Slimes Letter To Pa
i
Stockyard Shavings
A merry after-Thanksgiving greet-
ing to you my dears and how are
all the little hangovers and ulcerated
stomachs? If you just must paint
the home town red will you learn to
quit buying it in fruit jars? A ring
on the nose is alright when made
by spectacles but not by glasses.
And as usual due to an old Howard
Payne custom the members of the
athletic squad are relaxing and revel-
ing and otherwise celebrating the
close of the season. Be careful when
striking a match around these boys
the flame might cause an explosion.

elate. The holidays are due to be fill-
ed with pleasure and lots of fun for
every one in Howard Payne and It is
hoped that none will not be able to
get all that is possible out of the short
vacation.
Soon we will be able to get the girls
out of the dorm and out of town to go
to the basketball games during the
week. That is if they haven't chang-
ed the dorm tegulatlons since last
year. However they have changed
so many things around the dump
without asking us that we wouldn't
be surprised what might happen next.
The Yellow Jacket's All-Conference
team will appear next week. Not that
we know how to pick them but we
just have our own ideas concerning
the matter and kind of like to express
them. The entire Jacket staff will
have a vote on each position and we
will let you know the rsults as soon
as possible.
There is to be a gathering for the
Will Rogers Memorial Fund benefit
here in the auditorium Sunday after-
noon. All of the students are urged
to be at the meeting. The Howard
Payne band will render a few num-
bers on the program.
Read the student constitution for
this is the last time that it will ap-
pear in the Jacket before it is voted
upon. It will be voted on for appro-
val by the student body Friday and is
of the utmost importance.
Thanksgiving has come and gone
and I'm giving thanks to the teach-
ers foi not lettln me take another
subject to flunk. .At the pdesent
time Im holding my head five fancy
F's and one dirty shirt; which must
last me until the Yuletide.
Im sorry you and Maw had to eat
tm key with only the hird hand to
fuss out but I was elected by the
student body to escort one J. R. San
ders to the wilds of Coryell County
and see that his scraggy mane was
left in a barber shop. I came back
with the good news and now the tea-
diets have declared a holiday in com-
memoration of the occasion. The
opetation took place In the shop of
Oscar Gloff the proporitor wclldlng
the instruments and me and Mat
Quickslall held a hand apiece. Mr
Quickslall by the way is a next door
neighbor to James Read and a fam-
ily man of no small means. During
the operation the Immediate family
of the now skull headed James sat
at home in mourning; partly because
of the unveiling of their son and be-
cause of the fact that they had just
seen me go to work on a hundred
pound Turkey and they bemoaned the
fact that they were to furnish me
with several other meals; which of
course you know Is a matter of deep
consideration. They now realize
where the expression TURKEY GOB-
BLERS comes from. All in all I be-
haved as weel as any college student
knows how too and enjoyed the visit
very much.
Gatesville Pa is just this side of
Pancake and the State Reformat
tory a finishing school is located
there. I was there 36 hours and no-
body recognized me. Everyone of the
inmates spoke to James R. though.
One of the bloodhounds came up and
sniffed at me but evidently he wasnt
hungry. I learned that every one of
the boys at the Reform school were
' planning on entering Howard Payne
as soon as they graduated there.
Every time I sit down to write
you Pa I am overcome with a de
sire to come back to the farm and
to the life that suits me best. Every
one down here is always in a hurry
to get to class see what good grades
they can make and how many girls
they can get to fall in love with. Now
at home we aint got no class see
how many bales of cotton we can
make In one year and the women just
naturely let us alone because they
they caint leave their washing and
ironin long enough to give us any
time.
Football season is over and now the
football boys will have to start study.
ing for their grades. All of those
interested in Basketball will now
start coming out but on account of a
shortage in under ware there will
be only fifteen men on the squad.
am planning on coming out now that
I have a new suit of long handles to
wear. They were donated by one of
the Dorm girls. I wonder how she
knew I was freezing I alnt never
had a date with her.
Hold everything down Pa and get
all of the neighbors on the line for

A man has arisen from the ranks
of the people who stands out. A sec-
ond Lothario Don Juan or what
have you? The man of the hour
the day the week and the month.
We point with pride at Senor
Elton Alphus Jeremiah Bologna
Motorcycle Lantern Slide Bay Win-
dow Blackstock. This young man
standing almost six feet In high heeled
boots and weighing in at approxi
mately 150 pounds (net) recently
accomplished the near Impossible
three dates in one night! With brazen
effrontery he handed the same line
to three girls in less than six hours.
First a dizzy little blonde from
Texas Tech; second a cute little
high school girl; and third well we'd
better not mention her. Is that a
Romeo for you? But that isn't all.
Every other day comes a letter from
the torch singer in the orchestra that
recently played Brownwood and the
rest of his fan mail is beyond con
ception. To a high school skirt the
height of fame Is to be dated by him
and girls in every major town in Tex
as whisper his name in longing and
reverence. Gentlemen I ask you
shall this continue unnoticed?
Tops in dormitory porch sitters
this week are Lois Mercer and Mister
(accent on Mr.) Burleson. From a
side-angle view this looks like real
love and what may come of it I
don't know. This young man close-
ly resembling a cross between George
Raft and a telephone pole has been
whispering sweep nothings In her car
for quite a while now. Well the old
saying still holds true "To hold the
Lasso editor Is to be in the beauty
section."
"Snake-ln-the-grass" Greenlee has
been ouC-snakcd-in-the-grass. His
present steady ( ? ) Lizzie Shepherd
stepped out quite frequently during
the holidays with Eddie Gains and
told young Greenlee to "up-somethlng
or other." Mmm.
A dtive will start next week to
"Buy Doc Davis A Bicycle For
Christmas." Stand ready to do your
share.
20000 Texas Youth
Placed In School
Austin Texas Dec. 4 Twenty
thousand Texas boys and girls have
been placed in schools or given an
opportunity to go to work in two
months by the National Youth Ad-
ministration Lyndon B. Johnson
state director said Tuesday night in
a radio address at Austin.
Of this number 5700 have been
given part-time jobs in all the eligi-
ble colleges and universities of Texas.
Approximately 9000 have been given
jobs to help defray incidental expen-
ses in high school. Freshman college
centers are being opened to care for
750 high school graduates who did not
enter college this fall. Two thousand
young men and women from 16 to 25
have been called for work on WPA
projects in addition to the adult
workers requisitioned and NYA pro-
jects designed exclusively for youth
are to be started soon.
"The NYA is investing this money
in actual productive work" Johnson
said. "It Is work which is good for
the young people who are doing it
and is of real permanent value to
your city your town your county the
whole commonwealth of Texas.
"No one gets anything for nothing
under any of the NYA programs. The
NYA has no dole to give to young
people. Any assistance they receive
springs from their own desires to
better themselves by their own init
iative and determination. Whether
a young man or woman goes to school
or gets a job he or she must give in
return for the pay received a service
to earn it."
Today's Thought
Today a fellow criticized another
very severly saying many unneces-
sary harsh things about him. It was
all uncalled for and makes one won-
der if he would not say the same
thing about some else a dog that
will carry one bone will carry another.
There is some good to every one so
talk about that phase and soon that
person's value will rise In your esti-
mation. If he needs admonition be
man enough to tell him to his face.
This should be our motto May my
criticism of my fellowman always be
an infinite silence.
MINISTERIAL COUNCIL
The Council was divided into five
trrnnne uHth rantaln over each
group. A census was taken to find
out how many ministerial students
were taking the Baptist Standaru. n
la thn dpsire of the Council to organ

members may read the btanaara

sure to see the club treasurer and do
