Questions often heard of late. Have
you paid your poll tax? Have you paid
your furniture dealer? Did it work?
Are you challenged? Well then, what
are you doing over here? Do you live in
Arkansas? Are you behind with your
rent?
From general appearances the minority

as there are plenty of squirrels, rabbits,
’possums, and black haws in the hills of
Montgomery to last for a period of two
years.
Spence Kirk says that there are still
a few cozy corners found in Albemarle.
Now. D you; challenge that.

Club House Notes
Fellows who live on the second floor
wonder why a certain room is lighted
so late at night. Can it be that we have
zealous students in our midst? And
there are frequent gatherings on the
second floor in the Ann^jx. in that well-
i:nown “den.” Mike and Dick are often
heard to say, the morn inj; following,
“Who entertained the fellows last night?”
“Oh, I don’t know. I guess Scottie gave
the party.” Well, sometimes he does.
The fire in the garage across the
road from the Club Annex threw a scare
into some of the Annex dwellers. But
if they could have seen Kirk Erb, Joe
Leonard, Quinlan, and a couple of the
other fellows from the Club pushing the
hose into the burning ?juiilding they
would have had no fear. Just to show
how easily he handled the nozzle, Erb e
threatened to turn it directly oa the fel
lows behind him—^but he finally hit the
building!
Tennis is dying a slow death at the
club courts, for there are a few enthu
siasts who manage to get in an occa
sional game during the week. And on
Saturday afternoon and Sunday one
court is usually occupied. This weather
sure influences one to believe that tennis
is still in season.
Everyone is enjoying the new records
which the House Committee purchased
with the money obtained from the gen
eral subscription. That effort toward
co-operation was richly rewarded, and
now we know that the crowd can and
will pull together if approached in the
proper manner.
Lois Bell has a difficult time dividing
her time suitably between two of the
“little fellows.” The chap with the long
hair and the glasses appears to sway
the romantic-minded Lois with his sing
ing; but we will be hanged if we can see
what pulls her the other way.
Two of our largest members, a cou
ple of course, are such regular atten
dants at the movies that we are begin
ning to believe that they have a season
ticket, although we never) knew that
there was such a thing in the movie-
theater world.
The Sunday night gatherings in t>''
lobby are gloomy affairs. We wonaer
if it is not because of the atmosphere
a few provincial minded bring with them.
It is very evident that hymns and sacred
music are de trop for the average club
member.
E. E. Erb reports that his minstrel
troupe is making commendable progress,
and that the first dress rehearsal will
convince the entire cast that their min
strel is to be one of the treats of the
coming season.
Tilson ,feels natural again—^he can
spend a few evnings playing his fa
vorite game. Those who witnessed the
first basket-iball game of the season will
say that he is some player at his game,
too.
Joe and Julia will soon be stepping
out! Who is next?
