Six queens blues October 23, 1931 JESTER Hannah Boylan (after eating chestnuts) : “I just swallowed a great big worm.” M. E. Britt: “Hadn't you better take something for it?” Boylan: “No, I’ll let the thing starve.” And you’ve heard about the Scot who wanted to give his girl a rush—so he took her home on the subway. Father (entering unexpect edly) : “Well, I never—” Daughter: “Oh, Daddy, you must have.” Then there’s the sad, the hor ribly sad case of the absent-mind ed professor who mailed out all his French post cards to his wife’s relations. Up in the airplane they had thought For wedding was the proper spot, A wheel within the darn thing broke Just as the words the parson spoke; Did this disturb them ? Not at all. They got married in the fall! Prof, (at last class) : “My dear children, when is your education really complete?” Chorus—“After a Davidson party.” A local motor cop has printed on his personal calling card : “Give me a trial and I'll see that you get one.” Feefie: “Do you think I can make your fraternity?” Foe fum: “Sure, we gotta have some one to snub.” M. Nickle: “Do spectacles help your eyes any? .S. E. Motte: “Do they! They’ve kept girls from hitting me!” As the pardoned murderer said: “No noose, is good news.” She called her husband Daisy because some daisys at home and some daisys isn’t.” Dr. Greene (to class): Green paint may be removed from the seat of a pair of trousers with a bottle of ordinary turpentine, a stiff brush and a pair of scissors! We would like to remind all our professors of our lecture courses, that the longer the spoke the greater the tire. (My dear, do 3'ou agree?) Gamma Sigma and Pi Delta Initiate New Members Anyone who chanced to be in Burwell Hall on the afternoon of Octolier 15th would instantly have sensed that something unusua' was about to take place. Small groups of girls stood huddled together before the closed doors of Gamma Sigma and Pi Delta Society Halls, These girls tried valiantly to keep up their usual chatter and barter, but a frighten ed look would steal over their faces when one would ask, “what will they do to us?” Suddenly a door opened and a black-robed figure stood Irefore it. Four girls were ushered into the darkened hall. The girls outside the hall murmured expectantly: “Did j'ou see them pull her in,” said one, and the others shudder ed. After a few minutes four more girls were summoned, and this process was repeated until all had been admitted and sub jected to the mystic sites of the initiation. After everyone had been ini tiated, the doors were thrown open and the reception began. The girls were once more talking in groups, but this time it was easy, relieved chatter. The fright occasioned by the initiation had vanished and all was laughter and jollity. The new girls were heartily welcomed by the old meml^ers and everyone concen trated upon the business of having a thoroughly good time. Delight ful refreshments were served and everyone left the hall feeling that she had spent a most enjoyable afternoon. —Mary Frances Austelle. Offices Given To Stu dent Publications Two of the student publica tions, the “Edelweiss,” and the Queens Blues,” have been given the two end rooms in Morrison Hall by Dean McLean, to be used for offices. This has been a need of these publications for a lono- , o time. A place has always been needed in which to put the ]iaper together and to keep Queens Blues material at hand. The annual has also found it necessary ^o have a room so that they can be systematic and businesslike. They appreciate the kindness of the Dean in allowing them to have these rooms and only hope that their publications will be im proved somewhat through this advantage. PERSONALS (Continued from page three) Did you hear what Mary tluy said the other day? Well, it happened that in Biology class, Miss Cathey was talking about a certain specimen and in speaking of it called it a one-cell animal. Mary insisted that Miss Cathey was wrong, that it was a unicel lular animal. These Frosh! Man ! Dear ol’ Jane spent the night with us over in Morrison Wednesday night and did it seem good to have her l^ack there. The Hall just doesn’t seem natural without her this year—it’s too quiet! Come back, Jane ! Little ol’ Laura Chapman came up to spend the day last wmek and crazy Jack Hoover came the wmek before. Laura is just having a hi ol' time wdiile Jack is—wdiew —I almost got it wrong! Oh, yes, and Jack is taking a luisiness course. Fanny and Jane Bradley went home for the wmek-end and came l)ack all pe])ped u]) to tackle an other week of Psych. Malvine and Mary Young gave the Ka])]ia Kappa Chi feed. Such ood — me oh, my. You can'1 imagine. Is the lost ever to be found ? Ask Martha ! Home wuis the foremost of Helen Dean’s thoughts and there she proceeded to go last week end. Don’t ask why she came back all flurried. Mary and Alva gave the feed for the Phi Mu’s Sunday. How did they ever get collected long enough to think about getting food together? Helen YYll wmnt down to dear ol Chester and did she see some one who eats, drinks and sleeps music as she does—wmll, she told me ’bout it! DAVIDSON & WOLFE I WHOLESALE GROCERS 319 South College Street $ CHARLOTTE, N. C. Girls Get Samples Lux Toilet Soap Friday night at dinner. Dean McClean announced that after dinner she would distribute in her office sample boxes of Lux and bars of the toilet soap. Con- se([uently, as soon as the girls left the dining hall, there was a mad rush for the Dean’s office. There, the crowd pushed and squirmed and hurried, until each girl had received her quota and gone' aAvay content. To anyone who happened to be journeying through the dormi tories the next day, there appear ed in each suite a heavily laden line of freshly washed launderie, sparkling wdiite from its recent bath. And strangely enough, each girl’s face wms wonderfully smooth looking and radiant; in fact she looked at least ten years younger. Is it no wonder that this is Holl}wvood’s favorite com plexion care ?
