Agnes Scott College where three Of
last years graduates are students:
Friday Morning.
Dear Bill
Since wrote to you last, l have
received your letter and one from
Daddy, and also one from Man:a. The
funny papers, the New York Times
pictures and "Life" came yesterday,
and so just had to stop studying
long enough to read them. You all
must write to me often as it keeps
me from getting homesick. l have
received several copies of the Press
and Banner, which I have enjoyed
very much. I read Daddy's piece
about Uncle Jim and the boil wee
wills, which was very amusing.
You should see me now. Sopho-
more week is on! have my hair
slicked back and fixed in two plalts
which are tied at the ends with green
babv ribbon. A little bell is also tied
to the ends of the pig-tails. I have
nv shoes laced with green ribbon and
a large white placard with Mary
Hemphill Greene written in large
green letters on it is tied around my
neck and hangs down my back. Don't
YOU know that I look like a Georgia
peach? Last night the Sophmores
made their annual raid. About one
o'clock they came bursting into oul
room and made us get up and go Out
in the hall. Then Vic had to roll 9
pencil along the floor with her nose
and to say very loudly everytime she
stopped, "Sophomores are lambs
had to get down on my hands ane
knees and walk up the floor like
goat and say Baa-a-a-a every feV
minutes. Then I had to wash a girl'
hands and finally to get under my be'
backwards and stay there until tn
raid was over. I got off without mucl
trouble as compared with some of tn
others. They had one girl on top of
trunk unwinding a big roll of toile

previously enforced by the State of
South Carolina. B. F.. Harris, Com
missioner of Agriculture, adopted
the government Specifications upon
the recommendation of DR.. A. C.
Summers State Chemist.
The new specifications for motor
fuel are those now used by the War
and Navy departments and approx
ed by the Bureau of Mines and the
Bureau of Standards and are recog-
nized as standard by all govern
ment departments. y.
DR.. Summers was a pioneer in the
framing of motor fuel specifications
for use in the various states. His
recommendation to Commissioner
Harris followed years spent in
studying the gasoline question in
this state.
The new specifications, in addi-
ton to making possible an immedi-
ate reduction in the price through
simplification of refining processes,
will also insure a high grade of
gasoline for motor use and en-
courage steps toward further con-
servation of motor fuel by other
states.

for the best stunt was a black cat.
The presidents of the sophomore and
freshman classes went up on the
stage and one of the judges handed
the cat to them. The Soph. president
was so sure that they had won that
she held the cat and let the president
of our class read the decision. She al
most fell off the stage when our
president read out that we had won
the decision. Vic was mistress of the

Propyleans had their party Tuesday
night. 1t was a barn dance. The
Propylean family were giving it as
a coming-out party for their daugh-
ter, Ina Propylean. The first thing
on. the program was a fight between
the NJ. and P. cocks. Two girls were
dressed in brown dresses with feath-
ers on them. They had red combs like
chickens on their heads and feather
busters for tails. Of course the Prop.
cock won. Then Pa Prop introduced
all his family. His son, Bea Prop, was
in love with IRA Freshman, and Bea
Mnems. was also in love with her. So
they decided that whoever found a
wonderful cup which had been lost
(the society debating cup) should win
the girl. So Bea Prop. looked for the
cup, found it and won the girl. Then
Ura Freshman became IRA Propy-
lean. Then after girl dressed in a
bingham apron and a sunbonnet had
given a solo dance, they served ice
cream. The souvenirs were little farm
implements, rakes, hoes and mallets.

Last night was the first "big" night
that we have had yet. 1t was the
night when the Sophomores and
Freshmen had their stunts. Each had
little play which represented some
thing in school life. Ours was written
by Dell Burnhardt, one of the girls
here. 1t was garden scene. On one
side were the flowers, which were
represented by girls dressed in flower
costumes. The costumes were -beauti'
full and the girls surely looked pretty
standing in the arbors of green vines
The flowers represented the Sopho'
mores, who were supposed to loos
down on the poor vegetables on the
other side of the garden wall. The
vegetables were the freshmen: The
worm of conceit, a girl dressed in
long sack with big eyes sewed at the
! top, entered the garden and fiatterec

vegetables would not listen to him
The flowers let him enter their par

GASOLINE TO co DOWN

The Standard Oil Company New
Jersey has announced that an Oc-
tober 18th, in the State of South
Carolina only, decrease of 1 cent
per gallon in the price of gasoline
will be effective.
This step is made possible by the
recent adoption of U. S. govern
ment specifications for motor gaso-
line to supersede the specifications

Then another girl had to get on top
of her trunk and sing jazzy song.
She selected "The Star Spangled
Banner" They made Vic tell joke
and when she had finished made her
90 look for the point of it. She got
under the bed and gave them my
garter for the point of the joke. They
put one girl under her mattress and
beat her with broom. However, the
mattress kept the broom from hurt
ing her. Then this same girl had to
take the mattresses off the two beds
in her room and jump back and forth
from bed to bed. AS she did this she
had to wrestle with Temptation. Some
had to sing the laundry list and some
the stations between here and At
ilanta to the tune of Home, Sweet
Home" Yesterday the Sophs took a
crowd of freshmen to Decatur. They
made them walk in time and say: very
loudly, 81 left, I left, I left my wife
! and forty-fve children" Everybody
they passed had regular circus over
them.

WINSLOW TO BUILD
FOR TOURIST TRADE

At meeting of the city council last
Tuesday night the question of camp
ing ground for automobile tourists
was taken up, and the council pass
ed resolution to appropriate funds
to equip and keep clean and up-to-
date camp ground. The old round
house site on Williamson Avenue will
Immediately be cleaned and toilets,
cook stoves and water will be sup
piled to the tourists free of charge.
1t is the intention to pipe the gas
into the grounds and put in a quar-
ter meter to furnish the fuel for
cooking
There are several hundred tourists
who pass through here every month
and it has been estimated that they
will spend several dollars per per-
son if induced to remain over night.
Most all other towns along the Old
Trails highway have already supplied
camping grounds as contemplated
here, and the tourists have long re-
sented and treatment accorded them
in Winslow with the filthy place
they have been compelled to camp in
and as consequence have given us
a lot of undesirable advertising and
boycotting the town in general by
passing through without stopping and
camping on the desert.

MARSHAL GARDNER ON THE JOB

Fred Douglas, alias Eddie Rivers,
alias Bobby Burns, alias Simon Stern,
the clever check artist who operated
several days in Winslow and passed
a score or more of bad checks, is now
looking through the Jail bars at. Los
Angeles. This man landed in Wins
low driving a fine lodge touring car
and Immediately set out to meet the
people of means and succeeded in en-
deavoring to have them examine his
credentials which were naturally OF
the highest caliber. He finally sue
ceeded in flooding about $500 worth
of bad checks and then left between
sunset and sunrise Gardner got a
scent of him near the Grand Canyon
from an east-bound tourist, and the
blood hound never lost the scent until
the man of many names was lodged
safely in his present location. How
ever, the checks have been all made
good and it is possible the case may
be dismissed if be agrees to never
again put his foot on Arizona soil.
We have no room here for such men
as this. 3A ia. .e -
