if 1 don't watch out, somebody will
beat my time. Now that we've set
tied who is to do the deed, l suggest
that it be done before chapel, next
Wednesday morning.
IL
The following Wednesday, Bill,
Tom, Windshield, Sam, and Tub.
walked into chapel together, and look
ed as unconcerned as if they had
nothing on their minds but their
scroggly pompadorers.
But hardly was they seated when
chapel was called to order by the
President. He then said that he had
discovered that secret society eX-
listed in violation of the rules of the
school. He was about to read the
names, when he said, "This list con-
tains six names. The society only
contained five members. The sixth
one is what is usually called a "pimp."
He was in an adjoining room and
overheard the others plotting. l am
going to punish all six equally. The
men whose names shall read will
know which he is. You will not, and
will never know, because if l hear of
his name being given out, shall
make the punishment of the first the
more severe. All six of the men
must bear the action of pimp. Will
the members of the faculty please sit
in front, and will Bill Buckly, Jones
White, Thomos Wendell, W. S. Jones,
Samuel Butler and Tobias Jackson,
please come forward and occupy the
faculty seats"
With sober faces the six took the
seats assigned to them. The heart of
each Of them beat mighty low. For
a few minutes they were lectured to,
but at the regular time, the prayer
started. The Chaplain seemed to
speak more eloquent than usual. To
the waiting boys, the minutes died
exceedingly slow.
At 1915 first bell was heard to
ring overhead, and just as the Chap
lain was praying that the thought
less boys with as little respect for the
faculty should get their just deserts
several fine streams of water came
down from the ceiling. And not until
the last drop had fallen, did the Chap
lain get through.
Oxford eagle. (Oxford, Lafayette Co., Miss.) 1876-current, 1920-03-18

"Now don't get cold feet now that
you have suggested it. You know
that it is absolutely safe. The fac
ulty doesn't know thing about oul
little society. Even if they should get
out on us, what does that matter
Certainly ministers sons alliance
souls harmless enough. 1t looks alb
solutely proper for the sons of Meth
odist ministers to have club, we'll
say foY mutual development and Bible
study. You just leave it to me and
there will be absolutely no cause tc
worry.
"You don't suppose that part of the
apparatus should fail to work right
or that something might go wrong
"For Grips sake, let up, Sam

what them"
Butler, you are gettin to be almost
as much Of baby rs Windshields,
you are even worse. At least he can
suggest something to relieve the
monotony, even if he does always
want to back out later. Isn't that so,
Toni"
"Sure, hut don't fuss like such lit
tie children. l havn't time to listen
to you. l am sure that there is no
chance for anything to go wrong.
there's always fifteen minute prayer
in chapel, and they always commence
praying at twelve-ten sharp. Now, If
we set the alarm for twelve-fifteen,
we are sure to get them. The holes
are already bored in the ceiling, the
tub is up there. The only thing left
to do is to fill the tub with water,
connect the clock to properly, and set
it." He carefully drew a diagram,
showing the other boys exactly how
it worked.
"Ye-s, very good so far" drawled
out Tubby Jackson, "But who's going
to do all this? It's just about time
that Pm having my say in this con-
versation anyway. You can fit othel
things up to suit yourselves, but ]
don't intend to be made the goat like
l was when we spiked the Goods
punch. l had to pay for it, and do
it both. l done my part, already. l
nearly got caught too. Somebody
else will have to do this. don't in
tend to-"
"Can that chatter, Tubby, we all
know you've been very much imposed
upon! And anyway, have decided
to bestow that great honor upon
Windshield to reward him for sug-
costing this idea."
"No-, No, can't. Why, if /
should get caught, what would l do.
Papa wants me to be a preacher, and
if should get shipped, / never could
be one."
ooh, dry up, or I'll die laughing.
YOU a preacher! you ought to be
ashamed of yourself for making fun
of our fathers by elassing yourself
with them. / guess you are timid
enough for one though, and you do
look good, even if you amt. But
lets get down to business again.
There are five of us. / have five
pennies in my pocket-all but one
are lincoln pennies. The one who
gets the Indian-head can do the job.
I'll put them in this hat and we draw
one. The one who draws the I'M
lucky one can keep it to themselves,
and he will be the only one to know
who does it. So if anything goes
wrong, none of the rest of us will
know who did it. He can fix the
the thing after two o'clock the night
before. He will just be out an alarm
clock, but that can't be helped. Well,
Boys, how about it."
"Suits me, so let's go, Little Brat
ly doesn't like for me to be late, and
Oxford eagle. (Oxford, Lafayette Co., Miss.) 1876-current, 1920-03-18

Bratly girl in just a few minutes.
Whatem you want, let's hear it
quick"
Oh, Tom, don't fly off the handle so
easily. There is just plenty of time,
and furthermore, l have an import
ant piece of business to put before
the society. You boys all remember
the suggestion Windshield Jones made
the other day, don't you. The sug-
gestion to dampen the faculties reli-
geous arddon. Well, we will let him
tell US about it.
"But, Bill, you know that it was
merely suggestion-just joke to
make you all laugh. You don't sup
pose that we could really do it with
out getting caught, do you?"
