Dripping rains drenched Mt. Oread this weekend to serve as an immediate antidote for the picnic bug which has injected the picnic spirit into Campus socialites. Hill organizations with definitely planned outings for this weekend turned them into indoor festivities and ate their basket lunches with all the jest of the usual picnic crowd and suffered none of the common ills of poison ivy and chigger bites. Two fraternities put the final touch on the spring formal season and other students went in for long bridge seasons and coking $ ^{ \textcircled{8}} $fa'41, Marjorie Thomas fa'42 fotes

The horseback riding season is not exactly seasonal in the vicinity of Mt. Oread, but this time of year finds a new class of beginners bouncing about on saddles, learning to hold their elbows in and not to clutch the reins frantically.
The proper riding equipment simplifies the difficult job of learning to ride. It is easier to hold your toes in the stirrups and point your heels down if you are wearing the correct boots. The right kinds of gloves will assist you in grasping the reins firmly.
You may wear either jodhpur
New this season is the riding coat made of Palm Beach cloth. Just off-white in color, it is fastened with three white pearl buttons. Two low flap pocketes, an inset breast pocket and a vent back are tailoring details. It is unlined for summer comfort.
In the same style, and a somewhat more practical color, are jackets made of cotton plaid. These come in a combination of brown, henna and beige and of green, brown and henna They also are unlined.
There are two versions of the tailored riding shirt, one to be worn with a jacket, one without. The only difference between the two is the cut of the collar. On the regulation shirt the collar is high, to show neatly above the coat. For less formal riding it is low.
There are calf-high socks of sheer wool to wear under your jodhpur shoes. Riding gloves have string backs and natural-colored goat skin palms that are perforated. A final touch of elegance is to be found in the collar-pin and cuff link sets made of pigskin, or of crystal with horses-heads.
An innovation, in the nature of an hour dance, will be held from 7 to 8 o'clock. Swimming, archery, volleyball, deck tennis, aerial darts, ping pong, and shuffleboard will be other features of entertainment directed by students and teachers of physical education.
Education majors, graduate students, students working for University teacher's certificates, and any students enrolled in the School of Education are invited to attend.
Veteran pedagogues and teachers of the future will lay aside serious matters for the annual picnic of the School of Education Wednesday. Activities begin in Fowler grove at 4 o'clock.
School of Education Will Hold Picnic Wednesday P.M.
Tickets, which are priced at 15 cents, may be purchased from members of Phi Delta Kappa, education fraternity, Pi Lambda Theta, education sorority, and Sasnak Club or at the education office.
According to Dr. Bert A. Nash, professor of education, who is in charge of plans for the picnic, 300 invitations have been sent out to education majors and graduate students.
The human brain is truly a wonderful thing. It starts to work the minute you get up and never stops until you get to class.
