THE RED ,AND WHITE -BA- 31 Letter of Condolence 106 Main Street Rochester, N. H. January 10, 1952 Dear Uncle George: I can see you now, having a won- derful time relaxing and sporting around now that Aunt Mary has gone. You won't have to bother getting her meals, running after this and that so she will be comfortable. You know I always thought she was joking about her illness, but now I know she wasn't, since she's dead. Now you can have a real good time, going to the places and clubs you al- ways wanted to attend. When you knew Aunt Mary was going to die and you got a twenty-thousand dollar policy, I thought you were a very smart business man, as that was a smart business move on your part. Sorry I could not come to the fu- neral, but I suppose that you were in a hurry to bury her and did not care to have too many people there- else I should have been notified. So long for now. Your loving nephew, . Roger Beaudoin. Letter of Sympathy? To One Hospitalized 5 Richer Court Rochester, N. H. January 16, 1952 Hi Ya, Kid: Heard you 'had a slight accident. How come you couldn't get out of the way when you saw the train coming? You must have had your foot caught in the tracks just as they do in the movies. How did you feel when the train was a few feet in front of you and you knew it was too late to get out of the Way? It must have felt funny to lie in the ambulance and watch them pick up your leg and throw it into the rubbish truck. I know you can't answer this let- ter because of the shock you had which paralyzed your right arm. You won't be able to play basketball this year, will vou? Your girl sure feels bad about it all, she hasn't eaten or slept since the accident. You are go- ing to have a wooden leg now, I guess. You know it will be hard to learn to walk again. If it were anyone but you, I'd say he would .never learn to walk, but I know you can do it. You can't keep a good man down, is what I always say. Do you think you will have to repeat this school year? If you do, you won't be able to graduate with all your pals. Remember that night Sally saw a man with a wooden leg dancing? She said she would never go out with a person who had a wooden leg, so yo-u'd better get a new style plastic leg or KContimtecZ on Page 31,2 THE VALUE OF A COLLEGE EDUCATION fCom:imted from Page 1,2 tion in this field which he carried with him throughout his life. In much the same way, one can benefit by a college education. First one learns the fundamentals. How- ever, the basis for education is not to learn from books, by rote word for word, etc., but to learn how to reason quickly and accurately. In our college life we shall also make many acquaintances who will prove to be definite assets to us in later life. A college degree opens the door to many jobs and positions of- fering almost unlimited opportunities for advancement. . Therefore, it is a sincere opinion that if a person really wants to make something of his life, if he wants a worthwhile job with desirable advan- tages, he cannot afford to sacrifice the values of a college education.

Philadelphiaj A girl doesn't mind going out with a strong, silent man if he has plenty of money to do the talking for him. Voice from the floor of a Gonic bus: A-a-sh, someone's leaving. Now we can get a place to stand up. Mother: Whatl You flunked that course again ? Fred Perkins: What'd you ex- pect she gave me the same test ? Paul Clark: 'Tm thinking of ask- ing a girl to marry me. Do you think that's a good idea ? . Yvonne: Yes, if you ask me. Mrs. Valley was explaining to the class some of the mysteries of the French language. She told them that madame means a married Wo- man, Hmadamoisellev means 'an un- married woman and monsieur means a man. Then, to see if the class understood she asked one of our brains,' to tell the diierence be- tween madame and Umadamoi- sellef' Immediately the boy an- swered: Monsieur, ' A New Arrival CAROLYN WOODES, '56 In our family surprises are quite common, but one night last week we got an unusual one. We now have a new baby in our house. Oh, she's such a pretty thing. She weighs about one hundred pounds. Of course she is a bit large for her age. We stay up quite late with her on Friday and Saturday nights. All the neighbors come over for her feeding and they stay till 12:00 or 1:00. She costs quite a bit as all babies do. But we enjoy her so much that it makes up for her cost. She has a twenty-inch face. She comes in very clear on almost every night, even though it's snowing or raining. We christened her Philconnie but her real name is Philco. Have you guessed yet who our baby really is? ? ? ?
