When the college was founded, all students were required to print their names on their clothing, thus making it possible for all -the stu dents to know their colleagues’ handles. However, this process of labeling one’s clothes was too slow. Rejc Smoltz, then head! of the college laundry, volunteered that department's service to label the clothes.

Such a man reared other day and informed us that Horace Greeley never said “Go West Young Man, Go West.†Not only that, but our reliable informant further claimed that the true ori ginator of the statement was referring to an area no further West than the Mississippi Valley. How thankful we should be to the man that just corrected our poor disillusioned minds. Just think of going to your death bed still thinking our boy Greeley was the one who spouted wise. It certainly is a relief to ' at last know the truth. 1 ' . [ f ’ ★ All you sentimentalists draw up your chairs and prepare to hear of a love story rivaling Romeo and Juliet for tenderness. " This gripping tale too has an eletnent of tragedy. J v Unromahtic flatfoots in Atlanta, Georgia, arrested our hero the other day and with little or no tenderness deposited him in the clink. They booked the lover on some minor charges, bigamy and non-support, and sought to break up his second, slightly ille gal, marriage. i : j ' J .
