Blue Blazes! Here Tis Once More Fellers!
'38 Brings That Hangover Elections Debts
And Various Subjects For Conversation
1f3t SO WHAT? ROSAELY JUST
ANOTHER ELECTION YEAR
UT IT'S HERE JUST THE SAME
With Its many hangovers broken
resolutions well wishing numberless
personal agreements to live better
lives gay parties news resumes con
gressional opening Presidential mes-
sages and numerous other formalities
the new year has been properly usher-
ed into being and Inaugurated Into
the great American way of life.
'Whether for better or for worse rc-
mains to be seen. It's here and there's
positively nothing that can be done
about it now.
First came the usual banter "How
many females took you this Christ
mas?" "Did you get any returns"
What colors are your new ties and
sox?" "Did you live through all the
celebrations?" "How do you feel any-
way?" And then comes the usual
aftermath of the holiday sprees
"Say pal can you spare a little of
that stuff?" "Gee kid but I'm flat.
Think you could spare a dime? It
sure will come In handy until I get
my check from home." Not to men-
tion "Sorry Sweet but I just can't
make It tonight. Have to study and
besides that I have a club meeting.
I'll try to pet around and see you later
in the week." Kmbarassing? Rather!
And That's Not All
Financial embarassment. Useless
or too colorful gifts. Feeling like a
punk. All that doesn't cover the first
few days of the new year. There's
still another nightmare for the poor
guys who are chumps enough to have
women associating with them. There's
the report of the past ten days or
so. It's too lengthy to be interesting;
too interesting to be truthful; and too
truthful to believe. But that is one of
the things that victims of the S. A.
and new year's hangovers have to
undergo. And of course there are
thanks for the beautiful gift usually
taken from Emily Post or some such
source. Dull but It must be accepted
along with the rest of the Jabbering.
The topic for Janle and Jennie con-
cerns the dates while at home and
the many handsome members of the
opposite sex whom they attracted. It
might fall off Into a comparison of
Christmas gifts. That generally ends
In a stiff argument and ruffled feel-
ingsnot to mention a little profes
sional Jealousy.
And with the boys . . .! What a
mess. "Had to work all the time.
Didn't gefHo have any fun. Had one
night off and that night I was so
tired I went straight to bed." Per-
haps a little checking up among
friends to see if there's enough in the
bunch for a package of cigarettes or
a couple of cokes. And it stops with
that unless there's a "session" to
invent excuses for not being seen by
the girls for the remainder of the
month.
Still It Doesn't Stop
Just when the finish Is reached and
things begin to run smoothly all reso-
lutions having been broken all girls
lost all hope abandoned the storm
really breaks. Everyone Is feeling fine.
rMr rpftilv Is a sliver lining to the
cloud. "But what's that coming up
on the horlson? Worst of all if not
" JL ihnn that. Finals! ! Now we
do have an excuse to overlook ro-
mance but now is the time that we
want an excuse for something else.
Illness? No! Death In the family?
No! Work? No! Suicide? That's about
as good as any." Well the worst is
bound to come sooner or later so
the boning begins. Grades go out.
The long expected check falls to ar-
rive. A letter from Dad "Places It.
"What's the matter with those
grades?" And so life goes on!
1939 . . . 1940 . . . Infinitely. The
new year's hangover. Joy to none.
Pain to all. A subject of conversation
whenever two people meet. The new
year's birth!
It's really a social error if you
choose the wrong fork especially If
it's on a five-mile tour.
Promotion Is not a matter of luck
to the lucky fellow; It Is a matter of
pluck to the plucky fellow.
'Panay' Films Showing
At Lyric Today; First
Time In This Section
The shocking truth clearing up the
dispute regarding the guilt In the
bombing of the U. S. gunboat Panay
by Japanese planes is now laid be-
fore every person in the United States
by Universal Pictures In the form of
Indelible motion picture scenes of the
actual attack! The amazing film
achievement of Norman W. Alley
who photographed the entire episode
from the deck of the Panay Is con-
tained in a special feature which
comes to the Lyric Theattc starting
next Friday. The picture the only
complete account of the Panay attack
tells a story that starts with the
first alarm in Nanking the burning
and bombing of that city and the
tumultous evacuation by panic-stricken
Americans. The frantic embarka-
tion aboard the Panay comes next.
