DR. J C. MITCHIEsays.: "Pond's Extract of Hama-melis Virginica is the only reliable article I have found. "
DR. H. K. . WEILER says: " The difference betweenPond's Extract and so-called Witch Hazel is the dif-ference between a cent and a dollar."

HE period ofthe Annualsseems to havecome upon uswith unusualsuddennessthis year, aswe pause to
look back upon the last eight months ofgrind and relaxation. The year at Technol-ogy has been an uneventful one. With butfew changes in the corps of Instruction thework of the Institute has gone on quietly,with steady broadening and strengtheningin the Thesis work of the graduating students.
In Athletics, we have shown ourselves strongupon the running track, and weak, as usual,upon the football field. The class teams havebeen far above the average, and at Worcesteron Saturday, we hope to wind up the seasonwith some credit.
Socially, the winter has been marked bytwo uncommon successes, the Minstrel Showand the Walker Club Plays, while our archi-tectural and military victories are cause forcongratulation. Several new organizationshave been founded which are solvent andpromise well for the future. Perhaps themost encouraging outlook, however, is in thedirection of'the Technology Club, and withthis as a rallying point, and the energy ofNinety-eight to conduct the various Junioraffairs, we look forward to an era of unprece-dented success for next season.
To the members of Ninety-six it is ourpainful duty to bid God-speed. The Class hasbeen since its entrance a model in ability, inenthusiasm, in public spirit. The loss of itsleadership will be deeply felt in all the walksof Institute life. May these newest Alumnicarry with them the deepest love for AlmaMater, and give a new impetus to the loyaltyto Technology which grows daily greateramong her graduates.
As to ourselves, we have but little to say.The present Board has done its best to makethe paper readable, literary, as far as maybe in a technical college, and timely and ac-curate in its news items,-such, crowned withhowever small measure of fruition, havebeen our efforts; and with another year'sexperience we hope for a larger modicum ofsuccess. To all who have helped us in anyway during the year we extend our thanks.And we wish to all Technology men a pleas-urable vacation.
F the scheme for a new building, to be builton the present site of the tennis courts, re-
ceives the sanction of the corporation, theInstitute will soon mark by visible means an-

other great stride in its growth and usefulness.The new building, as planned, will be usedby three courses, Architecture, Chemistry andBiology, each of which has outgrown its pres-ent limits. The building will be one hundredand fifty feet long, and open through into thepresent architectural building. One of itsfeatures will be a large museum extendingthrough two stories. The Freshman chemi-cal lecture room will also be placed in thenew structure. The rest of the building willbe devoted to laboratories and recitationrooms.
The Institute has never made it a policy tobuild a building and then expect to grow tofill it, but every new addition has been the re-sult of an imperative demand for more room,and, as such, each is a sure and most grati-fying evidence of rapid yet solid and healthygrowth.
< AHE Class of '99 is to be heartily congrat-ulated on the drill of last Friday night.
In every way the affair was a brilliant success,and Technology men have a right to feel asproud of the management of; the competitionas of the result. Our complete victory wasunexpected, and therefore doubly pleasant.Especially is it gratifying to know that ourbattalion won on all around excellence as theBrown companies excelled in the set-up.
5HE formation of a Bicycle Club at theInstitute has supplied a heretofore exist-
ing want. It has long been evident that sucha club was needed, owing to the rapid increasein the number of wheels, and the correspond-ing demand for facilities for keeping them safeduring recitation hours. We heartily favor aclub which has a reasonable and practicalobject in view, and therefore hope to see thislatest organization become a prosperous andsuccessful one.
HE' tests which have recently been madeof the Chestnut Hill Pumping Station and
one of the power houses of the West End StreetRailway, by our fourth year students, callattention to the advantage which the Institutederives from its situation in the midst of a greatmanufacturing district. Permission is readilyobtained to test power plants of various sorts inthe neighborhood, for their owners are glad tohave the efficiency of their apparatus de-termined with the care which is always usedin conducting these tests, and the students aregreatly benefited by meeting with the problemswhich occur in actual practice. Every yearmore and more outside testing is done as thesiswork, and the success which has resulted fromthe introduction of these tests, during thepresent term as a part of the regular Engineer-ing Laboratory work, is likely to insure theircontinuance and increase in connection withthis work.
HE current school year being so near anend, a great number of the class of '97 are
beginning to realize that ere long they mustform a decision as to what particular option intheir course they will take up for their lastyear's work at Technology. While we do notbelieve it is wise to be hasty in this decision, asuggestion is in point to those as yet undecided,in order that all their energies of observationmay be put into play during the comingsummer, and, if possible, that each man shallendeavor to obtain some practical experienceupon which to base his more theoretical workof next year. We believe that much is to begained by the concentration of efforts alongsome one line, providing the broadness of viewis not endangered. The options are notcalculated to turn out specialists; it is believedrather that a man becomes the better specialistby first having pursued a regular course ofstudy. The option gives the student valuabletraining in some one branch of his course
I which his inclination or foresight urges him to

