THE 1917 LLAMARADA Emu In Glultiuatv Glnllege Glnllnquializma Wy H. U- Listen, girls! Have you ever envied a college chum for easy, picturesque language? You have? Well, I'm going to tell you how each one of you can master this for yourself. The first general rule to follow is to abbreviate wherever possible. It impresses mere outsiders with the stupendous amount of work you have to accomplish before 4:45 period. Talk fast, intersperse with such cryptics as Lib,', Gym',, lic , Math , VVillie , and Lab',, and emphasize as many wordx as possible. , . fllwayr address friends as - Kids , People , or Women , possibly pre- fixing Nly Dearln Adverbs and adjectives are useful for emphasis if carefully selected: Hgrandu, fierce , and awful,', petrified , absolutely',, are always appropriate. Select words which call u u attractive victures. With this in mind be a friend l l a 8 to hop off , and speak not of going anywhere, but of steaming , trailing,', or floating. lt is all very simple when you understand how. Yes, indeed, ,vimpla is just the word. 26
