16 THE BATTALION BAYLOR COLLEGE (Continued From Page 7) this time too, they were playing basket-ball and spending lots of time on field and track., getting ready for the big field day. A great number of Sophs belong to the Choral Club, and they have just returned from the Choral tour with lots of new enthu siasm. By the end of this week they hope to have carried away all the first prizes in store for such worthy contestants. They also have a big part planned for the fete to be held on the college campus on May 1. They are looking forward with great pleasure to the last class reception of the year, the election of new officers for the Junior year, and finally the great Diamond Jubilee in June. ’22 BAYLOR. The Sophomore Class of Baylor sends you greetings and best wishes that your Battalion may lay all others in the shade. That’s our spirit, and we feel it is yours (n our first year in Baylor we gained recognition as the livliest class in school, and we at least think we still h\)ve that 1 onor. Of course we have co-eds in our class and our activities are slightly different from yours, but they just add pep to the Class of ’22. We have accomplished a few things since we have been honoring the institution with our presence. We have a nice little $100 Liberty Bond laid away for a rainy day. We trampled on the aspiring Fish in football last fall, as well as in de bate this month. On the occasion of the Fish reception this year we added ourselves to the entertainment committee to put a little spice in the welcome. We have accordingly been popular with the Judicial Council since that time, but it was worth the money. We gave the Seniors a a theatre party last fall, had a sun rise breakfast expedition this spring and have our annual lawn party to night. Our edition of “The Lar iat” this year, as well as last, was enough to make the other classes green with envy. We accordingly wish you the best of success with your Battalion. FIELD ARTILLERY. “Bang!” went the riffes of the in fantry at practice. “Oo-oo!” screamed the pretty girl-- a nice, decorous, surprised little scream—as she jumped back into the arms of a “Son of Rest.” “Oh!” she said, blushing, “I was frightened by the rifle. I beg your pardon.” “Not at all, not at all,” said the Cas ual, “Let’s go over and watch the Field Artillery.” ’22 NOT A. AND M. SENTIMENT. There had been a violent collision between a taxicab and a milk wagon on one of the main streets of the city, and an unfortunate passerby had sus tained a broken hip as a result. A crowd collected immediately and one sympathetic woman among the on lookers gazed long and pitifully at the victim. “Poor chap,” she said at last, “are you married?” A wave of emotion passed over the injured man’s face, and then his features went suddenly pallid. “No,” he gasped at length. “This is the worst thing that has ever hap pened to me.” ’22 HIS STANDING WITH HER “OLE MAN.” “I don’t think your father feels very kindly toward me,” said Mr. Staylate. “You misjudge him. The morning after you called on me he seemed quite worried for fear I had not treat ed you with the proper courtesy.” “Indeed! What did he say?” “He asked me how I could be so rude as to let you go without your breakfast.” ’22 THE FEMININE BAND. “What is it, children,” asked the teacher, “that binds us together and makes us better than we are by na ture ? Who can tell ? Little Ellen Smith’s hand shot up. “Yes, Ellen, can you tell?” “Yes Sir; corsets.” AFTER SHE LEAVES It’s too bad girlie, that we part, After the R. V.s fun; But all good things must come to an end And this includes my mon. I spent my last old buch on you, I hope, dear, you’ll stay true. Until I can recuperate— Lovingly, I. O. U. ’22 Who originated “non-reg.” W\HILE SHE IS LEAVING Girlie, I sigh and groan, My heart is filled with sorrow; For I shall be all, all alone Upon the bleak tomorrow. My eyes are wild, I look askance, I’ll weep when you are gone— Wont you come back for the final dance, I want you. R. U. On. HiMIIIIIMIIIIII'.lling 32^ aff- tjoar-'-ound soft drink.
