17262 --Wfga E The rose blooms forth over night. The rose we have reference to is one, Floyd Cooper, he of the admirable smile and a vocab- ulary all his own. Floyd, as we know him, was always a good fistic fanatic, but only lately, exactly two weeks ago, did he blossom forth in all his roseate glory as an athlete-a soccer player of, if not the first, at least the second water. Floyd himself claims to have been surprised at his sudden handiness with his feet. His first experience on the soccer pitch was .the day of the third practice of our noble soccer squad when the Dour Scot mustered courage enough to fall in at the end of the line of soccer hope- fuls. Tichenor spotted him, admired him, and de- clared him a master of the honorable Dutch Contest. There is a powerful moral lesson in this. It is: Little do we know our own possibilities until we give them a chance to show off. MINCEMEAT A singular honor was conferred upon us the other day. VVe were allowed the liberty of placing our personal scrawl in the autograph book of Kenneth QDukej Haskins. We got more satisfaction, if possible, in carefully going through the thick covered book, than we did in placing our Hancock on one of the pages. Notable are the signatures therein contained and more notable are their owners. Strange enough, the more beautiful half of the student body seems to possess the best sense of humor. Where the quotations of the males are at times pointless, those of the ladies are spicey, artless and full of meaning, not always hidden. We have suggested to the Duke that his Eighteen book of knowledge be placed on view in the library during the forthcoming Know Your School VVeek. Eh-VV hat ? MIN CEME.-XT The Fervent Faculty now asks, nay expects, us to dig right in to our books and assimilate facts, educational and otherwise. Personally, we think the F. F. takes a lot for granted when it assumes we are in a fit mood to tackle and conquer brain-paralysing studies because we have been allowed to separate ourselves from them for the all too brief period of not quite three months. . Nvhat to do! -M RHNCEMEAT A After all-how ignorant we are! The young ladies of the institution have now proceeded to locate and emphasize waist lines, something we had come to think they never possessed. Gone are the snaky effects. Gone are the sweeping long skirts. In their place the high waist line and medium length skirt. Somewhere, somebody is accumulating any number of shekels just sitting still and think- ing up new arrangements of ladies draperies. That's our idea of a position. J. H. K.

Some girls do leave a. lasting impres- sion, don't they? Her Great Chance A ROMANCE IN ONE CHAPTER By G. Francis Koch lt was -dark as night. In fact it was night. Stabbing the blackness like a knife came the hiss of a desperate man. No other sound followed. Suddenly there was a Hood of light. Two figures were ready to kill, their weapons in their hands. Now, cried the big one. BANG, BANG, BANG. Silence. , :'Curse it, I missed him again. said the big one, Ambrose, bring the chair. Right-0, Emperor. ' There was a wild humming above as Elsie. the man-eating mosquito and her mate, Oscar. realized that the end was near. But they Tfwmzty would sell their lives dearly. Clinging to the wall just above the sleeping form of Cleopatra Caeran. they bared their proboscii and turned at bay. Oscar was the first to charge, but the trusty Ambrose ever ready at his superior's side, beat him down with a chair. Elsie was frantic. The Emperor was upon her. He raised his weapon, soaked with the blood of all hor best friends and relatives. Elsie ducked. Dead shot that he Was, the Emperor missed. He surpressed a curseg his wife was listening. With freedom within her grasp Elsie was brought to her doom by a strange freak of fortune. Cleopatra was gnashing her teeth as she slept and Elsie ducked too low and was
