SUGGESTIONS FOR FRESHMEN Greet the professors felicitously; you may want to make Iota Phi. Do not walk in campus paths. Never sing at regular chapel service. It only makes you look foolish. Pay your News subscription by December 1 (political reasons). Go to class whenever possible. Rush some girl steady before the Thanksgiving banquet. Tip your hat to young ladies and Seniors. Plan to go home every week-end. Never veil at a football game. There is a yell leader elected to do that. If possible keep on speaking terms with the Sophomores. You will need humility when you return home. AN INTERESTING ANNOUNCEMENT Dr. Lymer (reading chapel announcements) : “Geneva slides in the biological laboratory tonight at seven-thirty. Everyone invited.” THE MOST ESSENTIAL THING Senior (to Freshman) : “Do you know what Wesleyan needs most?” Freshie: “A new science building.” Senior: “Yes, we need that, but—” Freshie: “Oh, yes; more interest in literary societies.” Senior: “That is true; but what we need most is—” Freshie: “Now I have it! A new faculty!” Senior: “That may be so, but if you will listen a minute—” Freshie: “That’s easy now. A bigger Freshman class.” Senior: “No; what Wesleyan needs most is a winning football team. A NEW STUDY Blakeslee: “Did you ever take morphine?” Blakeway: “No; who teaches it?”

MERELY A RUMOR It is reported that at the first session of the Freshman Chemistry class after the Xmas vacation Prof. Edwards gave a particularly dry lecture. At the end of the hour he attempted to call the roll but received no responses. Finally in desperation he aroused one of the men of the class and asked him to awake the rest of the people so he could call the roll. Then they might go home and sleep. TO CRAM OR NOT TO CRAM To cram or not to cram, That is the question : Whether ’tis nobler for the soul to suffer The pain and anguish of a “C”, Or cram until the birds of morning twitter And get an “A.” I ask thee, Which is fitter?
