Johnson s Aulbert CLOTHING COAAPANY 120 N. Elm Street Get With It, Buddy! Four Weeks To Exams Are you a Paul-Put-It-Off? Do you study only two of the six weeks? If so, here is a list of eight ways to improve your study habits. Go down the list, checking the suggestions mentally until you find the loophole in your study habits. To tell if this is being done mentally, it’s when you smell the wood burning. Do you; 1. Average at least 45 minutes study on each lesson each day. Answer: Man, do you realize that is almost four hours! You must not have. Between 4 p. m. and 10 p. m. there are only six hours, and of course it takes over two hours just to lead a normal life. In the afternoons you must get your ex ercise (jitterbugging) and nourish ment (food). Of course there must be time for. suppe?*, and. then, you must read .the paper to keep abreast of the currenf,. eventp—-, in the life ‘ of Lil’ Abner. There are always club meetings, concerts, plays, and other fhpctions to at tend. Then of course you do study, it’s not your fault that yoii are not perfect yet; it fakes time. 2. Go to the library, for ejrtra information? Center of the activity of the “m onkey-jungle” is Kathleen Satter field supporting the flying swan, S helba Creed. Some other stunts being accomplished by the girls a re shoulder stands, head stands, }»nd stands, and the group pyram id. What next? Maybe Gibe’s girls will appear on the Sealtest Big Top next Saturday! Answer: You bet! You’d be sur prised at the information you can pick . .up in . that joint! I^y the other .day Jonie said that—Oh dam that censor. You will have to find out later. , 3. Set yourself a time limit to prepare each part of the home-, work? Answer: This you are very con scientious about. You set a limit and stick to it. If the homework isn’t finished in 20 minutes, just quit. 4. Turn off TV and the radio and concentrate when you study? Answer: To listen to some people talk, you’d think they didn’t know that the radio and television were educational. You watch “Science Fiction” for biology; ‘The Old Rebel” for American history; and “Cur’s Caravan” for music. Con centrate? Thought that was a kind of orange juice. *Oh, well, that’s what you get for thinking. HIRLIE WIMMir By Mary Jane Seawell Doorman at fraternity meeting: Who’s here? Voice: It is I.
