The Naval Academy at Annapol is has the goat for Us emblem. Do you, worthy opponents, think your self better lhan the boys in the highest ranking naval academy in the world. The army has the mule for its emblem. The army is not he hawed at; do you not think yourself jnl'allible enough to be critlctHed a little Maybe? this old saying gives the reason for your op position: "The truth Is what ■i he iSS hurts.” Maybe you are hardheauki and do not desire the truth to be I told. The section which your repre sent Is known as the Piedmont section. It is the section of hills. Are you ashamed of your hills? You are known the state over as the hillbillies. D the truth still boring you? Auburn men are known as the Plainsmen, for the simple reason that they live on the plains, Sewaneee men are known as the Mountaineers, only because they live in the mountains. As na-1 tives of the hilly section, are you going to be ashamed to admit the place you are from? Surely not The above mentioned schools have two names , Auburn, the Plains men, but due to the fact that this names suggests no emblem, they also call themselves the Tigers. Nearly all colleges have two names, we would be setting no precedent if we chose a “more dig nified” name for our second name. To those who think they shall be drowned by the “Baa’s” of the outside, we wish to remind them of this characteristic of goats. Goats fight for their rights and de manu respect. Just play with their mustache and see where they will set you. There is the opinion that all goats are hard headed. If tin incident of the Three Billygoai Gruffs is re called, it will be remembered that i they keenly outwitted their oppon- j ent.

Ruucils, our distin guished History Professor, says that, the only way to have peace is to tight Avars. Frank Parker says the Protes tants received a hearty welcome in Scotland due to the reduction of Lire church dues and Catholoeisru immediately was a lost cause. Prof. Strozier: Monsieur Knight, have you ever had any other for eign language?’’ Goof Knight: “Nothing but Eng lish, Sir.” Dr. Boyd and Miss Cowen at tended the Georgia-Tulane game.
