However, the last i.s.sue will be published entirely by the Senior Class, and will contain the class history, prophesy, poem, statistics, lud a brief account of achievements of each member, with possibly a group pic ture of the class. Watch for this; it will be out soon. estly, is not likely to fail, while the whole thing is a matter of chance with the cheater. Lex-O-Lights Mr. Hunt says the “second period Senioris” are the chewing guminist crowd he’s ever seen. Forceful lan guage.

Although it is better to fail honestly th.in to pass by cheating, the student who does his work honestly all through the year and takes his examinaiions hon- Time-Tu-Laf w’hen I grow old and ugly?” Dot O.—“Dearest, you may grow older but you will never grov/ uglier”. 'Tis too bad the editor of the B. S. columns fountain of expostulations remains dried up. It’s a good thing the “understudies" of some members of the staff arc more active than the members them selves.

Contrib.—“What’s the matter with the jokes I sent you?” Editor—“Well some of them I’ve seen before. The rest I haven’t seen yet”. Mrs. Smith.—Did you sweep behind the door?” Va.—“Yes, nearly everything”. Mr. Estes—“Why haven’t you your lesson ?” Mary Lil—“I couldn’t study; the lights were out”. Mr. Estes—“Why didn’t you turn them on and send him home”. Bob—Give me a cigarette, old man; cigarette smoking is an expensive habit, isn’t it? Roscoe—Yes, especially if you have friends who never buy any. Elizabeth—I’m going to sell kisses at the charity bazarr tonight. Do you think $1 earh is too much to charge for them? Bill—No people at these affairs ex pect to pay more than a thing is worth. Eliz. Hackney—“I wrote a song about you; it’s called “Don t say nay . Ham—“Where did you 'vrite it— in a livery stable”?
