"Y" Starts Campaign For Money
Ghost. The Old Bus, Spir
Settles On 8
Plans to raise funds for a new Y bus
have been instituted by the Carolina
Christian Service Club, according to an
announcement made by R. G. Bell.
All former members of the organiza
tion have been asked to contribute. The
following poem, written by Mr. Bell has
been mailed to the alumni of the club:
YE OLD Y BUS
An ode.to Leaping Lena, how often you
have seen her,
Loaded with Lois, Sara, Dink, or Eu
genia,
Cox, Causey, Prince and guided by the
Browns,
As puffing and rattling, bravely she made
her rounds.
Industrial School Girls were glad to hear
her groans,
Old Soldiers at the Home welcomed her
weekly moans,
Alms House and Jail, The Blind and
Wilson's mill,
The long and weary hours for many she
did thrill.
Through the chilly night with Alton at
the wheel,
Just three hours from Clemson, with
many a rock and reel,
To Marion and Dillon, Cheraw and Ben
nettsville,
Pickens and Easley, Heath Springs and
Simpsonville.
She was borrowed by her frineds and
stolen by her foes,
She was twisted and battered as down the
road she goes,
Her engine head is cracked, radiator
holds no water,
Battery's gone dead, she does nothing
like she oughter.
So it's "Taps" now for Lena, broken by
her woes,
Her end at last she's reached, to sky she's
turned her toes,
So bury the old lady, her duty well she's
done,
An epitaph, "Rest in Peace," let's write
it on her stone.
But Lena has a daughter, so sleek and
nice and fast,
For Lena's job she clamors, that now as
in the past
Our service we can render to those who
need it most,
Of service truly tendered, of these things
we may boast.
Alas, indeed, it is too true, thai Lena is
no more,
And if we are to do the work that we so
much adore,
Lena's daughter must be purchased
with
With what? I don't know. It rhymes
wvith ready cash.
This advice wve have indicted, to you as
Lena's friend,
Reach down in your pocket, to this our
plea attend,
Pull out and mail us, at least a dollar
bill,
To bury our Lena and then her place to
fill.

The first reply to this effort came from
Alton G. Brown, graduate of the Uni
,ersity and student at the Medical Col
ege of South Carolina. It follows:
)car R. G., I'm broken-hearted to hear
That my old ' "Pal" Lena, whom we all
loved so dear,

low,
\nd gone to the Heaven where all good
Fords go.

he could climb the hills at sixty, seventy,
or more,

nd she never knew when her journey
would end,
Vhen one crowd returned to "dear old
Flinn Hall,"
knother would be waiting to answer her
call.
But then I wonder if she didn't get a
thrill
arrying good looking girls out to \Vil

Jr to many other places where they
wished to go,
ro give a helpful program and an enter
taining show?

Every bump she would take, I too it
would feel,
Ier greatest agony surely must have been
When Fincher, Lonnie, Wysong, and I
did all try to sing.
The old crowd has scattered, though
where I can't tell,
But I hope the new one is doing quite as
well,
In bringing the toothers, the service they
might give
For really, you know, it's the happiest
way to live.
My loalng days are over, I'm working
f.,r a change
And though it's quite hard, it doesn't
seem so strange,
To work from early morning to one or
two at night
Studying the human body, diseases and
their fight.
Did y'ou ever see a student wvho wvasn't
always broke?
If so please send him to me and I'll bor
row some or choke,
I wish that I were wealthy, I'd help you
with a will
But at present all I can do is send one
poor dollar bill.
Alton G. Brown.
Students Hear Wardlaw
Speak On How To Study
Declaring that not knowing how tc
study was the cause of many students
failing, Doctor Patterson Wardlaw, Dearl
Emeritus of the School of Education
madle an address in Freshman chapel
Wednesday morning on "Howv to Study.'
"Apportion your time so that you hiavt
a period for recreation and a period for
study. When the study period comes
around go to a quiet place and apply
yourself," continued Doctor Wardlawv.
"Try to become interested in the les
son. Study to learn and not just to gel
by. If a lesson is hard, "pitch" into it
Don't back out or baby yourself just be.
cause a lesson is difficult."
Doctor \Vardllaw suggested that the
student underline the important facts an<
make marginal notations. This wil
greatly facilitate studying for an exami
nation.

One. Waiter Figures He Ha
Poured Nine Tons Of Coffee
During Career
"I figure I have poured nine tons <
coffee since September," the coffee ma
at the University mess hall declared ri
cently.
This was hard to conceive. But aft<
a little thought it is credible, since aroun
25 gallons are consumed daily. Betwe<
50 and 75 pounds of sugar are require
to sweeten this amount of fluid.
It would take a large flock of hens I
supply the 12 dozen eggs needed evet
morning. And eggs are sometimes serve
at dinner and supper, too.
No less than 800 biscuits are eaten <
otherwise disposed of each night. To sui
plement this, the baker leaves 40 loaves
bread daily.
Irish potatoes, which frequently grai
the menu, are consumed at the rate <
one bushel per meal. Glass by glass, 1
gallons of milk are poured every mornir
to go on a dozen boxes of cornflakes at
brand.
A cow a day supplies steak and materi
for stew, meat loaf, and other combin.
tions.
Into able hands has been given the ri
sp-nsibility of distributing pineapple
gelatin, peaches, and apples by the gallc
and bushel.
"It depends on what I'm serving as I
the number of requests I have for sei
onds," the dessert man asserted. "I ai
not bothered as much with crackers
when we have other things." He intei
preted this to mean that crackers are n<
as desirabe as sonic of the other swee
that have been mentioned.
Lastly, 21 student waiters each work
minimum of three hours a day, making
total of no less than 63 hours a day f<
the entire staff.
