FRESHMAN STUNG BY
CRUEL VARSITY JOKER
Invited to Dine With Pretty College Girl But Not By Her
He Goes Up Against the Giggles of Wom-
an's Building Girls.
Special Dispatch.
Austin Tex. Nov. s.—The second
crop of practical jokes on freshmen
is beginning to mature at the state
university and the “poor innocent’’
who would avoid being involved must
keep his weather eye always open-
After a month away from home the
average freshman is pining for com-
panionship. He is only one of a great
variety and little or no attention is
paid to him. Bearing this in mind
one can understand the joy with which
one of them was called to the tele-
phone at his boarding house the other
day and received a most cordial and
urgent invitation to eat dinner at the
Woman’s building as the guest of one
of the young ladles there.
The fact that the young lady was
unknown to him did not worry the
freshman. He dressed in his best and
thought out several pretty speeches to
Pranks of Memory
WHAT MAY HAPPEN IN CASE YOU FORGET YOUR NAME
AND ADDRESS
"Officer please tell me where 11
am? I have forgotten my name and I
where I live. I don't know why I
am here.’’ So spoke a well-dressed
woman recently to a policeman on
post at Bush and Henry streets
Brooklyn. To the layman it may seem
mysterious that any one should for-
get his or her own name but such
cases are by no means rare and the
victims of these strange freaks of
memory often have most unusual ex-
periences before they succeed in be-
ing "found” again.
The young woman in Brooklyn was
suffering from what scientists would
call partial amnesia.
Just what is amnesia?
In common parlance It is a loss of
memory due to some lesion soften-
ing or partial degeneration of the
brain. Physicians know that In the
initial stages of amnesia sufferers for-
get first proper names then substan- ;
lives afterward adjAtives and verbs
then the language c< the emotions
and finallj’ gestures.
One would think naturally that our
most recent ideas or memories being
much more vivid than our older no-
tions. would be forgotten last. But
such is not the case. For thousands
of centuries our hearts have beaten
and our blood has circulated until
the memory of their functions has
become automatic and so firmly es-
tablished that death alone can sus
pend their operations. Again the
oldest human way of communication
was by gestures; the next oldest by
the language of the emotions; while
the present civilized way is by mod-
ern speech. Once more proper
names which are arbitrary are never
ingrained in us so solidly as is ordi-I
nary language. Whence it is not in
deliver in pink ears and sallied forth
to prove himself a social lion and a
first-class trencherman.
There was some trepidation when
the white-capped maid inquired the
purpose of his visit.
"I’m the guest of Miss Smith (that
was not her name) he replied.
When this information was con-
veyed to Miss Smith there was con-
sternation.
"But I haven’t invited anyone to
dinner” she expostulated.
Meanwhile the freshman waiting
patiently at the door stood first on
one foot and then on the other. Every-
one in the Woman's building soon
knew about the joke but no one had
the courage to break the news to the
unsought swain. Girls peeped at him
from every window but there was
I the least surprising that when our
I memory begins to fail we forget our
i own names where we live and what
we have just set out to do. An odd
and deplorable fact is that we remem-
ber how to swear (a language of the
emotions) long after we forget how
to talk.
In double personality we have in
' the same individual two distinct
memory conditions with their respect-
ive associations. Thus some persons
can be housebreakers at night and
honorable and respected citizens Id
day. Or they can be cranks at home
and the souls of good nature abroad.
Their two diverse personalities are
the result of different external condi-
tions. A man's wife may be estima-
ble and yet her personality may bring
out in his character traits which lie
dormant while he is in the presence
l of congenial friends.
But let us get back to amnesia. A
l man when intoxicated is said to dis-
! play his true disposition: and that
| statement is scientifically true. Li-
quor stupefies the brain causing a
partial amnesia. Hence a drunken
man forgets first his urbanity and
polish which being acquired traits
have not the stability of his innate
emotions. In hia peculiar condition
therefore he is usually profane over-
bearing and rude. When so far gone
i as to be unable to converse coherent-
। ly he can still swear and will often
I continue to mutter oaths with fluent
i persistency. The story of the drunken
man who lost something and could
i not find ft till he got drunk again is
'an illustration of the distinct second
personality induced by intoxication. —

Finally Miss Smith very milch em-
barrassed. went to the door.
“Whom do you wish to see?" she
inquired in a very grim voice.
“I was invited to eat dinner today
with Miss Smith” stammered the
treshman.
“Well I am Miss Smith." freezing- j
ly replied the young woman and I |
certainly did not invite you to din- j
ner."
The door was slammed and a J
shamefaced but wiser freshman wend- t
ed his way back to eat the "bull neck”
at the boarding house.
