Is the life of the Phi Beta Kappa one of constant study, worry, and drudgervy?
"Not so," says one fair maiden who never permits her studies to stop her good times, "it is not simply a question of work with me but only a question of system with my work and play. Do I ever stay at home at night in order to keep up with knowledge. Well no, except for examinations, but not often."
So testifies one of the members of the ranks of the Phi Beta Kappa. She does not work as does the diligent one who toils over the books of learning constantly begrudging the time he has to take off to get his daily food supply. He reads all the library, studies text books until the rogue one
of the dawn covers the eastern sky, then (judging from his appearance) we know he throws on his clothes, occasionally drabs a comb through his long locks of hair significant of his scholarly appearance and swings his frame, on which is placed the container of all the wisdom of Dread to him. There he proceeds to bury his wayward (?) fellow men by expounding his brainiology to his professor at each subject of discussion.
It must be admitted that he is not the only type of Phi Beta Kappa fo there is the youth who tells all his pals how very, very surprised he was when bid to the P. B. K's came and how adoring they were at studying. His pals still wonder how he did it and stille believe he studied while they were in slumberland.
Conscience clings as does the grapevine to the wire, so does the maiden's conscience who is a P. B. K. and has DATES. Yea, some of the P. B. K.'s continue to date even after they reach the professional plan of knowledge. It is told that one maiden goes to dances, plays cards, and goes motoring. And then—just before a quiz she sleeps not for two nights for she is shunt up in her rooms getting the knowledge that the professors expect her to have, for a P. B. K. MUST have an ABUUNDANCE of knowledge.
It is reported that one learned aspired on the Hill, like Edison must do with little sleep, for must he not have the broadness of Hugo, the wisdom of Solomon, the knowledge of Plato, and the thoroughness of Arthur Jerome Boynton to be the honored one in the League of Nations? He must not waste his time in slumber for he has attained the imposing summit on which stands that most learned seat of knowledge, the Pili Beta Kappa.

Inclement Weather Handicap Diamond Artists in Preparation,for Drake Game
"We are making every preparation to beat Drake here Thursday," said Dr. F. C. Allen this morning, "and can't allow the weather to interfere with the practice. We want to start the season with a win."
This afternoon is the first time in several years that baseball men have been forced to the gym because of the weather. Continued wet dimonds and cold have prevented the infielders and pitchers from limbering up their arms to any great extent this season, but Coach McCarty expects to get several good workout out-of-doors before the Drake contest, April 15.
