We are fortunate in having Miss Randall as our adviser, to whom the sincerest gratitude is due for her interest and tireless zeal; this, combinei! witji the entliusiasm of the members, gives us e ery hope for a successful future.

Due to the absolute impossibility along academic lines of the complete chairmanship being placed in one person, the executive board conceived the idea of a dual responsibility, residing in the chairman and the Cabinet collectively. This organization has many plans for raising money, some of which are under way. With the help of the alumnae, we are looking forward to a very prosperous year.

I bet it ' s a quiz, whiffled little Gloomy Bailey — but she was quickly hushed by Kay Norris, who bravely gurgled, Maybe it ' s a trip to see the moo-moo cows — for Katie was a cheery little soul and always ready to see the bright side of life. You ' re wrong, my midgets, chuckled Aunty Wailes. It ' s a trip to the Epi- leptic colony — and at this there was such a clapping of hands as you never heard, and cries of Goody, goody! — except from naughty Baby Hazlewood, who pouted because she didn ' t like to go out in the rain. Bright and early next morning, happy indeed were fifteen gleeful little faces as they peered over the big white sheets and saw that their roommaties had already shut the windows and the sunbeam fairies were dancing over the 75-cent paper lamp shade bought by each and every one at Papa Guggenheimers ' . We ' re ofiE! cried fifteen little voices, as they rolled away in Uncle Rhea ' s big yellow chug-chug, and sure you ' re off— ' way off! echoed the merry winds as they whistled around the chimneys of Alumna Beth Hall. What a jolly ride the tot had, eating oranges and peanuts, and crowded in, seven to a seat, until finally — whoof! — they drew up in front of the big red buildings. Just like my papa ' s house in New York, said little Kitty Blount, and the gang roared merrily. Where ' s Tom? asked Janie Becker, and no one could answer but Betsy Rountree, who said, quick as a flash, He ' s incapacitated at present because of a dispensation of the sine qua non, which of course, is further exteriorated by an acclimation and velocity of the antebellum . . Rut by this time all the kiddies were far away. On and on they went, and, with the exception of little Danny Boone, who had playfully got locked into a padded cell in the Dangerous Ward, events went on with little mishap. Finally they came to the Hopelessly Imbecile Ward, and whom should they find there, chewing on sticks and counting happily on their fingers, but (Continued on page 95) n 3 TXe Lire ' s LlTTLC JOWeS—  p L ' ' °g° oQ ' Q JnJow nfHv Tabic 6od c ns v iCToRi nuSH RUSH, ., (AURORA ) rLlG(4T A ' ev R BftoK£ oRf (I) CAMfTBe-eiDS FOR THE THCSACH, (YiTe U 2 T E SNOOTy f I C ) ' i sasi s%€«ies®%9f s ©j« IT s s 8 8 Irt?

Harry, who has dropped from the North for a spe- cial — very special — visit, is being shown the beauties of the campus by Dorothy, and is trying valiantly to appear interested in the Foundations and oblivious to the stares of the girls leaning from Grammer windows. They, on the other hand, are trying to decide if he is as peculiar-looking as his picture, or vice versa. It will be a long time before Harry ventures South again. One of these moments when it would be thoroughly satisfying to murder one ' s room- mate. Mary has just gotten enough mail to keep her busy reading the entire morning — while Hazel, her r.m., after having stood in the mail line for a half-hour, draws a past- card from . unt Susie in Peoria. There is a decided need for better averages in life. Diplomatic relations. Betty is going to get a telegram through to Amherst by three-thirty or die in the attempt; meanwhile, however, precedence on the ' phone is held by four faculty members and two bus drivers. Betty ' s hopes of letting Jack know that he can come over this week-end are rapidly vanishing. The Earnest Worker. Maizie has helpfully volunteered to entertain her friends ' dates while the friends finish cleaning up the suite — and at the present her efforts seem to be successful. All too successful, when the girls come down and find the weaker sex disposed to talk of nothing but that cute little dark- haired . .

