Prof.: “Fools ask questions that wise men can’t answer.” Student: “That’s why I flunked.” A LEGITIMATE REASON Miss King: “Mr. Van Horn, you are hopelessly dull, what do you think your head is for?” Van Horn (drowsily) : “I guess to keep my collar on.” ON THE BASKETBALL FLOOR Referee: “Foul on Gabeline.” Gabeline: “There’s no feathers on me.” Mauch (butting in) : “No, this is a picked team.” UP IN THE WORLD Stranger on campus: “Beg pardon, but could you tell me where I could find some one in authority?” Stromberg: “Sure, what can I do for you?” CAN IT BE? Prof. Blair: “There are places where people don’t even gossip.” Anita Crips: “Where ???????” DO LOOKS DECEIVE? At Y. W. C. A. reception. Inez King and Ollie Mauch dressed like little girls and eating animal cookies. Inez (as she found a cookie with a raisin on it) : “Oh, Ollie, I have a raisin.” Ollie: “You don’t look to me as though you ever had any raisin.” THE RESULT OF AN ECONOMIC MIND Percy Caris (telling about running his auto into a flock of sheep and describing the way the wool flew). Fimmen.- “Was there any tariff on that wool?” Percy: “Yes, it was nearly all tore-olY” (tariff). Freshman Girl (after watching the surveying class at work on the campus) : “What are they doing over there, taking pictures for the Croaker?” Anita (who has been acting as nurse for Betty) : “Etta says I’m just getting in practice, cooking for Betty, so I won’t have to practice on you.” “Jeff”: “Poor Betty, I suppose that’s why she has been in bed so long.”

SUBMITTED BY NOAH “I suppose no one will have gravy on Thanksgiving because of the trouble between Greece and Turkey.” A HAPPY THOUGHT Prof. Johnson: “Give an example of an imaginary spheroid. Bright Student: “A rooster’s egg, sir.” THE SWEETEST WORDS After Finals—“You have passed.” From a Pal—“The drinks are on me, boys.” From Your Best Girl—“Never mind the flowers and we don't need a cab.” From Home—“Enclosed find check for $50.00.” Wire From the State Contest—“Iowa Wesleyan first, Parsons fifth.” From Prof at Chapel—“Unable to meet my class, take the same lesson.” DIPPY OVER DAFFY DILLS If Jack and Jill go to house keeping, will Billboard ? Would a tight sash give a window pane? If a bar of soap can dance, can a wash rag? If a chauffeur is fat, is he gasoline? If the man in the moon had a baby, would the skyrocket? If “Fritz” pitched would “Dutch” Mauch? —Selected. Glenn Lee, he crept into the house, The cuckoo clock struck four. Glenn crept up close beside the clock, And cuckooed eight times more. ’TWAS MIDNIGHT Mary: “And you say that you would put yourself out for my sake?” Dewitt: “You’re right, I would.” Mary: “Then do it, please, for I’m awful sleepy.” § iM; i
