Well, about eight o'clock some ma
sic was heard. It was the oddest mu
sic, rather shrill and ghost like. First
it sounded like bits from operas, then
like jazz. It was really very wonder
ful, but there was something about
it that sounded strange, a sound that
one had never heard before. You
know, you can always distinguish Vic
trol;1. music on account of the little
"tinny" sound and you can tell a piano-player
because it is so accurate
and beats out such perfect time; but
this wasn't either of those, it was en
tiroly different.
aNturally, when this music was
heard everyone was anxious to find
out from whence it came. It wasn't
any fun groping i-.bout the campus
trying to find the course of the queer
music, especially whent it was pitch

When the week-end rolls around
aaeh time it is only human nature to
wonder what will be on next week'
end. Now wonder if you want to
grow gray hairs, but why trouble
your feeble mind when the Ags have
been working for a year to entertain
you for one day at their Farmers Fair.
Say! That scowl will fade from
your map when you see comics of
the parade and it will never return
The sole aim and ambition of the
funfest of Farmers Fair is to make
you feel better the next day than
you did the day before. The dope is
in the bucket about the great Carni
val. The lid is on tight now but this
much slipped out. They have in stor?
for us twenty-fifive of the best shows
that ever the minds of man or woman
concocted. Ingenuity and originality
are the only terms that apply to the
character of these treats; what's more
they are all to be arranged along a
pike so you can't miss them as you
rush madly about over the campus
in that wild scramble to see every
thing. You'll stop as you hit the
pike and take it slowly for there
will be millions of laughs to be seen
and the farther you go the funnier it
will get. All the freaks and wonders
of the world presented in real Ag
style is all that can be promised now,
but come and see what this means
on Farmers Fair Day.
dark. Heavens! That was an awful
sensation. Sometimes the music sound
ed as if it were right behind and one
would turn about with a jerk to find
himself surrounded by darkness.
It was suggested that the music
might be from the rehearsal of the
Kosmet play, but after listening more
closely, everyone decided that that
was impossible. Surely the Kosim-t
Klub wouldn't offer music 0f this
spiritualistic type, but, of course, one
can never tell, for the litle of the
play, "Knight of the Nymphs." miphi
suggest almost anything. Anyway, it
was found that this vas not the
cause of the music.
Someone said that it lnkht he the
University orchestra praeticing over
in Library Hall. Well, the l'niersiiy
orchestra has never been known to
give anyone the chills and fever at
one pop, so that was absolutely out
of the question.
If Sir Conan Doyle had been around
he would surely have said that at last
the veil between this world and the
nxxt lias been pierced, "music is
something from the dead." Ol
iver Lodge would have said that his
dtad wife was singing to him, or else
that the music was the voico of an
gels. Angels, the bunk. That music was
a radio concert that was being sent
to the people at the radio building.
What do yon think of that?
My, it surely is the berries not to
be acquainted with these new fan
dangled processes. A lot of worry
and goose pimples could be saved if
one were.