MISS TAYLOR Names Her June Court Bevv OF Briar Rosies Miss Ruth Taylor, of the dusky city, was today unani- mously appointed Queen of the June Court. This action was taken by Miss Taylor herself. She was charmingly modest about this, and took the honor with extreme grace. INTERESTING GENEALOGICAL DISCOVERY Her first official step was announce that the court would be composed of the first 57 sign- ing up for the honor — Every one a pickle, as she so grace- fully put it. She then conferred with her maid of honor, Miss Peggy Posey, concerning the cos- tumes. This is not official, but it is understood from good authority that the colors will be those of the American flag, the two Bunting sisters being train bearers. The pages are to be Pages 4.5 and 46 from the Book of Etiquette. This Court will be chosen at twelve, between next Sunday and Monday. Each member, as she joins the ranks, will be given a Ku KIux costume to don in order that none will be incriminated or no preference may be shown. Miss Ham Questioned As To Her Forebears One of our leading members. Miss Mary Mills Ham, while at- tending a social hop at one of the nearby schools, was ques- tioned concerning her lineage bv one of her partners. The ques- tion was couched in the follow- ing language: Pardon the familiarity, but are you one of the old Virginia Hams? En- couraged by this reference to the family smokehouse. Miss Ham tells us that she has written to Swift and Armour, asking for iiif rrmation about her ancestors, and will doubtless soon be able to prove that she is a direct de- scendant of Roger Bacon. ALUMNAE NOTES Virginia Whitlock, ex- ' 25, is ' tarting a promising season this inonlh with John Barrymore. She is a world-famous tragedienne. Lucy McKenzie, ex- ' 27, be- cause of many years of expe- rience, is now the head of a large tobacco firm in South Alabama. Success is assured. Gladys Park, ex- ' 26, has re- cently ' accepted a position as private secretary to Dr. Lummis, our former dean. Elizabeth Holtzman, ex ex ex, has been appointed director of athletics at one of our larger in- stitutions of physical education. Dorothy Jones, ex- ' 26, is at present taking a course in ap- plied photography. INAUGURATION OF THE CHIEF Following the departure of our Romeo, who has doubtless gone across the tracks to play before some other Juliet, we are pleased to announce the arrival of a new guardian, with a regular uni- form and everything. Chief, as he is already known to the general public, is becoming an essential member of our com- munity, and seems very inter- ested in the take-offs and go- group of short ings-on of college life. How to Hold Mrs. Lamb Pie (nee Sophie Lou Hall, ex- ' 27), is this year devot- ing her time to the writing of a sa ■s entitled. Husband. i9i ©2 S9i€ sai® les iss f s s J!; IS 5W 1 V Jf W «« €5 ass II 8 THE DAILY SWEET ANYTHING LAUNDRY LISTS BOOKS WORTH WANT ADS Sue Hager gave up Riithie Pratt for Lent. Great strides have been made in the general charm of a dozen or more members of the Fresh- man Class. Under ordinary circumstances we would be con- ceited enough to attribute this to S. B. influence. But we have found that the underlying cause is a book recently acquired, and entitled How to Become Attrac- tive in Six Lessons.  Last year we laughed at the lovebirds from Bill to Becky, but this year the goldfish (Stockton to Forsythe) are even funnier.    It has often been rumored that Sweet Briar is an Episcopal school, but now Kitty Peyton as- sures us that it is non-sectarian, because we are all girls. What does Kay Norris mean when she says that Mr. Martin ' s hands are nice to play with? The Ku Klux has a serious rival on the campus in the form of the Sigma Beta Kappa Beta Wu ' s; Peg Rcinhold being strongly suspected of being the main Fiery Cross.

' ? ' ,, |1 e ' l ir] ' 1 iM If How I Learned the Secret — You, Too, Can Change Your Whole Life LOOK! LOOK! LOOK! DON ' T put this down! It ' s not like all the rest. On the contrary — I knew I wasn ' t uo|y — 1 had discovered the use- fulness of Blue Jays — and it wasn ' t even neces- sary for my best friend to remain silent. How- ever, I lacked the indescribable something that marks us goils as knockouts! Why, every time I went to a dance 1 never got a chance to show what Arthur Mewry had done for me through the mail— Instead 1 got left so flat I felt like a phonograph record — and the flat-heads who passed me by must have had the milk of human kindness skimmed like S. B. milk— for they never offered a suggestion. But they say, A little child - — you know — and so, lo and behold, one day our little country cousin steps in town for a brief holiday — and here ' s where the change comes! He followed around a bit — sized ' em all up — and burst forth with the following: Gal, he says, you am ' such a nub. Course you would never win the Miss N. Y. in an At- lantic City parade, but with a few of these dar- ing dresses youd come purty nigh to lookmg like the rest. With that he tells me how sister Maria learned to make her Sunday-go-to-meeting rags from a magazine. So I embarked on a new correspond- ence course, praying it would bring me more suc- cess than the aforementioned ones. And I ask you — look at the result! Am I not the social success? What I have done any half-wit can do. Why, in a week I knew all the names of the new col- ors, and in a month, I personally and alone cre- ated a model that made Lanvin look like the color they named after him. Dressed in this little model, neat but not gaudy — me and the cousin stepped out. It was a per- fect miracle — all the uptown dames looked so far downtown that it would take all day to get there. And from that night since. I just can ' t meet the demands. As I said before, any half-wit can do it. So why don ' t you try? Don ' t miss this glowing op- portunity !

It was the night of the Big Show. For months she had been working out the double flip with him, had been planning for it — dreaming, even, of the moment when the music would suddenly crash and she would slip gracefully from her trapeze into his arms. And then — it happened! From the very first he seemed to fail to respond, seemed nervous and disinterested, even though she tried her best and turned somersault after somer- sault to catch his attention. But it was only at the final moment, when he deliberately turned aside and left her to fall through the air and hit with a dull thud in the sawdust, that she realized it to be something her best friend hadn ' t told her about. That ' s the insidious thing about it. If this girl had read advertisements and taken them to heart, she would have been spared endless humiliation. Be warned by her example.
