FUNERAL SERVICES OF HATCHET IIELI) FROM COLLEGE CHAPEL;
JUNIORS CHIEF MOURNERS.
Lowering gray clouds and the sullen rumble of distant thunder gave
an appropriate setting Wednesday for the funeral services of the Hatchet
'24-'25.
Atr.10:00 o'clock, with Miss Turner at the piano, the junior class en-
tered their pews. The black and yellow banner of the owls in conjunction
with the soft hoots of the class as they mourned for their dead, created
an atmosphere of the utmost solemnity. Immediately after the class came
the octette in their white robes and gloves. Next came Bishop Marion Mc-
Caslin in dignified black. Then followed the pall-bearers, bearing all that
was earthly of our long-cherished loved one, which they reverently placed
before the altar.
The octette sang "Yes, We Have No Bananas," after which Bishop
McCaslin spoke as follows:
"Because in the rythm of life there is decreed the rise and fall of
small and great, we are gathered together today to join to the realms of
the dead and departed the lively spritely spirit which for so long has
guided the helm of the ship of state of our class.
Through the wisdom of those who restrict the destinies of our college
careers, this one Was hampered at times by seemingly stringent require-
ments of conduct. But it seemed to bloom more bright after such periods
of repression, until at the time of death, it was lovely thriving thing, striv-
ing to make our college life as gay as possible.
Born in the fall of nineteen hundred and twenty-one, it lived a pre-
carious, conscientious childhood, until the spring, when life hit it full in the
face. Straight into the martyrdom it had prepared for it, our loved one
went, standing strong in the face of cares and troubles unparalleled in the
history of the institution with which it was connected.
Alone through a day in which hopes were shattered rudely and ruth-
lessly and roughly, but through a week in which its already rankling spirit
was harassed and embarrassed to the core—did this brave on carry its
slimy banner. {>
The next period of life was joyous, indeed—started with a keen edge,
steeled for a seige of cares and troubles, it flourished and grew as the days
toiled onward. Not alone by prowess of friends, but by slui-s cast by ene-
mies was our tbeloved one aided in strength. Until at the beginning of
the last lap of life's sometimes irksome race, conditions themselves justi-
fied the passing into oblivion of a spirit strong and pulsating with vigor.
Facing death with a cheerful smile, the spirit of rivalry of 25-24 car-
ried with it many banners and medals of reward well earned.
With you, who made class spirit possible, who kept our eyes and ears
wide open, who earned for yourself the credit for deeds sometimes called
underhanded, slick, and surprising, we bury our hopes and dreams of su-
premacy over the class of '24.
With you we interr—
A baseball championship lost in '21.
A basketball championship won in '21.
A Freshman day terribly butchered in '22.
A Sophomore week hilariously fulfilled at our expense in '22.
A baseball championship most agonizingly extracted in '22.
A track meet won in '22 and '23.
A picture of a Freshman queen procured through your mistaken efforts
at help.
We also bury: Our unwillingness to admit the class of twenty-four
all round sports.
While we lose you, bright spirit, we retain our admiration of our own
class, and our determination to be now and forever the class that made the
owl hoot twice. While your body is gone, we hoot still at your memory
and to our end we, too, will go, Owls of '25.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust—
Old Hatchet, you're gone—
You had to—or bust.
At this point she lifted a beautiful bouquet of paper roses and
handed it to Miss Norma Woodie Graham, president of the senior class.
"The body will be in state until noon today, during which time the
friends may visit the bier. Will the relatives and mourners please pass
by in single file and view the body for the last time?"
The pall-bearers were the first of the long line which passed in silent
sorrow before the altar.
—Requiescat en pace.
Last But Not Least
Well, we, the Academy Seniors are
all organized at last, and take it from
me, we intend to let the college know
that there is such a thing on the
campus as the said "Seniors."
We have elected capable young
women into offices and on them we
depend very much. "Nuf sed!"
As president, Miss Kathleen Logan
was unanimously elected and Miss
Lillian Enche was elected secretary-
treasurer and we have good inten-
tions as to the amount that will be
placed in her care. Sis! Boom! Wow!
is the best way I know of introducing
our reporter to the Pep Squad, how-
ever, I think she needs no introduc-
tion for she is Miss Elizabeth Hurst.
With this staff we are all set and
intend to fly our colors. They are
purple and "White and we are mighty
proud of them.
DINING ROOM EXPERIENCE
PEP SQUAD ELECTED
Thursday morning in chapel the re-
maining members of the Pep squad
were elected. The.squad is composed
of representatives from each class, in-
cluding the academy seniors, the pep
lear and four girls elected from the
general student body. The following
girls were elected by acclamation:
Ruth Williamson, Christel Alston,
Jessie Lou Kersey and Mary Terry.
The world is old and likes a laugh,
New jokes are hard to find;
A whole "Hand-Out" staff
Can't tickle every mind.
So if you see an ancient joke,
Decked out in modern guise,
Don't frown and call the thing a
fake;
Just smile—don't be too wise!
Did you ever stop to think what an
august affair is a meal ? I had never
contemplated it with the proper awe
and respect till recently. I walked
into the dining room, or rather the
ante-room to it, of a certain well
known school for women. Just as I
took my seat a bell jangled some-
where in the dim and remote regions
above me. Instantly the quiet was
shattered by an unearthly clamor—
feminine squeaks and cries mingled
with sounds like a troop of cavalry
on the stairs. Doors burst open on
all sides and erupted a swarm of jab-
bering, gesticulating girls. As I gazed
upon the scene I was irresistably re-
minded of the maelstrom of Poe. Af-
ter a few moments, when my senses
were reeling from the contemplation
of the ceaseless activity, a door open-
ed and the multitude surged into the
dining room. I was swept along by
the force of the rush.
I took my seat after grace had been
said, and skilfully did my part in
maintaining the solemn hush which
succeeded. I saw girls whispering
important secrets into the ears of the
diners. Presently one of them ap-
proached me with noiseless tread and
a glitter in her eye. She bent over
me and whispered a state secret.
"Will you have coffee or cocoa?"
I assumed the properly attentive
and reverent air and answered her.
From then on the meal was an elab-
orate function served on the install-
ment plan. The only difference was
that the pay days of the installment
plan overlap each other like shingles
on a roof. In this case there were
blank intervals. Finally in one of said
intervals I got up and left, but I have
never fully regained my poise.. I have
not been the same man since that ex-
perience.

