FRED C. ENQLAND y Edilor in Chief W g q. D. RObison, JR. g Q Business ITlanager Q THE PHOENIX Published by THE STUDENTS of CUMBERLAND UNIVERSITY 1927 VOLUME XXXI I IZZ ' y s A GREATER CUMBERLAND IHOSE Cumberlanders who have been so intensely interested in the history, growth, and development of our University have probably gone so far as to delve into the dark and dusty archives of her past achievements, and have doubtless discovered some rather startling facts. In order to have a deeper and more profound appreciation of Cum- berland, it is very necessary that we become acquainted with her remark- able advancement. Any student with a vivid imagination is able to picture in his mind the commanding figure of an early visionist and the grayed-old self-effacing building of tender memories which stand watch, like twin sen- tinels, watching the uncounted days and numberless throngs of students hurry onward to the day of the greater school of their dreams. Out of the small material beginnings of a tiny Cumberland there has slowly grown the mighty and all-powerful institution that we know to-day. Through the melting years, inspired and guided by the far-reaching minds of our first fathers, splendid accomplishments and achievements have been attained and have followed one another in rather close succession. Into the ambient campus and the OLD, but newer, structures there has been builded the skeleton and framework of a high tradition, of a huge zeal, of a never-ceasing will to accomplish greater and even greater things for Cumberland. Through the long period of constant development there has been created and breathed into the mind of the University a strong desire to end advance and development only at the never-to-be-attained summit and pinnacle of perfection. Even so has it been with the great master builders of all history. Springing from their unfaltering quest of goals, perched high in the glistening mountains of ambition, has come their most precious contribution — the lesson of a stern spiritualism and a better phase of moral and social life admixed with a firm will to attain. Of such a leg- acy was born the Cumberland University that is to-day ; from that same source will be derived the material to make possible our newer dream — The Greater Cumberland. A Greater Cumberland ! Greater in distinction of faculty, greater in facilities for work, greater in service — to a portrayal of that ideal, the aim and purpose fostered and advocated by Cumberland since the time of her inception by those strong minds and stanch hearts and souls of our fathers, we must now and forever dedicate and consecrate our lives and work. Many elements must enter into the composition of a truly greater school. Material surroundings play a vital and very important part in the efficiency of a school, but the fact must never be forgotten that they are 4 . . y ik f f .. Tz: ivr y merely one portion of the whole scheme of the ideal campus and university environment. Faculty and student body are inseparable constituent parts of another requisite phase of our educational advancement. In the faculty there must be vision, sympathy, and the ability to understand, to inspire, and to lead ; in the student body, intellectual curiosity, sincerity, and ear- nestness of purpose. Permeating all these more tangible factors must be a strong belief in service, the leaven necessary to the most fruitful and pro- ductive mixture of concrete materials, if the spiritual apex of the welding which will make ultimately real the Greater Cumberland of our dreams is to be attained. Far in the past that has been so indelibly recorded, more real in memory than in fact, huddles the small Cumberland that was the forerunner and herald of our present University. On in the distant future, dimly outlined behind the misty and almost impenetrable veil that shields us from our fates, rises the towering and commanding Cumberland of the days to come. And we, m idway between the dim past and the equally misty and dim future, strain forward eagerly as we reach for the goal of further at- tainment. We remember the past because of its pulsing wishes which must be lifted high and carried on, because it is the inspirational dare and challenge to continued effort and labor. The future, a volume whose end- less pages of weeks and days glow and are made brilliant with opportunity, is before us ; and at our hand lies in readiness the magic pen of vision, the mighty instrument of construction. It is for us to see that we shall have written and wrought well; that the gleaming outlines of projected struc- tures, real now only to those who dwell in thought beyond the veil of mist, shall to-morrow be our lasting monuments in the quick-receding past. Cumberland gives every one of her sons and daughters a proud heritage. The blood of men and women, famed and renowned in the intellectual world, has been poured forth for us in order that we might enjoy the so great privilege of the glory in the search for knowledge and wisdom. Unto our minds