This week this" Column ia to he done
by a guest writer, but we take one
chance to deny everything first—and
that means everything, EMILY, We
also wish to resent the statements of
"that magazine" concerning dainty,
little RED UB HILL. Miss HILL is
well known as a small person with a
correspondingly small appetite.
MARTHA FARMER announces that
FATTY OPH will be away until next
Friday and says, quote, Do I get any
players. Unquote. The FARMER
dynasty will throw a whingdllly at
the FARMER domicile after the dance
tomorrow night. GUSSIE (Mrs.
FARMER) is reported on a fox hunt,
iis is the way of Farmers.
Incidentally the Pals' style show and
dance should be on the up and up-
next Tuesday night at the Junior
Lea",ue—the place with the balcony,
the garden, and the Rice crowd for one
i>i,t!ht only.
VAR1NA STONE and VIOLET STE-
PHENS are now on the blacklist of
the Dance Committee and the editor
of The Thresher. These ignorant (?)
misses refused to let Messieurs FEN-
NELLE. RACK, RODGE, and SISK
into the Tuesday afternoon dance free.
When the gentlemen explained who
they were, Miss Stone is reported to
have come b4ck, "Well isn't: that nice,
You can come to this dance for only
twenty cents, then," Of course, they
got in liec - finally.
