Possibly the present Senior class will enjoy their Class Day the more from understanding their share in the transformation that ensues a day or two before Class Day, and understand why there are "necessary Class-Day expenses...

Why, indeed, Mr. H., you are une parfaite grandisement. Ain't that so, Mr. H.? (H. says that's not in the lesson.) Ah, yes, Mr. H., that's true, all very true. Well, to come...
