but also up and up and up. " If ever there was a time, it is this, when all who have the interests of the country at heart should stand firmly together and keep moving." So said our Chancellor ; see to it. We should like to congratulate the Headmaster on his building scheme and the School on its Hockey side. We hear that the scheme is to be put into operation at once, and hope that it will soon be completed. And so to details :J. C. CLOSE (King's). Has palatial rooms several miles out of Cambridge. He makes wheels go round in the Engineering Laboratories, and has bought 100 pianos, which he plays in rotation. J. N. EMERY (St. John's) has succumbed to work, which seems to consist largely of collecting fossils from Trinity Great Court. Has acquired his Varsity colours for shooting, and, by being on two committees of the Union, procures large quantities of food at the public charge. N. A. HUDDLESTON (Trinity) has an extensive range of hats,• of every shape and colour. He goes for 23-mile walks and reads History, or so he says. Otherwise, he is completely respectable. L. A. LITTLE (Sidney Sussex) is more of a doctor than ever. He has acquired, under highly suspicious circumstances, half a skeleton, which answers to the name of Clarence, and eats his chocolate biscuits. He claims that he plays golf, but has not been seen doing so. R. W. MOORE (Sidney Sussex) won an oar in the Lents. It certainly won't get up his stairs. He is becoming a typical rowing man, but contrives to cut up fish and lizards in his lighter moments. He provides excellent tea on demand. V. W. G. MUSGROVE (St. Catherine's) is, undoubtedly, the Invisible Man, and has, somewhat naturally, not been seen this term. H. E. V. SUMMERS (Queen's) is a supremely elusive bird, but is sometimes seen at the Union. He has played Hockey for Queen's, and does Botany. The precise whereabouts of his lodgings are unknown, but a clue is at present being followed. N. W. D. YARDLEY (St. John's) has added a Wanderers' Hockey Colour to his Half-Blue. He played several times for the Varsity. Is studying Law in quite a serious manner ; we suspect with some ulterior motive. And so, Sir, wishing the School every success, we beg to remain, Yours sincerely, THE CAMBRIDGE OLD PETERITES.
