YESTERDAY
By Barthur Risbane
Guess you heard about Grady and
Lauef They both invited some body
to the dramatic club blow-out.
Ho-.rover, wo hear that it is not se
rious.
Seems that the Kowo family has a
wrcat attraction for Cruse. When one
leaves, there is a twin to reconcile her.
The past elections showed much of
“Hooey Long” tactics. We wonder if
these budding politicians received their
training in the Constitutional conven
tion which convened in History 1?
Harris says he can tell when Hogue
has been to Howell’s class. His suit
always looks as if it had been slept in.
In days of old when knights were
bold
And barons held their sway,
They took their orders from their
wives
Like Mr. Roberts does today.
Varner informs us that J. P. Mor
gan, Sr., is the father of J. P., Jr.
Elaine in government during a dis
cussion of national elections: “If the
Tuesday after first Monday came on
Sunday, when would the election be
held?”
Also heard in this class: “The sec
retary of state sits on the president’s
right hand.”
Air. Watson received a wilted spray
of lilacs from a loving student with
this card. “Prom your loving pupils.”
When you see all these couples moon
ing around together and not saying a
word, you may be sure that they have
have not had a quarrel. They are only
contemplating the dreariness of their
life after June 6th.
