The .local student chapter offers an opportunity for students of chemistry and chemical engineer ing to become better acquainted, to secure intellectual stimulation that arises from professional asso ciations, and to secure experience in preparing and presenting tech nical material.

His talk will be one of a nation-wide series sponsored by the Institute of Paper Chemistry to promote a better understanding of the field of chemistry in the paper industry. All chemistry majors and chem ical engineers are invited to hear Dr. Wiley. Cai Taken from a paper in English camp: "A morality play is one in which the characters are goblins, ghosts, virgins, and other super natural characters." Frank: "They say Tom's wife had triplets after reading 'The Three Musketeers'." Will: "Good heavens, mine was reading the 'Birth of a Nation' when I left." She's just like an apartment house. Every time you move up, she has a new story. "Waiter, there's a splinter in my cottage cheese." "Well! what do you expect for a dime, the whole cottage ?" Doctor: "I'd like to have a quart of blood for a transfusion, can Syou give it?" Student: "I can only give you a pint. I gotta shave tomorrow." He: "You go to bed, and I'll wash the dishes." She: "Those paper dishes won't stand another washing." He: "What do you say I erase them tonight?" A pullman passenger on a streamliner had finished shaving, etc., and returned to his berth when he discovered he'd left his toothbrush In the washroom. Ifgtrying back to retrieve It, he found another man using it. "Say," he told the man, "that's my tooth brush you're using." "Oh, I'm sorry,". exclaimed the fellow. "I thought it belonged to the car."

Delivery Man Pictured from left to right are one of her paintingts which has juE delivery man for the Extension DI John Bennet I From Carolina By GUS MANOS Feature Editor "Anybody that wants to be somebody ought to like a nice picture." At least that is the philosophy of John Bennet, 66-year-old delivery man for the Extension Division. John's love for "nice pictures" came to light recently when he walked into the Art De partment in Barnwell and an nounced to a surprised group of students that he wanted to buy a painting. That was not John's first visit to the Art Department, though, for he had made many stops there to deliver the mail and "fillum" from his wheelbarrow. Every time he paused to admire "the pretty pictures all around." He had al ways wanted a painting for his home, and so after nine years at the University he had finally made his decision. The selection of a painting for John did not take too long, for he already had an idea of what he wanted. After looking over a number of works, he finally settled for a brilliant, multi-colored oil done by Jackie Stackhouse, an art major from Columbia. The trans action marked the first sale and the first purchase for the artist and the buyer. One could see, however, that John was not going to be satisfied npus Hun Mrs. McTavish (looking out the window): "Sandy, here comes company for dinner." McTavish: "Quick, everybody run out on the porch with a tooth pick." There's a story been going around the faculty about the absent-minded professor and his absent-minded wife. It seems that the professor had just returned from a hard day's work, and after dinner he and his wife settled down in the living-room to enjoy the radio. Suddenly there was a sharp knock on the door. "My husband!" the absent-minded wife gasped. "My God!" said the professor, and jumpedl out the wvindow.

Buys Painting Jackie Stackhouse, art major, with it been purchased by John Bennet, vision. 3uys Painting Art Major with only one painting in his home. No sooner had he made his first selection than he began surveying the other paintings on the wall with a critical eye. Of one un comprehensible abstract John said, "I likes dat fine, but I seen a lots I could like a lot better." As he went from painting to painting, talking all the time about pretty pictures, he revealed his simple love for art. When asked what type of picture he likes best, he replied, "I like nice pictu'res, but I don't exactly know what kind I likes best. I likes all nice pictures." lie began talking of how he wanted to have "nice pictures" in his home to show his friends. "I like a nice flower garden," he said, "that's how I like pictures." Just then the bell rang, and John, with thanks pouring from his lips, excused himself and hastened back to work with his new prize tucked proudly under his arm. "Good heavens, Billings," shouted a frat man to a brother, "your tongue is colored black tonight!" "Yes," was the reply, "I dropped a bottle of Scotch downtown where they're tarring the street." ior Three Members Of English Dept.
