“Tiptoe to the tulips—
Myrtle’s mighty tall—
Two lips meet two lips.
And lipstick covers all.”
“Some men smile in the evening;
Other men smile at the dawn.
But the man worth while
Is the man who can smile
When his two front teeth are
gone.”

Things on the campus we could
do without: Stew beef—bad man
ners—^people who disturb others
in chapel—snoots—poor sports
manship—bores—people who are
not temperate in their eating
(hogs to you)—so much ballyhoo
on the third term—clipped heads
—and basketball games every
Saturday night.
Things we need more of.
SMILES—money (no cracks)—
sunshine—social life—“regular”
people — love (ah, me) — better
chapel programs—traffic through
Mars Hill (for hitch-hikers)—and
those lovely moonlit nights.
Do we all know that soft soap

Study in Youth
Carpe diem then, as Horace
tells us, let us improve upon the
shining hour! Study in proper
time, right now, at this, the one
ideal time in your young lives
when it is fit and proper for you
to study, and great will be your
reward in after life, your gratifica
tion and peace of mind at having
done so. Conversely would any
failure to study now be a lasting
reproach to you, and an ever
present shortcoming in after
years.
He Dieu! Si j eusee etudie,
wrote Prancais Villon, France’s
leading poetical genius of the 16th
century, who ran on evil days
and turned to banditing and road
side robbing.
He Dieu! Si f eusee etudie,
Au temps de ma jeunesse folle,
Et a de bonnes moeurs dedie,
J’aimais, maison et couche
molle.
Mais, helas! Je fugais Vecole,
Conime fait le mauvais enfant,
En ecrivant ces’re parole,
A peu que le coeur ne me fend!
Whereof a free translation:
Oh God! Had I but studied
At the time of my madcap youth
And walked in right ways.
I would be enjoying home and
. soft couch.
But alas! I fled school
As doeth the wayward child—
In writing which avowal
My heart bursts well-nigh!
But thinking somehow or other
it were a matter of duty to you,
em I not giving you the very ad
vice I promised not to give, and
actually venturing upon the very
educational matters, I was to ab
stain from?
Douloi Esmen, we are servants,
as your revered teacher, Greek
and Bible scholar, and past Presi
dent, Dr. Robert Lee Moore,
would say with Saint Luke. Nor
can I, knowing somewhat of your
college records, mention his name
without that of his noble com
panion in life’s pilgrimage, Mrs.
Edna Corpening Moore.
At that, let me thank you for
all your patience and courtesy.

Since many students want to
learn more about a certain famous
boys’ home here, I have com
piled the following information
to help anyone decide whether he
wants to go there to room. The
house rules are as follows:
Towels changed weekly.
Dogs are not allowed in bunks.
Candles and hot water charged
extra.
No Sunday poker fees.
Board $2.00 per sq. ft. Meals
extra.
Spiked boots must be removed
at night.
Anyone troubled with night
mares will find a halter on the
bedpost.
The hotel is convenient to Hol
combe funeral home and the City
cemetery.
Hearses to hire at 25c per hr.
Guests who wish to do a Lttle
driving may find hammer and
nails in the closet.
Guests who wish to get up
without being called are fed self-
rising flour for supper.
If the lamp goes out, take a
feather out of the pillow; that’s
light enough for anybody.
Guests are requested not to
speak to the dumbwaiters.
Guests who wish to take a bath
have only to raise the mattress
to find the bed spring.
Don’t worry about paying your
bills; the house is supported by
foundations.
