, “Dwell I but in
the suburbs of your Rood pleasure?”
111. ltepeat the openlnR sentence or Bru
tus’ speech.
17. Give the lirst line of Anthony’s fu
neral oration.
18. What motive did Anthony attribute
to Brutus for taking part In the conspir
acy?
19. Finish "There is a tido in tho alTalrs
of men”->-
20. Name the author or the speech : “In
all my life I found no man but he was true
to me.”
21. Finish “When Love begins to sicken
andWecay”—
22. What kin was Brutus to Cassius?
2.). Name the chief motive that actuated
Cassius in joining the conspiracy?
”4. Was Brutus a patriot?

After the Seniors had finished with
the “mighty Julius”, last Friday the
Freshman and
Freshman Versus Sub-Freshman
class joined in
Sur-Freshman. a spirited spell
ing bout. Pres
ident Reynolds gave out the words, us-
ing Westlake’s 3000 Practice Words
and other members of the faculty act
ed as a board ot reference on disputed
points. For more than one hour the
battle raged fast and furious. Every
inch of ground was hotly contested and
when the smoke of the conflict had
cleared away the ground was strewed
with the fallen braves, each of whom
had gone down fighting to the last.
The upper college classes, with the
fifth and sixth grades, witnessed this
battle of words and as the contest nar
rowed to a few valiant knights on each
side, the interest, grew intense. Man
fully did the brave young sub Fresh
men hold their ground, yielding only
inch by inch, to the repeated onslaughts
of the enemy. Victory wavered long
in the balance, but finally settled upon
the Freshman battle line, but it was
by the narrow margin of two defenders
left unscathed on the field of carnage.
The hall rnng with paeans of victory
from the Freshman hosts and their
partisans when the enemy was finally
and completely vanquished.

For Holidays. Jan, 1st, 1902.
Thus far the school has held together
remarkably well. There has not been
the usual dropping out by the local pu
pils. Patrons are urged with emphatic
insistence to keep their children in
school through this week, and through
Friday, the last day. They should not
listen to the suggestion that it will
make no difference if their children
are not present the last few days. It
does make a difference—to the pupil
and to the school. Keep the children
iu school. They have no other busi
ness than going to school, and it is the
parents business to see that their chil
dren attend strictly and persistently to
their business.

The school has f elt the deepest con
cern for Miss Maud Townsend in her
Miss Townsend severe and pro-
Imtrovimg. tracted illness.
And everybody connected with it re
joices hi the assurance from the physi>
eians in charge that she is on the road
to recovery, Miss Townsend is popu
lar with teachers and pupils. Her
happy disposition and bright personal
ity have made her a favorite in the
school and in the community. All
are happy in the knowledge that every
thing now points to her speedy and
complete recovery.
