Dere Rummitt: It is rumored that a train is com ing thru here today—please tell Louie Miller and Dick Wilson—so will write you so you will get a let ter from me before Xmas for the next train is Thanksgiving Day. The last train that was thru here came in sideways and killed two people and three other mules. I don’t think Marlin Smith has heard of his kin folks death. Please tell him, will you? I am having a great time here, teaching school—can’t smoke, can’t go to dances, and only teach physics, chemistry, algebra, vocational agri culture—all my spare time I coach the football team. I know now why the Lord rested on the seventh day.. I’ll “Swanny” I knew A. and M. would beat Sewanee. Reminds me of the Centre game. I guess—well, they say Sewanee was Jonohed, but I believe they were “Johnsoned.” The principal of the school here asked me to quit parting my hair in the middle. But I told him if I had to be an advocate of his Blue Laws I had to advertise the fact—“the parting of the ways.” The wind “blew up” the street here the other day—you ought to have seen the horse-fly. Remember you are a Senior this year—-so please don’t “get around” Ethyl—Ethyl Alcohol. As I said—I am teaching chemis try. I think I shall ‘dissolve” my self of my clothes, measure the ‘heat of combustion’ of a cigar—there is no one in the room—, ‘filter’ myself into my pajamas, ‘precipitate’ my self on the bed, and ‘synthethize’ a few hours of sleep. In my next letter I shall try to give you a good line. Think of this—if two parts of hydrogen and one part of oxygen form water what would chloroform? Chemically stable, Your Brother, Rufe. P. S.—I know you can’t guess the answer to the above question. Well, there are two possibilities. The ans wer is ‘e(i)ther). New laurels in new fields—screen- land’s Cleopatra in a story of sym pathetic appeal.—Adv. Announcing Corps Dance. Social Secretary, H. M. Tatum has disclosed the enjoyable secret that on the night of October 27, Sbisa Hall shall again allow its floors to be gamboled over by ramping youth to the dum-dum of the “Aggieland’s” Jazz. Which is but to say, that the night of the day after the football game between A. and M. and S. M. U. everyone in requested to “toddle” up to the door of Sbisa’s, take “one- step” through, “fox-trot” over and have their ladies’ cloaks checked, “tango” out on the floor and “kan garoo canter” for three and one- half hours. It is understood that M. O. GIps has some new Dallas dances, so, if you believe in progress don’t forget to have that date down for the dance. “Gips” will be there to show ’em. There will be others of us there like him, but I would blush to mention their names—also self-defense! The windows will be locked. Please come through the door and meet the receiving line. Be sure and have that Dallas girl down—they might not come to see the game, but for you and the dance—always.
