Why all the fuss over who is
trying to imprers who? The fact
remains, if you have IT, you'll
get credit if not well, maybe
that s what started the "mud
slinging." It's my opinion that
men- don't know half as about
women's clothes and make-up as
they think. Here's a bit of ad
vice. Unless that guy is THE
guy, don t take his word for any
thing.
Most girls know how they want
to look and strive for that goal
Not all of them get there, but
beauty isn't everything. Very
often, beauty has to take a back
seat to lots of other things. If
you have (or can find) these
"other things," you will probably
make out.
Other Side.
Now for a look at the other
side:
By now, girls should know that
there is bound to be repetition
and if she complains too much
about "hearing that line before"
then start the car and drive her
home. (Just ask any girl she'll
tell you that she never "parks")
After all, fellows, if she had heard
all of your "lines," then she is
probably too fast for you any
way.
When she starts complaining
about your crooning and I've
heard that some of them do a
good Barn Dance program would
be a wonderful cure for that.
No One Perfect.
One could search all year and
it's very unlikely he would find
anyone, male or otherwise, who
could be crowned perfect. It all
reverts back to the song we
learned long ago "Ruben and
Rachel" If you've forgotten, it
goes: "What a strange world this
would be, if there were no peo
ple in it saving you and maybe
me.
As long as we have to remain
on earth together, lets try to be
friends and have fun. When your
time comes and you have de
parted from this mortal world,
those of you who will be soar
ing "up there" AND those who
didn't earn their wings, will wish
they hadn't been so particular.

Corn Cobs

Work among the pledges takes
a good deal of time. A man who
pledges Corn Cobs and wishes to
become an active has little chance
unless he has at least 135 or 140
working hours 'in the organiza
tion. Each hour given to a pledge
means that he has put in an hour's
work or the equal of that time in
quantity of work.
Intended services in coopera
tion with the Tassels during the
year and coming years will be:
Sales of yearbooks; checking iden
tification cards and maintaining
order at matinee dances; mass at-,
