2 'IIII IIIIIIIV' 'Z s 0 U C 0 0 0 . f 9 9 , . I A BICYCLE AFTER MEETING WITH AN AUTOMOBILE One tire was here, the other one hung around the hydrantg the front wheel, which was minus twenty-eight spokes, was hanging on the front of the autog and the rear one rested on top of it. The fork inot a fork used to eat withl was broken into two parts, one was found on the fender of the car, and the other poked one end out of the spare tire. The saddle was lieing in the yard across the street and the handle-bar, which was badly bent was hanging on the limb of a tree. The frame was broken into two parts, and was near the auto which had both head-lights broken and the radiator bent in. Well, to say it all in a few words, the automobile was about in the same con- dition as the bicycle. The car was towed to the garage and it took about a, year to repair it. The next day I went to the Cletus Junk's yard and saw the bicycle there. I asked Cletus who was riding it when it received those slight damages, and he said, A Cookie. I should have liked to have been there to see how many crumbs were left after the kids got finished! -Robert Rumschlag,'29. MY BIG BROTHER The most annoying character in our family is, My Big Brother. One of his chief weaknesses is keeping in touch with his ties and other such articles of men'S apparel. His cap can be found in a11y place from the coal bin to the attic. and he certainly seems to abide by the -scientific fact that like lightning, it can never be found in the same place twice. If he had within reach all of his sweaters but one, that one, of course, would be the one he most desired to wear. It's. Sis, where's this, and Sis where's that? If all big brothers are like that ONE big brother of mine, I wish I had one less. -Helen Schmitz,'28. MY EXPERIENCE AS A PIECE OF PAPER It'S a sad story I have to tell you. After the hardships I had to undergo to be' come what I am, excuse me, I mean what I was, a nice, smooth sheet of paper, I think I deserved to be the first sheet in a new clean tablet. Natugrally, I became a. little soiled lying around in the store so long, but that was no reason why, after I had been bought by a High School student of the Decatur Catholic School. I should be torn off and used to be scribbled all over, On one side three attempts were made to write a story for the Tattler fall of which failed! and the other side, was filled with algebra signs and Latin phrases. However, not being able to hold any more figuring or writ- ing, I was crushed into a ball and thrown into the back of the desk. Here I am wait- ing 111Y inevitable fate, when more than likely I shall be thrown into the wastepaper basket and then-but I shudder to think of the thereafter. -Mary Virginia Hyland,'29. Ninety nine
