'The entire contest was characterized with a spirit of daitiness and refinement. After this part of the pro- grf.ari was completed, a delight ful social hour was enjoyed and tea was served. Mr, Bing Miller ooured. We are prone to wonder just v/hat action was tfxlcen by the Stu dent Boby to determine who v;ill fill the positions of Editor, Bus iness Mgr,, etc. on the staff of THE OAK, Apparently Mr, Crov/ell has undertook to fill the pos ition of Editor, while Kr. Chan dler has carried on the duties of Business Mgr, So fca’ as we can remember the only meeting of the Student Body to discuss this matter was held some time ago, and the ohly official act ion taken by that group v;as to select Mr, Chandler as chairmoji of a comxiiittee to secure var ious publishing companies. This action could in no way be con strued to elected ajay individual as Business. Mgr, of the Annual. We are still at a loss as to how Mr. Crovjell became Editor, V/e do not in any way mean to de tract from the ability of thsee two gentlemen in holding these positions on the Annual stf,\ff as it is our humble opinion that they are both well qualified to do so. However, v/e would li]:e to- see that positions which are supposed to be filled by elected represenatives of the StuQent Body are fulled in that mrjiner, ■IS* ”'{• ~/c '■«* •vt"?;* •/'■**''* ■55' ■5S’ Then there was the time that Aunt Minnie, vras out in the Yel lowstone Park.

They bre\’/ed their stron gest coffee, but to no avail. Un cle Charlie was iiiLidoubtedly very ill. Tne old doctor was called in and he told Charlie's parents that there was onl^’ one hope for him. That hope was to get some of the extremely strong coffee berr-- ies which grew on the. other sic^e of the mountain. Prom these berr ies they must brew the str&ng-, est coffee that could be brewed. It must be strong enough to f float an iron v/edge upright. I'loxt morning, great, groat. Uncle Charlie's father started out acr oss the mountain until he cnjie to the berries ’.vhich he gathered and took home with him. From these ho and his wife, Amanda, brewed the no\/ famous black-coffee-that-will float-an-iron-v;edge-upright, How ever, ¥ncle Chnrlie was so weak that he could not raise up in.bed in order to drink this concoct ion, His father pulled one of the strong blond hairs from his wifos head, punched the pith from itd center, placed it in Charlies mouth -and then poured the coffee dov.Ti his throat,Uncle Charlie died.