is given some semblance of soothing intelligence ; our souls are fed from the storehouse which harbors the sweetest and most nourishing viands of spiritual sustenance; then to us is given the torch of our fathers, handed down in trust. It is for us to carry on and to uphold the confidence and trust so implicitly placed in us. _ .. FOREWORD Eayerly looking forward and an- ticipating the development of a greater CUMBERLAND; observing closely the path that has been tra- versed to see how much progress has been made; drawing as accu- rately as our abilities fit us a cross- section of one year of the transi- tion between the old and the new; pausing for a short time in our pursuit of wisdom, and knowledge to view as a ivhole the many ac- tivities of the cam.pjts — in that list our aim, object, and purpose in the compilation of the 1927 PhcenIX receive the most complete expres- sion. CONTENTS UNIVERSITY CLASSES ATHLETICS ORGANIZATIONS MELANGE DEDICATION. TO PROF. WILL D. YOUNG icho, by his i(iiti)i)tg efforts, lias striven to make Cinitberland Uni- versity the seat of the highest edu- cational and moial advancement; whose keenness of vision and un- ceasing labors have been the cause of groivth and development. As a man, as a professor, and as a mem- ber of the Athletic Committee, he has always concentrated his efforts in the best interests of the Univer- sity and of the student. Conse- quently, in ap-preciation of his in- valuable contribution to Cumber- land, the 1927 Phcenix is most re- spectfully dedicated. IZl y :sr PROF. WILL D.

ERNEST LOONEY STOCKTON Cumberland University has been exceedingly fortunate this year in having as her leader Acting President Ernest Looney Stockton. Stock, as he is familiarly known about the cam- pus, took over the reigns of the administration, a hard job, at a critical time, and he has shown his remarkable ability as an exec- utive in the success he has achieved in that capacity. Faced at the outset with the loss of President Harris, Professor Stockton has carried on the policies formulated by his predecessor with precision and smoothness and without disruption. Acting President Stockton comes to us from the ranks as a student, a professor, and a Dean, endowed with a blazing spirit to promote the welfare of his Alma Mater. Few universities can boast a President so universally popular both among the faculty and the students of the institution. Due to his long and varied experience in the University, Professor Stockton is well qualified to understand and appreciate the problems and difficulties that face each of its members. His policy of impartiality and fair- mindedness has won the confidence and admiration of all depart- ments. During his short service in the capacity of Acting President many new plans for the expansion of the University have been adopted, and scholastic requirements have been raised to a plane that will bring recognition throughout the educational world. Sincerity of purpose and the welfare of his Alma Mater have characterized his every effort, and Cumberland University has enjoyed rapid progress under his direction. He has proved that no person is more deserving of that rich old American title, A Gefitleman and a Scholar. IR ,_ a TTpMiiMM : - g;: az: (gyM[ii[ mMi ■21 :x PROF.

JOHN ROYAL HARRIS We were deeply shocked and saddened upon our return to school last fall by the announcement of the death of our Presi- dent, Dr. John Royal Harris. During the administration of Dr. Harris, Cumberland University achieved its greatest growth and advancement. Though he was a man of national importance, one of the most prominent figures connected with prohibition work, a brilliant educator, and a great preacher, we feel that in his loss, as one of his contemporaries remarked when speaking at the time of his death, We have lost a friend. Busy as he was with the important problems of University administration and attending to various educational and religious activities, he would always take time to lend a sympathetic ear to the troubles and problems of the student. His interest in the University centered not only in it as an institution as a whole, but in each individual student. When darkness and gloom encompassed the school, when fire had destroyed one of our buildings, and other problems appeared which threatened complete destruction and disaster, he quoted the famous motto of his Alma Mater, E Cineribus Resurgo — from the ashes I arise — and immediately started on a campaign of rebuilding and reorganization that has placed us to-day at the threshold of the greatest era of development and expansion Cum- berland has ever known. A great leader, an able executive, a wise adviser, a true Chris- tian gentleman, firm in his convictions, never side-tracking, never flinching. Dr. Harris fought for the right regardless of criticism or other obstacles. His indomitable spirit will ever be an inspiration to those who follow him in the work he has begun. 20 t i - - . . -fa ; IL (SPMiiigKL M© Z_ :5r WILLIAM D. YOUNG A.B., A.M.

