Davis and ElkinS
Reopened Today

Davis and Elk1ns college opened its
sixteenth session today with a most
satisfactory enrolment Not only will
the attendance from the local COM
munity be larger than ever before, but
there will be students from other coun :
ties in the state and from Maryland
and more distant states.
The faculty will practically be COM
plete the opening day, and will repre-
sent men and women Of special train
ing and ample experience for the work
to which they are called. Judging from
the number of inquiries from young
men there will be ample material for
the football team, and under Coach N.
C. Bowen, formerly star player on the
Carlisle Indian team, Davis and Elkins
should arise to it's former high class
records in athletic achievements. The
college is going in for the state cham
pionship in basketball.
The girls dormitory is receiving the
finishing touches, and when the old
girls return and the new ones come
they will find provided for them most
comfortable and home-like institution
under the supervision Of an expert
enced and sympathetic principal, Miss
Bertha May Johns, of the Department
Of Expression.

mess should require a nequal capacity
for brains hut because housekeeping
in the right way means worrying with
lot of annoying details, a woman is
inclined to believe for some reason
or other her job is the hardest" The
business woman l am quoting says
she rarely ever hears complaints from
wives who have graduated from bus
mess to housekeeping but she hears
on all sides the cry Of other women
who despise homework and who are
gradually building up for themselves
a wretched foundation upon which to
erect any solid structure of happiness.
"oh," crys the wife who dislikes
the washing of dishes and the sweep
ing Of floors and the cooking Of meals
II don't see anything in the world. I'm
running my hands. I'm becoming an
ugly drudge!!" "Fiddlesticks," says
the business woman. "How much of
the world does the business man or
woman see? There's precious little
scenery travelling past an office desk
and II perchance through some ocult
power, panorama of the worlds
wonders could be viewed from the
office window not ten per ceit Of the
business world would have time to
spend in gazing. Business doings are
conducted on much more serious ba-
sis than housekeeping affairs these
days and wese it not for the fact that
when man once gets wife he feels
duty bound to keep her, there might
come times when he allowed thought
to futter through his mind Just before
he dropped off to sleep which If trans
lated would run something like this:

Evening Chat
Mashed Potatoes and cIerIks.

There are two things which need
reforming in Fajrmont-mashed pota-
toes and clerks. I've tried to get
mashed potatoes in three different
restaurants in the city and have about
come to the conclusion that the old
time spud is no longer. AS for clerks
there are several here who refuse to
take one seriously. II you ask for
something they never heard Of, they
look you over as though to say,
Where did you come from anyway?
l wanted to buy an article in show
window today. The clerk at the far
end OF the store inside said she sup
posed 1t could be bought but she did
not know. Well. would she inquire, l
asked, seeing there was no other like
It inside. She said she would after
awhile-she had something to do first,
After she told the clerk next to her
she hadn't had a very good time the
night before at the dance and that
she had decided not to buy new suit
this winter, she discovered was still
waiting. "oh," she said Gust ask
that man standing in the front Of the
store about your article. l did. l
further asked why the clerks in that
particular store were so different-so
absolutely uninterested in the welfare
Of their customer or store. He said
Guess it's because we've got almost
an entire new force this week." and
smiled. What's wrong inquired
politely, my nose seeming news. ooh,
some of the last ones didn't like us
ard there were several we didn't like"
THAT'S so?" 1 ended prosaically, get
ting nowhere near the mystery. I'm
telling you, so if you have any like
experiences, you can tell me-and we
will write regular story about EN-.
AS for mashed potatoes, they aren't
mashed; that's my complaint. They
may have been shaken up bit. Or
somebody may have thrown the mash
er at 'em. But they're full of bullets.
And it isn't war time either. Are the
spuds or the Washers to blame-will
somebody please find out.
