k 'W' J < A ???*????????#????*#????*#???##??## Girls Suffer In< InDamas C 4 There is one time during the year that girls are made to come djown off their dignity and obey the whims of the powers that be. Last week fifty-eight initiates of the Damas Club were made to run the gauntlet, blow mouth-organs, wash clothes, sing songs and in general made to feel insignificant and small. Wednesday a regular fashion display of pajamas paraded the campus to the music of harmonicas. And there were at least "57 varieties" of pajamas., Sailor suits with anchors appliqued on them, overalls with the shoulder straps crossing in the back, a lounging suit of yellow boasting a tinger-tip toat, and many other picturesque styles were worn. The pajamas showed off the advantage the red rat cap which adorned each girl's head. The girls looked so pretty with their hair down (and many of them have beautiful long hair ^hat does not appear quite so lovely when it is pinned up) that it was decided that they should wear no make-up. A convention of washer women was hcjd on the campus Thursday. Half a hundred of them met at the wall at 12 o'clock and demonstrated their work to the spectators gathered there. Lively spirituals sung in. loud voices accompanied their work. It is rumored that two of these washer women went into a classroom singing their wares. Ask some of the new Damas members how they enjoyecf turning sumersaults holding, an egg in their hand. But after the Christmas Ball ask her if this burlesque of a dancer in a lovely evening dress carrying a vanity case as she glides across the Hoor, wasn't worth it. u. 8. o.
