The duties of a student body secretary do not differ to any extent from the duties of the secretary of any society or organization. Folcan tejl you here the lowing is as nearly as duties of a secretary : The secretary is the recording officer of the assembly and the custodian of its records, except such as are specifically assigned to others, as the treasurers books. In addition to keeping the records of the society and the minutes of the meeting, it is the duty of the secretary to keep a resister, or roll of its members and to call the roll when required ; to notify officers, committees and delegates of their appointment, and to When theyre out of X order youre liable to have a nervous or phy-sicibreak down. aj -- Dr. Miles Nervine soothes irritated nerves and! gives nature a chance to restore them to their normal functions.

In the absence of the chairman (if there is no present) it is his duty to call the meeting to order and to preside until the election of a chairman pro tern., which should take place immediately. When a committee is appointed, the secretary should hand the names of the committee, and all papers referred to it, to the chairman of the committee, or some other of its members. He should endorse on the reports of committees the date of their reception, and what further action was taken upon them, and preserve them among the records, for which he is responsible.

An Indian legend of how the Water or Pond Lily become known and named, appeared in your paper a few weeks ago. I will reprint it here for you: The Indians believed that the stars were the homes of those who had walked across the Starry Bridgei of Souls, and one night they aw a star leave the sky and come half way toward the earth. That night a young brave dreamed that the star came and told him to a A-- his wise men what shape she might take mat she could dwell with the red people, whom he lovd, forever. The wise men said for her to chgooe for herself. So at first she came to live in the heart of a white rose on the mountain side, but she wai very lonely, so she next took up her dwelling in s prairie flower, but great herds of buffalo went thundering by and she was frightened. Bo she again set forth to find a resting place, and as she floated over a great, blue lake, she saw her shadow in the water, and sank down to rest on its cool bosom. The next morning the lake was covered with great, white, .shining flowers, with golden hearts. The Indians said the White Star had called her sisters to live among them. They called them Wahbegwannee, the White Star Flowers. The following is an interesting little history of the Forget-me-no- t: It is related that a young couple, on the eve of their marriage, were walking along the banks of a river and saw a cluster of Forget-me-nfloating on the stream. The bride-to-b- e admired the beauty of the flower and lamented its destiny. The lover plunged into the water to rescue it but having caught it, found himself sinking. He made a final effort and threw it at the feet of his betrothed, ex! claiming as' he did so, "forget-me-nSince that event this flower has been made emblematical of the sentiment, forget-me-no- t.
