There presided over a French class
in a college in Canada professor who
possessed a very large pair of glasses
which he used to wear in class. Now
when the prof looked at the class one
could never tell just who he was look
ing at, and one day seeing student
at the fair end of the class chewing
gum at great rate of speed he ex-
claimed, young man, bring that gum
up here and put it in the basket"
class and then five of the students
arose and deposited the offending
article in the baskets. B. H.
In my day we had our bold spirits,
youths who would "Step out" occasion
ally, and among them was Jewish
friend of mine. This Jew was exceed
ingly fond of roast pork and each week
went to a restaurant in a distant part
of Cambridge to indulge his appetite.
One warm day in the early part of
June l accompanied him to his ban
quet. Just as we were enjoying our
selves a violent thunderstorm came on.
My Jewish friend continued eating like
man, taking as little notice as he
could, but at last he had to throw
down his knife and fork, exclaiming,
what fuss to make about a little
piece of pork! IN. c., IL.
The room was rather stuffy, and
George, having been out the night be-
fore, fell asleep in class. The profess
sor, being a great believer of psychol-
ogy, thought he would try an
experiment on him. Walking quietly
to where George slept, he whispered
in a very low tone, Cali those who are
FOOLS" and then in loud voice he
continued will please stand up"
Upon hearing the words, stand up,
George thinking they were shouted at
him, jumped from his seat amid the
roar of the class.
Rubbing his eyes and coming to his
senses, he saw that he had made
fool of himself, but wishing to put the
instructor in the same boat, he slowly
said, st don't know what you are
voting on, professor, but you and 1
seem to be in the minority."-A. B.
I had a roommate who was given to
making rash promises. While in st.
Louis and Kansas City during the
summer, he had asked girl in. each
city to be his guest at the annual
Thanksgiving football game with Kan
sas and at the fraternity dance fol-
lowing the game. And to add to this,
he was madly in love with a campus
coed, whom he intended to take to
these affairs.
Three days before Homecoming the
mail man brought him letters from
both out-of- town girls telling him they
would leave and when he could meet
them. My roommate nonchalantly
sent wires to both girls saying: Home
coming cancelled. No use coming

During his sophomore year at a New
England college, Jimmy Collins accom-
plished most original undertaking.
About a week before Christmas vaca-
ton, he wired his father in Chicago,
"Shall come home via New York or
directly?" His father telegraphed back,
Come home directly" With the tele-
gram in his hand Jimmy rushed into
the deans office, and excitedly an
nounced, "Sir, my father has tele-
graphed for me to come home immedi-
ately!" and he showed the telegram to
the dean. A few hours later found
Jimmy chuckling to himself aboard a
western flyer-H w.
