Kemp's Annual n 17 1 331 p.m. PRE-CHRISTMAS 9 a.m. - 9 SALE ENDS TODAY EVERYTHING GOES ... WE ARE GIVING THE BEST NOW . . . AND NOT THE WORST AFTER CHRISTMAS! Gome And Get Em! 207 E. Franklin St. IV- (Author of "Barefoot Boy With Cheek," etc.) THE GIFT HORSE The college life is a busy one, especially at this time of year. What with going to classes and studying for exams and pursuing a full social schedule and construct ing rope ladders to foil dormito curfev3, the average undergrad is so pressed for time that he cannot do justice to his Christmas shopping. Therefore, to aid you in you? Christmas shopping, I have gone into the market place and selected for you a list of gifts, notable for their originality. Perhaps the most original feift of all this year is a carton of Thilip Morris Cigarettes. "Original?" you ex claim, your bushy young eyebrows rising. "Why, we have been giving cartons of Philip Morris for years!" True, I reply, but each time you give Philip Morris, it i3 a new treat, a fresh delight, a pristine pleasure. Each carton, each pack, each cigarette, each puff, is just as good as the first one you ever tried. Another gift destined for certain popularity this year is a gift certificate from the American Dental As sociation. This certificate, good at any dentist's office in America, is accompanied by a handsome gift card upon which i3 engraved this lovely poem: Merry Christ ma, little pal. Do you nctd .some root cunaj ' Prophylaxis? Porcelain taps i Bridgcwork to close up them gaps? Shiny braces that will straighten? Inlays? Fillings? Upper platen? Merry Christmas to your teeth, And the rosy gums beneath. mm - W Another gift that is always welcome is a book, espe cially to people who read. This Christmas the selection of books is particularly attractive. For lovers of an thologies, there is William Makepeace Sherpa's A Treas ury o the World's Great Treasuries. For those who fancy inspiring success stories, there is the stirring autobi ography of William Makepeace Pemmican entitled How 1 Got a Forty Pound Monkey Off My Back and Started the Duluth Zoo. For devotees of skin-diving, there is Married a Snorkel by Lydia Makepeace Watershed. For calorie counters and waistline watchers, there is Harry Makepeace Wildfoster's Eat and Grow Fat. My own favorite book this season is a pulse-pounding historical novel from that famous author of pulse-pounding historical novels, Daphne Makepeace Sigafoos. Thi3 one is called Egad and Zounds, and it tells4 the poignant romance of two young lovers, Egad and Zounds, who, alas, can never be married, for fiery Egad is but a gypsy lass, while tempestuous Zounds is a Kappa Sigma. They later become Ludwig of Bavaria. My final gift suggestion is one that a great many people have been fervently wishing for sines last year. Do you remember the introduction last Christmas of tiny personal portable radios that plugged into your ear? Well, this year, you will' be delighted to know, you can buy an ingenious pick to get them out . . E Max Shulman, 19o6 Old Max said it, but it bears repealing: A carton of Philip Morrin, made by the tponsori of this column, i a Christma gift that' bound to please everyone I The article said: the hoys "were walking through the woods v in back of the hospital when they came across the super-high way now in process of being built- in the excavation of the area. "are two bulldozers, the 'article' said. The article continued: "One of the boys used to drive a 'cat in civilian life so thought he would drive this one around to get the feel 'of things. "He started it up, but chicken ed out. ' The other boy "was anx ious to learn how to start it, so he picked a few pointers from his buddy, - "As Bob was looking over other pieces of equipment he ' heard ; a chug-chug-chug and looked up to see his 150 pound roommate com ming through the woods on top of a 150 ton bulldozer. "The two boys were last seen running off through the woods 'just laughin' up a storm.

STEVBKS- SHEPHERD or CWlio's Tryirig to Confucius?) Many moons ago . . . around 600 B. C. . . there was a barkeep riamed Draw Wuh in a little bistro off times Square in ShanghaL Now this character's cashbox was loaded with loot, as Wun served up the greatest brew that side of the Yangtze. "Murder," said Vun, one p. m. near 9 as the cats were clamoring for more beer, "I'm getting all shook lip trying to keep gung-ho on the tap, take the cash, and figure out the change. I don't dig that math." The beer Wun waa crying in belonged to a calculus prof from the local U. 1 1 . si x W UJ "Gad, Dad," sympathized the math man, "keep cook I'll think of something. You can count on it." So the prof rickshawed home and took a bath. Soon he was heard to shout, "Eureka!" (in Chinese, of course): He had solved the problem by inventing the abacus. " Next day he brought in a counting gizmo made of bam boo and cranberries. With this mechanical brain, Wun was able to introduce the time-payment plan, because one day a patron and Wun did this bit across tha mahogany: 1 have a yen for two cold ones to go," said the customer; "Sorry, friend, we don't accept Japanese currency, Wun lungedU- v "I'm flaCcat," came the reply, "got a suggestion?" Whereupon Wun played a few fast notes on his abacus; figured the terms of a loan for two beers and said, "Borrow one and carry two". . . two terms still used in modern mathematics. So you can see that's how Wun got a charge out of his abacus.
