QUOTING THE FACULTY “Taking it in the l)y and large, they all have— “Who’s they?’’ “Will you quit interrupting me. If you'd ever give me time, I’d finish what I was saying so that you could save your bretitli.” “As I was saying,” the indignant edi tor continued, among and adding to the to the hubbub of the publication room. It’s always the same up there—and really some of the most unique acci dents and conversations provoking feig; gles are never heard elsewhere. Oh, it’s a great place for gossip. Now to re peat the editor’s choice news! “What type is this?” “Say, do you know where the Hi Y article has hiked to?” “Hey, you, is there anything else to tyiie.” “Type? In the basket! Look in the bask(‘t! Get that article Jiimes is writ ing. Ernest has one in 311. Go get it.” “.l.s / Haying, 'taking it in the by and larged,” every teacher at this school has some expression all her own. “All of you remind me of morons— nothing more and nothing Ichh.”—This as a belated reporter for, probably, the fourth time since he started to write an article, asks how to spell something. 'That’s Miss lone Grogan's speech if you hut knew' it. ■‘/f you kncic yonr English,'" Leila George Cram, I wouldn’t have to re write the whole thing. To quote Miss Morrow, “If you knew your English’ what ii grand and glorious piei'e of work you could produce!” “Mercy damn," why don’t you—“Oh, hush—yes I know it’s rather strong, but gracious, it looks like you could spell all right all right!” “Too litany errors! My stars, will you never learn to write headlines, Ernest. I wish 1 had the chance E. R. Phillips does when typists erase. I’d give you a zero!” “7 ran out of something to say five minutes before the bell rang'—imagine that—” “Oh, yea? Laugh that off. You ran out of something to say. Tee hee!” “Simpleton. I was efreriug to Mr. Billy Blair, if you please.” “Besides 'to talk when others are talking is, the height of conceit,' so says Miss Caldwell.” “Then you're running over wdth it.” “(iirls, don't be like that,’ says Mr. Miller, and 1 say so too. ‘Do yon see what 1 mean,’ to quote Miss Lesley.” “Neither do I." Station O-F-F-l-C-E—signing off. Pro fessor 1‘hillips trusting the parting shot. “We’re going to have grass here if I have to make all of you go in the back way.” “Let’s get going. We’ve got exactly fifteen minutes to get to the printers before class. Dear Crystal Gazer: Please tell me how many crumbs there are in a loaf of bread. AMBITIOUS. Ambitious: There are seventeen thousand and nine hundred crumbs in one-half of a slice of bread. If this be true, there will be 35,800 crumbs in a whole slice. Judging from the size of a Merita loaf, my oiystal assures me that there are twenty slices to a loaf. Therefore, there must he, approximately, 710,000 crumbs ill a single loaf of R. oaf of bread. CRYSTAL GAZEH Fond Crystal G-azer: IIow many stars are there in the sky? X. Y. Z. X. Y. Z.: I have reasons to believe that the to tal number of stars is just about suffi cient to provide one of these celestial luminaries for each inhabitant of the earth.

Wise Crystal Gazer: IIow many pigs are there in “pigs in the blanket?” ' CURIOUS. Curious: My crystal gleams brightly, and it wishes me to remind you, and other curious students, that sausage rolled in pastry and baked is called “pigs in the blanket.” The crystal shows me that 40 ibs. of sausage can be made from one pig, and that there are 16 links to a pound. Therefore, I am pleased to tell you that there is 1-640 of a pig in “pigs in the blanket.” CRYSTAL GAZEIi. “You’ll ruin your stomach, old man, drinking that stuff.’* “That’s alright.

Students Your Credit Is Good DIAMONDS WATCHES REPAIR WORK Easy Terms IN THE HANDS OF CHIEF CHEWING GUM Exclusive interview of Christopher Columbus, High Life reporter, with Chief Chewing Tjum. Hear ye, good people, in the year 1391, just two days after the discovery of America by the Indians and Cortez, I write these accounts for the illustra tions journal Highe Lifey. First I want to make a true confes sion. I cannot write. Now I can pro ceed with my memoirs. In this year I met Chief Chewing Gum, the big stick of Wriggley Spear mint Chewing Confederacy. The treach erous chief surrounded me with his cul tivated savages and led me into cap tivity. He laid my head on a block of ice cream, recited a uurcery rhyme, and lifted his axe. My life hung in the balance. Suddenly, as the axe descend ed, it became entangled in his chewing gum and stuck fast. My life was saved. But say! With a muttered gesture he seized a tomahawk, whirled it aloft, and brought it slowly down. I winked at a sly Indian maid stand ing near. I promised her some candy to save me. Poker Hunter was not dumb. Up to her father she fiew, fled for ray life- for the candy. Her father yielded; my life was spared; I was set free; Pefeer Hunter asked for the candy. I gave her a marshmallow. She begged for binothef—and well—greediness had its own reward. As for Chewing Gum’s daughter, I stuck her; I gave her fudge candy, and she is now fastened to a tree.

CHOOSE DIFFERENT CASTS “Cosette,” a portion of “Les Misera- bles,” by Victor Hugo, written in play form by French students of G. H. S., I was dramatized before the French Club in chapel Thursday, December 5. Those taking part in the play were chosen from French III classes taught by Miss Estelle Mitchell, head of the French department. In order to give equal chances to pu pils, a different cast was chosen for each scene. The play, “Cosette,” as written by the students, was comprised of three acts, each act having three scenes. “Les Miserables,” from Avhieh the play was taken, is the story of Jean Val Jean, a galley slave, striving to make - good. The Battle of Waterloo, the story of Cosette and her mother, and the life of the Thanardiera all were woven together in this book. “Cosette,” however, is only the part of the story where Jean Val Jean, escaped galley slave, comes to the home of the Then- ardiers and under an oath given to the dead mother of the child, Cosette, who had been left the Thenardiers’ cruel treatment, takes her away. Programs containing a summary of the play were given each club member before the performance.
