Alice at the Auction <<rpHE TIME has come,” the Walrus said, “to talk of many things—Of shoes and ships and sealing wax, of cabbages and kings.” But Alice in Wonderland is nothing compared to the student who will be confronted this morning by all sorts of the strangest combinations—things that properly should not be near neigh bors, all jumbled into the hodge-podge that will be the Women’s League’s auction of unclaimed articles. The collection has long been a source of great wonder to University lost and found department. One is sure to find indispensible articles whose owners have found them somehow dispensible, and dispensible articles which will develop the acquisitive instincts. So take pot-luck in the bidding on the library steps from 10 o’clock this morning untiL noon. ' “Chinese Night” 'p'lIE STUDENT body has learned to look forward to original expression of the foreign students in a social way, such as the activities of the Filipino students. Now the Chinese stu dents of the Coo ■opolitan club have announced “Chinese Night” for this evening at the Y. W. C. A. Bungalow, com pleted to the last detail, with discussions on Chinese themes, a Chinese dance, and the added inducement of Chinese food. American students know the zest of the “Arabian Nights” with a brooding Seherezade. Perhaps they will now find some thing new from the old, old days of the golden Han dynasty, or the spirit of Li Po and the other Chinese poets and philoso phers hovering near. Damsels in Distress ^^FTF.lt earnestly commending the gallant sport of fencing, heralding the new age of chivalry, or possibly finding an other occasion in which timorous young ladies are helped to helping themselves, The Emerald finds that women’s classes in fencing are suspended until sufficient equipment can be ob tained. This means sending to France. . . or something equally bothersome, to secure new foils. One is moved irresistibly to cry, “Foiled again!” (But the villain still pursued her). R. 0. T. C. DEPARTMENT RECEIVES AMMUNITION Ammunition for the University rifle teams has been received at the B. O. T. C. headquarters. This is the second shipment of ammunition to be received this year. There are 11.000 rounds of .22 calibre bullets in the lot, and it is expected that no more ammunition will be needed of this calibre this year. About 2.000 rounds are used on an average each week by the two rifle teams. The new shipment was received from the Benetia arsenal, near San Francisco. It is valued at approxi mately $90. B. O. T. C. officials be lieve that the new shipment of bul lets is of a superior quality to that used previously, because of more regularly bevelled noses.
