Look at my wife,
Scourge of my life,
Curse of mankind and me.
She takes my money
To be like honey
And blasts my hopes that be.
She is no blessing,
For by her dressing
She worries and ruins me.

On last Saturday night about twenty
reshman Co-eds were entertained with

en's Building.
The invited guests including only
hose "rats" who were so gullible as to
ay their hostesses, five upperclassmen,
en cent each Saturday morning for
pecial reservation's of much desired
:hapel seats. The rats gathered in
'Seldom Inn" at nine o'clock and were
velcomed with an extemporaneous and
reatly interrupted address by Miss
elle Evans, the disconnected theme of
vhich seemed to be "green ribbons."
Refreshments consisting of candies
md cakes were served and later a pro
ram was given by the hostesses.

endered several delightful ukelele se
ections. Miss Marguerite Johnson and
iss Delle Evans debated the timeworm
uestion," Resolved that it's more thrill
ng to kiss a baldheaded man than a
nan with a moustache." Both sides fur
iished conclusive proofs so it was un
nimausly voted that it din't matter so
long as the "victim" was a man. Miss
ouise Thomas closed the program with
i address of warning to the lowerclass
nen not to be "taken in " any more. The
vent was greatly enjoyed by all present
id was voted a success.
Among those partaking of the hospi
ality of Miss Thomas, Hough, Johnson,
aker and Evans were: Misses Elber

night and carried off her stunt as if
she'd had plenty of practice as far as
knowing how it ought to be done.

So far the library basement has been
noticeably vacant and we wonder if it is
because the "other door" is now left
open.

A FLAPPER AND FRIEND
Crawford believes love is like a game
of cards, with a good deal depending
upon a good deal and a lot depending
upon the kind of hands you hold.
A flapper and her Nabisco Nibbler
friend entered a local resturant here the
other day, the flapper proceeding to
order the limit of the menu at the ex
pense of the Nibler's purse.
Shortly after they had seated them
selves, a couple of the steady type came
in and took seats at a nearby table,
ordering sandwiches and tea for their
lunch.
This so incensed the flapper that she
turned to her friend and said "I wonder
who those ordinary people are and what
they can mean by coming to a swell
place like thi at lunch time and order
ing sandwiches and tea," in the one
thoughtful mood of the month the
"Nibbler replied," "I don't know who
he is, but I'm sure she came straight
from Heaven."

bestowed upon him is to serye on the "Y"
council.
"If you ever feel homesick," "contin
ued Mr. Smith, "go down to Flinn Hall
and talk with Mr. Bell." And another
thing I want to urge you all to do is to
go to Blue Ridge at least one summer
while you are in college. You'l remem
ber this trip as long as you live."
W. A. McSwaiai told of the great re
sponsibility of the students in upholding
the honor principle. As the 121 class at
the university he urged' the men to keep
the standard high. "Every man is a
gentleman until he proves himself to
be otherwise," concluded Mr. McSwain.
Rising to the floor, Mr. Bell, "Y" sec
retary, aimiounced the climax was reach
ed. His subject was the campue course.
Among the campus courses, he "slapped"
were booze, gambling and idleness. He
outlined the danger of these courses, not
only to the indulgers, but to the boys
who are constantly thrown with them.
"The real campus course is what I want
to recommend to you. The first consid
eration is your actual clasroom work.
then the sudent activities, including the
literary societies and Y. M. C. A. work.
You will get more out of college life if
you put more into it."
The "Big Brother of Carolina," Dr.
Isadore Schayer, was the next speaker.
In a way, peculiarly is own, he made a
heart to heart talk-full of advice and
warning to young men. "You are away
from home now. You are free from
your mother's apron string, and your
dad's 'Don't do this'. You don't hear
your mother's vioce calling to see if
that is you coming in, or the silver
haired dad to say, 'Better be careful son.'
"You have your freedom, but it is the
hardest, most difficult, possession you
will have while at the universtiy. Be a
gentleman as well as a man."
Dr. Schayer told of the daAigers of
liquor, gambling and immorality. "You
can't beat the game-it will ruin your
character- it will make a crook out of
you." He told of many wrecked lives
lie had come in contact with, and the sad
words uttered-often too late- "My
God I Why did I do it?"
Short talks were made by Reese Joye,
who had the cards passed around for the
boys to join the "Y", and by Harold,
DeLorme who will be Mr. Bell's assist
ant this year.
The singing of the Alma Mater con
cluded the program.
The supper was prepared by a com
mittee of the University Auxiliary,
wives of the faculty members, and served
by 15 co-eds. The Carolina colors were
carried out in the decoations and un
shaded candles cast a cherry glow over
the room.
