HOME.

home of President Emeritus .Tames K.
Patterson. Off tho main highways of
campus life, its solitude Is seldom
broken by tho boistcrousncsa of students, and only subdued nolse3, mellowed by distance, break Its peaceful
seclusion. Shaded by thinned maples,
overrun by dying Ivy, Its air of genteel decay casts a mild spell over tho
casual visitor and reminds him of an
older, leas hurried time, less practical, perhaps, but sweeter In Its gentle thoughtfulncss.
The shuttered windows, tho
stylo of Its architecture, tho
unkempt placidity of tho premises, tho
extraordinary solemlnlty which broods
over it, Join in weaving an intangible
charm that moves the beholder to a
feeling of quaint peacefulness and con
tent.
A spirit of gentle meditation, so
uttely foreign to the rush and tense
glamour of the city streets, seems to
take refuge in this still backwater 'of
the campus, to draw itself aside from
the world of today, to ponder on tho
simple, sane things of life with the
restful certainty of content. A serenity, untroubled by vivid trivialities, a
tranquility of age and wisdom, is
breathed about it and enfolds it lovingly. Like the cloister of a declining
monastery, it seems a fit place for the
residence of the fine old gentleman
and scholar who lives here with his
books and his memories.
We do not plead that you, the stu
dent of today, visit its moldering
walks and grounds in search of this
moody spirit; it would be almost sacrilege to break Its venerable quiet
with the bustle of youth, and profane
Its mellow silence with noise and
ribaldry.
But we do ask a kind
thought, a moment of sympathetic re
laxation, as you pa3s by, a breath of
a more serene atmosphere than the
hectic vapours of this more dynamic
age. It cannot harm you and it will
certainly help and to the kindly.
and
re
cluse, its master, it will bring much
pleasure to know that his work is
appreciated and his influence still felt
among those, unknown to him, for
whom he so long labored in building

It has come to the notice of the
Kernel staff that owing to the fact
that this year representatives were
not ch03en for each separate college,
certain of these colleges have formdd

represented on the Kernel. The staff

sentatives were done away with in a
most careful selection of staff members, in which it was found impossible
to find from each department a reporter capable in journalistic ability
and training to maintain the high
standards which the University paper
la striving to establish and uphold.
In order to cover the news of every
college with the mo3t possible efficiency, therefore, Miss Mary Archer
Bell was given entire charge of all
the Departmental Clubs on the campus
and each of these clubs was requested
to appoint a definite representative
who was to report the activities of
the club to Miss Bell. They were not
to be members of the Kernel staff, but
merely to keep Miss Bell Informed on
what was happening In their organization.
