SMITH HILTON ORRICK ........................................•.. Glyndon, Md. "Does she know it." "Paul, Paul, Oh Paul" comes ringing in silvery tones through Senior Hall. "Paul be opening up. Paul, now are we going to read the Germing Paul?" Anyone rooming upon the second floor of Senior lower is entertained daily by some such performance as this. Indeed "Boose" spends the greater part of his time in calling Paul, and his melodious voice may be heard at any hour of the day. "Boose" has a decided tendency to oversleep himself in the morning, an:! is usually late for breakfast. Has very unique ideas of getting acquainted. He first meets the young lady upon the street, then sits with her on the doorstep and finally, when the weather justifies him in doing so, calls upon the said lady in her parlor. Like "Alkte," "Boose" is very fond of the good things of lire and is always on the lookout for some one to "set em up." Used to be very much afraid of women and it is said that in his Sophomore year was put "hers de combat" by an accidental encounter with them. How- ever, he soon got over that and now is very gallant with the ladies. "Boose" is well liked by all on account of his good nature and ready wit • LEVIN THOMAS HENRY IRVING INSLEY . .. .Bivalve, Md. "What's in a name?"-Shaks. Gentle reader, if you survive the tedious and trying ordeal of an introduction to this long-named individual, we can promise you a view of our most unique specimen. For truly, to use the school boy's expression, "He'snt," And his name is not his only mark of distinc- tion; for alas his tongue is fully as long as his name and much more harmful. For we can dispense with that long array of appellations by simply calling him "Levin," but where, Oh where is the power this side of eternity that can stop that tongue. The torment of his classmates, the terror of his friends, the plague of his instructors, it wags and wags from early dawn till setting sun. Levin's great delight is to argue with his teachers, and many lectures in history or philosophy bave been improved (?) and corrected by his comments or criticisms. Is the greatest "bluffer" in the class and has acquired the art through long prac- tice. Indulges in long and fantastic dreams of future greatness. Is as changeable as a wo- man and has been four years deciding whether to go to Harvard University or run his father's crab factory. Has a smile almost as sickly as Buckey's. But levin is a right good fellow, and an honored member of an honored class. 59
