Of course, every one could not win, but we wish every one to feel that he is getting value received for his support. The money taken in will not go toward putting out a special company issue only, in fact a small per cent will be used for that; the larger part of the money shall be used to pay for a better and larger Battalion The editorial staff promises to do its best to make the Battalion the best College weekly in the south. Every company, and espec ially every Captain deserves credit for the support given. May the interest continue. Let everyone help, and the Battalion will rise to a pre-eminent po sition among the college weeklies of the south.

And it’s mine!” A wiser thing I never saw— No Median or Persian law Should be more rigidly enforced Than this from verbiage divorced Its logic firm as any roffk— “Push—don’t knoc/k! ” ’Twas simply meant to guide the hand Of those who wished to sit or stand Within the unassuming door This weight of sermonry that bore ’Twas never meant to teach or preach, But just to place in easy reach The ear of him who dealt in stock— “Push—don’t knock!” But what a guide for life was that— Strong, philosophical and pat; How safe a chart for you and me While cruising o’er life’s restless sea; Push, always push, with goal in view, Don’t knock — avoid the hammer crew; This rule will save you many a shock, “Push—don’t knock!” When on that door I saw the sign.
