tied behind their backs, were driven off

the next street, perhaps.
Turning past the Musee de Cluny one
morning | came suddenly on a number of
prisoners hemmed in by company of
lanclers. There were thirty or forty,
some in their shirt sleeves, with hand
kerchiefs knotted loosely around their
bare threats, most of them With their
clothes torn; there were faces fierce and
defiant, faces stolid and indffferent-one

Unconsciously my eye rested upon the

man without coat or hat; the sun shone

There was no terror in his white face,
only stern determination. He looked at

dull clang of arms and the awful pro-

Seminary Students Rebel Against :
"TrickIe" Diet and are Expelled.

There are score of vacant desks
at the male seminary at Table
quah today, and if the stories Of
their late occupants are to be be.
lieved there are score of juvenilt
appetites that are satisfied this
morning for the first time since
the institution opened.
This strange feeling OF. full con-
tentment. came with the depositing
of two score of Juvenile feet, once
more. beneath the we'll covered
boards Of mothers table.
The causes for the exodus from
the temple of learning are given
by the retiring students as follows:
"Trickle" is the principal count
in their indictment against the de-
serted institution. and "trickle"
smears the pages Of their mournful
story from "kiver To kiver."
Their Introduction to the ubiqui-
tous "trickle," they claim, occurr-
ed on the day of their arrival at
Tahlequah, and "trickle" stuck to
them throughout heir stay, despite
their report to the authorities that
"trickle" was persona non grata.
They claim that "trickle" as
counterpoise to assorted lines of
booklore unbalanced them COM
pletely. While their heads were
developing bumps in spots their
anatomical equator was sinking
inv ard toward the spinal par
allel Of longitude.
"Trickle" ad nauseam, they |
claim, reigned supreme, when the
gong did sound thrice daily for
their assembling a. their festive
board.
A few "sinkers" moulded in ag- !
gravatinR form. like unto mothers
bi scuits, skulked amongst the ar
ray Of "lrickle." but naught else

A petition to the faculty resulted
n reprimands that failed to fill

ion followed. An ultimatum was
issued to the pedagogues, TO wit:

sorted to the stage, that bumps to

FASHION LETTER
(From the Sunday Papers,

1t has been said-and said with g
| strong suggestion Of satire-that the
human individual is composed Of three
parts, soul, body and clothes. Whether
or not this kind of pluralism is satisfac.
tory to the philosopher. it is at all events
a very convenient mode Of analysis. II
emphasizes what the dualist and the
monist both neglect-the importance to
man Of his clothes. If one stops to con-
slider the Offices OF clothing, one is aston
ished to find what small part utility
plays in its making and how mu!tiform
are the social functions which it fultills.
The present spirited discussion of the
shirt waist for men is a case in point.
Even the most urgent claims Of utility
and comfort must wait upon the pleas
ure of custom and tradition. Try to
imagine what clothing would be today
if it were not fashioned by social custom
and usage. 1t would be altered only to
suit the weather or the employment of
the individual.
Whatever primitive man thought OF
clothing, whether he bothered his head
over it much or little, We have to confess
that homo sapiens at his highest level
of development spends much Of his time
worrying over the adornment of his
body.
1t is a somewhat ugly truth that our
souls and our bodies show pretty nearly
what we are, while our clothes declare
what We should like to be. IL the flesh
is pink and the limb is round, il the spir-
it is pure and the conscience clear. we
don't mind bit going on parade. There
is a delicious satisfaction in letting
others mark our good points. But when

their graces We hasten 10 retire. Or
