Let’s hope that the nations of the world don’t get into a war over dis- armament. * * • « Most men are better acquainted "with faith and hope than they are with charity. * • * • Poor men and poor umbrellas gen erally get left. * * » * Some men will stand up for the fair sex anywhere—except in a street car * • * » Occasionally a man climbs so high that he roosts above everj’body else— then he begins to get lonesome. • • • * No woman is an old maid ’til she dresses like one. • « » • The smile of a woman is not always what it appears to be on the surface. • « « * Every little girl goes through the spell of playing house. The problem is to keep her that way after the wed dings. • • • • Mavbe women would kiss and make up oftener than they do only they are afraid that they will kiss the make-up off. • • • • “Let there be light/’ said the raven- haired beauty as she drew forth the peroxide bottle. (Continued from Page 1). went to the ho1:el and asked the Clark” where to put their car. He told them to park it in the “Hillyard” which was just behind the building. “Next morning when the “Cox” be gan to crow, our friends arose and took their car to a black*“Smith” shop for repair. Then, after a short visit to the “TayloT^’ shop, they went on their way. Boon they saw a man who could “Rakestraw” faster than any one else. On' reaching another small town not far from their destination, our heroes witnessed a “Fite” between two dogs. One of the dogs was evidently mad since the report w'as that it had been seen running “Amuck” in the streets of the town. “Doffy” pulled out his Gunn” and‘shot one of the dogs which ended the “Fite.” ••These young men were nearing tlieir destination but there was still something of interest ahead of them. “Colclough” was driving down the highway at a pretty lively rate when suddenly upon rounding a curve, he saw a farmer driving a “Spring” wagon. The farmer had just started to cross the rond. It was impossible to stop so the fender of the “Hudson” struck the wa^on. The animal which was hitched to the wagon began to “Bray” violently. The old farmer leaped down and was about to tell the boys what he thought. However, when he saw how Green” they were he simply said, The fender is “Dentsom.” Without further mishap the boys soon arrived at the College and had the privilege of seeing the beautiful red and “White” buildings which, together with the large “Roundtrees,” make our campus so attractive. At least these young heroes had the opportunity to “Register” and now they are making good as Elon students.” Remember, Gentle Reader, that this is only a tale told by some one in a “Bull Session” in one of the rooms of North Dormitory. Anyway, the occur rences related here were of Freshmen and, needless to say, no Sophomore would be so “Green” as these men were. Dr. W. M. Jay, Head of the Eng lish Department, conducted Chapel Friday. He used the theme of “Mak ing Good Our Opportunities.” He read eight verses from St. Matthew as a basis for his remarks. He also called attention to an interesting poem en titled “The Water Mill” which helped illustrate the helpful points he brought out. , After reading these short selections the speaker delivered a short but ex cellent talk. He first discussed some of his former experiences which were interesting to all and which bore direct ly on the subject discussed. The speaker mentioTied that wonderful pic ture “The King of Kings,” telling how one of the scenes had caused him to think of the great opportunity Judas Iscariot sacrificed when he betrayed our Lord instead of serving Him. He brought out very forcefully that we as college students should endeavor to make the very best of our opportun ities while here, and when we look back on our college days we shall not regret our actions as did Judas after betraying Jesus. Following Dr. Jay’s talk, President Harper spoke a few words in regard to the Defiance-Eloon basketball games which will be played here on February the 1st and 2nd. He brought to mind the fact that this is the first time we have had the privilege of entertaining any of the students of Defiance Col lege. We were very glad to leam that these representatives of our sister col lege were coming so soon, and we are sure that our entire student body will help to make their \-isit a pleasant one.
