AWGWAN IS OUT I
The loading article in this month's Awgwan is found on the back cover.
We quote : "This fall the correct dinner jacket is somewhat looser " There
is a kind of restrained finality about this opening sentence of the article
that makes us think of the Greek tragedies. It is full of "pity and terror,"
or whatever it was that Sophocles was full of.
A regrettable laxity of the usually high standards of the Awgwan is
seen on page 1, where some unknown person, presumably a gentleman, is
shown in a tuxedo, with arms akimbo and hands on hips. Such a tendency
toward carelessness and. laxity is to be deplored in a magazine such as
Awgwan, which should set the standard for the campus.
Toward the middle of the issue there are a few stories and jokes.
The best joke is found on page 6 under the heading, "Board of Edi
tors." The redeeming feature of the "Sneak Number" is a diary on page 17.
There is a vigor of wit about it, and a grace of style which leads us to pre
dict a wonderful career for the author. It was written by Claire Montesrey.

SONG.
Dark hair and brown eyes,
Yesterday we parted;
Be not cast-down eyes,
Leave me not, sad-hearted.
Soft hair and grey eyes,
Now we laugh together"
Laugh in a gay-wise,
In the autumn weather.
Fair hair and blue eyes,
Come to me tomorrow;
Laugh in a new-wise;
We will laugh at sorrow. CELIA.
A SHORT REVIEW OF "MARTHA."
But why should the thing have been sung half in Italian and half in
English when the scene was Richmond, England? Yet none of the char
acters seemed to have any difficulty in understanding each other. When
Plunkett told Julia, in Italian, to take off his cloak for him, she understood
him well enough to retort, in English, "Do it yourself."
a
What there was of "Martha" was highly enjoyable, as the dramatic
critics say, but we object vehemently to paying (what was it? $2.20?)
for four acts and getting only three. Should not one have got back some
change or something? Perhaps a rustic audience was not supposed to
notice the omission.
It worries us, we must say, when there is drinking on the stage not
because we are an ardent W. C. T. U. worker, but because the steins, wine
glasses, mugs, what-not, are always so obviously empty. There is something
(What's the adjective that means having an air of sleight-of-hand?)
about a man's tipping up his stein with a sweeping gesture and drinking for
a matter of five seconds without swallowing.
Twenty Years Ago
As a climax of the presentation of
the bill for fifty-eight dollars for the
caps which had been burned by the
class of '07, the spring before, and
which they had neglected to pay for,
the president of the class had ap
pointed a cap committee. The class
was again to make the attempt to
bring class caps to the campus. These
caps were bought at wholesale and
then retailed to the members of the
class with a good margin of profit
The profit was to make up the bal
ance required on the bill. The head-

I'LL BE KING.
I have dreamed a heaven
That you know not of
A heaven it's no shame to love;
Another world where I'll be king,
And all my enemies the conquered ones.
And I'll be king, in deed and word and look:
A book I'll write that none can understand,
But all call good because I'm king;
A song of mine will be 4he music of the spheres, .
And I shall feel supreme for years on years.
Yes; when I've laughed at men, and they
Have laughed at me
When I have seen a million eyes, indifferent to me
I'll win my heaven, undeserved or not,
And 111 be king. RA.

THE PEUDESAVANTS CRITICIZE.
A diversity of conflicting tendencies are revealed in the records of the
Lost University of Peudesavants a tei.dency here to get liberal instructors,
a tendency there to offer easy courses; a move here to raise the admission
requirements that only the best might remain in the institution, a move
there to run to athletics and extra-curricula activities of every variety; an
attempt here to serve the students who thirsted for knowledge, but a
counter tendency to cater to those whose ideal of a great University were
expressed only in numbers and statistics, in larger buildings, more fads,
better football teams, and "education" to as large a number as could tread
the campus f(jr four years.
Organization Scholarship.
At one time the executive body of professors and deans saw fit to pass
regulations which raised the standards of scholarship materially. One of
the rules was that any organization connected with the institution could
not fall below the general average of those not members of the organiza
tions What a protest there was! A direct blow at such organizations! It
seemed to some that it was unfair to require the more comfortably situated
students to keep their grades up to the level of their more serious, but less
socially inclined contemporaries.
DR. SWIFT.
OF FRESHMEN.
Freshmen, according to the professors, are divided into three classes:
the dumb, the sub-dumb, and the super-dumb. I can make still finer dis
tinctions, but the division is arbitrary and unsupported by any weighty
authority other than my own, Briefly, there are three classes: the campus-walkers,
the movie addicts and the book-perusers.
I hesitate to speak of the movie addict, since the study of the degen
erate always furnishes unpleasant material. The truth, however, no matter
how hateful, should never be suppressed in any serious treatise. This in
sidious fever grows steadily, once it has gained a foothold, and its thirst can
scarcely be quenched by daily indulgence. It wreaks untold havoc; it com
pletely lulls and puts to sleep any beginnings of mental activity and inflicts
deadly ravages on the pocket-book.
The campus-walker needs no careful description; he is the most com
mon of all the species. The most illuminating thing that can be said is that
any member of this class could write an authoritative article on "What a
Klassy Kid Should Wear." And after all what is there in life more worth
while? I suggest that some of the more tireless campus-walkers go out
for track.
The book-perusers are as a class becoming more and more extinct.
They vary in temperature through hot, medium and cold. The cold go so
far as to purchase text-books required and to look at the pictures contained
within The medium have mastered the rudiments of reading and even ex
ercise their knowledge in private, although they take great care to conceal
the crime. The hot apply themselves feverishly to vest-pocket editions.
They are broken out with thick-lensed glesses and superior manners.
THEODOSIA.
One of our weird American friends tells us a number of stories from
time to time about the wonders of this great nation. His latest is about
an American cigar of which the smoke, as thick as sorghum rmlase., afW
ascending, formed in large grey drops on the ceiling, and dripped to the
floor.
Our Chinese correspondent informs us that cross-word puzzles were
the vogue in Korea as long ago !s 791 B. C. From there it passed to India.,
as is discovered from the repetition of the name of Calcutta in our modern
puzzles and the use of the mystic Brahmin word "Om."
Upon investigation, we find that the modern variety was started by an
association of dictionary manufacturers, headed by Funk and Wagnalls.
