Qyou guessj THE DATA Doubtless, the most valuable extra-curricula activity of Centenary Collegiate Institute is the Man Haters' Club. This most valuable society was organized by a number of girls who have a genuine insight into the hearts and souls of males. The name of the society may be a little misleading, for we realize that to hate is to yield to a bitter vice, and because of pity fand other thingsj for men, we do not actually hate them, but are merely a little intolerant. With an organization go the necessary evils of rules and regulations. After much searching and researching, we decided that those who joined the society were inherently good, and therefore would be loyal to the society. We found it necessary to establish only three staunch rules. The first is a firm foundation for the other two. Members must not, under any circumstances, be so mortal as to fall in love. If an Apollo or Hercules saunters down the avenue, or gracefully glides past one on the dance floor, one must not heed. fHe muSt bear the pangs of love as a Stoic, with indifference to all things., The second law controls the society pins. These combinations of pearls and gold must be securely pinned on one's loveliest dress, and not on a man's g0-to- meetin' suit or on his colle e banner mid m riad others from inferior irls' colle esi . s . g . Y . . . . . l This law also encoura es irls to am as man fraternit ins as ossible. This idea . . . g g I S Y ' Y. - is also an incentive for a girl to keep her own society pm, for pins add glamour to any situation, and the more the merrierf' The third of the laws perhaps sounds cruel to a bystander. When we consider a law of the Universe, we shall realize that it is really not cruel, but inevitable. The rule provides that the fair maidens should break as many men's hearts as her poten- tialities allow. The talent of the members is fairly equally divided, so that it results finally in a thrilling contest. There is one defect, however, in this law, for To the victor belongs the spoils. To gain men is interesting enough, but what folly to have them forever, with their infernal art of writing love letters and things equally banal. However, we made provision for those who are incapable of resisting the Tarzans, or what seems to them to be Demi-gods. We must remember that To err is human, to forgive divine. May we be justly forgiven if Fate suddenly decides that love should blind us, and the week-ends should be ecstatic, and the remaining five days of the week be lived in a state of delirium.
