ELOJSf COLLEGE ALMA MATER CLEAVBS PLACB HAVE YOUR CLOTHES CLEANED AND PRESSED WHERE 'lOV GET A GUARANTEED JOB MY MOTTO: THE BEST IN PRESSING AND EATS ZONA GALE ON FREEDOM EXAMINATIONS AND THE OPEN MIND Zona Gale, author of “Faint Per fume,” “Miss Lulu Bett” and other novels, and a prominent liberal, wns re-, cently interviewed by a reporter of th ‘ * Harvard Crimson. ’ ’ “Complete freedom,” said Miss Gal “is the goal of education as it is of evecything else. Every branch of hu man activity is undergoing an exteii sion of freedom today. Eeligion, art, government, education, t!iey are aJl changing their form, outgrowing them and advancing to a higher plane. . i'Jxaminatioiis were going on at Har vard and j\liss Gale expressed lier opinion of them: “The whole examina- tio’n system is wrong. It depends too much upon luck and a certain kind oi cleverness. It is just another addition to the useless dj’udging, which keeps education back.” . Frankly, she continued: “I do not £ee any immediate remedy for tlie situ ation. But till.- ultimate solution is the abolition of all examinations and tlie substitution of class discussions as tbe only method of testing a student’s knowledge. TLis, of co.urse, will neces sitate smaller classes, or more teachers, or both, and that seems hard to’ realize with the ever increasing growth of our universities. Perhaps the rise of a jur - ior college may help to solve the prob lem. “Tliere are a great many practical difficulties in the [lath of a greater edu cational freedom, but an open mind and a liberal idealism will do much toward overcoming them. “Man will always remain man, but he 'can change just as radically as the carbon, which is always carbon, may change from coal to a diamond, and in this process a free education is es sential.”—New Student. HOW THEY ARE KISSED The Brenau girl bows her stately head, An.d fixes her stylish lips In a firm, hard w'ay—and lets ^eni go, And sips, and sips, and sips. The Columbia girl has a w^ay of her own. In a clinging, soulful way; She takes a kiss that’s just as big As a wagon load of hay. The Converse girl gets a grip on her self And carefully takes off her hat; Then grabs the man in a frenzied way Like a terrier shaking a rat. The Chicora girl just arches her eyes So cool—so cold—so glum; She sticks out her lips like an oppn book, And keeps on chewing gum. But tlie Winthro^^ girl never says a word, She’s too gentle, timid and tame; But she grabs a young man by the back of the neck, And gets there just the same. —The Davidsonian.

Love is like a trunk—if you don’t check it in time, you have to express it. Love is what terapts a man to tell foolish lies to a woman and a woman to tell the fool truth to a man. Love is misery, sweetened with im agination, salted with tears, spiced witii doubt, flavored with novelty, and swal lowed with your eyes shut. Love is only an episode in a man’s life, but the entire history of a wo man’s life.—The Log. ' I’ve eaten my chow when I’ve found it, I I’ve boned and flunked in my time. J’ve had my lessons a plenty, And some of them were prime. Oh—some of the profs were boresome, Others were nice as could be; While some made me glad, but the most made me sad. So learn about flunking from me. Now’, IVe taken my fun where I found it, I’ve dragged and .flunked in my time I’ve studied like a regular aP sinner Till I was thin as a dime. Now, I’ve flunked and I’m thinking— Dreaming of college to see ? So be warned of my lot (but I’ll bet you will not) So learn about flunking from me. “I call my girl ‘Grapefruit.’ ” “Why?” “Because every time I squeeze her she hits me in the eye.” BLANK VERSE “The wind is blowing through trees; The old gray mare is on her knees; J feel quite like a piece of cheese— I have a cold, and cannot sneeze.” the THE MOST COMPLETE And unusual stock of beautiful Hats in Burlington.