has it that everything came off beau-
tifully until he started in the parlor
and Marjorie hadn't been down and
informed everyone of said date, so
consequently some girls happened to
be "parking" in there when he came

WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF
you were desperately in love with the
only man in the world—
And had decided that he didn't love
you any more, anyhow—
But you hadn't heard froi* him in
three days and didn't know-—
And had decided that he didn't you
any more, anyhow—
And then one night he called you, and
you went down—
To the telephone with your heart in
your mouth—
And the connection was bad an.d you
couldn't understand— -
And he said something about "come
Sunday"'—
And you were not sure what he
said, but replied, "Good!"—
And then went upstairs and won-
dered and wondered—
Whether you had said the right or
the wrong thing—
What would you do?
I did, too.
I thank you.
SOME SWEET SOPHOMORE
SOPHISTRIES
Glue has a great mission, hasn't it?
It's a wonderful calling—the business
of making things stick together. "To-
gether we stand, divided we fall." That
was said a long time ago and history
has proved it to be true over and over
again. Yes, it pays to stick together.
You ask adhesive tape if it doesn't.
What can any group of people hope
to accomplish if each goes about it in
a different way ? It's the leading club
that hangs together, the winning class
is the one that goes after a thing and
goes after it as one person. But a
century and a half ago thirteen little
colonies "stuck together" and made a
go of it. They handed down to us the
duty of "sticking together," and we
have it to do. We can't let chewing
gum get ahead of us. Besides, that's
the only thing to do if we want any-
thing, make somebody else want it
and then make them stay with you
until you get it. Therefore, Sopho-
mores, it seems that the thing for us
to do, right in the beginning, is to get
the "adhesive habit."

Please Tell Me This
Dear Editor:
They're all the time bavin' some-
thing in this paper about something
being mysterious. Well, here's
something I'd like to know. I live on
the second floor of Ann Waggoner,
and there's something going on in
there that I don't understand. There's
a room from out of which I hear quite
often the most awful yellin' and
screamin', and all to the accompani-
ment of a much repeated sound which
sounds like "Ka-Zoop." That happen-
ed five separate and distinct times
last Sunday. Now, I'm not curious
or anything like that, but I think the
matter should be looked into, don't
/ou? I'm always scared to go in
there when [ hear the yellin'. Oh,
yes, they always laugh, too, at those
times I spoke about. If you can find
out about it and tell me, yours truly,
—A New Girl.
Notice.
How will we get to Dallas
On that Texas-Vanderbilt day?
We'll have to do like the Arabs,
And silently steal away.
