SEVEN WONDERS OF THE WORLD
Busing selection upon the modern uge of science rather than
art and beauty the seven modem wonders of the world are: Wire-

wonders of the world deal with art and beautyWestern News-

When you kiss what is the meaning of it? A student at Tex-
as A. & I. wrote a little poem for The South Texan and called it:
OSCULATORY DITTY
A kiss can be capricious
A kiss can be kind
A kiss can be irreverent
Depending on the state of mind.
A kiss can be blissful
A kiss can be serene
A kiss can be savage
Or that's what it seems.
A kiss can be frivolous
A kiss can tantalize
A kiss can be stolen
Before you realize.
A kiss has wondrous powers
A kiss can be your friend
A kiss may be Heaven
Or a kiss may mean the end !

old age. The Prairie.

The Los Angeles Junior Collegian has exposed in their columns
ten modern commandments for coeds as suggested by men at the
University of. Georgia:
1. Thou shalt not gold-dig.
2. Thou shalt not giggle incessantly.
3. Thou shalt be natural at all times.
4. Thou shalt not keep thy dates waiting.
5. Thou shalt avoid trite insincere expressions.
C. Thou shalt be agreeable.
7. Thou shalt dress neatly.
8. Thou shalt not talk about other men to thy date.
9. Thou shalt show a spark of intelligence on some occasions.
10. Thou shalt be a good sport.
The following little ditty from the Cheney Normal gives us a
bit of consolation even in death:
Now I lay me down to rest
Before I take tomorrow's test.
If I should die before I wake
Thank gosh I'll have no test to take.
And then there was the Dumb Dora who thought Western
Union meant cowboy's underwear. The Chaser.
The Huntsville Echo gives us a rather amusing account of an
incident which grew out of the fact that one of Utah's cities Og-
den has some silly ordinances. However Ogden is not the only
city in the United States which has obnoxious ordinances. Here's
the account just as in The Echo:
Ogden's Sunday closing ordinance and the state liquor law are
splitting families at mealtime according to James Kallas propri-
etor of a cafe here.
"An Idaho visitor entered the cafe Sunday and asked for a pint
bottle of milk for his little girl" said Kallas.
"I can't sell a bottle of milk due to Sunday closing ordinances
here but if you bring the little girl in she can drink a glass of milk
here" I told him.
"When he brought the girl inside the cafe he ordered a bottle
of beer for himself.
"I can sell you a bottle of beer but due to the state liquor law
you'll have to go outside to drink it" I told him.
The father went to his car to drink the beer and the little girl
stayed inside to drink her milk.
Here's a new decalogue for college students in general as found
in the T. C. U. Skiff:
1. Thou shalt know thyself.
2. Thou shalt live clean.
3. Thou shalt be loyal and square.
4. Thou shalt think straight.
5. Thou shalt And thy work and do it.
6. Thou shalt read great books.
7. Thou shalt put things in a right perspective.
8. Thou shalt make friends.
y 9. Thou shalt be gracious courteous and charitable toward
JtlVD. Thou shalt not neglect the services of religion.

Life called
GULLIBLE
You can tell me what you will
Water really runs uphill-
Spring is when all fishes mate
Hohawk Rubber's up to eight
Fireside chats are nice in June
Rudy Vallee hates to croon.
If I married you you'd be
Faithful to eternity.
Alas in love I'm dumb and blind
I listen with my heart not mind.
Puns of the times as found in the LASS-O:
Liquor store slogan: "The customer is always tight."
"Dust as I thought it was" he said brushing the powder off
his lapel.
Latest undertaker's theme song: "I'm Putting All My Yeggs
in One Casket."
"Someone swiped my purse." Uh huh! The first robin of
spring.
Customer: "How can I tell whether a have dandruff or not?"
Barber: "Place suspicious particles on piece of paper. If they
walk away you do not have dandruff." The Chaser.

Well Seniors it won't be long now.
Say we ought to have another one of
those Senior Day outings. I never had
such a good time in my life and did
you know that we will probably never
be able to get together like that again
after commencement. The only thing
that marred our day was the fact that
Tink had to break out with the meas
les and go home right after lunch. We
missed ol Tink nnd the rest that went
home with him for the remainder of
the day and they missed a lot too be-
cause the bib action didn't take place
until after lunch.
Well something did happen too.
Mary Elizabeth and Genevieve begged
Dick Austin to show them how to play
bridge but instead he decided to show
Trudle Mae the finer tricks of the
game. The four of them enjoyed it
to the fullest extent.
fell down on us. Only a few went.
The girls however lived up to their
contract. You can Imagine how much
surplus we had.
We never would have had ao much
fun if it hadn't been for Fred. Fred
is undoubtedly the greatest teaser
that ever lived. If he has ever let
anybody have a minute's peace I'd
like to know when it was. He was a
pretty good boy when a freshman but
he's getting meaner all the time now.
I'm inclined to believe that his life Is
made up of one long tease.
So long everybody happy school-teaching!
Then later this same Dick figured
In a much more deeper drama- -almost
a tragedy. After lunch Genevieve Mc.
Inroe and Thelma McCulley almost
came to the hair pulling stage. They
were fighting over our dear Richard.
Who should have him? that was the
question. Dick settled the whole thing
by getting disgusted and going home.
Couldn't blame him I suppose. For
after all who wants to be coddled at
a picnic.
This Collegiate World
(By Associated Collegiate Press)
March winds caused a record run
on the Ohio State infirmary 2927
students appearing for treatment.
There are 175000 attorneys In the
United States 37600 incubating in the
law schools. Too many say authorities.
The American Geological Society
dug into the basement of Harvard Hall
the other day and came up with an
important find: 100-year-old beer bottles!
Another fight that almost took
place (in fact it did take place). Say
didn't we do anything but fight on
that picnic ? I guess not. Well any-
way It seems that somebody started
throwing water. I believe It was
Thelma and Rmmarie and Aleene.
Maybe It wasn't them but neverthe-
less the water began to fly and pret-
ty soon everybody was wet but Hog
Davis. Sitting above and slightly away
from the rest he was having a lot of
fun at our expense. But not for long.
Mary decided that he should have a
double handful In his face so he got
it. And then Hog decided that he
should at least strangle Mary If not
drown her. So he did strangle her.
By this time things were beginning to
get so hot or wet that if Charlie
and I hadn't picked the psychological
moment to go In swimming there's no
telling what might have happened.
I never did find out whether or not
Mr. Blair and Bill Hazel caught any
fish. Bill was explaining to the rest of
us how those big catfish came up and
ate out of bis hand. But did he catch
any? That's what we want to know.
You might know that Truett wore
his faithful straw hat a picnicking.
He kept It by his warm side too until
Hog swiped It from his head and ran
off to town. Truett worried all the
way In and when we got here he
promptly went after his bat. Boy
how he loves that top piece i

For Instance the Saturday walks
will be through the Taughannock and

Bven though the gorges are three
