Energetic Patriotic Wahwahtaysees Back
Drive For Treasury's Schools at War Flag
At the helm of the McMutry
Collci'e (hive to tccclve the
hchools-nt-Wnr flag nwnrded by
the tieusui of the United States
is the Wah Wahtaysee Dium nnd
Bugle Cotps under the sponsoi-
ship of Willie Mac Chtlstopher.
Student diioctoi fot the campaign
is Rota Bolghls picsident of the
coips who has appointed icprc-
entitives from each class to lead
the dtlve in that patticular sec-
tion The class leadeis aio Kat
Chambirs Ellen Williams ftcsh-
men Jiinm Lou Thomas sopho-
iiioi o Wanda Smith junlot and
Beth Ainett senior.
Miss Chtistophci loceivod a re-
quest from the U S Tieasuty Do-p-u
tment to take pai t in this di ivc
for PO pet cent participation in
the logulai buing of war stamps

What about white gatdenias
next week?"
'Well I can't promise those
Not much volume ou know But
what about cat nations any color
t veept tuiquoise No? Okeh
But we ought to be able to order
some peifectl exquisite 'mums
Be all tight? Fine sign here
please "
All of which goes to show that
Swift or Armout and Company
have nothing to brag on when il
monies to the teiriftc promotional
sali s forces they have Salesmen
on campus ahcad show promise
of levolutiomzing the game
Pat ticul uly do we have in
mind John M Wells esq (Hunt
hall 6516 or before 7 30 5931)
dialu in hand-made imported
flow ers
Queried about his ovcipowci-
ing technique joung Wells smiled
and got out his sales book
W.inta see it in action?" Clutch-
ing our wallets this writer has-
tened to rejoin ' No Just tell us
about it "
Key to his whole enthusiasm
fm the work seems to be John's
laconic statement "I might like
to be a traveling salesman so 1
can see the lovely women who
would buy the flowers"
Wells started his new enterprise
about Oct 1 and has built up
i onsiderablc v olumc and sales in-
tucst as well as quite a reputa-
tion (especially with the guls of
Picsident and Hunt). His mother
who takes his ordcis and care-
fully makes the attractive pieces
of floial ait gives 50 per cent
of the profits to John
(A plug) Next time you need
some flowers for that special
pjit just call on Johnny he'll
fix jou up
FROSH HAVE CLASS MEET
Members of the Freshman class

After brief discussions the

month to help pay for their sen-
ior gift Outside business was
taken care of and the meeting
was adjourned
Note a club has been started
on the memurry campus it is the
