m THE 11.920 EMF; DO YOU KNOW THAT —you must not hit a man when he is down, unless sure, that you can keep him down? —if we listen to the troubles of others, it may make us better satisfied with our own? —they say that kissing by telephone has only one thing in its favor? A fellow does not get a mouthful of powder or a taste of red paint. —when a girl invites a young man to her home for dinner and tells him, that she did all the cooking, it is time for him to sit up and look out? —often it is easier to catch on, than it is, to let go? —the average woman is a good actress off the stage ? —the hardest part about an easy job is, the getting it? —it is hard to believe a man a liar, when he says nice things about you? —notwithstanding, that silence is golden it generally pays the agents to keep on talking? —when a man succeeds the world envies him, and when he fails, it sympa- thizes with him—but secretly rejoices? —many people think that they arc acting dignified, when they only have the big head? —the majority of people will speak sweetly of you to your face and tell you. that the band ought to play whenever you come along, but when discussing you with others, there is always a sprinkling of profanity in their remarks? —nothing else disgusts a man so much, as to arrive at a meeting place fifteen minutes late and find, that the other fellow has not arrived? —most men are brave, until bravery is demanded? —a smile can accomplish more in a minute, than harsh words in a month? BURROWS ROGERS, II-F. WHY SOME OF STUDENTS CAME TO THE S. O. E. Wells—I wanted to be in a school where there were no girls to bother me. Slowick—I came with the supposition that my talents would be needed. Olsen—Well, well. I had known one of the athletes here and wanted to know him better. Rice—I came to .set the styles and to recover from last year’s social events. Zimmerman—I came to escape the eagle eye of my parents in order that I might play poker at pleasure. I hope to become a “sharper” in time. Myers—Life in Iowa wasn’t exciting enough to suit his peculiar dis- position. J. W. Page One Hundred Ninety-eight

M ' % -f HE 1920 A TIP FOR II-F ENGINEERS 1 Upon starting in on a new term's work, make out as complicated a schedule «'is possible. The office force will appreciate your efforts. (How about it, Miss Koehler?) 2 Kindly inform your instructors as to how they should deliver their lec- tures. You will make a big impression on them by so doing. 3 While in chem. lab. blow up a few generators. You will be surprised to see how it breaks the monotony. (The pleasure is all yours, Slye.) 4 Do not bother your electrical lab. instructors by asking them for fuses. After three or four months of school, you should be able to help yourself. 5 Develop the habit of throwing chalk and waste paper in the lamp bowls. It will make a good basketball played of you. 6 After completing term one you are qualified to .step into the limelight. Wearing an S. O. E. tic and a red and white chrysanthemum down Grand Avenue will get you the spotlight as quickly as anything. 7 Make as much use of the elevators as possible. The operators enjoy the work immensely. (Ask Looic, he knows.) 8 While in class, cultivate the habit of whistling and scratching on the chairs and walls. Your instructors will immediately inform you as to how highly they appreciate these habits. 9 If possible, specialize in deaf and dumb language. It will save a great deal of time and trouble for both the Chamber of Commerce girls and your- self. 10 Remember, it is patriotic to be economical. If you cannot smoke all your cigarette during class intermissions, go fifty-fifty with a friend. Perhaps he will return the favor later on. 11 Mingle as much as possible with the crap shooters. Your donations to the good cause may save some of the boys a long Sunday night walk. 12 Attend all the smokers given by the school. Make it a point to get to every otic if it is only long enough to grab off a good cigar. O. E. S. 4 0 0 LITERALLY OF COURSE Bright Elcctrotech (to Editor Maiers) : “I sent you some suggestions telling how to make the E. M. F. more interesting. Have you carried out my ideas?” Maiers: “As you came in did you meet the office boy with the waste basket ?” Elec-tech.: “Yes, sir, I did.” Maiers: “Well he was carrying out your ideas.” Page One Hundred Ninety-nine