Then the attack and following that
the struggle and privations of the
wounded survivors marching along
the Yangtze river in constant' peril
from Japanese Army patrols until
rescue comes in the form of the Brit-
ish gunboat "Bee".
Even as Americans rush to see this
unparalleled depiction of an event
that shook the world high govern-
mental officials in Washington are
looking at the same pictures so that
they too will see the truth ror tnenv
selves. The actual and almost com
pletely exclusive scenes of the Panay
attack comprise an episodic presen-
tation of a major event In political
history that has never been depicted
before. The film contains tne oniy
scenes showing the sinking of the
boat its side almost completely des-
troyed in the attack and reenacts
several other actual occurrences ex-
actly as they happened under the
hawk-eyed camera that was wielded
by the Intrepid Norman Alley.
RHYM1N'
AUTOMOBILES
When from a building's roof you
watch
The life that goes below
They slowly move then race now
push
A game of stop and go.
At night from on this same high roof
Like lightning bugs they seem;
So beautiful a scene below
As If it were a dream.
Why can't we stay upon the roof
Pretend that bugs they are
That do not cut down little lives
Nor health nor beauty mar.
Old age that can but slowly move
Youth that knows any pace
This monster stops each in his course
When met with face to face.
CF
Grades Are Important
To 1938 Resolutions
Of DBC Students
CLASS ATTENDANCE FAILURE
TO RESOLVE AND FINANCES
RECEIVE ATTENTION OF COL-
LEGIANS. Now that a new year has begun
there is much talk of New Year's reso-
lutions. This age old custom has got-
ten to be somewhat of a Joke In
that resolutions made at this time of
the year are seldom kept. Many per-
sons however do make resolutions
which they keep throughout the year
and which add to and make their lives
richer and fuller. It seems that It
would 'be a good Idea for people to
make them to prove to themselves
that they can keep resolutions if they
dctetmlnc to do so.
Did you make any? Many of the
students on the campus did and the
Inquiring reporter has this week been
finding out what some of them were.
Here are a few:
Dorothy Couch: "My best one was
that if I can't say something nice
about someone I'll not say anything
about him at all."
Margaret Cole: "I didn't make any;
because I can't keep them."
Bull Durham: "To make better territory."
Alvln Stanford: "I resolved to make
all classes and to get a better grade
In Education 7A."
Patta Jean Moore: "Mine Is for
the benefit of my professors to be
on time to classes."
Jessie Beryl Chlsholm: "To keep
my mouth shut and keep still and
to grow 2 more inches."
J. B. Fowler: "All of mine were
bad; so that when they were broken
It would be all right."
Monk Alford: "To make A's."
Paul Gregory: "I resolved to make
Mrs. Miller's English class a little
oftener."
Leroy Garrett: "1. To go to church
every Sunday; 2. Save more money;
3. Try to make the honor roll."
Imogcne Hill: "Not to look at the
keyboard on my typewriter. That will
make Mrs. Sutton happy if I do It. To
keep my room neater."
Prof. Hart: "I only made a resolu-
tion not to make any resolutions."
Blllic Moffctt: "To get to class on
time."
Mildred Reed: "To pass this short-
hand course."
Gene Farris: "I'm going to make
some more but I'll wait a while; so
there won't be so much time I'll have
to keep them."

Head Of BA Classes
Leads in DBC Race
For Congeniality
MRS. JEWEL BOWEN 8UTTON IS
FRESHMAN LEADER INTER-
ESTED IN 3CHOOL ACTIVITIES.
One of the leaders in the race for
the sweetest personality among the
Daniel tinker faculty Is Mrs. Jewel
Bowcn Sutton. In fact Mrs. Sutton
could have little trouble in carrying
off first place honors. She Is a small
chcciful person with beautiful black
hair and one of the sweetest smiles on
the campus. If she ever frowns It is
within the dark recess of her inner
closet where no one may sec. No one
who lias ever taken a course under
Mis. Sutton or with whom she has
come In contact will say anything
about her that is not highly compli-
mentary for every one of the stu-
dents who know her love her and en-
joy working for her.