As the night its course was taking, And eve ' s stillness calmed the air, There was one whose thoughts were taken, And whose soul was lent in prayer. He lay panting, moaning, gasping; And his fever still remained. And we wondered why in torment Our dear Lord kept him detained. His breath seemed short, his voice faint, And his strength seemed failing fast; And his hands he clasped in fervent prayer. And prayed unto the last. At length his form turned cold and white, And his lips ceased to move; But his pure soul returned to God, To live in its heavenly home. ' Tis true it caused grave sorx ' ow. And his dear ones mourned his loss; But can we tell how soon ' twill be When we that line shall cross? Soon there will be a meeting, And our friend we shall see, With whom we shall join on judgment flay, And march ever happily. 52 , r m -y :z: v 3r JUNIOR CLASS COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES ARNETT. J.

SflUAD — I92;i6 -.?- IRVEN TINY KNEE Director of Athletics Director Knee, a grridiron warrior of the Middle West, came to Cumberland from Wabash College, Wabash, Ind., in the fall of 1923. His feats and achievements on the jiridiron are well known to every Cumberland student and follower. Because of his remarkable abihty at plunging the line, circling the ends, and direct- ing of aerial attacks, he was the mainstay of the Cumberland eleven during the 1923 and 1924 campaigns. lUilldog opponents always kept a watchful eye on the hard-hitting Tiny. The officials of Cumberland realized the popularity and wonderful ability of Tiny as a player and foot- ball coach, and gave the Athletic Department a most dependable and versatile man by appointing him Director of Athletics. Succeeding Frank Bugs Wilde, Tiny formulated plans to install a progressive system of sports. As a football coach, Tiny displayed his ability and prowess : for football is his favorite game : it :s the basis of his fame and renown. With six letter men returning from last year ' s victorious eleven and blessed with a wonderful array of untried talent, Tiny went at his work with the determina- tion to give Cumberland another winning team. By dint of hard, conscientious, untiring labor, foiled at times by men who chose to be individualistic rather than cooperative, Tiny drilled the fundamentals of moleskin lore into the minds of his cohorts and put out a team that deserves more credit and praise than has been received from the student body. The record of the 1926 Maroon and White eleven should contain six victories against no defeats, but the event at Murfreesboro counts a defeat, and should detract not one whit from the ability of the Coach. We are familiar with the Bulldog record ; we know the difficulties, the various handicaps and misfortunes that confronted t he Cumberland Canines at every turn. But, rising above these obstacles, the Knee eleven was a remarkable representative of Cumberland on the a ' thletic field. S-, C )P r TTpS = ??= IL (gy lg M© zz y I RESUME OF SEASON On the afternoon of Septembtr 6. 