Among those who have been on the sick list are Helen Jenkins, Clar * etta Biddiex, Edna James, and Louise Ousely. Tigue Bass, who has been out of school for several weeks, as a result of an injury received while he was playing on the school football team, returned to scnool Monday. In a recent edition of The Register the following poem, which was writ ten by Ollie Mattison, was published: An Eruption of Mount Etna The mighty port unmoved by ap proach of the winds, But Etna thunders with dread de struction, And sometimes belched a black cloud to the sky, With glowing sparks and black with whirlwind smoking, And raising balls of fire it licked the stars; At times while belching forth it cast up rocks, And torn vitals of the mountain cast up To the heavens, rolled up melted rocks with A groan, and hailed up from the deep abyss. The story goes; Eneeladus’ body, Half-burned by thunder bolts, was pressed by his weight From broken chimneys Etna placed above, A flame breathes forth; with smoke covered heaven, As often as it changed its wearied side. Flip of The Flapperettes By JOSEPHINE MARTIN Web*ter 4236 The Flapperette club was enter tained by Miss Sarah Brown at 2875 Binney street, Friday afternoon. Af ter the business meeting, the rest of the time was spent in playing cards. There were two tables of cards. The winners of the first table were Miss Catherine Williams and Miss Joseph- j ine Martin. Those of the second ta ble were Miss Louise Scott and Miss Sarah Brown. A lovely afternoon was spent by all. Doings Among The Staggs By JOHN PEGG Atlantic 7555 ^ -/ Overheard in the court house: Joe: “I understand that Dillard Crawford has joined the navy.” “Joined the navy?” asked Bill in surprise. “Yes, some one told me that he was a sailor or had gone to sea or something like that.” “Oh,” exclaimed Bill, seeing the light. "Yes, he did. He joined the army of home guards and set sail on the sea of matrimony for the land of happiness. The weather condi tions were very favorable and the water* were calm and tranquil. It was his first journey on the sea but he likes it and the atmosphere agrees with him. May they have a pleasant voyage.” In the laet few weeks I have no ticed that some of the young men about town have not been seen in company with so many different girls and are seen alone very freqnently. It was a pussle to me at first, but I soon realised that Christmas is very near. A1 Smith’s defeat evidently didn’t affect the boose market. The prices diy use. Jim Easley shouldn’t have any trouble keeping on friendly terms with people. He is a big fellow and whe nhe gets inside of that new coat of his, we know that the cartoonist’s drawings of college boys in their big fur coats are not greatly exagger ated. Bridge is becoming more and more popular. Jimmy Jewell got a lesson the other day in “How and When to Bid No Trumps.” He made a fairly large bid viilSuut having every suit stopped, and his opponents turned seven tricks before he could get the lead. The Bachelor Benedict club gave a smoker last Friday night and Joe Thomas entertained the boys with his ukelele and songs. As usual, everyone present enjoyed hearing him.
