He is emphatically not a woman hater. In keeping with these char- acteristics is his impractical mind. If you were to have a chat with him the thing impressing you lirst will be his artistic sense and taste. V In engineering Work he is a poor guesserg his mind cannot grasp the object of designing a thing throughout and then choosing something else by guess. He frankly admits that he has missed his profession. Surely we have all found out by this time that he was intended for an architect, interior decorator and landscape gardener. u In the drawing-roon'. of an afternoon his artistic nature hncls an outlet in snatches of the best operas execrably sung. 38

I 'The smallest hcrir z'h4'0ws its shadow. l MEXICO Van de Mark is elected president of everything that admits him to its membership. Such organ- izations run from the Bartenders' Association to the Senior Debating Society. Vandy is also an in- ventor of organizations, but he never perfects them. 'In the middle of last Winter he set about garden- ing with rake and hoe, and as a result he has a promising crop of weeds' on his upper lip. Had it not been for Steer, Vandy would have been the originator of this. Some one has questioned what he usecl to irrigate the garden with. There is a little girl in Brooklyn who will iinally ,capture the mastaclon, and We suggest that she first burn all the pictures that Vandy has collected or indications of his triple life will get abroad. 40
