Mysterious Story Anonymously Submitted for Next "Sour Owl" Thrills and Puzzles All Readers
The entire staff of the "Sour Owl" is in a quantity. A problem unparalleled in the history of the publication has come up and the staff is at a loss for a solution. An anonymous story has been submitted to the editor with the urgent plea that it be published in the last issue of the "Sour Owl" which will be sold on the Hill next Friday.
The story has a mystery about it. George Roscoe, editor of the publication, found a plain white envelope on his desk or returning from a political meeting. The story was typed but a note in longhand was found with the envelope and a with a soft pencil and was a piece of paper of very poor quality. It is evident that the author of the story could not be discovered. The note read as follows—"George Roscoe: You will thing this peculiar but must you admit that such a city could not be discovered."

throat and human interest.
Edward W. Tanner, B. S, 716,
Simon Bilbr, B. S, 212, were the principal
leaders of the rebellion and made a few remarks. The whole dinner was a most enjoyable occasion accustomed to the gentlemen.
The Thursday evening dinner the trip was with the Kamas City section of the American Institute of Architects. *Murray Smith, ex 15*, is now a sponsor of the evening Smith is now with the J. G. Nichols Company.
In addition to their previously planned litterary the seniors were taken through the new Midlane theater. They examined the structure from basement to roof. They saw the stage apparatus and the ventilating system. The alarm clock Bank was also added to the list of the places examined on the tour.
Roscoe believes that the author is a senior on the Hill. The "Sour Owl" staff thinks that the author has saved "Owl" from the relaies number, "Owl" which is the Relays number,
