Due to circustances beyond our
control, we regret to bring you this
news so late. But who was it that
said “Better Late Than Never.”?
News came from the fronts that
the Yanks and Rebels didn’t know
what they were fighting about, but
one of the Generals stated later
in an interview that “this war is
being fought in order for Margaret
MitcheU to have a theme to write
“Gone With the Wind.”
All the soldiers have been fight
ing colorfully, because they want
to show up in the 1940 film well.
From time to time The West

rate reporters at the various fronts
will bring its readers the latest

I Wonder?
Authentic copy of a student’s
thought in a Social Science Class—
.... Mr. Hogan’s hair is stand
ing up in the back . . ’ He’s a
blond . . . Medals on his watch
chain . . . I’m cold—l wasn’t cold
this time last week . . . I’m
sleepy . . Wonder what shade of
lipstick that is that Mildred Mor
ris has on . . . Maybe Flame —
No it’s darker than that . . . .1
forgot to buy any bobby-pins yes
terday . . . Moon RdVer ' sang
“The Rosary” last-w T eek . . . What
other courses do T take besides
Social Science? Oh yes, I remem
ber now . . Which is right Dah
lonega or Dalhonega? Neither? .
Mr. Hogan wonders what I’m writ
ing—Hope he thinks I’m taking
notes ... If I knew what he
talking about, I would . . . Jane
McCain’s hair surely does look
good—Good looking blond, I’d
say . . . Earl Griffin is looking
sleepy too . . . The roof has been
leaking—there are damp circles on
the ceiling . .My arm itches . .
Mary Hughie certainly does take
a lot of notes—must know what
he’s talking about —wish that I
did . . . Better' write a letter to
Grandma this period—no use just
wasting my time . . . Wonder
what time it is . . . Earl’s sound
asleep now—wish I was . . . Ignor
ant looking class if I ever saw one
—guess nobody else knows what
he’s talking about either . . Al
most tune for the bell ... wish
that it’d hurry and ring . . .
Homer Turner just joined Earl in
a little cat-nap . . . Better wake
up my friends—There’s the bell.
THE WEST GEORGIAN
COLLEGE LIBRARY
TO BE ENLARGED
BY *20,000 GRANT
West Georgia College library has
been presented $20,000 by the Ju
lius Rcsenwald Fund to improve
and enlarge the present library
building. Of tht allotted sum,
$15,000 will be used to remodel the
building to provide for more space
while the remaining $5,000 wall be
spent for new tables, chairs, equip
ment, and books. It is expected
that work will be under way by
May 1.
Plans for remodeling provide for
an additional reading room which
will be similar to those now in
use. In the basement under this
room, the Materials Bureau will be
located, having it’s own entrance
at the fear of the building.
The same heating system is to be
used, but it is to be made more ef
ficient by replacing the French
doors with windows, which can be
better regulated so as to keep the
warm air within the rooms.’
The number of stacks in the
back of the library used for re
serve books will be increased. A
work room for the library staff is
to be constructed directly behind
the reference shelves.
The purpose of this improvement
is to givh adequate seating space to
the students and to .provide .for
room for 15,000 books.

One morning in assembly the
professor presiding sternly roared:
"When those young men in the
back get through flirting with the
girls, I wish they’d give me a
chance.” And he wondered why
everyone laughed.
I’m through with women,
They cheat and they lie.
They prey on us males
’Til the day that we die.
They tease us, torment us,
And drive us to sin.
Boy! Who was that blond who
just walked In?
