SOME IFS
Just think what a typical April fool's
day
If the soberstaid faculty should get
very gay,
If the extension Director should loaf
and not work,
If Dr. Wardlaw should plain duty
shirk,
If the treasurer's office should ever go
broke,
If Mr. Crow could not get cigars to
smoke,
If Professor Derrick were not in a hur
ry,
If calm Dr. Douglas should get in a
flurry,
If Professor Keith should cease being
polite,
If the faculty Reverends should stage
a prize fight,
If the Canteen could ever get out of the
hole,
If the campus were free from the poli.
tical role,
If students delighted Dean Baker to
face,
If letters were welcome from Regi
strar Chase,
If Dr. Reed Smith should begin to use
slang,
If Dean Dillard said, "darn, I don't
give a hang,"
If neighbors returned the things that
they borrow,
If students would never put off till to
morrow,
If libraries found all the books that
they lose,
If "Mother Mid" let the girls do as
they choose,
If the system of honor worked just as
it should,
If no one compiained of the beds or
the food,
If pluto and pills at the Infirmary gave
out,
If the fat should get thin and the thin
should be stout,
If chapel exercises would be irterest
ing once,
If tests and exams did not prove one
a dunce,
If someone Dr. Snowden's black cape
would dare swipe,
If Dean Ball should misplace his he
loved pipe,
If Dr. Currell in language quite simple
should speak,
If Dr. Dr. Wauchope's manners were
not so meek,
If classes were scheduled, but not to be
met,
If cars were not 1i'rked where stu
dents might pet,
If half of the jokes that we laughed at
were funny,
If the General Assembly would grant
lots of money,
If all of the campus could have its own
way,
Just think what a typical April Fool's
Day.

-Kipfing's "Mandalay"
ELEPHANTS
'he elephant is man's most intelligent helper.
aut-consider this interesting comparison:
Ln elephant is much larger than the electric
iotor of a "yarder" or logging machine. The
yarder" has the power of twenty elephants; it
andles clusters of logs; it works dependably,
venty-four hours at a stretch, if necessary.e
wenty elephants would eat daily 10,000 pounds
r green food, which a corps of attendants must
ather. A motor "eats" nothing but electricity,
Lipplied at the throw of a switch.
'ower used in the modern industrial world is
pplied through electric motors-tireless "iron
lephants" that are relegating antiquated ma
bines to museums, along with such oldtime
ousehold articles as wash-tubs and ordinary
ons-and stuffed elephants.
