The mangers of the Battalion wish
to express their sincerest thanks and
appreciation to the corps for their
interest and support in the late sub
scription contest. 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.

“PUSH, DON’T KNOCK!”
Upon a door I saw a sign:
I cried: “A motto! 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.

I say: “Great motto, you are mine"’
No stronger sermon ever fell
From human lips; no sage could tell
The hothead youth more nearly how
To point away his vessel’s prow;
There are no wiser words in stock,
“Push—don’t knock!”
—Baltimore American.
