ONE THING AND ANOTHER
A whole new editorial staff Can't tickle every man

New jokes are hard to find.

Just laugh - don't be too wise. Ex

"Why are you putting twine on those grains of corn, Johnnie? Johnnie: "That,s for the benefit of the caws."
A teacher once asked one of her pupils what the meaning of elocution was. "It's the way people are put to death in some states," upheld Johnny. Now, no count Johnny was somewhat confused, but confused or not there is certainly great truth in his answer.
My dear Editor:—
Pardon my candor, but I am desperately in love. In fact I have been ever since she brought me a sandwich during the May-pole scrap of 100—but alas, I am too modest to propose. What would you do if you were I? Answer soon. Very truly,
It is my opinion that love's labors are never lost. If you love the girl as desperately as you say, she must know it (as well as you). Perhaps if you keep her waiting she will appreciate your modesty and in some way rise to the occasion.
Dear Friend and Fellow Student:
I once had a friend who was too modest to 'pop the question.' He had let forty years of his life pass without coming to the point. He was in love with a woman of suitable age, but he would not tell her so, and, though she knew it, she could not very well give him a hint of the situation. She was willing because she had arrived at that time of life when a woman is not nearly so hard to please as she has been at some other time, but he was too bashful and went away without a word. He was gone a long time and when he came back he found her as he had left her,
"I have come back after many years," he said to her as he took her hand in greeting.
She had learned something in these years.
"Well for goodness' sake, Henry,' she exclaimed fervidly, "why don't you take them? I'm now thirty' five. How many years do you want?" Then a great light shone upon him and he waited no longer.
Perhaps you may profit by my friend's experience.-Mat Ed.

However, the program will not let the element of silliness be too predominate. The future success of the clubs depends in a great measure on the support now received, so come out and hear them next Friday night.
