Listen, Mr. Webster, Let's Get '86' Straight
By Mary Lou Randall, 'c'mel.
When you sit down on a chair and the chair isn't there—that's "86."
When you try to sell a $4.50 text-book (practically unused and as good as new) and discover that the book is now out of date—that's "360°" your new out of date--that's "360°".
When you get out of bed some morning and find yourself walking on the ceiling instead of the floor and everything whirling around in front and in back of your eyes and hands that are sticking in and hits you—that's "86," again.
When you order a simple little dinner and hope you won't receive any bean salad and you do receive the salad—well, that's another "burger."
This One Is Purely Hypothetical
When you go home and find you postcard saying you received an A plus on a hard final and didn't dumbbell the course after all—that's not "86." (It's probably 99 or 100.)
Whence coneth this expression so quinit—this term called "867" Research among, the Dictionary of Foreign Words and Phrases (Wilson-Wilson) Roger's Thesaurus of Interesting Words and Phraser Origins, and Webster's voluminous "The Beginnings of Language, Words, and So Forth" failed to reveal any trace of these
Rural Power Featured At Farm. Home Week
Manhattan, Feb. 7- (UP)—Rural electrification occupies an important position in the program of the annual Farm and Home week at Kansas State College, being held Feb. 7 to 10.
Two half-day sessions were devoted to a discussion of the varification. The meetings were held at the offices of the conference, Tuesday, Feb. 7.

Cafe Contains Cogent Clue
Wearied by hard and intensive study, this reporter dropped into a local café and there more or less unwittingly found what she was looking for. We mean we found the source of the expression "86." It just happened that the cafe was out of what we were looking for.
"Do you have some spaghetti on rye," this reported asked. .
"Eighty-six," was the waiter's short, curt reply. Reply. "Do you have some olive oil on toast with French dressing?" Again the voice, as if from the tomb "86."
At this point the reporter became irritated. "Where did you get that expression '86'?"
Made It Up Himself
"Oh, we just invented it," the waiter timidly explained. "It's easier to say than 'We're sorry, but we're out of that right now,' or 'We'll send out for it if you really must have it.' In short, it means no go, nil, and we are all out sorry. Get it? If you don't, it's '86 arm."
And so, Mister Webster, please note: After diligent research, we
have concluded that "86" means some one or something that it will out or with a definite lack of something. Maybe you'd better get it in your next edition.
