OSKY WOW 1918 Gert Morgan (motoring with Kagle Beak): Do you think the automobile will displace the horse? Kagle Beak (very thoughtfully): It will if it hits him. Pu» Dewey after the football fame wifh Portsmouth. Corinne Evans: Do you think that clothes make a man? Eagle Beak: Gertainlv: a good suit has made many a lawyer. News It»m The annual burning of Virgil will be dispensed with this year, due to the high cost of paper. Certain of the Spanish students who were formerly troubled with insomnia, have found a remedy at last. Upon retiring, they repeat several times those soothing wor s of Wallace. “Spanish is an abomination.” (Peaceful sleep follows almost invariably. ) Mr Kinnison: Did any of you girls lose a bracelet? Girls: No. Mr Kinnison: Did you Fogarty? Have you any aim in life, Walter? asked Mr Shumate. Yes, Sir. I have two aims. What are they, Walter? The first is to be a millionaire, and— The second? The second is to be a multi-millionaire. The entire faculty regret to announnce that thev have failed to appreciate Edwin Arthur’s much-used idom, “seen” and also, David Shively’s “Who me?” Here's hoping that their after-sehool.day friends may meet with the same failure. Lines of Virgil all remind us If we had old Virgil here. We could move but leave behind us Tawny foo’-prints on his ear. Thomas Gerken: Do you know that thev have guards around the school house at night now? Ira Stephenson • Why? What for? Thomas: Because they found dynamite and explosives in the dictionary. A truly marvelous picture, Kay Johnson and Vint McCoy in full action.

Spang was going to Chillicothe one day in his 4’d with a lady friend, A man ran out into the road near Ricbmondale, and began waving his arms. “What’s the trouble?” snapped Spang. “Is it a police trap? Because if it is, I wasn’t driving more than twenty miles an hour----” ‘‘That’s all right, sir,” said the country man blandly. “I ain’t no policeman. Only my wife has been invited to a wedding tomorrow, and I wanted to ask if you could spare her a few drops o’ gasoline to clean her gloves with.” ‘‘Willard!” said Miss Baird, “is that chewing gum you have in your mouth?” “Yes, ma’am” said Willard “Bring it to me this instant.” “Wait until to-morrow and I will bring you a fresh stick.” Don’t you love our song, the “Star Spangled Banner?” I do. replied John Shumate Then, why don’t you join in the chorus?
