"There are bison up in this coun'
try" | remarked, switching my cam
era from one shoulder to the other,
land | would certainly like to get q
picture Of one"
"We call bison 'buffnloes' in our
country, don't we?" asked Bobby.
"We do, Bobby" / replied, "and
over here in India they call them
gaur." w.
"They grow pretty big, too, I've
heard" said Bobby.
"Ycs." | agreed, "nnd I would like
to see one Of those fellows that meas
ures over seven feet from his shoulder
to the ground"
"Whew!" said Bobby, and Bunny
shook his head until his whiskers even
wiggled.
II suppose they live on plains, just
like Dur blufaloes at home do" sug'
gested Bobby.
II imagine so," i said.
We'll be coming to a plain pretty
soon, / think" ventured Bunny. This
wood can't last forever" And he gave
great bound and was soon out OF
sight.
We kept going and in a little while
Bunny came hopping back and said:
"There's n plain below, Foxy Grand
pa and il / we're you I'd have my cam
era ready, for you never know what
you will see on such plain as this
And think we'd better stay up here
ON this hill"
Not n word did. i say. but followed
Bunny's advice and when we were
finally out Of the woods we found our
selves UP on the brow of hill over
looking a great stretch of level ground
We sat down under a tree and
Bunny sat up on his hind legs scan
ming the country before us.
There they are" he whispered and
pointed to some brown spots far off in
the distance.
"What?" / asked.
"Gaur," he whispered. Il thought
L smelt them. Well stay right here.
You can imagine our excitement o.
waiting. But in n little while the
herd moved on aud the brown spot;
took shape as they drew nearer and
soon they we're there-right at thu
foot Of our hill-about 40 big Indian
bison

Meditations Of
a Wife
A Little Salad Dressing.
By Helen Rowland


The lover says IL with flowers, the
husband says it with checks and then,
somebody comes along and says It
with WORDS-and the divorce suit
is on!
When a married man lies between
the necessity Of sacrificing a poker
party and sacrificing the truth
that's where he lies!
Bachelors are like cold waffies.
There is nothing morally against
them, but you just can't think Of any
reason why they should exist.
Alas, when lovely woman bobbed
her hair and her skirts, she exchanged /,
her mystery" for piquancy. Some
how. romantic charm and rolled stock
ings woa't mix, any more than oil
and ginger ale.
A man is not half so apt 10 die Of
a broken heart when a girl refuses his
love, these days, as he is TO drop dead
from establishment.
After reading the flaming letters In
the latest scandal suit, lots Of luckier
men crossed their fingers AID threw
away their fountain pens.
Before marriage, rendezvous" Is
a place where you so eagerly to meet
a man who is waiting for you; sitter
marriage, it is a place where you
stand around on one foot and then the
other, waiting for a MAJ.
Some men may be STIRRED" 10 emo
ton by a woman's eharm-but most
of them have to be Shaken" before
their real sentiments rise to the top.
Youth-the time when every day is
Christmas Eve! Age-the time when
every day is January 2nd-with the
bills coming in!
Music, poetry and women are TIRES
things which a man would rather ad.
mire and enjoy than understand.

There have been few years that
Augusta has not been represented IN
some capacity in the Bowdoin Col
lege Musical clubs. which are to
give a concert in Augusta City hall
Friday evening, Apr. IL. This year
the Capital City has as its represen-
tative Donald b. Hewett, '2S, grad
uate of Cony high school in the
class of 1924.
While in Cony, Don Hewett was
a leader in all forms of high school
activities and is deservedly popular
He was president of the graduating
class at Cony two years ago and as
president of the 33rd annual ChizZle
While fair that year was instru-
mental in putting over a most sue
cessful affair. In 1925 he was also
president of the 18th annual Maine
Y. NJ. c. A. conference, at Portland.
Don Hewett has continued his ac-
tivities at Bowdoin and has been
prominently identified with many
phases of college activity. In addi-
ton to being an excellent student,
he has always taken prominent
part in athletics, his specially being
football. He is a member of the
Bowdoin Glee Club this year.
The Bowdoin programs this year
have been noteworthy for their di-
rect simplicity. At the New Eng
land Intercollegiate Glee Club con-
test at Boston recently, Bowdoin
gave way only to the Wesleyan Club.
which afterwards won the national
championship at New York City, and
this by a very narrow margin.
In awarding the cup to Wesleyan,
Philip Hale, chairman of the COM
mittee of judges. called the attention
of both singers and audience to the
fact that Wesleyan and Bowdoin,
the clubs winning first and second
places. had chosen simple songs.
Their selections. he pointed out, had
remained as their composers set
them down; that they had not at
tempted compositions too difficult
for them, nor those which had
passed under the smirching. pervert-
ed hand of some modern "compos-
er" or adapter.
feature of the concert Friday
evening is the dance, which will fol-
low the musical program, with mu-
sic by the Bowdoin collegiate dance
team.
