CAFT. T. DINSMORE UPTON,
LECTURER, AT NEXT LY-
CEUM, MARCH FIRST
(Continued from page One)
of correction.
He possesses a radiant, dominent per-
sonality, and is eloquent in the ex-
treme; yet the effectiveness of his elo-
quence comes largely through his deep-
seated earnestness. His audiences love
him for his enthusiasm, his fine char-
acter, his ideals, his unshaken con-
victions, and for his general service in
the biggest of all problems—that of
the boy and girl.
We who are going to be the teach-
ers of the citizens of tomorrow can-
not afford to miss this wonderful lec-
ture, for we are assured of hearing
something that will be valuable to us
in our work with the boys and girls
of the state, and we can rely upon this
fact, that Capt. Upton is an authority
of the subject, “The Four Square
Builder.”
THE SENIORS’ ANSWER-
(Continued from page One)
whom the squad will likely be
chosen: Roger Hons Porter, star
forward of West End Ward
School, 1903; Franklin Herndon
of the same famous quintet;
Heinrich Pochman, star (editor)
of the College; Peewee Day, star
tennis shark of the Jelly Beans
of 1922; Battling Daniel Smith,
prominent in athletic and other
circles in Coronal Institute 1916
a^d ’17; Goggles Culpepper, star
o : the class of Educational His-
tory, Ed. Bldg., S. W. T. N. C.;
Rosy Cheek Kuykendall, no past
record but promising; Ennis
Hill, assistant to Tommy New-
tion and Mr. Key in the chem.
slop room; Jesse and Claudecker
Kellam of Blanco, widely known
for their jawing abilities. With
a line-up like this against Dean
Mayes, Mr. Brown, Lee Gonzales,
Mr, Harry, Mr. Ferguson, Mr.
Goodman, and Joe Martin Shel-
ton, it looks as if the Studes are
scheduled for that long sought
revenge.
As it is customary to charge
a minimum fee merely for some
charitable purposes, 10 cents
will be charged to be donated to
the Athletic Fund. Don’t for-
get, we, the Seniors, answer the
Faculty’s challenge and ask that
the game be played in the big
G y m Thursday evening, of
March first, at 7:30.

P. S.—We have a regular hot-bed of
Normal fokls in this section. More
than half of our thirty teachers are
from there.
We would like to offer this as a
suggestion to many of you students
that throw your Star away after you
are through reading it. Send your
copy to your home town high school
and ask the principal or some teacher
there that he place it on the reading
table in the library. Those high school
students are glad to get college news,
regardless of where it is from. We be-
lieve tlhat the matter of high school
graduates deciding to what school they
shall goNis largely a matter of which
school gets to them first. You will
place the name of the Southwest Texas
Normal College before the eyes of your
friends. You will draw students for
your school, all of which will go. to
make your college a better college.

that the Normal College has on its
exchange list are the following:
The Prairie, West Texas Normal
College.
The Kangaroo, Austin College.
The Skiff, Texas Christian University

College.

Sonnet.
(On Reading the Daily Newspapers)
The world is tired of war, it asks for
peace,
Sweet peace to come and heal its bitter
wounds,
But there is none to grant from war
release;
We sow the seed of hate in fertile
grounds.
In hearts that wish for love we never
cease
To plant the germs of hatred without
bounds—•
The subtle poison that will bring
disease
And sweep into the grave a thousand
towns.
We cannot have enduring peace utntil
We cease exacting pay from those
unborn.
Pity the brute who would not fight
to kill *
When those he loves, his wife, his
babes, are torn
From him by bonds, to wane, to die,
to fill
A . pauper’s grave to satisfy a foe.
—Silas A. Koonce.

More Truth Than Poetry.
If you flatter a man it frightens him
to death;
If you permit him to make love to you,
he gets tired in the end;
If you! do not, he gets offended in the
beginning;
If you believe all he tells you, he thinks
you are a fool
And if you don’t, he thinks you are
quite cynic.
If you agree with him in everything you
soon cease to interest him,
But if you argue with him in everything
he thinks you are catty.
If you wear gay colors and rogue and
startling hats he hesitates to take
you out.
If you wear a little brown togue and a
plain tailor made he takes you out
but gazes all evening at some other
woman in gay colors, rogue and
startling hat.
If you are jealous, he cannot endure
you;
If you are not he cannot understand
you;
If you join in his gayeties and ap-
prove his habits, he swears that you
are leading him to the Devil,
And if you are affectionate, he soon
wearies of your kisses,
And if you are a sweet, old-fashioned,
clinging vine, he doubts that you
have brains;
If you are modern and independent, he
doubts that you have a heart.
And if you are cute and babyjsh, he
longs for a mental mate,
If you are brilliant and intelligent he
longs for a playmate,
If you are simple and domestic be-
longs for a soul mate;
If you are temperamental and poetic
he longs for a helpmate,
And all the time though he is falling in
love with you for what you! are,
He is spending his days trying to re-
model you and make you
What you are not, never were and
never can be.
Attorney: “And where did you see

Second Bug: “Oh, it was quite ec-
static-al!”—Scalper.
