TODAy'S POEM
THE NICKEL

I. E. Haynes in the New York Mail,
0, here's to the nickel,
So shiny and bright,
That serves me so often
From morning till night.
1t takes me to business,
Or blackens my shoes;
1t pays for smoke,
Or provides me with news.
When / go to the movies
1t takes me- inside;
If I. travel by jitney
1t pays for the ride.
It's tip for the waiter,
The barber or kid
Who brushes my clothes
And then hands me my lid.
1t quenches my thirst,
Or it buys me a stew
1t sure beats the deuce
What a nickel will do.
So heres to the nickel,
Let loud praises swell
To this wonderful coin
That has served me so well.

seph \. Pipal may not return as
coach at oregon Agricultural College

three faculty and five student repre-

resignation. The action will come as
a surprise to the public, particularly
in view of the victory scored by Cor
wallis this year over the University OF
