He Went Straight Home.

=
A week. before the Christmas holt
days a Princeton undergraduate who
lived in Chicago, wished to start home,
thus gaining a weeks vacation on the
other students. He had, however, used
up all the absences from recitations
which are allowed, and any more with
out good excuse would have meant sus-
pension. In a quandary he hit upon a
solution and telegraphed his father the
following message:
Shall I come home by the B. & o.
or straight home?"
The answer he received read: "Come
straight home"
An exhibition of the telegram to tn.
faculty was sufficient.

developed a serious illness when tar
from home in a little town in Oregon.

asked to see her. She was thinfi angu-
