Innocent Bystander By I’ MiNKV CLARK The other a.m. we'r.re toddlin down Alder St. when there is fearsome clatter of machinery b< I hind us and Bob “Fun For TI: Kiddies" Lucas grinds to a sto alongsid e Poking his addled pat ■ from under the canopy of his ti r goose he orates: “How’s about doing a column fc the pub. edition?” "Ha," say we, bitterly, "I ain * been nowhere.” Lucas is nonplussed. (This i practically an hourly occurrence. Finally the great mind pulls ou the lucky number. “Do it anyhow, he quips, and flits off into the sun shine. (HIS work for the day i praclically done.) So B. Clark continues to trudg down the drag, thinking furiouslj and finally pulls a little advice t< freshmen out of the hat: 1. Do not annoy Mrs. Sehwering This is nearly always fatal. Th Dean is equipped to chop off head I with ease and dispatch, and if yoi ain't feched in the haid you won’ monkey with a buzz-saw. 2. Don't call fraternities “frats.’ A few innocents, including Sigm Rassmussen, have tried it. but, th< 0 general consensus of opinion scoop if to be that it indiontes (ho Coot 1 Hollow influcnee.

A] Neilson. et j nl- Play ball with the rest of the ■ boys but don't, get serious about the business. That way lies mad ness. 7. At last comes a. few words about what is laughingly called your studies. Some of our local in structors have plenty on the ball. . and it’ll pav you to scout around and find out who thev are. From our own experience Harold Noble. Hr. Rebec, Lance Hart. Victor P. Morris, and Stevie Smith are all good bets. Don’t coast through all four years. You’re spending a lot of time and a lot of gold for book lamin’, and you might, as well carry some out with you. You’re paying for it! All well, kids, that’s enough for today. Papa Clark will now don his knee-action B“ard and retire gracefully into the ackground. This new fall suit is run through the courtesy of the men clothiers ill this edition of the Emerald.

In addition to regular FPRA aid there are several other mediums on and about the campus through which needv students find work and sufficient help to send them through college. The TTniversitv employment service, in charge of Miss Janet Smith, and the coopera tion of Pueene townspeople have been consistent sources of employ ment. for these students. No more is it a foregone conelu sion that college invites or toler I 31 fites only those with money.