1926. Coach Knee was greeted with the greatest galaxy of football mate- rial that ever cavorted on the Cumberland gridiron, and was also presented with the most unfavorable training weather that old J. Pluvius could hand out. After two weeks of grueling and grinding calisthenics and scrimmage, marred by a burning sun. the Red Bulldogs were hosts to the gridiron representatives of Ogden College. Plowing through a sea of mud. the Bulldogs gained a none too brilliant decision by a 21-7 score. Captain Singleton wai the shin ing light of the struggle, his spectacular dash of sixty-five yards through the entire Ogden team being one of the outstanding features of the 1926 campaign. The next battle on the Bulldog schedule brought Hall-Moody Normal to Lebanon. The Maroon and White griddcrs proceeded to massacre their lighter and lesser-experienced opponents, snowing them under a deliig. ' of passes, bucks, and end runs which netted them 31 points to their opponents ' none. On October 20, Coach Knee and his proteges journeyed to MUrfreesboro for a conflict with the Normal- ites. And a real conflict it was! The Red Bulldogs went ' into the fray top-heavy favorites in the opinion of several critical observers and coaches. Evidently the arbiters thought to make them the under dogs, for they elected to give them a raw decision on every important play. Twice they ruled touchdowns to be no good : countless times they failed to notice the Normal forwards in their dirty work of hacking, holding, slugging, and cutting. The game was a scream from the standpoint of raw decisions, and the Bulldogs returned to their native kennel smarting under a 23-7 setback administered at th3 h-in:ls of Norm- .l and her capable arbiters. t -. 60 J i .- s: ; IL ( ¥ m ' §,m mm 21 :sr After the Normal encounter, Coach Knee took his cohorts into the mountainous regions of Cookeville in order to administer an annual drubbing to the FJying Eagles of Tennessee Tech. This was done in a manner satisfactory to the Tech supporters. The score was 21-0. Having thrice tasted the sweets of victory in four starts, the Cumberlanders entrained for MaryviDe. where they were carded for an Armistice Day attraction with the Maryville Highlanders. In this game the Bulldogs completely outplayed their opponents in every department of play, but old Lady Luck cho e to deprive them of the coveted decision by resorting to a fumbled punt to turn the trick. It happened in the final canto of the encounter. Bill Baird fumbled a punt on his five-yard line, and it was recovered by Maryville. After repeated thrusts at the Red forward wall, their opponents scored the winning marker. Upon their return from the Maryville invasion, the Bulldogs went into rigid and conscientious training for their feature game of the season with the U. T. doctors, in Memphis, November 20. Heralded in the Bluff City as a conquering eleven, Coach Knee and Captain Singleton lauded to the skies for their pa t gridiron accomplishments, the Cumberland eleven very impressively lived up to its rumored reputation by overwhelmingly annihilating the Medicos 12-0. The wonderful cooperation and teamwork, never displayed in previous games, was outstandng in this game, being capped off by the spectacular work of the famous Singleton-to-Hicks aerial combination ; the thrilling dashes of Brooks, Baird, Knee, and Yeargin ; and the remarkable defensive and offensvie work of the Maroon forward wall, composed of the stalwart form? of Humphreys, Greth. Simms, Bostick. Cook, Taylor, and Arnett. Thus ended Cumberland ' s gridiron season ' mid the shouting and tumult of victory. Past defeats were forgotten with the brilliant triumph over the Doctors. Coach Knee was again heralded and praised for his good work and the team commended for the record compiled. 4 , J ts- C 61 TpMiiMm i i .- -fa ;:;gg- IL tumm m mm ZL :s VARSITY SCHEDULE Cumberland 20 Cumberland 24 Cumberland 26 Cumberland 25 Cumberland 34 Cumberland 46 Cumberland 36 Cumberland 22 Cumberland 24 Cumberland 20 Cumberland 22 Cumberland 25 Y.

