In an effort to get more detail. on the social opener, Col. W. H. Oury, head of the University R. O. T. C. unit was interviewed. He chuckled as he gave us the details of his first ball date. "In those days," he said, "dates were a lot n ore expensive. Our bieeest Item of the evening was the carriage which cost from $2.50 to J3.00. Then there was a cor sage which cost at least $2.00 and tickets were about the price as thev are now. All together, a Military Ball date would average about $5 or $6 dollars. "Nowadays, a fellow CHn get by on $3 for the evening. It takes $2 for the ticket and about 50 cents for the taxi A corsage is no longer necessary, in fact. It is not essential to either the appear ance or taste of the ball. We dis courage it." Colonel Oury recalled vividly the many times that he had walked to the ball with a dale. During those days, the girl had her regu lar slippers and her dancing clip pers. It was not unusual to tee her escort walking down the street with her slippers under her nrms and then helping her change, after they arrived at the hall.

Sponsors 'Chinatown' Curios on Display in Ellen Smith By Margaret Krause. The living room 01 Ellen Smith has taken the appearance of a proverbial Chinese curio shoppe, with a flov-floy, for this is the week in which the Y.W. C. A. is sponsoring the sale of imported rifts. These articles took a sail of the Pacific to get to the sale of the campus, and if you like to browse, you 11 love to look over the unusual things which only the Chinese could produce. Out of teakwood, which Is so typical of the Far East, are carved coasters in carved containers, and tiny knick-knack boxes, for stamps, pins, and the like. And in the shiny brass line, there is a range of articles from tea pol.1 to candlestick snuffers, to cigarette snuffers, to carved hot dish hold ers, to candlesticks with a unique base? shaped like a bat, to dagger like letter openers portraying dragons, snakes, and swords. Rabblt-Halr Mules. An eye for the very different will immediately pick out the Chi nese stationery', or the Intricate wooden puzzles, or the embroi dered cigarette cases. Dainty tea bells, tiny rouge pots, turquoise rings with ring boxes of teak wood, and rabbit-hair mules are among the artit les which will in trigue the well-known womanly intrigue. In the line of linens are articles such as napkin bands, hand de signed and embroidered finger towels and hand towels, powder puff covers, coin bags, chair sets, and coin bags. Tiny cross stitch figures are done in twin patterns on some towels, while a pair of blue linen finger towels are de signed with cut-work in white. In Cloisonne, which is an enam eled surface with wire outline grounded about the design, arc such unbreakable articles as ash trays, bowls, and sets of nut dishes. These are colored in tvpleal Chinese, colors such as tangerine, bright yellow, turquoise, ami black. And on and on goes this list of articles, which is as new, dif ferent, and interesting to this school as a waltz Is to a modern jitterbug. An opportunity to browse among the curios comes from 8 to 5 each afternoon in the living room of Ellen Smith, and after this week, the entire display will be transferred to the city Y. W. C. A. Proceeds of the "Chi nese Bazaar" are used in aiding the work of Y. W. C. A. mission aries in China. ' er battery.
