I Qabby ^ertie “While it’s necessary to be truth- il at home, one can always lie on TRUSTEES ARE HONOR GUESTS (continued from page one) has recently come into the lime-light by prophesying the present cold wave in one of his publications—Mr. J. B. Goslin, of the Union Republican Printing Co. Seated near him is an other public-spirited, community-mind ed individual, Mr. H. A. Pfohl, of the Fogle Brothers lumber business. Well, well, if we aren’t about swamp- :d with with men of community spirit tonight. There’s our kind-faced friend, Mr. Bob Shore of the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. at the same table. Our guests for this evening seem to be of quite diversified natures. I see at my right a renowned bridge-player and globe trotter, Mr. W. F. Shaffner, locally employed in the real estate bus- Pardon me just one moment, ladies and gentlemen. There seems to be a light disturbance. Ah, did you hear that? It was a burst of laughter a witticism of Dr. Howard Rond- thaler at the expense of some hacked individual. The contact is quite ; tonight. But, my friends of the air, the pro gram must be brought to a close. We will see you again on nest Founders’ Day in 1935. Until then, good-bye and pleasant reading. Philadelphia — Domestic coinage fell but foreign coinage increased at the Philadelphia mint during 1933. While the minting of American coins fell from 20,030,750, the 1932 total, to 15,118,000, the decrease value was from $68,106,620 to $12,- 178,600. The explaination lies in the fact that 14,360,000 of the coins turn ed out in the past twelve months were one-cent pieces. The mint coined 15,240,000 pieces for foreign countries, mo.stly I-atin- American nations. This is a numeri cal increase over the 9,756,096 foreign coins minted in 1932, but, because of fluctuating exchange rates, the mint attempted no estimate of the c value in dollars. WILL ROGEES’ AVOIRDUPOIS Will Rogers is one of the mosi deceptive men in Hollywood when it comes to the question of weight. To look casually at the famous aetor-wit-comedian, one would .judge him to weigh somewhere between 1(50 and 170, but under ordinary con ditions, he tips the scales at close to 200. He gets a big kick on midways and at fairs by fooling the professional weight guessers. Once, in Shanghai, a Chinese expert, with a reputation of never having been wrong more than a couple of pounds either way. tore a set of scales apart after he had guessed Rogers’ weight as 17S and the comedian registered 200 on the dial. Rogers has a long, solid body and his legs are comparatively short. Tliis is the secret of his unusual deception. (NSFA)—At the University of Southern California the “Tapping Method” was suggested to enforce the honor system in examinatiotis. Tapping to expose cheating is a meth od of warning students who are try ing to overdo the rules. Observers of the violation stop it by tapping their feet upon the floor. This is taken up by the whole class and the result is cessation from cheating.— —Swarthmore Phoenix (NSFA)—Forty of the most bril liant high school and prep school dents entering Temple University from Philadelphia and vicinity this year have been put in an experimental group, relieved of most of the regular college student routine. No definite course of study will have to be taken by the group; no credits earned; no marks given; class attendance will not be compulsory. The first two years will be devoted to study of world problems and how to solve them. The last two years will be devoted specialization in the field of the s ,Good hcmEs , School^ .I^APERS, SCORPIONS STING NEW MEMBERS !

HOUSE OF HORRORS My dears, a ghastly nightmare! I went to a circus-fair. Saw friend. Marguerite, Singing “Tweet, tweet, tweet,” Strung up by her golden hair. Mary Nelson was there, too. All dressed in fetching blue. And on each hand Was a handsome man Enthralled by her “Coo, coo, coo.” From a trapeze swung Leon With gusto gnawing a bone And painfully pale— Her laugh was replaced by a moan. In a cage stood our pale Lena— A fiendish, laughing hyena, She giggled in rapture At her latest capture— You see, Gerogie Stone, had just seen Pink elephants led by Miss Hadley Singing loudly and, as ever, badly. Ran after Miss “At” In guise of a rat, While Hadley chased after quite mad- ly- With the cobras was Janie Rondtha ler Just seeing how loud she could holler, Her pappa said, “Hush, You’re meat for snake’s mush.

Maria Garrett, dad blame ’er. Was risking her neck as lion tamer, With gat at her side Goose-bumps on her hide She quaked lest the big beast should maim her— Mr. Curlee and Mr. McEwen (Just guess what the sweet things Paced ’round in a cage. Gave vent to their rage In discord like tiger—cats mewin’. Lucy James, the feminine dandy. With lipstick and powder-puff handy. Slipped on a banana Shrieked out in soprano “Come, buy peanuts, poj)corn, and candy!” A fright, to be sure, was Ratch Carroll Decked out in a big, bulging barrel. She’d gained so much weight From the “Good Bars” she’d ate Pardon me, but for lack of a word to rhyme with “Carroll” and “Bar rel,” I decided to wake up.
