Show COLLEGIATE LIFE <br><br> A HINT. <br> (Innocent voters have been receiving advice, written on the bulletin board. Our poet has obligingly put some of these sage suggestions into rhyme.) <br><br> Is he industrious? <br> Put him on the Council. <br> Does he smoke a pipe? <br> Put him on the Council. <br> Are his finger-nails salubrious? <br> Put him on the Council. <br> Is she of the Gibson type? <br> Put her on the Council. <br><br> Does he read Collegiate Life? <br> Put him on the Council. <br> Does he belong to the Rooster Club? <br> Put him on the Council. <br> Is he always in a strife? <br> Put him on the Council. <br> Is he a good-natured dub? <br> Put him on the Council. <br><br> Will he do the students' will? <br> Put him on the Council. <br><br> Then we'll have some school-"velly swell"- <br> For he'll be on the Council. <br><br> "About the only person who can make both ends meet, no matter how hard the times are, is the Lady Contortionist.-Ex. <br><br> "I have been reading about sweat shops." <br> "Don't say ‘sweat shops'." <br> "What shall I say?" <br> "Say perspiration offices."-Ex. <br><br> A fool, a barber and a bald headed man were traveling together. Losing their way they were forced to sleep in the open air; and to avert danger, it was decided tho that they should watch by turns. The first lot fell to the barber, who, for amusement, shaved the fool's head while he was sleeping. He awoke then and after scratching his head said: "Here's a pretty mistake; you have awakened the bald headed man instead of me." <br><br> Senior-What is the most nervous thing, next to a girl? <br> Bashful Freshie-Me-next to a girl. <br><br> [An illustration of a rooster crowing is inserted here, with the following words next to it: THE PRESIDENT OF THE ROOSTERS' CLUB THE TUFFEST IN THE "CROWD"] <br> ROOSTER CLUB ORGANIZED. <br> A Rooster club was organized the last of November for the purpose of helping the school paper, and providing its members with good healthy amusement. A Constitutional committee was appointed: Robt. Hutchins, chairman; the others of the committee being James Ashton and Jack Allen. <br> The first meeting of importance was held December 12, 1910, to which all the boys of the school were invited. The amusement of this first great day were the following boxing matches: <br> 1. Swift match of two rounds-Allen vs. Johnson. <br> 2. Exciting match, two rounds-Ashton vs. Goble. <br> 3. Fast boxing-Harry Hutchins vs. Robt. Hutchins. <br> The meeting adjourned when Robert received a bad nose bleed through stumbling and hitting Harry's open hand. <br> We are glad to know both have recovered and are back in school. <br><br> In Physics. <br> Mr. Johns-"Archimedes, you say, discovered specific gravity on getting into his bath; why had the principle never before occurred to him?" <br> Johnson-"Probably this was the first time he ever took a bath." <br><br> The question is: Not who has the most hair; but who is the most artistic in hiding from view the greatest number of rats. The winds of the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth were certainly "rough on rats." <br><br> |
