.2 ,gg-.--A .ff , -J S .LQ WILKINS-BYERLY We know thatythose of you who think that heading means some kind of an announcement will be disappointed, however, we cannot refrain from asking the question, are they married? And if you ask what makes us ask such a question, we shall refer'you to a little happening which our high priced sleuth has observed many and many a time, and it is as follows: Several times, in fact, many more than sev- eral times they have been seen to go to the library ensemble. The follow- ing tableau takes place every time the library door is reached. Sam opens the libraryfdoor, enters, swings door as if to shut it, and marches right on with- out a glance behind him. Miss Sylvia appears in the doorway just as the great oak slab swings toward her. She catches the door knob and thereby prevents the door from knocking her Hat. She then enters, smiles at the on- lookers, then follows in Sam's footsteps with pride. That's how we got the idea. Better watch your step, Sam, old boy, the next thing you know she will be seen carrying the suit case. GENEVIEVE PANCAKE Miss Gen Pancake entertained a gentleman friend from out of town. The most humiliating thing happened the last night he was here. lt was awful, well, girls, you know how it is. Gen became dizzy after they got off the street car. Somehow she couldn't stay on the sidewalk, so her young man friend slipped his arm around her and held her on the sidewalk. How little did poor Gen think that our trusty sleuth was watching from, well that would be telling, if we said just where. At the last account Gen was still dizzy.

r ji p - I g.. s ,dk n i ,Aram EDWIN LINDBURG Mr. Edwin Lindburg has made another social blunder. Why is it that a man of his age and breeding cannot act more sincere? Frankly, we are very, very much disappointed in Mr. Lindburg since we learned of the car- fare episode. We blush when we think of it. VVhy, Ed., how could you be so Hirtatious as to pay Lena Heidman's car- fare for her? She has experienced a thrill every time the thought crossed her mind, poor dear. Take warning, Ed, do not play with a woman's heart like that, old thing. EDWIN PLIMPTON A spirit of benevolence and brotherly love seems to have entered the hardened heart of brother Ed Plimpton. We make this statement only after much studied thought and only after all the information available had been gathered and culled over and only that which was absolutely dependable was taken in the final reckoning. However, the bit of evidence which finally turned the tables in Ed's favor was the fact that he has of late shown his bounty in the large donations which have found their way to cell 327, Child's Hall. r Fruit, candy, cake, sandwiches-everything hungry prisoners could de- sire. More than that, he sent a puzzle-game so the long hours would seem shorter to the poor dears until the day when the cruel campus sentence shall be lifted.

IRENE JOHNSON Miss Irene Johnson, commercial student, was discovered hanging around near the dormitory one evening. The object to which she was hanging was no other than a real, live, honest-to-goodness he-many Her motive for such action could not be ascertained even by our best sleuth, who happened to be working on the case. It has not been the customary practice, as many a fledgling in the ranks of the freshmen has learned to his dismay, for the dormitory girls to con- duct themselves thus. Can it be that the old regime is giving way to a more modern method of--shall we say-entertainment? Heretofore, the girls have gazed, so we understand, wonderingly at that unfathomable creature, man, and dismissed him at the door with a frigid good-night from Miss Stillwell, or-in extreme cases-it is said, the girl herself dismisses the young man with a faint hand-squeeze. We wish to commend Miss Johnson on her new method, even if it does seem strange and new to us now CPD. Many will forget the old form and take up the new, or as Brutus or some other old nut said, Off with the old and on with new, hot dog, say we all! Fifteen for Ire! SCHLAMAN-KINGSLEY Nay, nay, Pauline, 'tis not an announcement, at least not for sure. However, inasmuch as youth naturally takes to youth it seems useless to explain Miss Peg Schlamanfs action in regard to a lettexg-her first one, so she says-that was written to Mr. Phil Kingsley on the night of March 9th. Miss Schlaman had taken Mr. Kingsley to the train, which, by the way, let it be said in her favor, was an action highly satisfactory, and heartily ap- proved by the faculty, Dean of Women and Mr. Ketman CPD. Phil was to be gone from D. M. U. for a week-seven Whole days, mind you. Just think of the postage stamps gone to waste! , That much of this tale is commonplace. The unusual part, and in fact that part of it which warrants its being in this section is yet to be related. Not two hours later Miss Schlaman was discovered writing a letter to Mr. Kingsley! When our detective came upon her she had just finished the sixth page. She showed signs of being able to write six more! And yet, Peg says Phil is just fun to run around with-nothing more. Come on gang, let's all be nothing mores.
