The enjoyable custom inaugurated last year, of holding, class smokers has been in equally successful operation during the present winter. On the evening of March 9, the juniors gathered in the Commons where they puffed at fat pipes provided for the occasion, and were entertained by addresses from Professors Taylor and Lingley, a chalk talk by Professor Keyes, and by a variety of musical numbers provided by the college mandolin club, a quartet from the glee club, and by Messrs. Goodrich, Cellar, and Ickes.
The seniors met similarly on March 16, and were addressed by President Nichols and Professor Wicker. Musical numbers were interspersed throughout the evening's entertainment. The quality of democratic good fellowship and cheerful spontaniety which characterizes these class smokers is a large element in their attractiveness. That they are a popular event in the life of the College is shown by the almost unanimous attendance of those eligible to admittance.
