Well, Well
Your just as good as gold,
The little maiden swore.
But now his gold is gone,
So he isn’t good no more.
With lipstick highly flavored
And shaving cream that’s sweet,
It seems that when you’re necking now
It certainly is a treat.

The Invasion
The student looking like a bear, r
Because he never cuts his hair,
Should not be gazed upon with scorn,
’Tis not his fault, his locks ain’t shorn.
For if you note, in every chair,
A barber cuts a eo-ed’s hair.
Before we liked to have to wait
For “HIM” to start to operate. ■
■ And chat with him who seemed to know,
What makes your hair refuse to grow.
Because you’d like to hear his slang—
Of jokes appearing in Whiz Bang!
But now, good lord, His yarns they bore!
Who cares what Mary Bickford wore?
Or Rudolph Valentino’s kiss,
Which thrills the heart of every miss.
Oh, lord, my locks will grow, I fear,
From day to day, from year to year,
Until the serpent men call style,
Decrees the girls grow hair awhile.

A Short Fable
Once upon a time a professor, very unadvisedly,
while lecturing in a co-educational instution of higher
learning asked the following question:
Are co-eds dumb?
The roof was taken off the rooms by the spon
taenity of the unanimous answer.
Moral—Girls, don’t be dumb.

“Not so dusty,” said the man on the water wagon
as he turned on another hose.
* * *
The absent-minded professor wrapped the news
paper around himself and settled down to read his
bath robe.

! The many functions held during
; the week indicate that the social
season is at its height. The spirit.
. of St. Valentine has been preval
! ent in practically all the affairs
| of the past few days, so that he
must be very happy over the re
sults of his birthday.
The first of the week was well
filled with the performances of
the Guild Hall play, “The Ideal
Husband,” the concert by Guy
Maier and Lee Pattison under the
direction of the associated stu
dents’ concert series and the Dime
Crawl at the College Side Inn on
Wednesday afternoon.
i Mrs. Louise Benson Oliver of Se
i attle, province inspector of Mu Phi
| Epsilon, national musical frater
j nity, has been the inspiration for
j considerable entertaining since her
! arrival here Friday noon. Active
members honored her with a din
ner at the College Side Inn, Fri
day evening, after which . a formal
business meeting was held, and
later Mrs. Oliver gave an informal
talk. It was decided at this meet
ing that Mu Phi Epsilon would
federate with the national organi
zation of music clubs.
On Saturday afternoon from 3
until 6, members of Mu Phi Ep
silon were hostesses at a large and
beautiful tea in Alumni hall hon

was presided over during the af
ternoon by Mesdames Anne Lands
bnry Beck, W. F. G. Thacher, Rose
McGrew, L. I). Pierce, and C. L.
Teshner.
Red carnations and other cut
flowers were used about the room.
Active members furnished the en
tertainment, each contributing
some musical number to the pro
I gram.
On Sunday, Mu Phi Epsilon held
initiation services for Mrs. John
Stark Evans, Mrs. Gifford Nash,
Harriet Baldwin. Wanda Eastwood,]
and Genevieve Phelps after which :
a banquet was served at the Os- j
burn hotel. Mrs. Oliver left Sun
