Even tho' I don't see how they are in a position to crow any, I made the change rather than go to court.l The best of the XEX men are so ignorant that they are having their names put under XIEX in the fraternity write-upsf, 'Twould be well if some wise old bird were to make it known to these boobs that they are thus framing the ruination of their own lives. Alas! what a shame! CHAPTER Cl-IANT. O! We're the sons of licks li licks .-Xnd of monies we have peeks, And we always break our necks Trying to cash our chapter checks. 190 -
