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.”

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.”

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.”

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.

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.
