Queens Quill To Come
Out After Holidays
Made up of contributions from ,the student body, the Queens Quill,
annual literary publication, goes to press this week. During the first
week after the spring holidays, this year’s gold and white edition will
appear for sale at twenty-five cents a copy. Students are asked to watch
the bulletin board for announcements of exact time and place of sale.
Editor Elizabeth Isaacs and business manager Gail Griffith base their
predictions of a complete sell-out on the large number of advance-sale
orders due to the interest of students in their own and other’s contributions
and in the several new features adopted. Some of the contributors to this
year’s Quill will be: Pete Munroe, Lucy Hassell, Joyce Ruth, Catherine
Green, Sarah Thompson, Betty Jane Furay, Julia Edwards, and Elizabeth
Isaacs. Most of the upper classmen represented have worked on previous
Quills. Lucy Hassell, a transfer from Baylor, has contributed to The Bay-
lorian, the mazagine published by that college. The freshmen contributing
were, in most cases, connected with their high school publications.

The Editor’s Lament
Getting out a pa)jer is no picinic.
If we print Jokes, people say we
are silly;
If we don’t, they say we are too
serious.
If we clip from other magizines
We are too lazy to write ourselves;
If we don’t we are too fond of our
own stuff.
If we don’t print contributions, we
don’t appreciate genius;
If we do print them, the paper is
filled with junk.
If we make a change in another
persons writeup; we are critical;
If we don’t we are asleep.
Now, like as not, some one will say
we surped this from some other
paper.
We DID.
