A COMPLIMENT The reason I am not signing my name to this is that I dcn't want the other humorous editor to know who wrote it. The other day Mr. Shipton was talking to some outsider about the Annual Board, and he mentioned the names and positions of us all. When he came to the humorous department his listener, who is a well known writer, said that one of those names was fa- miliar. He went on to say that he had once known one of those kids. and believed he was a real literary genius. He told Mr. Shipton that it would be Well to keep an eye on the humorous edit- ors, and that he would find out which one it was. I would be over modest to let such an appreciation of real genius go unnoticed. Of course he had ME in mind, :but I don't care to let the other editor know that. He's all right, ibut then he's not in MY class. Why: a man as prominent and celebrated as this one should single out a person so little- known as I is more than I know, but there must have been good reason for his opinion. He spoke albout the excellent humor and splendid style of this person, freferring to MEL and promised Mr. Shipton to let him know which one it was. Then he prophesied national fame for that young chap -the Tiger is mighty lucky to have such a writer on its staff. Since this article has 'gone through the hands of the censors, that fellow has returned, and it seems he had Homer White in mind. I never have any luck! N O T E B'y Another Editor This story has a moral: Man is a mighty queer animal: you can pat him on the back and make his head swell.
