THE STUDENT UNION The Men's Student Council is to be commended for its work in pushing to completion the movement for quarters for a Men's Student Union. If the Council continues to manifest such energy, it will make the Student Council more of a factor than ever before. The leased quarters are the first step toward a permanent Student Union building, owned by the students themselves, on the camps. No organization steps into existence full grown. From small beginnings the Union will grow into an institution that will form a vital part of the life of every student of the University. WORTH WHILE? The seniors have finished their years at the University. They are now asking themselves if the time, and money, and effort which they have expended has been worth while. They can not answer the question as positively now as in later years, when the training they have received here has matured and borne fruit. But they can answer it, even now, with an undoubting affirmative. The University training has been very much worth while. Many of the four hundred odd who graduate have worked their way through college. To many the efforts which they have put forth would seem too great a sacrifice, but looking back they will probably look to their University days as the happiest years of their lives. Should you ask them, they would return an answer even more emphatic than those who have apparently had a greater chance to derive benefits from their college course. In their retrospection, the seniors may be at a loss to explain just where their work on Mount Oread has helped them. It has been a slow evolution and it is hard for them to judge how greatly they have advanced in the last four, or five, or six years. But that they have developed is none the less true. Worth while? It certainly is. If you have gone through the grind yourself, you know that it is. If you have not, you have the assurance of the countless thousands who have preceded you, that it is worth all that it costs. And no matter if you are now penniless, you have within yourself the means to pay the cost. One senior regrets that he did not secure a "fussy" gown like the Chancellor wears at commencement, even if it should cost him a dollar extra. If the seniors had had some class meetings as well attended as their commencement gatherings, the class would have had more to it scried in the way of things accomplished. One student journalist has as his life ambition the ownership of a daily paper, equipped with a city editor and a managing editor and other conveniences, so that when things go wrong he can go out in the office, jump up and down on some body's prostrate form and fire a few men. Some of the seniors look almost as uncomfortable in their caps and gowns as one remembers he felt in his first dress suit. THE SAD, SAD GRIND OF OUR COLLEGE LIFE Lawyer—Mr. Simpkins was a man of impregnable was, he was not? Witness—I should say so. His relatives are fighting it yet. —Jack O'-Lantern. "Would you consider it improper if I should kiss your hand?" "No, not improper, but decidedly out of place." OF COURSE OF COURSE Her—Am I the only— Him—Help! Her—Girl you ever told she was the only girl you ever told she was the only girl you ever loved? Claude—Did you pay to see that show or were you taken in? Clarence—Both. —Tiger. SMASH SMASH She—Mother says you're double faced. He—But you believe in me, don't you? She—Well, I didn't think you'd use that one if you had another. "I'm bound to rise myself, so I like to give other people a lift," remarked the elevator boy as he stopped the car at the twentyth floor. "Say, old man, can you come around and see me tomorrow at three o'clock?" "Sure. What's up?" "That's when I'm going to return your dress shirt, which I am going to borrow now." Punch Bowl.
