When Pandora opened that traditions box to satisfy her idle curiosity, she subjected this old world to a multiple of stings, and tho the butterflies of hope soothed away a part of the pain, some of us still rely on the dictionary as the only refuge of Happiness. This old planet is the hang out of a lot of birds who go round looking like advance agents for a hard winter. Its no use to tack the lids on your own coffin-there will be a lot of idle onlookers handy when that tearful occasion is pulled off, besides, who wants to be the sole mourner at his own fu n eral. In your mad rush to the sun, dlon't overlook the stars and lesser planets-they are worth consideration. We know a lot of profession als who grope blindly around, hiding the sunshine of today under the clouds of tomorrow. Don't waste time seeking contentment somewhere else Happiness isn't a place, its just a state of mind. DISCOVERY OF NEW FLOWER ON CAMPUS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) assumes its Jumbo like reality. At the last few meetings there have been quite a good many distractions. There is one especially playful rat-at least twelve miles long that scampers here and there in search of nourishment or amusement. He must get the latter if- he appreciates fear (all donations towards a means of capture will be gratfully re ceived.) Then too-footall practice draws a number to the window until they they are sharply told to "fall in" by the hard hearted instructor. A few meetings ago one of the boys staying on the campus in his .eagerness to taste the forbidden pleasure of witnesssing a meeting of the Bloomer Society-fell from his hidden perch in the little win dow at the top of the Gym. He was saved from serious injury by being caught in a hair net. Instead of being grateful to his life-saver he sho .ved a spirit of revenge by hiding the basket ball up in his room. When it was returned it was partially filled with tobacco which caused such epidemic of sneezing that the meeting hasti ly adjourned. The class really is accom plishing wonders. The girls all feel better and have become so strong that they pulled the oar locks up from the floor screws and all-and are on the road to being called Amazons. So you who say "they didn't do that when I was a girl"-just smile and realize that " the old order changeth and giveth place to the new"-a healthier one. Track Team Organized.