take up. Having taken a particular optiondoes not by any means unfit him for taking uphis business in one of the others. The generaltraining of his mind to think along scientificlines should enable him to succeed equallywell in any one.
Take Course I. for instance. Here we havethe Hydraulic option, which is the broadestof the three. Next the Railroad option, whichexcludes the Hydraulics of the first and sub-stitutes Railroad Design, Construction, andManagement, yet retains the fundamentalTheory of Structures and Structural Design.The Geodetic option takes up in addition tothe fundamental studies more Physical Labo-ratory work, more work in Geodesy, andmore extended mathematics in the Theory ofError of Observations, etc. The choice inCourse I. is, as will be found in most of theothers, an open one. We feel that a down-right mistake cannot be made in any event,and the question rests with the individual as towhat work he prefers, or what line of workhe expects to take up on graduation. Theprofessors in charge of the various courseswill, no doubt, be glad to talk with the stu-dents on this matter.
HE American Dialect Society at Colum-bia College has undertaken the work of
collecting information about College Slang,as found in the several colleges and univer-sities of this country. To accomplish thispurpose, they have sent requests to the EnglishDepartments of all the colleges and universi-ties, asking them to bring the matter to theattention of their students. The work of mak-ing a collection of the slang used here, atTechnology, has been placed in the hands ofMr. George H. McCarthy, '97. We lookforward to the accomplishment of this workwith interest, and-hope that the students willmaterially aid Mr. McCarthy in it, by sendinghim any forms of slang that they know to bein use at the Institute.
The Drill.
./;?d ~HE Mechanics Hallon Friday evening,May I5th, presenteda scene difficult todescribe. Difficult,because of its varied
lights and shades, bright buttons and brighterfaces, gold lace and filigree, pretty gowns andblazing uniforms, and above all the heavy,unsteady intonation, the rise and fall of yellsfrom Tech, Harvard, Brown and Amherst.
Science tells of the existence of a keynoteto every animate and inanimate object, a con-stant drumming on which will cause eventhe heaviest bridge to fall. The keynote tothe bottom of Brown's hopes last night musthave been contained somewhere in-

