made by its members, and not by its
officers alone. We have the best presi-
dent in school, but he can't make your
class the best unless you stand by him.
It takes the loyalty and co-operation
of each member to accomplish any-
thing, which proves the old saying,-
"United we stand, divided we fall."
We are too slow; we have been
three months organizing, when we
ought to have done it in a few meet-
ings. We must take our class seri-
ously, and consider that we are there
for business, and not sociability alto-
gether. We have the largest class in
school. If you are a true Junior, at-,
tend the meetings and pay attention,
and we will have the best also.
How about it? Are you interested?
Will you be there next time ?—A
Junior.

On November the tenth Ruth Hunt-
er gave an informal luncheon in the
Fcods department. She served Lula
Mae Martin, Darwi^i Holton, RiUa
Stigler, ■ Mr. S. F. Davis, Mr. Gear-
reald, and Luther Starr. Luther made
an excellent host and Ruth a charm-
ing hostess. The menu below was
served:
Peanut buttered ham
1 Mashed sweet potatoes
Hot biscuits Butter
Hot cocoa
Apple snow
Her color scheme was red and gold.
It was well carried out by a center-
piece of red and yellow chrysanthe-
mums. Chrysanthemums were also
used as favors.
The assistant editor, Jack Overton,
wants to know how to spell nonentity
(look it up yourself), probably trying
to refer to the editor.
• Luther Mae Bellomy has withdrawn
from school because of trouble with
her head. We regret this loss, but she
states that she will enter again at
mid-term.
A BLIGHTED LIFE
A Ope Act Play
Time: 1946.
Place: Streets of New York.
Characters: First Bystander.
Second Bystander.
"Shorty" Nance,
I
First Bystander: Who is the ab-
ject fellow over there ?8
Second Bystander: The one with
dirty clothes and overgrown beard?
F. B.: Yes.
S. B.: Oh, he is the.fellow who
was once wealthy and lost all his
money—and his mind too. It is a
very sad case.
F. B.: Oh yes, I remember now,
his name's Nance—he was once the
most promising young business man
in New York, if I remember correctly.
S. B.: Yes, and it seems that in
accordance with the theory of environ-
ment, his early life has ruined his
career.
F. B.: You don't say!. That's quite
interesting. Do you by any chance
know the first part of the story?
S. B. : Why yes, I think I've heard
it several times. It was once printed
in a psychologist's magazine, too. It
seems that when he was a young fel-
low he attended some school in Texas.
He stayed in the college hospital along
with a crazy old, maid school teacher
and a brutal speciman of a nurse. It
so blighted his entire life that now he
has fallen to thjs terrible state of
degradation that we now see. It cer-
tainly is a shame that those two wo-
men had such a drastic influence over
him, isn't it?
F. B.: It certainly is!
Oh look, he's having a fit!
Deamons, that's too horrible
to witness. Let us move
S. B.:

along.
' F. B.:
Yes, it's well that we do.
(As they move away.)
Both: Oh, a very sad case.

Pinkey Hudson; "What mem-
orable day was Friday December 3
at Tarleton?"
Spot; "Dunno."
Pinkey: "They served biscuits
at the Dump."
We wonder why Pauline McMordie
and Anne Thompson spend every week
end in Desdemona.
