Description
every day so I guess he's tryin to get some sleep so he'll be awake for
Commencement.
Then there's Curran, he's got loveli fluffy hair jest like yours. He
went to De Witt for Easter and ever since he's awful happy, smilin and
laffin at hisself. I guess he saw some one he likes better'n himself.
Well, I guess this letter an me must be quits now as the prefect will
be gettin his eyes crossed lookin at me.
Give my best to your ma and pa, and the little angora.
Yours excessiveli,
Mattie.
LAUGHABLE
Prof.—"What are you laughing at ?
Lindle—"Nothing, I just had a thought."
Prof.—"Well, keep on laughing then; it's
very seldom that you entertain thoughts."
OVERHEARD ON VALENTINE'S DAY
Rhoddy—"Well, this is Valentine Day."
Nieters—"Yes, and also my birthday."
Ambrose—"You don't say so."
Nieters—"Yes, it was just eighteen years ago
today that the mailman had me in his possession,
and judging from my appearance today, he must
have been considerably relieved by dropping me
SNAKES
Stackhouse—"I saw a garter snake about six feet long."
H. Steckel—"Get out; garter snakes are not half that size."
Stackhouse—"Well, anyway, I saw a snake that was wrapped around
the 'limb' of a tree."
THOSE LITTLE BROWN SPOTS
Collins (in Reading)—"What letter comes after H in the alphabet?"
Britt—"I don't know."
Collins—"What have I on each side of my nose?"
Britt - "Freckles."
BONE DRY
Fr. S. (in English)—"Now for the next class I want you fellows to
bring in an essay on Prohibition.
Hines—-"Rather a dry subject, isn't it, Father?"
For once (?) he had no answer.
REDUCING
Gilbert Waters—"Oh, Joy, I've lost ten pounds."
Hurley—"Don't worry, Fat, you'll never miss it."
