Show COLLEGIATE LIFE <br><br> three schools each, leaving out championship idea altogether. The purpose of this is that the high school teams may avoid the overwork sure to come with more than two debates a year. <br> Collegiate has been a member of the inter-scholastic league for the last two years, and although it won neither year, its teams have done very creditable work. We need a team this year, and we will have one. Six have already entered for the try-out debates, but there ought to be more who would be willing to try for a place in this sport which offers so much chance for the development and display of brains, logic, quickness, and self-reliance-a sport in which honesty and fair play are always necessary for victory. <br> Why could we not have class debates, and select the school team from the class teams? Rhetoricals are over for this year, we do not have to worry any more about our enforced public appearance, and these would offer a chance for something really worth while to do. Then might the Freshie have chance to wreak vengeance on the Senior for all the malicious jokes and doggerels which have appeared in this paper by bringing home their Seniors' scalp. Think it over, it's worth some thought. <br><br> PATRONIZE OUR ADVERTISERS. <br> We have urged the students to boost for Collegiate and for College Life" in numberless ways. Let us suggest one more way which is the best way for boosting our paper, at least. A large number of the students are already boosting in this manner. <br> Patronize our advertisers; this is the "secret of success" for "College Life." Our advertisers are some of the best firms in town. Boys, if you need a shave go to the barber who advertises even if it is a block farther; you can congratulate yourself for doing a loyal act for your school, and girls make your fellows take you to the drug-store for ice cream that advertises with us. <br> L. E. J. ‘12. <br><br> DO YOU? <br> Do you want to see a good baseball team? <br> Do you want to see that team win a few games? <br> Do you want to see Davis wear a smile? <br> Do you want to see the rest of the team do the same? <br> Do you want to be smiled at? <br> Do you want to see Allen smile and grin? <br> Zetrqw4368nhtyergthberwo u yuip -Pronounce that-then smile. <br> No time is present other than the present-no time is better than the present. Show the white of your eyes and while you are at it show the school you understand or can play baseball. <br> Get busy-have you paid your dues? <br> Talk the sign language to the treasurer-he's waiting for that "half"-if you haven't paid it already. Do it now! <br><br> "JUST SO." <br> To put out a respectable paper once a month requires: A few jokes, a few stories, a few opinions, and a little (?) money. If you are going to give us anything-don't give us: the headache-the "go-by," the head of the hammer-the "ha, ha"-nor brain fatigue. <br> Prevents all this-give us a preventative. We guarantee the following as a good remedy: An ounce of joke, one pound of story, two dozen opinions and buy "Life from us. So far we have suffered from brain-fatigue-we have had the pleasure of being too original-we have been doing altogether too much thinking. Please give us a ["]sleeper" in the form of the above. We have a box in the editorial room. <br><br> |
