Origin of Late Summer Has Many Explanation
Shrift clothes have been the popular dress for men on the Hill the last few days. People are wondering what has caused the sudden return of summer weather. The answer is "It's Indian summer."
Contrary to popular opinion, "Indian summer" is not a term confined to a small locality, or even to the United States. It is customary to write in praise of Indian summer in Europe and Asia as well as in
The origin of the word, and its usage as applied to the season of warm weather, which comes toward the end of autumn is voiled in the uncertainty of great age. More than a century ago the term was commonly
There are many explanations as to the derivation of the name itself. It was once thought to be so-called because Indians could predict the coming of such spells of weather. It was thought that the haziness and smokiness were produced by the Indian's campfires. Come on, I thought that the season began earlier in the close of Indian months on the settlements of whites for the year. Others thought that the season was as deceptive as an Indian.
"Squaw Winter", a more uncommon term, is the name given to the cold spell preceding Indian summer.

Memorial to General F. Funston Is Unveiled at "Stony Lonesome." Site of School Where He Taught
A memorial tablet to General Frederick Fusion, ex'50, was unveiled at "Stirry Lonecowe", the site of the only school house in which the general officer was born, p. 1m. The Freedriche Fusion Chapter, D. A, R. placed the tablet and presented it to the Kliwanis Club, the owner of the property. M. F. A. Eckhall, A. R., 95, of Emporin, and M. F. of Fusion, unveiled the memorial.
The tablet is of bronze and carries upon it an inscription bearing the legend of Funston and his "Stony Lonesome" school and with the names of the Kiwiina Club and the D. A. R. This was placed upon the age-timed highway just north of Humboldt and between there and Ioha—the general's early home. "Stony Lonesome" plot of ground is set side from the highway and by the farm of I. B. Whently. There is also a fountain for the traveler and a pile of tumbled, weathered stones surround by a granite statue that was taken over over the away of the old school house.
The opening number of the dedication services was a bugle call by Dean Ronnamill, followed by an invocation by the Rev. C. W. Marlin who served in Company B of the first Nebraska volunteers in the Spanish-American War, and in the gallant "Funston" the Fighting Twentieth" during that war.
The dedication of the tablet was made by Mrs. R. B, Campbell of Wichita, state regent of the Kansas D. A. K. She reviewed the life of Funston from his early childhood, his graduation from the Iowa High School, the college at Texas Tech, some* his student days at the University of Kansas from 1886 to 1890, followed by his daring romantic adventures "from the burning sands of Death Valley, from the frozen waters within the artic circle, from the jungles of Cuba, from the swamps and the nice dios of the Philippines," to his well known career as the leader of the army in uprising矿 his death in 1917.
"Reflecting upon these memories of the past, we see again in our minds' eyes, the schoolmate, quick and alert to change," he says. "It takes a lot of minutes. A smile now and then lights up."
Club to Meet Thursday
El Ateneo to Plan Enlarged Program This Year
Outside speakers, more interesting programs and more constructive work are included in the tentative plans of Gilberto Robles, e29, president of El Alenco, Spanish club, which holds its first meeting of the year at 4:30 p.m. thursday. Oct. 11, in room 163 Gold Office of east Administration building
Tryouts will be arranged and requirements for membership will be decided upon at the meeting Thursday. Robles said in discussing the plans, because Junaita Lighter, ex 29 president of the club did not attend. The session will be elected Thursday to fill the vacancy, Robles said.
Indiana University is raising funds to finance a sunken garden between the Memorial and Residence halls.
The program for the meeting will be in charge of Mary Helen Juricak, who will direct a Spanish drama.
these plans must be decided upon soon, and the tryouts given so that we can make this year one of the best in the history of El Ateneo. All members are therefore urged to attend" (Boynton 1983). At least 15 hours of Spanish before trying out for El Ateneo, a club which is sponsored by the department of Spanish for students especially interested in learning how to speak the language as well as learn more of the literature and drama of the Spanish speaking peoples. It is one of the biggest clubs on the Hill, according to the Bureau of Statistics, in store this year for those who have a great deal of Spanish as well as for those who have taken only the mini-mium amount for membership.
