Dr. Donald M. Barstow, ’89, has writ-

Bring me a silver trumpet!
merry blast!
First, to-the hopeful future; next, to the
shining past;
Last, to the glorious present! listen, good
masters, pray;
Please you, the Record measures twenty-
five years to-day!
Sound me a
High sits Fame on her column, wreaths
of bay in her hands.
Look to that sturdy youngster, close to
the top he stands.
Young and alert as ever—picture and joke
and rhyme—
Wish him good speed in climbing ali
that remains to climb!
You who have stood beside him, know
how to toil and coax;
Scouring the town for pictures, search-
ing the world for jokes—
Cared for his baby weakness, petted and
pitied him, say,
Look him all over, and tell us, how do
you like him to-day?
Many a critic has lashed him—critics nev-
er refuse;—
Spite of their lashing and pounding, ever
he tries to amuse,
Giving you rhyming jingle, jest and good-
natured chaff,
Always his boast and motto: ‘“‘The Rec-
ord; it is to laugh.”’
Fill me a cup with the nectar that spark-
les and bubbles and boils,
Drink to the men of the Record; here’s
success to their toils!
Bend once more to your trumpet! sound
me your loudest blast:
Yale, ald Yale, and the Record; present,
future. and past!
The dedication is accompanied by il-
lustrations by Grosvenor Atterbury, ’91.

the Record from ’72 to ’97,” illustrated

A small fire broke cut on Thursday,
March 11, at about 2 p. m. in 587 Pier-
son Hall, which was extinguished with
but little damage, the wood-work on
one side only of the room being badly
burned. Neither occupant was at
home at the time and it is supposed
that the fire started among some pa-
pers in the scrap basket. The flames
were extinguished by some students
who noticed the smoke from the street
and climbed in through the window.

WHAT IS
& ODE
INHALER ?
X-ODE is a product of electricity. It forms on
asbestos while being electrically treated in a
solution. This asbestos is pe up in a glass vial.
When the cork of the vial is removed and the air
comes in contact with the asbestos, it emits from
the inhaler a soothing prec: substance, which
will penetrate any part of the body. When inhaled
through the nose or mouth, it penetrates every
nook and crevice of the mucuous surfaces, kills the
germ that causes the disease, and gives the tissues
a healthy condition, thus effecting a permanent
cure. Itis unlike snuff, drugs or medicine. X-Ode
penetrates parts that it would be impossible for
drugs or medicines to do.
Catarrh, Asthma, Hay Fever, Coughs, Head-
ache, Bronchitis, LaGrippe, etc., yield to its influ-
ence with marvelous rapidity.
This inhaler lasts from one to three years.
Trial size inhaler, x5 cents: large size inhaler,
