THE MIRROR u gum- 1929 WELLHOUSE WAILS The Library is a fine place to get a good seat and elbow rest to think about which class is off tomorrow. I don't see why girls can't get a permanent wave. The American flag has had one for over one hundred and fifty years. If Pa is out late at night, Ma never calls him. She waits till he gets home then she goes for him. A certain farmer girl, now in college, said a man came over to their house to see a hog and Pa wasn't at home. I To get a book from the library you multiply the base by the altitude and get the volume immediately. If a woman's face is her fortune I have seen several bankrupt girls. H We learn by our mistakes, we make mistakes by not studyingg therefore wc learn by not studying. We have college diplomas so the graduates can prove to people they have becn to school. A freshman girl said they had a black pig at home and they called him Ink, 'cause he ran out of the pen. I heard a woman say her husband was insane. I told her if he,was her husband I knew he was insane. 4 A fellow asked me the other day if I knew how long a man could live without brains.

I would have been born in that month too, I guess, but it was better to scatter noted birthdays throughout the year. If I had been born the night before Adam was created and could live till per' petual motion is invented, you never could in all that time convince me that note books are a value to any one.

THE MIRROR f 1929 1 . 4 . My girl isn't a blonde but she is dyeing to be. I own a little swarm of bees, And they to save their lives Had to go around with me For I have got the hives. My motherfinflaw is dead and gone, Alas, to never return, She's up there with the angels She was too tough to burn. It isn't the grade that you make in class Nor the A at the end of the term ' That counts for you in later life, It's the facts that you actually learn. One good sign of spring is when the love sick couples begin to soak the frost out of the rock on the Campus. One Professor sent his wife a check for five hundred kisses-the man next door cashed it for her. THE GREEN GRASS GREW ALL AROUND A green little freshie in a green little way Mixed some green little chemicals up one day.
