LOOKING BACKWARD. What Is the Earliest Event In Life You Can Remember? "1 can remember back to my fourth year,” said a physician. "I was four during the Philadelphia Centennial of lS7'i, and I remember two Centennial scenes well. One was a great room full of brass baud instruments—horns so big and yellow and shiny that they delighted me. 1 retuenilier, too, a Turkish coffee room. My father took hie into this room. Turks in native dress served the coffee. 1 liked the place at first: then I saw that It wits noisy. The native waiters shouted horribly. I was frightened. I was on the point of tears, but whether 1 cried or not I can’t tell you.” “I can remember back to the time when 1 was three," said a lawyer. "At the age of three tuy family took me to Cape May. 1 saw my father out in the water. He laughed and held out his arms to me, and, all dressed, I ran Into the sea to him.” "All of us." said a psychologist, "can remember back to our fourth year. Some of us can even remember back to the second year. It would make an interesting article, a compilation of the earliest memories of a lot of people. The trouble, as a rule. Is to fix the date of these memories, so as to be sure of our age at the time.”—Pittsburg Press. PUNCTUATION. Originated by Aristophanes and Revived by Charlemagne. Punctuation by means of stops and point', so as to Indicate the meaning of sentences ami assist the render to a proper enunciation. Is ascribed origiually to Aristophanes, a grammarian of Alexandria, Egypt, who lived in the third century B. C. Whatever his system may have been, it was subsequently neglected and forgotten, but was reintroduced by Charlemagne, the various stops and symbols la'ing designed by Warm-fried and Alcuin. The present system of punctuntiou was introduced in the latter part of the fifteenth century by Aldus Maim Hus. n Venetian printer, who was responsible for our full stop, colon, semicolon, comma, marks of Interrogation and exclamation, parenthesis and dash, hyphen, apostrophe and quotation marks. These were subsequently coi>led by other printers until their use became universal. Most ancient languages were Innocent of any system of punctuation. In many early manuscripts the letters are placed at equal distances apart, with no connecting link between, even in the matter of spacing, nu arrangement which must have rendered rending at sight somewhat difficult.—Chicago News. Bad Eggs. Seated In a dark, cool cellar, a light ed candle In one hand, three eggs in the other, the egg camiler talked. “No egg Is unsalable," said he. “You can sell an egg when there’s nothing left of It hut the smell. Who buys It theu'i The kid glove maker. He beats his kids soft in a yolk hath, and the riper that great foaming yellow bath Is the more Joyously the kid glove maker splashes about in it. Here's a half dozen fresh brokens, O. K. hut for the shells. The confectioners ’ll take ’em. This couple is what you mighty call fair—what your grocer would term ‘fresh;’ not ‘new laid’ nor ‘liest fresh'—only ‘fresh.’ Such eggs you could stand In a Spanish omelet, bat ict boiled. We’ll split them and sell the yolks to low class bakers and the whites to pupermakers for sizing."
Easily Pleased. If you wish to make a Baganda per feetly happy, all you need to do Is to say, “Way wally,” which means a sort of supremely earnest "Well done.” The moment this tallsuinnlc expression has left your lips the native to whom It Is addressed will probably full on his knees, and, clasping his two bauds together, will sway them from side to side us If he were playing a concertina, while all the time his face beams with u most benignant and compulsive smile, and he purrs "A -o, a—o, a -o, 1 as much as to say, "My cup of Joy is overflowing.’’ — Winston Churchill In Strand Magazine.
Fruitful Comparison. "That girl Is a peach,” enthusiastically remarked a spectator. "Yes,” saiil another, "and she Is the apple of her father’s eye." "Site and young Blnks would make a fine pair,” suggested a third. "But,” objected another in the group, “a fellow like Blnks would find her something of a lemon In the garden of
love.”
The cynical bystander who had been listening butted in at this point. “I don’t know tlie young lady,” he said dryly, "but she seems to be very fruitful In her resources.’’—Baltimore American.

BROWN EXPECTS HARD GAME
GEORGETOWN IS TO! TED TO BE ONE OF KEMECKY’S STRONG TEAMS.
MEN ARE IN GOOD FORM
The plans for Old Gold Day which promises to be the biggest athletic celebration in the annals of DePauw are fast being completed by the student council. Already the lower classes have had several meetings to effect organization in regard to Saturday’s field events. The Freshman and Sophomore football teams are in daily practice on McKeen Field, and Capt. Alford of the underclass has given out that he expects to have a winning team. On the other Capt. Haines, of the Sophomore class, is whipping his team into an efficient machine and fully expects to win. Considerable speculation as to who will win the basketball game has been made, it being one of the big events. Capt MeNaughton and Capt. Hardin are both anxious for a victory. It will he recalled that the Sophomore won this exciting event last year. The plan for the “scrap" has met with much approval. Last year’? push ball affair fell Hat, and the tieup of this year promises to he of unusually exciting nature. The same sort of an event was tried at Oberlin 1: st year with much success. Both underclasses have made plans for this struggle and have organized
their men in so far as It is possible and conform to the rules, at the

sessions. The Methodists are, however, picked as winners as far as dope will work. Coach Brown confined the program at yesterday’s practice to signal work for both varsity and scrubs. Failure to fall on the oval upon any fumble Is put down In the coach’s law-code as an unpardonable offense and he yesterday announced that unless improvement was shown in the varsity ranks in this particular there would he a half-hour workout along this line as a curtain raiser to the daily practice. There are no cripples among the regulars at present and with only one more scrimmage in prospect before Saturday’s game it Is likely that the Methodists will enter the contest with unbroken ranks while the Georgetown squad has suffered considerably this season from injuries among its men.

DISCOURSE
PROFITABLE
Mrs. Andrew Stephenson addressed the Young Women’s Christian Association yesterday afternoon on "Pure
Womanliness."
The speaker said that true womanliness had two characteristics, purity and courage. Of these virtues the one was necessary to the other. A woman should have the courage of her convictions, the courage to do her best work In college; the courage to have a good homellfe and last, but not least, the courage to attend the meetings of the association regardless of who asked her not to attend, and with these a woman would and should have the purity of soul I necessary to true womanliness.

HOUSE HOLD ASSOCIATION
I*. Formed by Women Students Itooining at Florence Hall.
The Florence Hall girls have form-
ed the Household Association. The : girls at the Hall have long felt the need of some such organization, i Many problems are found which re- j quire the co-operation of all the girls j for their solving and it is the pur-1 pose of the organization to provide j such co operation. Already the Household Association I has entered actively on its duties. It has made rules regarding the use of the piano, the conduct of the girls, and the care of the hall and of the hall grounds. Their ideal is selfgovernment. Tlie officers elected are president, Miss Hauseworth, secretary. Miss Hazel Hurt and treasurer, Miss Lelia Hallin.
GIVES ADVICE
Prof. Longdon Tells “Sophs" How to Conduct Hazing Expedition.
Since the escapade which some of the Sophomores had last Saturday night at the home of Rev. C. F. Reed on East Washington Street, some of the professors have taken occasion to give the underclassmen timely advice. Yesterday morning in his sophomore German class, Prof. Longdon said: “If the students feel that they must haze someone, they should first decide who they are going to haze, then they should decide what they are going to do to the victim after they get. him, and then find out definitely where they must go to get him. After these things have been considered, the hazers should think what the consequences will be. If they would think of all of these things they would probably abandon the project altogether."
