| Miss.
| Great weeping and wailing prevails
| among the ranks of the main politi-
clans of the literary societies at Wash
| burn this fall. The faculty has issued
an edict that there are to be no open
ing receptions for new members. This
will of course leave many homesick
new students to wander unnoticed on
the campus during the first few days,
/ for not only has the reception been
abolished but also no pressure is to be
used to persuade the new student to
place his or her heart with either So
ciety. So that. where heretofore the
little freshie has been made to feel,
at least until he has Joined. that he is
the most wonderful person in the
world only it took the wisdom of the
COLLEGE students to find out what his
stupid home folks had overlooked. now
he may roam the campus, homesick
and neglected until the days arrive
when the societies may solicit his
m EN- bership.

That it is a physical impossibilty
for man living at the City Y. NJ. c.
A. house to remain in town after be-
ing married has been proven by the
attempt made by Mr.. Wayland Chap
man, who was married on the very
quietest Tuesday night and took all
precautions to publish the item that he
item did not have the much desired
effect of throwing the bridegroom's
friends off the track. for in the calm
still night up slipped the solicitous
friends to beautify the dove cote at S15
Monroe street. This morning when
the wise ones sailed forth with happy
smiles thinking how they would be
unmolested by their friends who, of
Colorado. they were greeted by gor-
geous signs firmly stuck to the sides of
the house bearing pretty little mottos
such as: I'VE live on love-" Gust SIC
bother US. we are married"