A squad of approxi- mately fifty players reported for the initial work-out. Coach Hicks returned only three letter men from his 1926 team — Ben Brooks, catcher: Stacy Adams, outfielder: and himself — but he was greatly cheered by the presence of his old battery mate, the famed and renowned Hubert Dusty Miller, who had come back to don the mask and breast protector for Cumberland and to bear th? burden of receiving chores. Hicks assumed control at once and set about the molding of a gritty and fighting aggregation of Bulldog diamond performers. With Cook, Weir, Harrel, Milan, and himself for pitchers : Miller, Baird, and Sandlin for catchers, Hicks was confronted with no worry in .the battery department. The greatest problem dwelt in the for- mation of a dependable and aggressive infield and outfield. The solution of the inner garden question found Ben Brooks at the hot corner; Whitey Driskill, Oklahoma flash, in the short field; Hood Kizziar, at the keystone station ; and Freshman Liggett, of Birmingham, covering the territory around the initial hassock. The outfield loomed, giantlike, as a problem : but Coach Hicks started things by placing Stacy Adams in the left garden, Bill Baird in the right garden, and Harrel in center field. ri4 .. jr €y[? [i§ E. s [M© IZl y :x Thus the Bulldogs began their 1927 diamond campaign. The first game was lost to the Nashville Vols by a 14-5 score. But the Bulldogs came back strong to defeat Northwestern University (Chicago) by a 2-0 count, the masterful pitching of Hicks being outstanding, while the team hit and fielded brilliantly. The second encounter with Northwestern terminated in a 5-5 deadlock. Cook, in the shell pit for Cumber- land, pitched well, but a varied collection of boners on the part of the Bulldogs came near donating the decision to the visitors. After Northwestern came Bethel College (Ky.) to fall before the onslaught of the Bulldogs by a 14-3 score. Then the Maroon and White crew divided a two-game series with their old rivals, Tennessee Tech. The Bethel (Tenn.) College was handed the short end of a 6-5 decision, and the Bulldogs departed for a disastrous road trip through Western Tennessee, losing two games to Bethel and two to Union. The Bulldogs returned home to battle T. P. I. two games, winning the first by a forfeit, the second ending in a knotted count at the end of the fifth inning. The next teams played fell victims to the best brand of baseball the Bulldogs demonstrated during th entire season. The whole team hit and fielded in remarkable fashion to win over the Lions ' Club (Nashville) in two games — the first, by a 10-2 count; the second, by a 4-2 margin. In order to avenge the gridiron defeat at the hands of Murfreesboro Normal last fall, the Maroon aggregation proceeded to wallop the Normalites in fine style by a 5-0 score. Hicks pitched masterly ball, the team went on a hitting spree to collect twelve safe blows, while not an error was chalked up in the record books. The Bulldogs had a good team at the beginnng of the season, a wonderful team at the end, but in the interim they seemed to be working under the effects of intermittent fever. The final records show eight victories for seven defeats, a team batting average of .277, and a fielding average of 932. 65 . y ik:? mEmm g _ : ■ = g -JL V z n ' mm. m -z: y s WEARERS OF THE e FOOTBALL Singleton, 2 7 Brooks, ' 28 BOSTICK, ' 29 Yeargin, ' 29 Baird, ' 29 Knee, ' 29 Taylor, ' 27 SIMMS, ' 27 Hicks, ' 27 Arnett, ' 28 Humphries, ' 28 Greth, ' 27 Goodman, ' 27 Cook, ' 29 BASKETBALL Martin, ' 27 Lamun, ' 27 FiTTS, ' 29 Goodman, ' 27 Driskill, ' 27 Hicks, ' 27 ROBISON, ' 27 BASEBALL Miller, ' 27 Miller, ' 27 Adams, ' 29 Hicks, ' 27 Baird, ' 29 Driskill, ' 27 Harrel, ' 27 Brooks, ' 28 Cook, ' 29 Liggett, ' 30 Sandlin, ' 28 Kizziar, ' 27 Milan, ' 28 66 - Vf ff : i i I i ssss 3SSS ■ r. i« ii Trg?PSfg5 Organizations y z- : ' % .i  iiitiiitti jg y _ z ir (gyp flgji mw zzz ' y IST SIGMA ALPHA EPSILON Founded at University of Alabama March 9, 1856 TENNESSEE LAMBDA CHAPTER Founded, 1860 FRATRES IN FACULTATE John J.

