We are not going to mention the co-eds this time; they make themselves heard without any helpn Did the Ed in Co-Ed come from Eden? Since the co-eds do not like to be called co-eds, we<suggest wo men studentes. Note the "e." After pork chops were served for dinner the following dialogue was heard: (In French room) Oui, oui. (In Latin room)-Sui, sui. A fitting remark from the Co Ed Department: "The gym suits are most becoming, indeed, and Prof. Blackburn is to be envied, perhaps."--So are those who were on the third floor balcony. A SUGGESTION. Sometime ago a committee was appointed from the student body to act in conjunction with a com mittee from the faculty in rebuild ing the fence around Davis Field. This committee has been very ac tive, but has been unable to make much progress due to the present finan-cial stringency. W,, believe it is now time for the rtudent body to take some defirite action. The baseball sea son vill soon be on, and then a fenco will be almost imperative ly nieded. We cannot use the league park since the Columbia professionals will have that. It has been suggested that the advisory board borrow the mon ey to rebuild the fence. and give a mortgage on a certain percent age of the net receipts of the sue ceeding athletic contests. In this way no one student body would have to hear all the expense. What About This! The magazines are full of most interesting articles and illustra tions on the European war. The November number of World's Work appears as a Second War Manual. Illustrated London News has fine pictures and LIl lustration reflects the French sentiment. The Sunday New York Times also has excellent illustrations. There are invid ious distinctions in the great mass of magazine literature on the subject. Th.' magazines can not go out, but t ie lights are good, the seats corn f'rtable, the room warm, and there is every reason andl induce ment for students being well poste i on bo0th sides of the ques tion Khat is tearing Eu r>pe and the w orld asunder.

" 'The mind can make a heaven of hell or a hell of jheaven,' said the great poet Milton, in stating one of the fundamentals truths of life. This is true today. A man's attitude of life is dependent on himself. All of us have many things to be thankful for: some have riches, others have happy and cheerful dispositions. But above all we should he thankful for Jesus Christ." So said Rev. K. G. Finlay, pas tor of Trinity church, in address ing the Y. M. C. A. on last Wed nesday evening at t he special Thanksgiving service. Any age is to be thankful for in just so much as it has opportunities for service to mankind, continued the spea ker. As college men we should be thankful for the opporturities en joyed here. In the University we have a chance to develop oursel ves and to train for service. "We should thank God for this age of open doors for good to our selves and benefit to others. This is an era of many blessings and of many opportunities. While the nations of the world are in strife and want we rest secure in peace and plenty. Now we have not only reasons to be thankful, hu ;oppor tunities to show the blessings of Jesus." Mr. Finlay gave a short but impressive address. Every man felt that the talk wac helpful. As a Freshman Saw It. In the early days of the pres ent session a freshmran standing in front of the gymnasium asked a fellow classman: "Have you seen this here game they call football? How do you like it?" The other newcomer replied, "Well they just line up in front of one another, and then a red headed, red-faced fellow runs up and says "Hike!," and they all jump in and fight one another until he te them to quit." 9 it be a pleas ipe o' a real Ltucky Burley, she gave it combined with a mildness VELVET, The Smoothest le Lure (the richest leaves of y more than 2 years' ageing. gs.