because it fell entirely out before the close ofthe evening.
Considering the size of the hall the battalioncompetition was a great success, although theindividual drill, open to men from Harvard,Brown, Amherst, and Technology, was thefeature of the evening, and created great ex-citement. The squad as it first appeared con-tained six Harvard men, eleven Amherst men,eight Brown, and fifteen Tech. men. Thesewere put through the manual and the bayonetexercise by the adjutants of the four battalionsAll of the men showed up well in the manualof arms, but when they came to the intricateexecutions of the bayonet exercise they becameconfused, and were caught by one or two littletricks which completely tied up about half ofthe men for a minute. When the thinning outcame there were left Smith, Kramer, andMontgomery, of Amherst; Turner, Corse, andCambell, of Technology; Tingley, of Brown;Fullerton and Francis, of Harvard. All thesemen had had much experience, and, as was
I
'Irm-I CT'ZOH 307
0THE TECH
expected, it took a great many movements toweed them out.
The men left for the final trial were Corse,Kramer, Smith and Fullerton. Corse wasthe favorite, and was heartily cheered bothby his fellow cadets and the audience.
The men were given all of the catch com-mands in tactics, but the decision of the judgeshad finally to be made on the respective meritsof the men, as the trick commands had abso-lutely no effect. When the gold medal, thefirst place, was awarded to Corse, the audiencewent wild. The silver medal went to A.Maximillian Kramer, '96, of Amherst Agri-cultural College.
The winner of the gold medal, W. MalcomCorse of Medford, has been a prominent dril-ier in the Massachusetts school regiment forthe last four years. He won the senior indi-vidual competition and the bayonet competi-tion in the Medford High School competitionlast year, and also won prizes in the Maldencompetition a few years ago. His setting upwas his best point, and counted for a greatdeal in the decision.
The battalion drill between Brown andTechnology brought out the intense rivalrywhich has always existed between our schooland the Rhode Island university. We surelyhave every reason to be proud of Nine-nine,as, after the decision had been given, thejudges - remarked that Brown's only point ofvantage was in the set-up of the men, and astheir battalion was the Univ ity and not aa Freshman one, this point is easily accountedfor by the greater age of the men.
After the prizes were awarded by GovernorWolcott, the contestants and their friends en-joyed an hour's dancing. The Brown bat-talion went to Providence on a special train.
Our competitors who took part in the indi-vidual drill were:
T. L. Kimball, Co. D; L. Arnold, Co. D; W. M. Corse,Co. A; M. C. Mott-Smith, Co. D; H. M. Keyes, sergt.major; W. E. West, Co. B; A. J. Cambell, Co. B; L. A.Turner, Co. B; H. Smithwick, Co. B; J. A. Stetson, Co.A; L. C. Soule, Co. D; H. E. Lawrence, Co. D.
The roster of the Brown battalion is as fol-lows:
Field staff.-Maj., H. S. Mabie; Adjt., J. S. Cook;Sergt. Maj., J. W. Upton.
Co. A.-Capt., F. W. Murphy; Ist Lieut., H. G. Wil-cox; 2d Lieut., J. T. Schiffer.

Co. D.-Capt., T. E. Hopkins; Ist Lieut., G. E. Cong-don; 2d Lieut., G. H. Tracy.
The roster of the M. I. T. battalion is asfollows:

Co. D.-Capt., B. Hannan; Ist Lieut., J. H. Richard-son; 2d Lieut., E. E. Pierce.
The hall was divided into sections whichwere assigned to the different colleges andtheir enthusiastic backers; and college colors,in banners, streamers and ribbons, gave thehall the appearance so well known at BerkeleyOval and Hampden Park. At one end werethe two sections given to Wellesley andLasell, and one grizzled old war dog washeard to say that it was a question in his mindif the boys showed their set-ups to better advan-tage, put more snap in their work, and lookedmore of the soldier throughout at that endor at the other, where on an elevated stag-ing sat the honor guests of the evening.Among these were acting-governQr Wolcott,his staff, General Francis Walker, sometwelve or fifteen U. S. Army officers; and alarge number of Boston's leading people.
The programme opened with a regimentaldress parade by the Tech. and Amherst battal-ions, which was commanded by Maj. T. P.Robinson of Technology. This was followedby the parade of the Brown battalion underthe supervision of Maj. H. S. Mabie.

The arch in the latter design issomewhat larger than that chosen by Mr.Driscoll, but, from the description given, thetwo structures would not be far different.The crucial test of a scheme put forth in athesis is, " Is it practicable?" Mr. Driscoll'seffort stands this test and deservedly commendshim to professional recognition.
My Desire.I would build me a cot by the side of a stream,
There to dwell in contentment and peace,Where a man like myself could in solitude dream
And from debts and my cares find release.
I would build me a window where ivy might climbAnd the apple-blooms whisper to me;
'Mid the roses and pinks and the sweet-smelling thymeCould the roam of my fancies be free.
I would ask a dear sweetheart to live there with me,And our joy would be one long dream day;
Secure from all things we forever would beIn our cot by that stream far away.

