THAT FRINGE AGAIN Those whiskers which Dr. Barr wears Are composed ol' promiscuous hairs, It' ,tis true as they say, Then we hope that some day Ile will shave them and .answer our prayers. A GIIADUATE'S CONFESSION Il's now six years since I lel't college, but it seelns to me as il' I have been out in the cold world since I.at'ayette's Farewell tour. I had al- ways understood that as soon as you got a college degree, the waiting world went behind and patted you on the back, but I have since found that this is merely a pretext to get in a good position to kick. At'ter I had personally seen to the framing ot my degree, I sat CTONVII and wrote a number ot' dignified letters to ditferent prominent firms, telling them that I had just tinished my college career, and would be willing to entertain a proposition from them, provided that I had Satur- days oli', an assistant that I could depend upon, and a capable stenogra- pher to look after the detail work. I enclosed a list ot' my grades, call- ing particular attention to my work in invertebrate anatomy, and to my thesis on The Cellular Structure ot' the Amoebaf' The firms wrote back and said they had all thc stenographers they needed, and that they lll'Cl'C1'I'0tl girls anyway. Boxx-Some day I am going to sleep a whole week. A QUESTION OF MATHEMATICS Miss Hsl was just asking Barb', about my figure. Prof. I-I-VVell, it' you want to know anything about it, ask me. Druss--VVhere is the opposite side ol' the street? M1lce's---Ovel' there. Druss--A-I was just over there and they told me it was over here. LET'S G0 TO KANSAS DadYA certain college in Kansas is teaching its girls how to become good wives. Ella-MDoes it guarantee them positions? WHO IS SHE? Is she democratic? ' Well, I never could take any liberties with her.
