M. WOODS. CRITICISM ON THE CHRONICLE OF LAST ISSUE. Did the M .H. R. boast of a Chron- icle last program? Nope. Just epol- °glad Oar one, or a part of One. We don't. pretend to be an Addi- son or a Pope, -but we ,have a Mid idea that nature. failed to endow two or.three of the editors and ye- porteis of The Chronicle with °weigh of that which is essentiall to the carrying on of a successful catopaign and the writing of good, sound edi- torialls. We Ilona say in exact swords, what was lacking, but we leave that for fellow students to pond or over. When the word canipaign was used --that is exactor what was meant. There seems to be a movement on, soot— the we don't know how much ground it has gatnedroto oust other m.enibers of the senior class for the benefit of three who have amlbitions pointing toward - idligarehy. , They Nish to have everything to do and say concerning .Comanencement, tho it is probable they havn't enough influ- eniee to bring all this about. Condoning all this and the editor- ials, we wish to bring up before the view Of the schooli the items which stated, in a way, that some of.Shakles hotare's plays had been suggested, but that there were only two who woad the ablle• to take part on ac- count of laek of ability in the others. Welt, we know ta;eill enough When this was read that it was a slalm„ iatendedi for a knockout ihkalw to till4 the hopes of the .ollonsition, but they I t/old the truth, or nearer than they thot, when they insinuated about saidk of ability to some of the mena bees. We don't exaloilky refer to dram- utile ability, but we, refer to their inr telligence and knowledge. 1, In the float place, no you* lady of 'modern good breeding Would have been the author Of such a thinly din - gained', sneer, let alone get up and, read It before a high iselhoolfi and a few visitors.

Nature in the tropics, left to herself, writes John Burroughs, the naturalist, Is harsh, aggressive, savage; looks as though she wanted to hang you with her dangling ropes or impale you on her thorns or engulf you in the ranks of her gigantic ferns. Her mood is never as placid and sane as in the north. There is a tree itt the Hawaiian woods that sugowats a tree gone mad. It is called the 7hio tree. It lies down, squirms and wrig- gles all over the ground like a wound- ed snake. It gets up and then takes to earth again. Now It wants to be a vine; now It wants to be a tree. It throws soniersaults; it makes itself Into loops and rings; It rolls; it 'reaches; it doubles upon itself. Altogether it is the craziest vegetable growth I ever saw. It was nenr Pali that I saw what I had never seen or heard of before -- a waterfall reversed, going up instead of down. It suggested Stockton's story of negative gravity.