While attending the summer school of the Law Department of Cumber- land University, a group of men decided to found a national legal frater- nity, no national legal fraternities being represented at Cumberland Uni- versity at that time. By November, 1922, all steps necessary were com- pleted, and the Phi Pi Legal Fraternity was incorporated under the laws of the State of Tennessee. Charters were offered by two of the leading national legal fraternities, but the founders of Phi Pi, realizing the real need of a national legal fraternity embodying the principles for which Phi Pi stands, refused to accept the charters. Through the years of Phi Pi history there have been four other chapters installed — the Florida Beta, Louisiana Tau, Missoui ' i Gamma, and Texas Lambda. The Beta Chapter was established at the University of Florida, at Gaines- ville, in the spring of 1924. The Louisiana Tau was established at the University of Louisiana in 1923. This chapter was organized from a local legal fraternity, the Phi Pi Alpha. The Texas Lambda was granted a charter in the fall of 1924, at Baylor University, Waco, Texas. The Missouri Gamma Chapter of Phi Pi was installed at Washington University, St. Louis, Missouri, 1923. 75 i ; . 21 T -g o y 76 t = : m ..- ■ as: ; IL ' ( UmmERLlF mB IZZ ' X SIGMA DELTA KAPPA Established at Cumberland University 1924 Colors: Red and Black Flower: Red Rose FRATER IN FACULTATE John J.

The fraternity is composed of twenty-seven active chapters, extending from coast to coast, with alumni in every State of the Union and many foreign countries. Pi Chapter, of Sigma Delta Kappa, was honored at the national convention by the election of Clyde F. Busey to the office of Grand President of the South- ern District. In keeping with the spirit of a legal organization, this fra- ternity is rapidly developing a splendid library, consisting of the Corpus Juris-Cyc set and many individual volumes.

A. has ever been among the strong reli- gious forces of the University, and is a training camp for the students who plan to enter a field of larger usefulness. Cumberland has carried on in this task for many years. The Y emphasizes Bible study, which was enlarged in scope and actual practice this year. Several delegates attended the Bible Conference held in Nashville during February, 1927. Mr. Russell Tanner was a delegate to the International Conference held at Milwaukee from December 28 to January 1. The Y charges no fee for membership. Myles Horton was President during the year 1926-27. 89 - ; ;;g ■jr ( unm m mm izi :x UNIVERSITY GIRLS ' CLUB OFFICERS Mary Ethel Earned President Gertrude Gaines Vice President Rhea Patton Secretary Mrs. Roy Hill Sponsor Alexander, Elsie Mai Alexander, Lucille Alexander, D ' Alva Allen, Argie Barber, Floreine Bentley, Josephine Browning, Marye Case, Doris Chapman, Mildred Chandler, Dorothy Cooper, Marvine Collins, Lois Davis, Catharine Davis, Doris Donnell, Sue Fryer, Sue French, Prances FoRTSCH, Ethel MEMBERS Freeman, Eugenia Guinn, Louise Gaines, Gertrude Harris, Josephine Henson, Vera Hooker, Mrs. John Earned, Mary Ethel Hicks, Mary Gordon Hereford, Nannie Hereford, Julia Holland, Mary Norton Jeter, Ruth Keith, Virginia Knee, Mrs. Irvin McDaniel, Catherine Martin, Rosamond Moss, Elizabeth Posey, Martha Patterson, Esther Plunk, Mildred Smartt, Cornelia Smith, Marion Strong, Jane Stutz, Evelyn Medlin, Jean Stockton, Ruth Patton, Rhea Rice, Hula Smith, Anna Green Mitchell, Bernice Rhea, Louise Witherspoon, Mabel White, Lillian Whitlock, Betty Vaughan, Frances Young, Mrs. Will D. tv - :CP : 90 STTMiim b y? j _y ) ' K r- J ' jL ePMigp t Mi z: v :x N X ' ' Ul sj AMASSAGASSEAN LITERARY SOCIETY I OFFICERS Mary Gordon Hicks Hula Rice Floreine Barber Virgil Gaines Stockton, Ruth Knee, Homer Rice, Hula Campbell, Charles Patterson, Esther Humphries, Allison Posey, Martha Waller, Charles Hicks, Mary Gordon Beard, James Feeback, John Strong, Jane Ellis Walker, Philip MEMBERS Holland, Mary Norton Gaines, Virgil Collins, Lois Connor Hicks, Carl A.

