The lace laid table carried a
Yuletide theme with red light-
ed tapers and Christmas colors.
A salad course was served con-
sandwich makers wanted to do.
Too bad that chicken neck got
lost.
Poor Lee Mova’s heart was

good time.
Tooty’s car sure does need
water often, doesn’t it? (Or
was it water?)
Tillie and Tom’s romance is
getting more and more inter-
esting, isn’t it? Especially
watching them making eyes.
Place: Biology room.
People: Biology students.
Miss Peters: Now we will
see who can answer more of
these questions, the boys or
girls. What girl wants the first
question?
The class: Sat still and wait-
ed to know which girl wanted
the question.
Larry: Raises his hand high
and the whole class laughed.
. . . (All because he had been
talking. . . .)
EX-SENIOR MARRIES!

the happy couple and wish for
them the best of everything,
which they so rightfully de-
serve. May their married life
be a long and happy one.

GOSSIP!!
What’s this we hear about
Lou and Sunday night!!??
It seems Blimpy just can’t
stay away from East Bernard!
Blimpy, we Wallis girls are
really slipping. . . . Can’t keep
our boys among ourselves.
How was the show Sunday
night, Merle? (Was it the show
or the night before?)

Dixie says she went to the

Dixie.
Poor Normie! It seems he
spent an awfully lonesome
week-end.
We’re wondering what the
special attraction in Houston
is, Cheatham.
We wonder what happened at
the dance of the Soph’s. Seems
as though Shine got the worst
of it. That toe, eh?
Wonder why Hundl didn’t
come to the party? Tillie sure
was lonesome.
Gloria V., you had better
watch out. Luella is beating
your time with Bennie.
Edward takes romance pret-

Sophs in English.
Wonder what Pauline and
some certain Junior girls were
hunting for Saturday night
with a flashlight? Couldn’t be
chickens, or could it?
So Edward and Sonny like
back seats in biology. We
wonder what all the attraction
is back there.
We H. E. girls wonder why
all salads have different names.
We would rather have them all
called combination salad. At
least all of ours turned out to
be a combination of some kind.
What was the joke that those
