Now that we’ve had our big Thanks giving spread and 1 am enjoying this 45-cent cigar, if you freshmen will gather up closely I’ll tell you how frightened I was when I receievd a rush telegram from papa stating that he had just purchased a $30,000 yacht for me for a birthday present. I was in Paris, Texas, at the time, being manager of the Jewel theater of that city, and maybe you think I didn’t close up my business at that place, as well as my theatrical connections at Dallas, so that I could go to Denton j to sail on beautiful Lake Denton in the new pleasure boat. This yacht is something rarely seen in the South; has a dancing pavillion, comfortably accommodating thirty- eight couples, and plenty of room for my father’s orchestra. You see, Fish, I am in continual contact with C. I. A. girls as they ; come in the store to buy candy. This makes me very popular with them—so popular, in fact, that they are all just simply crazy about their “Som.” There were very few nights this summer that I didn’t take a bunch of them out joy riding in my brother’s $6000 Buick. It’s a peach of a car, a nine-passenger, and has a detachable rear seat and ice tank. We used to put three cases of “milk” in this tank every time we went out to Lake Denton. Don t rush off, fellows, for I want to tell you about how that Brenham gir] fell in love with me at first sight. I would also tell you about how I was professor of physics in Denton High School, but since you must go to sup per, I won’t do it this time. Come back again, fellows. Remember the number —Ross 36.
