LOCALS AND PERSONALS. 



The students spending their vaca- 

 tions at the Beach are enjoying them- 

 selves in divers and sundry ways, 

 swimming in the bay, bathing in the 

 ocean surf, boating, hunting and 

 making merry at delightful little 

 socials, now and then. 



One of the most beautiful noon- 

 light evenings of the season was 

 spent at Miss Lulo Thorpe's home, 

 playing games and dancing on the 

 green lawn in the moonlight. At 

 Mrs. Rowe's "cottage by the sea," 

 Misses Mabel and Evangeline doing 

 the honors, an evening was passed 

 pleasantly, (odd as it may seem), in 

 telling ghost stories ! 



The boys not to be out done in 

 the matter of entertaining, treated 

 the girls to an ice cream social in 

 Stough Hall, — well we are waiting 

 for another. 



Still another pleasant evening was 

 later enjoyed at Miss Eulalie Woods's 

 pulling taffy and having a good time 

 generally. 



Although not many persons are 

 supposed to enjoy a Row(e) in the 

 surf, Sam seems to. 



There are twelve good sized stud- 

 ents, not counting the small fry 

 (Frey), spending their summer vaca- 

 tion at the Beach. 



Some one wants to know how four 

 people can ride home from a party 

 in a one seated carriage — how did 

 you manage it Lai? 



Better begin to think of dusting 

 off your old text books, vacation is 

 half gone. 



We saw Mr. Frey in a stew the 

 other evening because somebody's 

 papa thought somebody was too 

 young to go with him to a party. 



Jimmy has a little kid, 



Its fleas are black as jet, 



And every where that Jimmy goes 



The fleas go too you bet // 



Miss Helen Gibbons of Chula Vista 

 is visiting Miss Maiy Cogswell. 



Miss Mabel Toles, the youngest 

 daughter of Jerry Toles, visited at 

 the Beach last week. 



Miss Pearl Flagg visited at Mrs. 

 Fairfields. 



Miss May Crippen. of San Diego, 

 has been keeping Pearl irom feeling 

 lonesome. 



On dit that Mrs. Judge Kinney 

 intends to send her young grand 

 daughter to college. Welcome! 



John Ironsides was at the college 

 to bid us good by, as he thinks of 

 going to San Francisco. By-by, 

 Trie, you' 11 be sorry you left us some- 

 time. 



Miss Lulo Thorpe expects a vis- 

 itor, a Miss Grace Collier, of San 

 Bernardino, soon. 



We are glad to hear that our old 

 friends, Anne Harlow and Mabel 

 Phelps, are coming back. 



The Towel Brigade has become so 

 attached to its summer resort at the 

 Bay-beach that Prof. Davidson has 

 ordered a wharf and bath-house to be 

 built there for the use of the college 

 boys. 



George Alkire, a former student, 

 was lately down from his present 

 home, at Pomona, Cal. George's 

 health is not so good out of school in 

 Pomona, as it used to be in school at 

 Pacific Beach. 



Ralph Williams is spending vaca- 

 tion at his old home on the Father 

 of Waters, in the fair region 

 about Memphis and Nashville. It 

 was only because old friends and 

 scenes could not come here that he 

 ventured to the hot low lands of the 

 great valley. Mr. Williams had 

 spent two years at the College of 

 Letters when he had found it impos- 

 sible to live in any kind of health 

 elsewhere. 



Miss Jacqueline Oliver, our song- 

 stress, is at her Punta Banda home, 

 but says she is lonesome. 



Miss Nettie Pauly is spending her 

 vacation with her uncle in Los An- 

 geles. Miss Pauly' s. quiet elegant 

 manners will win her friends where 

 ever she is,
