FIGHTS AND RUN AwAYs

Some years ago, wEen poXMig was per mitted in New York state, two negroes went on in a ten-rounder. One man out elassed the other by a mile and was hitting him with everything but the roof. Finally he clouted his rival on the jaw whereupon that .egro dropped to the floor near to the ropes.
 SeIzing the nearness of the hempen strands as an excuse to get out or tax ing further beating, he rolled through them into the press box, fell there in heap, got up and started down the aisle to his dressing room.
 "Ohi I say, boy!'' exclaimed a mem Der of the audience who was parked in an aisle aren't you going to do any more fighting?"
 The speeding negro halted long enough to turn two battered eyes upon his ques- tioner and to reply:
 "Oh, yas, aah-yas, sah--ah'1n gwine to dc lot more fghtlng-but not dis night. :

HAVE THEIR OWN LANGUAGE
No Doubt at All That Birds and Beasts
Hold Communication With
Each Other.

That phrase, dumb animals" be-
trays more ignorance of the life around
us than any other ever invented by our
race, for, though no species save man
has an articulate language, no one
who has watched and attended to the
ways OF birds and beasts can doubt
that they very thoroughly manage to
convey to each other their wishes and
intentions. Each, in its own way, COM
municates with its fellows, and If the
language Is not our language 1t at any
rate serves their purpose exceedingly
well. Certainly the amount of individ-
uality that there is among the different
specimens Of the same species can only
be realized by those who have had
much to do with wild creatures. No
one mammal or bird is ever in char
acter and behavior the exact duplicate
of the next; each differs in some way
from its neighbor, 30 you can never
depend on any two animals doing ex-
actly the same thing under the same
circumstances-in fact, we find that
individuality reigns as supreme
throughout Nature as it does through
out man, but then. after all, man Is
part of Nature-Frances Pitt In the

Clifford Pinchot. one OF the lead
ers of the convention. when inter-
viewed on the subject said, II think
AZ is q crime to sell the ships for the
price that was named and 1t Is even
a shame to attempt to oner them
for sale. Our Government Is right
now in a position where II is second
to none in foreign trade and the sac

The people Of the State Of Okla

what are practically some of the best
ships in this country today. The
whole State is ablaze with wrath at
the movement and / am glad now
that Mr. Hearst's injunction had such
good effect. Real Americans would
not stand for such procedure"
Mr.. Pinchot said today that the
farmers Of the United States can be
depended upon to work tooth and
nail against the nomination of Her
bert Hoover for President.
Don't ask me what ] think of
Hoover for President" pleaded Mr..
Pinchot. My opinion is not print

"Only through the cooperation be-
tween the farmers and urbanites is ii
possible to reduce the high cost of

when the time comes that the
masses in agriculture and the masses
in the city have sense enough thor

The high cost of living is getting
more serious. Everything continues
to advance in price and there is no
reason for it. 1t seems that it is a
plain case of profiteering on the part
of the manufacturers. The govern
ment authorities should get behind
chose fellows who are holding up the
government and evesybody else. This
can be done easily, if they will start at
che right place, but you will have to
go above the spot where the water is
being muddied, and come down the
stream to locate the trouble. Start
With the COW hide when it comes from
the dead cow, follow it to the buyers
and not to the tanners, and on to the
shoe factory, and back to the merchant
selling the shoes, and by the time you
get around, you will know exactly
Why shoes are selling at from SIS to

EXAM WEEK WAS
STRENUOUS one
Many Students Burned the Midnight
Oil and the passes" and "Busts"
Averaged About Normal.

No, gentle reader, those haggart
looks and black trimmed eyes of the
students seen moping around the cam
pus are not the result of recent jazz
with old John Barleycorn for he is
like the examination week just gone
by "a thing of the past. AS usual
many were the complaints that eve
have surely got a hard-boiled profes-
Sor, and did you ever see such ali
exam," ct cetera. The new schedule
was put into practice and many OF tbs
students as a result had two exams
upon Saturday and then two more up
on the following Monday, but taken
schedule was quite an improvement
all around the new examination
upon the old. AS the latest reports
roll in we gather that there has been
an abnormal amount of studying done
during the last week that some have
been dismally disappointed, others
agreeably surprised and still others
satisfied with their grades but not
pleased. Variety is the spice of life,
if we are to Judge by the number o.
students who change their courses at
ter exam. By way of explanation we
hasten to state that a student who
flunks in one course cannot take the
same course during the ensuing term
Dame Rumor has it that there are in
our midst master minds that have
been exposed to all the courses in
school. Anyway enough passed to
keep cole Miss 'out in front as the
best school in the state and we at
least have the consolation that it's a
long time off till the next examina-
ton.
