THE POETS CORNER
Poster, rally 'round! The knights of time and rote are organizing a club or trust or something. It is open to all comers but you have to submit some little masterpieces before you get your thirty-third degree. Such an opportunity for young writers can hardly be overlooked. Just look at the advantages one would have. Take the styles, for instance. One ought to save better than twenty dollars in the course of a year by letting his hair grow. Of course a poet is not supposed to crease his trousers and rubber collars may be worn with impunity. Why it's the chance of a life time.
As to the contributions, anything would do but it must be art. Here is one which we would have submitted long ago had not modest forbidden. It is free-verse. That is, it's practically free. If you cut out these verses, guess the exact number of grammatical mistakes in it, and then sell two packages of Sunrise Wonder soap, we will mail you a beautiful illustrated volume of poems just like this one. All set? Yesterday I wandered into the gar-
Yesterday I wandered into the garden
I think I went out there to think,
It is a habit of mine
Out in the garden.
I love the flowers and birds and trees
I am fond of Coca Cola's too
Yet I am often puzzled,
Life is so big.
Now to all this let us add our sincere indorsement of the Poet's Club It is a fine thing for the University
We have just learned what a mono logue is. It is a conversation between a man and his wife.
A $50.000 OPPORTUNITY
Although we are trying to bring our world into a state of peace, we are not forgetful of other worlds, especially in the case of Mars. A money prize of $50,000 has been offered by the French Academy to any one establishing communication with the red planet. Some scientists today believe that Mars is sending signals earthward, hence the magnificent offer.
This may help stimulate Martian research and may also recruit the ranks of amateur astronomers, for who would turn up his nose at $50,000. In this respect, if it does not accomplish its main object, it will doubtless educate many who otherwise never would scrawl the heavens. There will probably be a number of persons now eagerly look for the "$50,000 baby" every evening.
Most people now can name the principal planets and a few bright stars, but they don't investigate further. Once they become familiar with the stars through the revelations of even the smallest of telescopes, they never cease to wonder at the glory of the heavens. So the more telescopes are turned on Mars the nearer will we come to solving the
problem, of possible life there. In the past, amateur astronomers have stumbled on to solutions of problems that have puzzled the most eminent astronomers. If then, why not now? Some neophyte gazer might be the one to win the prize.
IT HAS HAPPENED TO YOU
You are about two million class. Fact is, you've been late be fore. So you put on a little more steam. You can hear two or three women just behind you as you make a dive for the door. Your impulse is to belt right on through but you don't. Instead, you hold the door open wide while the ladies pass. Three-four-five; count 'em. Whon! Here's another one coming on the run. But you get to class-eventually. Do you get any thanks for your pains? Not as a rule. Why should you? Is it not enough reward that a cat may look at a Queen? Men are at times quite discourteous themselves. But this isn't the question. If we are going to have a general improvements in consideration of oth or people, some one must start it. And what is more logical than that these women, who profess to have the men backed off of the map when it comes to natural retirement, should take the initiative?
Choreox in femme! Just a smile or a word would make all the difference in the world.

It was given being that by twenty-five a girl has had time to finish her education, have a taste of independence, and social life, and is better able to judge what she wants. One girl in an answer questionnaire declared, "Never!" her reason being, "as long as a woman is able to make a living, marriage is unnecessary."

A flying word from here and there Had sown the name at which we sneered.
THE MASTER (Lincoln)
But soon the name was everywhere to be reviled and then reverted: A presence to be loved and feared, We cannot bide it, or deny That we, the gentlemen who jeered May he formulate he and he
(Lincoln)
He came when days were perilous And hearts of men were sore be quilled:
And having made his note of us,
He pondered and was reconciled.
Was ever master yet so mild
As he, and so untamable?
We doubted, even when he smiled,
Not knowing that he knew so well.
He knew that undeceiving fate Would shame us whom he served un sought:
He knew that he must wince and wait
The jest of those for whom he fought;
He knew devoutly what he thought
Of us and of our rôle;
He knew that we must all be taught Like little children in a school.
We gave a glamour to the task
we gave a gambit to the task
That he encountered and saw through
But little of us did he ask,
And little of us ever do.
It is the face of one who knew That we were learning while laughed.
And what appears if we review
The season when we railed an chaffed?
The face that in our vision feels Again the venom that we fug, Transfigured to the world reveals Shred, halloween, hallowed, an
ambling
The mysteries that are untold.
The face we see was never young
Nor could it ever have been old.
For he, to whom we had applied our shipman's test of age and worth, We elemental when he died, As he was ancient at his birth: The saudd among kings of earth, Bowed with a galling crown, this
Met rancor with a cryptic mirth, Laconic—and Olympian.
The love, the gandour, and the fame Are bounded by the world alone; The calm, the smouldering, and the
Of awful patience were his own:
With him they were forever flown
Past all our fond self-shadowings,
In which I saw them unknown
As with heep, learian wings
For we were not as other men:
Twas ours to son and his to see
But we are coming down again,
And we shall come down pleasantly
Nor shall we longer disagree
On what is to be sublime,
But flourish in our gireige
And have one Titan at a time.
