Detection of Boners Now The Great American Pastime
Other boners taken from the examination make valuable additions. "How venial, how delectable is the grape?" wrote another graduate. The use of "venial" is "inexusable" says Webster. Another person wrote "A martinet sat on the highest branch of the tree."
Boners, sounding the death-knell for knowledge, have revolutionized our educational system. Educators in New York and Washington laude: "A" is the sorter letter.
"Don't be so redolent, say it," a college graduate wrote in an examination for a teacher's license given recently by New York City's board of examiners. Whether the graduate knew what the word "redolent" meant or not, most people would hesitate to say until they themselves looked up the word. Although he used the word incorrectly (acorded his experience earned his place in the sun with his valuable contribution to the hot list.
By Ray Buckley, c'38
The subject of boners has assumed a rightful place in the American home, relegating the more exact sciences to the dusty cupboards and shelves. Many persons take great pride in being able to detect these bits of misinformation and subject- them to extensive research to substantiate their contention of the incorrectness involved.

Boners Breed Wisdom

“Devoees!” of the arts and literature have said: “Sir Francis Bacon founded the Atlantic Monthly;‘King James I wrote the Bible’;‘Gannymede and Runnymede were two characters in Dickens.”
The Pharisees were a sex of the Jews; "the names of tue three wise men are Winken, Biblenk, and Nod"; "St. Patrick discovered Christianity in Ireland; "The pre-capital religion of England is hypocritic."
Potential theologists declare: "Moses died before he reached Canada, but he saw it from a mountain";
Occasionally boners such as, these breed wisdom; one thing sure, they provide incorrect information, and therein lies their value. Boners sometimes foster intelllect research. Boners are amusing and interest-

THAT "CHANT" SPELLS "EXPERT"
Lee Riggs, auctioneer, knows tobacco . . . he explains why experts prefer Luckies 2 to 1
"THIS SEASON," says Mr. Riggs, "I've sold tobacco in Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Tennessee. More than 7,500,000 pounds, I figure, amounting to about $2,000,000 in money."
about $,000,000 in money "Time after time I've seen Lucky Strike get the prettiest tobacco in the auction. That's one reason I've smoked Luckies ever since I've been an auctioneer.
"Another reason I and so many other tobacco auctioneers prefer Luckies is because we have to watch out for our throats." (Luckies are extra-easy on the throat because the "Toasting" process takes out certain irritants found in even the finest tobacco.)
Mr. Riggs goes on to say that Luckies are the top cigarette with people who know tobacco. And he is talking facts.