THE- TErCH
THE affair of last Friday with its combination of thegay panoply of war and the more soothing exterior ofmild-eyed peace, rejoiced the Lounger's jaded heart.From the early morning, when the calm corridors ofRogers were profaned by rattling muskets and bybristling bayonets, all was excitement, and quiet Bostonseemed turned for the time being into a [Freshman]Military Camp. The battalion, as it moved down Boyl-ston Street at five o'clock behind its gallant ColonelCommandant, was an impressive and edifying specta-cle. In no wise could these serried ranks be mistakenfor those of the Boston school boys, who evolutedupon the same day, especially since the latter weredistinguished by resplendent ducks. Finally, in theevening, Mechanics Hall was the scene of a mostbrilliant gathering, and tender memories of the GrandOpera and the Horse Show struggled for mastery withinthe Lounger's breast. He had the good fortune to sitin the east-southeast-by-south portion of the Hall,whence he could command an excellent view of therival flower gardens from our sister educational Insti-tutions, Wellesley and Lasell. Said floral display wasexceedingly pleasant to look upon, and the Loungerregretted deeply that the second delegation was forcedto leave somewhat early, on account of the necessityof being within doors as usual at nine o'clock. Themembers of our own Sophomore Class were present insome numbers and added to the eclat of the occasion,and at the same time demonstrated their superior ageand dignity by a more or less continuous explosion oftorpedoes. Altogether the quality of the affair wasexcellent, and as for the quantity no one could possi-bly complain. Indeed, when, after fifteen or twentyhours of marchings and firings, the last two companiesappeared, their advent was greeted with something likea sigh; and only the faithful held out until the awardof prizes. Those who did, however, were well repaidby the news of our double victory, and by the littledance which followed the more martial events of the
day. The Lounger himself enjoyed one blissful turnwhich forms a bright spot in the dim caves of memory.
It is pleasant to note the development of a newchannel for the energy and scientific spirit of CourseIX. The Magnates of Columbia College have under-taken the preparation of a dictionary of College Slang,for the use of Professors who wish to be up to date inlecturing to their classes. The project is a promisingone, and meets with the Lounger's hearty approval.Indeed he would have offered his own services in thecollection and explanation of the various idioms cur-rent among us, had not a more suitable agent beenprocured. The English Department, being itself en-gaged in the collection of short stories and humeroussketches from various sources, has deputed this newenterprise to a distinguished member of the JuniorClass not unconnected with an official position in theYacht Club. His rosy cheeks and modest, but genial,manner are well known to all, and it is to be hopedthat every man whom he approaches will "slang" himto his heart's desire.
The Lounger has learned definitely that his fears ofbeing torn harshly from the Institute and cast out uponan unfeeling world with no protection but a bit ofparchment, are unfounded. For another year the con-siderate faculty have decided to keep him at their side,to aid the lowly and to reprove the proud. He doesnot feel that the prospect is altogether an unpleasantone.- A connection of some years duration hasbrought with it a great fondness for Technology, andeach season is enlivened by new hopes. Thus there isalways the possibility that the members of a footballteam may train faithfully and achieve victories; thata "Technique" Board may be elected without wirepulling; that a dramatic organization may give twoperformances without running into debt; that a classmay arrive at the Institute which shall not quarrelwith Descrip. or go to sleep in Physics. The Loungerlooks forward to next year therefore with chastened, yethopeful, expectancy. He thinks with especial favor ofthe new Technology Club, where he intends to have asnug corner fitted up in which to smoke and chat andstudy human nature. Here he anticipates meeting hisfriends of Ninety-six when they return as opulent andsuccessful "old grads" to revisit the scenes of theiryouthful frolics. And here he will greet once morethe lower classmen after what he trusts may prove amerry and invigorating vacation.