Upon the small shoulders of Mrs.
Sutton is placed the responsibility of
the Business Administration Depart-
ment of Daniel Baker and she is quite
capable of shouldering that responsi-
bility. During the few years that Mrs.
Sutton has been among the members
of the fuculty of the college her de-
partment has steadily grown until this
year it hns reached its largest en-
rollment. This number of students
taking the courses offered in the de-
partment has i cached the maximum
this year. As a matter of fact the
limit which the facilities of the de-
partment will care for justifiably has
been reached this year. Students com-
pleting the Business Administration
com ses offered in this department
nre capublc of holding worthwhile po-
sitions any whet c. Almost without an
exception her former students are
now employed in various cities by
leading firms of the state and they all
attribute their success to the wise
guidance of Mis. Sutton.
Because she is seen little outside
of her department don't think that
her Interest in the college nnd its ac-
tivities ends thcic. In nil of the activ-
ities of the college she Is one of the
most loyal of Daniel Baker's boosters.
In anything that may atisc she does
Pep-Squad Plant Social;
Funds Are To Be Used
To Settle Old Debts
At a meeting of the Blllle Oo4s
Wednesday plans were begun far a
carnival which the girls will sponsor
within the next few days. The mala
featuie of the carnival will be a
womanlcss wedding. With the conclu-
sion of the carnival the debt contract
ed by the girls for their uniforms .will
be cleared. At a committee to Mt tlM
date for the affair and to begin prep
illations Margaret Cole Stella Eat
ley Jessie Beryl Chlsholm and Mar-
tha Weller were appointed.
After the carnival the girls rare
planning some kind of a social for
the oigunizallon at which time the
Blllle Co-ed season will terminate and
the girls will adjourn until next year.
Something new In the line of sports
will be introduced to Daniel Baker
this year when the Blllle Co-ed organ-
ization sponsois a basketball Invi-
tation tournament for girls. The date
for this tournament has been set for
February 4 and 5. Plans are already
under way for the days.
Iter sbatc to show that she Is true
blue Daniel Baker. The freshman class
this year chose her as its sponsor.
Receiving her first degree from
Noith Texus State Teachers College
in Denton Mrs. Sutton taught for a
time in the Business Administration
department of Taylor Texas high
school. From there she come to Dan-
iel Baker. She suys that the work she
is doing in Daniel Baker now Is "the
most enjoyable work I've ever had".
Besides her work Mrs. Sutton's
chief "likes" are reading her new
home here in Brownwood which has
been completed only a short time
and her husband who Is a teacher in
Brownwood Junior high school. Her
only dislike is students who do not
study as they should and consequent
ly do not receive the benefit from the
com. ses that is rlghtully theirs.
The mintage of wisdom is to know
that test is itist and that real life is
in laughter and work.
It begins to look as though the dodo
bitd should move over on Its perch
and make room for the dove of peace.

Fletcher Valentine knows tobacco
values. ..like so many other inde-
pendent experts he smokes Luckiest
"T'VE bought 4000000 pounds of tobacco at auc
JL tions in the past ten years" says Mr. Valentine
independent buyer of Westfield N. C "and my
bread and butter depends on making the right
bids. That's why I have to know tobacco values.
"Now I've smoked Luckies ever since 1918 and the
reason is they suit my taste to a T Nobody knows
better than we tobacco men that Luckies are made
of the finest center-leaf tobacco."
Yes and that isn't all. ..Luckies exclusive process
"It's Toasted" takes out certain irritants naturally
present in all tobacco even the finest! The result
is that you will find Luckies not only taste good
but are easy on your throat.
Surely.independent experts like Mr. Valentine make
good judges of cigarettes . . . Sworn records show
that amongindependent tobacco experts Luckies
have twice as many exclusive smokers as have ail
other cigarettes combined!