Well, at least there ' s one difference: The old-time flapper took her necking parties seriously. You can ' t blame a woman for not knowing- which way to turn. You wouldn ' t know, either, if you had your mind on something else. Singular situations often call for a plural action. A classroom is like an old car — a crank in front and a bunch of nuts in the rear. The world may be full of trials, but it isn ' t the trials that worry most men; it ' s the verdicts. Many a college student coming home from a party can ' t use his latch key because of his whis-key. Now, we ask you, was the girl from Alabama, whose father was an undertaker, right when she said her father was a Southern planter? A good way to study the English language is to stop a college bay who is chasing his hat and bum him for a match. The height of bad luck would be for a shark to grab off a swimmer who was full of bootleg licker. Although Adam couldn ' t have traveled much, history tells us that he knew his stuff abDut leave taking-. Some noses turn up naturally. It takes an auto and a fur coat to make others do it. Marriage and college are similar, in that you don ' t get any time off for good behavior. The college students lead a hard life between the churches trying- to convert them and the courts trying to convict them. Rudyard Kipling, the poet who made his prayer to a rag, a b one, and a hank of hair, wouldn ' t recognize the old girl in these days of beauty parlors. One great economic waste is killing perfectly good sheep to make college diplomas. Life would be perfect if the dear young things just wouldn ' t get the bloom of youth higher on one cheek than on the other. 116 y ' i ' f i - - aL tMnm m mm IZl ' y :x MEDBURY SAYS Altar Expenses Two hundred well-known business men have just formed a mutual protective associ- ation for alimony papers. They ' re trying to cut down the high cost of separate maintenance. They want more courtships and fewer marriages. Engagements should be made more permanent. One of the charter members is trying to get the automobile club to put danger signs in municipal buildings. Our city halls should be made safe for bachelors. Fountain pens in the marriage license bureau should be equipped with stop lights. We have safety gates at railroad crossings; why not put them in front of altars? Love at first sight is wonderful, but the law should force a couple to take another look. One fellow wants the churches to do away with wedding bells and use fog horns. Some men are more successful at marriage than others. There ' s a man in New York who makes such a good husband that he ' s been married seven times. Of course he is very wealthy and can afford to keep himself in circulation. But seven wives is a large pay roll for any man. But he doesn ' t care ; he realizes that a check book a day keeps the lawyer away. He got worried last month, however. Somebody told him that his ex-wives were going to incorporate. His in-laws are busily engaged in framing up the by-laws. Keep the Home Pipes Running Prohibition agents are watching the bootleggers so closely now that a New York liquor syndicate is planning to run a pipe line from Canada. Several new apartment houses have ordered wet and dry plumbing. One fellow heard the news recently and had the water turned off. He went around and put corks in all the faucets. It won ' t be long before New York flats will have hot and cold running gin. Every sink will be a bar. And all the kitchens will be night clubs. One man is having his living room piped for Scotch. Every end table will be a drinking fountain. The couch will have three faucets, so that the guests won ' t have to stand in line. He ' s selling his goldfish and using the bowls for cracked ice. The liquor will be on a meter, and drinking will be done by the cubic foot. When the plumbing is finished, he ' ll be able to get a headache in any room in his house. The only disadvantage is that he ' ll have to go next door for his water. Of course he could have it in his own house, but he doesn ' t want to waste any pipes. The bootlegger is making the rates so reasonable that he ' s even going to have the tubs connected in the basement. Laundry work, however, will be done in beer. He ' ll buy from two different companies, so that if one firm shuts off his Scotch he ' ll still have gin. finis. ._ i « s 117 M fS :s- = y= -rr t ¥mwm. mm ZL - - 9 n 118 - IT 7 z wmmitmrn ■ V X _, ' ' i ' )txnnnnnnnnnKnnnununKxnnnnxnnnxMK STATIONERY TOILET GOODS Shannon ' s Drug: Store Headquarters for I Every Need That a Drug Store Can Supply )g( For Quicker Service PHONE 180 PHONE 34 5 - ANTONIO — Shoot a pound of flesh !
