The Student MIRROR Good morning. It is with the greatest of pleasure that one sees one’s self in the mirror upon get ting up. * • *■ The aim of this little column is solely for your perusal. You may like it and you may not. Whatever decision you pass on it, remember that all actions of mankind are re flected, arid someone sees them. The library reserve room is a place where one text book defies the student body. • « • Jurgan was a monstrous clever fellow, says Cabell, the author. How many Jurgans have you in your house? • • • Here’s a Ben Hecht. It rains. More rain. A thinly clad woman stands under a faded parasol. In her arms she carries a package. Rain heavy and wet beats through her once fashionable parasol. Her face is heavily powdered. It was powdered. Now it is only white patches of powder. She shivers. A man comes out of the building. He looks around him. * He sees tho girl. Up goes his collar to keep the rain out. “For the love of Mike,” exclaims the man, “I couldn’t get that book in the library, twenty are ahead of me. Lot’s go to the College Side Inn.” “Let’s,” agrees tho Alpha girl. The rain swallows their figures. It rains harder. • * # A criticism of “The Bow Boy” by Van Vechten is at hand. It is a good criticism considering that it is impressionistic. Briefly the story is one of a boy who is put in tho hands of a worldly man to teach him the ways of the world. Tho boy Bees life and shrinks from it. Strange boy. Any freshman will tell of his conquests, and will not shrink. The grades of the profs come slowly and come exceedingly small. She looked at him with her big, soft, brown eyes and he looked back with his. But nothing could ever come of it for he was a simple country lad and she was a jersey cow. Never repeat that sentiment to your davenport partner because she might take it to heart. It never pays to get too serious here in col lege any way. The mortality rate on grand mothers will be torribly high this term. The formal season is upon us. A sophomore at his first formal.— Walks in (no other way to get in), dances nervously about. Wonders if Jim’s Tux coat fits without too much of the sack effect. Wishes A1 was not so Jong in the legs—con templates turning trousers up at bottom. Drops handkerchief; won ders if he can recover same with out having collar fall over head and cuffs slip down. Decides not to try.—Did this ever happen to you! We note with interest the great building activity on the campus, Not half as much interest as some one is going to have to pay how ever. The saddest words of tongue 01 pen; are these— I've got to take that course again. * • • In the rain a young man’s fancj often turns to the fireplace. When you look at yourself in the mirror in the morning what do you see? Your reflection. If it is young and fair now, what will it be ten years from now? • • • A certain professor tells ole] jokes in an old way, and he gets the laughs. The reason is that donkeys always bray when nothing happens. • • • Be in at ten-thirty tonight. Re member tho other fellow. R. E. C. Are Super-Intellectuala Superior?

Resides, this poor vision means that we only see a frac tion of the beauty of nature around us—and many such pleasures of life will be missed completely. ‘Qi.

Jim the Shoe Doctor 986 Willamette Street Phone 867 Hot Dogs vs. Tuna Fish The war between sexes continues even to the struggle over a “hot dawg” stand. College women are vieing with the men in the pat ronage and consumption of that | palatable culinary achievement. “Just about as many college wo men as men stop each day for hot dogs,”'"the proprietor of a stand on Willamette informed us. One sees several girls (the col lege woman believes firmly in the protection of numbers), nonchal antly saunter up and order. They lean their elbows on the blue glass counter, exchange comments, and watch with the eyes of a con noisseur the wieners sizzle. The bun is spit evenly and in this compartment three halves of wieners are slid. Mustard? O, yes, th0 process of garnishing is superintended and directed to suit the fickle palate of each maiden. They seize the delectable concoc tion and masticate with manifest enjoyment. Pedestrians who glanee curiously disturb not their poise. Sometimes a pleasant witticism is tossed to the proprietor as one de bonairly rolls the coins for pay ment toward the adept “hot-dog chef.” One could not convince the hot dog proprietor that women are los ing their freedom—that is a hang over from the war. Experts and psycho analytic ranks may rave on about women gradually returning to their powerful feminine weapon —dependency, but the fact remains that the more dangerous of the species is asserting her wishes and getting what she wants without qualms of conscience at the thought of Dame Grundy. “I guess they are not as timid as we think they are. I’ll bet they average a dozen or a dozen and a half daily. Along late in the after noon and after the first shows they come by, and stop—about half take their’s then, and the other half stay here and eat them.” Now that the lowly hot-dog has been taken under the tutelage of the feminine, it’s social status is achieved. It may appear as the crowning artistic effort of any meal. — for the emotional phazes of tradi tions all go to make up a meaning less, worthless collection of vile re action that simply must never be indulged in. You must know too, that there is no contentment, no happiness, no pleasure, and no corn plasters for the intellectual. Life’s problems and troubles must be borne as a heavy, but necessary load upon drooping shoulders—there is no re lief for the enlightened. If anyone argue with you simply insist that they define their terms, they will fail in this and you will be saved. Above all things do not keep your superiority to yourself; be earnest in your efforts to talk to people and in so doing be sure that you uBe long words, impress them with their own problems and IT’S SNAPPY PRETTY— DIFFERENT— 1 WITTY 1924 OREGANA with the eternal impossibility of solution. Cast everything aside as hopeless and then talk about it con stantly—then some day maybe you too can gather with the group and worry about other people’s com plexes.
