When you read this hold up one finger to represent each friend. If you are honest one hand will stay ih your pocket. “Now this is a sorry situation,” you say. “I can do better than that.” Well no one will argue with you. Everybody agrees that you can, that is, you can it you ti-y. How many of your fellow students do you think would care one way or the other whether you came to school another day or not? The answer will amaze you. Look around and pick out a per-sbn at random and decide W’hy he should care. Did you give him sornething today? Did you give him a nod of recognition this morning: or a smile: or Just a few ■words? Did you help to make his day a little more pleasant. Now you know why he doesn't care. It gives you a funny feeling to know that you mean nothing to people, doesn’t it? THE BARD THEENGIMEER What Shakespeare would have said about a Hangover: Shall I compare thee to a fien'l fi-om Hell? Thou art more savage and more obdurate. Thy cloven hoofs beat on my brain pell-mell When those sweet dreams of beai and gin abate. Sometimes too hot the eye of Heaven shines And my brain cooks, yet it is coM as clay Compared to that great searing pain the wines of yesternight leave burning heri today. Hut all thy tyrannous plans shall go tor naught. Thy picks and hammers crumble as the dust, Jn thine arch-fore, brave Bromo Seltzer bought I.^t night in Campus i>i-ug I plao^ my trust. For fifty cents is but a trlflin:,' fee To hire the warrior that brins,-s death to thee. —Coleman Yornger. Missouri "Showme'’ By MAC Help. Keep Our Canipus Clean Uehold yc that wonder of men, the ENGIiNEER. Lo, he risoth and stayeth ud iate, often ho greoteth Ihe rising .sun and the setting moon. Ye know him by the circles beneath his eyes and the slide rule in his hand. He loveth, indeed, the damsel which he claspeth to his bosom, but she hath a longing look; for her heart would break. Though ho admireth her car riage, it is but for the skeletal structure and the stress thereof; though he praiseth her grace, it is but for the mechanics concerned. Verily, ho stroketh her tresses tensile strength thereot; he fold- eth her hand to estimate the ther mal generation therefrom. Yea, tnough they walk through the Forests of Hort, she shall fear no ovil, for the curse is upon him; he babbleth unceasingly- of vapor pr^ures, dynamo-s, steam tables, thermo(3ynamic.s, and logarithms. He is a slave to hi.? learning, he ruineth his health and eye.'* with much learning; hi. overload- cth his brain. He windeth up In an apprentlce-ship of twenty-and- fSve shekels per week, ordered ,, arpUnd by aQnic two-bit commerce student. . .-rrrPenn State Froth. Now here's the way l look at it — if our Boy.? 'had 'Ju'st been a wee bit hotter out at the Enka gym the other night, poor Ol’ Campbell world have been a gone duck, and I mean REAL. GONE. Still, the Bulldogs came bo close to chewing them up that it was no laughing matter—for the Cam els. ... I can’t help feeling that the cheering from the sidelines did a great deal to pep up the game. I hardly see how there have been any better cheering, but' maybe if we liail yelled one more time there at the end, the boys could have managed somehow to elim inate that narrow margin which threw ufi out of the tournament. . . . However, that’s all water under the bridge. We’re proud of the showing inade' by the Bulldogs during the last season, but we’re also anticipating a rip-roarin’ time when the baseball season starts. ... I hear the Dramatics de partment is taking a trip down to Chapel Hill come spring The A-B players have always made a good .showing down at the dramatic.^ festival, and are sure to do so again this year. . . . Guess what I heard the Dtiier night? — the official photo grapher of Tlie Ctiinpus Ci-ier an;l The Summit, serenading (on his guitar) a pretty red-head. Where? —at The Weepers meeting, while everyone else was playing The Game! . . . By the way, The Weepers arc throwing a big one soon— a banquet and dance for all radio, journalism and dramatics students and their dates. At cinco pesos per couplo it should be good. Snows may snow and Marob winds may blow but when is your birthday? We know! Birthday greetings to June Dougherty on the 1st and to ‘‘Herm’’ better known as Robert Pressley on the 2nd. A big Happy Birthday on the 12th to Robert Colkitt, Gwendolyn Dalton, and Jack Milbee. To anyone we may have over looked and to all w'e say, “Best wishes and many happy returns of the day.”—HD. JIAUTHii’S BOXES The Hurrian Anatomy studeats are analyzing systems of the hu man body. “Martha’s” bones en able them to gain knowledge of the skeleton. , When a Pre-med. is asked, to define the cranium he immediately answers in detail. "The cranium is one of many bones comprising the magnificent framework of the human body. It.'? specific location is in th« head. Better known as the skull, it is precisely tlwt x>art of the skull which encloses the brain.” The embalmed cats numerous students have been gi-imacing at are the means of studjing rava- cles. Later on in the semester the circulatory sy.stem \rill be dis sected. The students hope to re assert the theory that arteries are actually red and veins are blue. They plan to count the red! aad white corpuscles in an average dirculatory system. Should you want to have your blood typed around the end of the semester just see one of our future boni- fide MD’s. Clubs To Sponsor Banquef > Dance “T h e Weeper.s.’’ Journalism Club of Asheville-Biltmore, in co operation with the Radio and Speech Departments, plans It sponsor a semi-formal banquet and dance which will be held March 12 th. The club plans to make this dance the most elaborate of the year. Dr. and Mrs. Glenri L. Bush- ey will be honored giiefits. Plans are being made to have a guest speaker. A location -for the dance has not yet been festablished, Committie.‘j for Invitations and decorations: have' been choSen. “Boys,” said the clergyman to Ibe Sunday School clas.s, “you must learn never to lose your tem pers under the most vexing cir cumstances. To illust'^ate, while I’ve been talking, a fly has landel on my nose; I do not fwcar, I do not blaspheme, I merely say, "Go away fly!" ‘DAMN, IT’S A BEE’." Maidens Lament: He tells me he’s sorry For all the thingB he’s done. "Why should he feel sorry? I had a lot of fun. If you’re man (mean) enough to do it, I can suggest a wonder ful way to get even with a neigh bor who plajis his radio until 2 a.m. Call him up at -1 a.m. and tell him how' much you enjoyed it.