"Although this is the first meet- of the year," Robles continued, "it one of the most important, because
up his keenly determined face, and an occasional twinkle of the eyes betrays an active sense of humor. But we know that his spirit grew restless and that his young life longed for a wilder and wider expanse, a larger world and greater things to do; and that in the loneliness of this little spot, in the quietness of the park, he contemplated a future devoted to the exploration of the unknown and uneen in the world of adventure."
Mrs. Eckdall, in her "Tribute to the Past of 'Stony Lonesome,'" and after unveiling the tablet said,
"Among the many influences of his early life which had an effect upon the shaping of his future, perhaps 'Stony Lonecune' had its share. It is not implying that he was a teacher and the tactics used by the schoolmaster in subduing the belligerents in this new deserted and peace-loving school, may have inspired confidence in himself and in his ability to enforce discipline—a trait infrequently associated with his life—when it became his duty to direct man."
"All is humbed and still now about the old ruin, save the rattle of cottontowne as it whispers of the days in which you were a conqueror in yonder rings of green or in the nearly thick plumes of plumae, or the um of the bee as he carries the pollen through the open door to the sweet-throated flower just beetle."
"Within these walls the last call us insured, the children have closed their books and gene on a long vacancy of the hill in the land of the golden sunsets, and return to us only p. memory."
"May this monument to his past be a living memorial to a proud and noble generation, and may the name inscribed upon this tablet ever be a symbol of lofty ideals, high aspiration, courage and determination."
Presentation of the memorial to the Kiwian Club was made by Mrs. J. H. Hindman of Humhohi, representing the Frederick Fusion Chapter of D. A. R., to the Rev. J. L. Reledef who accepted in behalf of the Kiwian
Again, a bugle was heard and "Tap!", the end of a true soldier's play—softly rang out upon the deepening light air.

Bartenders Suspicious of Friendly Handclasp
17 West 9th St.
3 doors wert of Innes
Madison, Wis., Oct. 10. — (UP)—Bartenders are not shaking hands while on duty—not in this state.
no, sir! Many will tell the whole wide world they're not. And prohibition agents ruefully admit it.
Too often the white-aproned dispensers of liquor have found themselves "in the grasp of the law" when they reached across the maligary in response to a familiar greeting and an outstretched hand.
Bartender have learned that while it is coffee to return a smile and greeting, it is wisest to spurn a handshake—if they have anything behind the bar which might be used as evidence against them.
When the usual "What's yours?" to a new customer at the bar evoked *prefixed handshake, as if from some long-forgotten acquaintance, many a daewer of suds has made the mistake of accepting.
Much to his chirping, in scores of instances, his hand was grasped in a vice like claw and he was jerked into an uncomfortable position across the bar.
This hit of action was the signal for entrance of officers provided with a search warrant, usually obtained by a police officer having been purchased at the place.
When the hankerent was jerked sprawlingly across his own counter he was prevented from dumping down a convenient drain pipe any small supply of liquor secreted behind the bar. While he was helpless, the main body of prohibition agents took advantage of the work done by their aid.
vanee scout, rushed behind the bar, and searched for "leviator." Liquor found in these places usually is contained in a pitcher or other wide-mouthed receptacle which can be employed and quickly, the agents have learned.
Geminity has given way to distrust.
Friendly and open-handed presiding
at the bar has gone and in its place
is fortissence and suspicion. A bar-
hooker explains this change, saying,
"The more friendly a fellow tries to
meet, the less I trust him now, especially
when she hands it to 'doing you dirt.'"
"It still is a good trick, if the barkeeper won't hear about it, but most of them are wise now." Invented one of the prohibition agents.
