Activitus Tries Sure Cure;
Seeks Poise And Allure
by Winkle Harris
and Sybil Haskins
“Carramba,” shouted Aetivitus,
as she bit off the end of her cigar,
IVe found it, the secret of every
woman’s success! ”
A sigh of utter anguish came
from the desk “OH, NO! Not that,
anything but that! After that face
lifting at the Bon Ton Salon, and
your hair turning green from 'Os
car’s ointment’, it does look like
you’d give up!” Legs La Rue
crawled out of the depths of her
Psychology book and gave her room
mate several knowing looks.
“Ha! Double ha! John Paul Jones
never gave up, why should I? Be
sides, tliis plan is fool-proof. It’s
a thirteen-day success course adver
tised in Better Beauty Magazine.
Listen. ‘Do You want personality,
poise and a perfect figure? Do you
want to know the trade secret of
every glamor girl? The Pompadour
beauty plan gives you all these and
more as well. Below are given some
of the simple instructions to be fol
lowed. Send for the complete suc
cess course wdiich will be delivered
to you FREE. Just give the post
man Fifty (50) dollars upon deliv
ery to cover cost of mailing.
For the first day, the diet is as
follows: For breakfast: A large
glass of prune juice, one toasted
cracker and a glass of goat’s milk.
For lunch: avocado salad on a crisp
lettuce leaf, one serving of kippered
herring, a Ry-crisp and half an apri
cot. For dinner: one serving (small)
of Rumanian goulash, two Spanish
onions (half-cooked) a glass of
goat’s milk and a Ry-crisp, with
rice for dessert.
A few simple health rules should
be followed in connection with this
beauty plan heartily endorsed by
BETTER BEAUTY magazine, the
magazine for all women insterested
in themselves, Mmn-let’s see. Walk
four miles, get sixteen hours sleep.,
— . . . I’ll skip all that and get to
the exercises. Legjs, read them out
to me and I’ll get on the floor and
do ’em.
“0. K. it’s not my hide. Lie
prone, stiffen legs and hold them
parallel to the floor for the count
of fifty. One—two—three—four—. ’ ’
“P’gosh sakes, can’t you count
any faster?”
' ‘ Fivesivseveneightnineteneleven-i
tw—Acti, are you all right? What
was that crash?”
“I’m only trying to be beautiful
not join an acrobatic troup. What
did you think it was a thunder
storm? My legs collapsed. What’s
next?’ ’
“ ‘To reduce hips, lie prone and
with arms held to sides, roll for
thirty minutes. Start rolling.”
“Well — all —^ I — can—say—is—
there—must — be a quicker—way
—to Aouch! Oh, woe! I’m ruined
for life! Why didn’t you tell me
I was rolling straight to the door?”
“Oh, Acti, look at the next one,
it’s really a whiz. Stand on head,
moving legs as though riding a bicy
cle. Wonderful for the waist!”
“Oh, No, not me. I can’t even
stand on my feet.”
“Chicken, come on I’ll prop you
against the wall. You can surely
do that. Up we go! ”
‘ ‘ The least you could do is not
be so blamed cheerful about the
wliole thing. Hey, there goes the
phone. Legs—Come back here, I’m
gonna fall. Legs — you wretch ■—
oohhh!’ ’
Acti got some beautiful get well
cards and even a dozen red roses
from Thaddeus Henry. But she was
heard to mumble for weeks after
ward “Beautiful goats from Rum
anian Goulash exercising on a Ry-
crisp! Bah, Humbug!”

that the abolishing of the Honor
System may perhaps put the school
in some danger, or at least put the
Student Government to the trouble
of another securing vote. I am far
from presuming to affirm or think
that the school is in danger at pre
sent, or as things now stand; but
we know not how soon it may be
when the Honor System is repealed.
To conclude: Whatever some may
think of the great advantages to
students by this favourite scheme,
I do very much apprehend that in
six months time after the act is
passed for the extirpation of the
Honor System, the tuition may fall
at least one per cent. And since
that is fifty times more than ever
the wisdom of our college genera
tion though fit to venture for the
preservation of the Honor System,
there is no reason why we should
be at so great a loss, at two thou
sandths of a per cent merely for
the sake of destroying it.

America. These provisions are: (1)
the power of the Congress to
declare war, with the majority
votes in both Houses, and (2) the
power of the president to make
treaties, “by and with the consent
of the Senate,” and “provided that
two-thirds of the Senators present
concur.”
How to reconcile these two pro
visions wdth the realities of thd
world situation is the big problem.
