HARRY STOTTLE sez - Only 349 more shopping days 'til Christmas Judging from the number of early arrivals after the holidays, we've come to the conclusion that quite a few of these high, wide and fancy college boys think that the home town is a nice place to fly over in an airplane but a .helluva place to run out of gas. Don't throw away that Christmas necktie--keep it and use it for a lien wiper. Now these aren't exactly our own sentiments, but we heard one of our friends say, "a woman feels exactly toward a needle as she does a man when either is "broke" they're passed their period of "usefu1ness." Now you see why so many of us collegiate "Din Lights" were out of circulation dur ing the Yuletide festivities. Blow your nose Henry, your ears are out of line. Now, that's a nice boy. You know Henry? Well, well, well, he ain't so bad after all. His main weakness is 0. P. (other people's) liquor. He hasn't any limit on that core (to my knowledge), but will consume just any GIVEN quantity. Henry certainly has a swell line of "Jaw Music." When offered a drink of ? the other night he readily developed a spirit of al most lascivious mirth and with an air of ponderous jocularity said, "I would fain triffle with another bottle of that Mussolini Rye," then whooped and guzzled it down with this bright dig: "Well, it's grand of a couple of dress suit swells like you to assassinate with me 'mid the midmosts of sartorials and sassiety." There is no greater happiness than to have the girl of your dreams where you can kiss her by merely turning around ; and no greater luxury than not to turn. TIf we could see ourselves as others see us-we'd probably get disgusted and quit looking. Who is he that will gaze, bemussed. on an old wax candle from which the light has long since gone out? Men are interested in keeping, financially. only those women who are able to keep them mentally. And when the chin and years alike are doubled, music dear ladies, may remain always music; but there's no law against playing a new tune now'n then. Ninety-eight per cent of the complaints about the food served in poorhouses comes from those who couldn't possibly lose "Geor gie." We could call some monickers but we're -far too busy to get bullish with a buzz-saw. But the Scotchman said he didn't like the cork-tip cigarettes, 'cause he didn't like the smell of burning cork. The "Great South Carolina Comedy" -composed of members, possessing great ability as "Spanish Atheletes," from all over this old state, is nowv be ing performed, we should say stumbled through, daily on Tuesdays, Wednes days, Thursday and Fridays of each week. This is a very old stock com pany and their annual shows, held in the State House, are about as delight ful as sitting next to a fish peddller at Friday night's show. Never in all this world is nman en tirely devoid of his animal instincts. i. e. "First Night" performances. We hope you liked the .show. This fact was brought forcibly to our attention at the beginning of the holidays. After the usual hello-how are-you hooey, the home town is about as numb as ever. Some women can't take a joke'-.just look at some of the men who should be (would if they could) married, but aren't. And we aren't talking Old Carolina Man Makes Flying Visit Isadore Polier, who will be remember ed as editor of The Gamecock and The Carolinian atnd who is now a practising lawyer in Cambridge, Massachuesetts, returned to Columbia New Year's Eve on a ilying visit. Mr. Polier was accompaning by his bride, also of Cambridge, to whom he was married upon his return to Massa cheusetts from his visit to Columbi-' last September. t r. Polier remained only long enoug' to greet a few of his old fellow students, all of whom welcomed this opportunity to wish him much happiness for the future. --usC Marble Top Table Added to Library A handsome marble topped table is among the latest additions to the vesti.. bule of the University library. This valuable antique was discovered by professor Kennedy, librarian, among the little used possessions of the Euph radian literary society. On Mr. Ken nedy's request, the president of the society consented to allow the table to >e overhauled and placed in the library. The design is a modification of the Chippendale, in which three curved pieces of nahogany form the legs anil an ornamental support for the marbh top. Gambling Discussed At Uni.
