Grab your spectacles, sundry
souls, cause another of flagrant
yes and maybe stagnant, columns
has clattered off the shake and
shudder press to bring you the low
down on the high spots a ride
through the ribald rigamaro of the
college of pleasure knowledge.
Two moons have not shown
since this pungent pen has scratch
ed out the stories of the campus
chillun's sins and memories that
bless and burn. But the poohed
out past lies embalmed behind us
and there i s new business to be
stricken from the docket. Life
staggers on!
An ardent protagonist of the
love 'em and leave em type, Sig
koo Demson rocked the boys
over 16th street way, after the
Alpha Sig shindig, by revealing
that this old flittin around from
one love to another has stopped.
Reason for such action can be
found in Gladys "Penny Hender
son, a raven thatched lassie from
Wilson Hall. So it's a steady deal
. . . The adage "From little acorns
mightly oak grows" finds stosk in
the blind date deal Beta Justin
Berger and Theta Jean Johnson
got themselves messed up in for
the Beta house party last Satti
day Eve. Their mutual date state
is now A plus. . .
They'll Dance to T. Dorsey.
Look for people like Kay Smith
Alpha Xi and ATO Kent Harding
plus another Alpha Xi. one Betty
Klingle who is coupled with Jack
Glacely of the Delta Sig domi
cile, when you're dancing and
prancing to the music of T. Dor
sey at the Pike Friday eve. . .
A chap labelled with the mon
nicker of Willy Laurence whipped
into town fiom Humboldt this
week end to make Alpha Coo
Carolyn indie see stars through
the morbidness of the fog. . . Be
fuddled Baibara Morehouse, of
you know where and if you don't
you'll hear some time, had more
eggs in her nest than she could
cover last Sattidav eve when her
pin mate. Willy Koopman, from
Iowa state blew in to throw a
wrench in the machinery she had
set up with Jerry Buechler for
that eve. . .
Where'! the Pin.
And our notes are cluttered up
with some messy writing about the
mystery of the missing Sig .Alph
pin in the Tri Delt house with
aaid hunk of jewelry formerly be
longing to cr.e babe by the name
of Ray Lck and coming from a
chap named Eurdette Wallace.
Neither of the names are familiar
but it must be so because it says
ao here. . .
Alpha Phi Lois Christie, to the
imagined chagrin of her Alpha Sig
flame. imports a mystery chap who
calls himself Bill Hoberlson for the
Dorsey dance. . . And if you missed
it before, pick up the showing of
"The Shadow of the Thin Man" at
the Capitol picture house. . . Watch
Phi P.si Eob Muliner make hay,
sun or no sun. With a lassie called
Helen Fuller. . . Ar.d Sig Ep Robin
GeOwirk, who is linked with dor
mite Esther Hay Calhoun, keeps
chattering about marriage with
hut brothers. 'From big oaks little
acorns fall ". . . We're done now!

Uproariously ndo enthusiastical
ly received by a full house at the
Irving Junior High school audi
torium, Elsa Maxwell, fabulous in
timate and hostess of the world's
famous figures and of taxicab
drivers, delivered the last lecture
of her' career last night under the
auspices of the Lincoln Junior
League.
Upsetting her scheduled lecture
topic Miss Maxwell asked the aud
ience "Where is Your Sense of
Humor", adding the spice of a
completely impromptu "talk" as
she prefers to call her lectures, to
the natural charm and wit of her
extraordinary personality.
Defining humor as a sense of
values, of balance, which adds up
to the morale of a person, Miss
Maxwell said that humor is the
most important thing in the world,
and the best "trick" anyone can
cultivate. The art of laughing is
really the only thing that separates
man from animals."
Laugh at Yourself.
Miss Maxwell made a special
point of learning to laugh at one
self first, a lesson which she has
had to learn the hard way, ever
since her unusual birth in the op
era box during the opera "Mignon."
bhe has always disliked that opera
ever since, in fact has never con
sented to hear it.
She attributes her entire code
of living to her father who died
when she was quite small leaving
his only daughter no material leg
acy, only three rules for living a
full and happy life. These are:
Never be afraid of what other peo
ple think; never collect inanimate
objects because they will end by
collecting you; and finally, take
the light seriously and serious
lightly, and above all laugh at
yourself.
Enjoys Reception.
Evidently enjoying the reception
of the Lincoln audience, the lec
turer concluded her talk with a
question period and a game which
she played with members of the
audience.
Learning that the Town Hall
lectures series of the Junior
League, were to raise money for
their baby clinic, Miss Maxwell
closed her lecture by giving a gen
erous check for the fund.

There's satisfaction in knowing that the 6v
revenue tax you pay on every pack of twenty
cigarettes is doing its bit for Uncle Sam
And, when you buy Chesterfields, you
have the satisfaction of knowing you are
getting a superior blend of the world's test
cigarette tobaccos. This famous blend gives
you a smoke that is definitely milder, far
cooler and lots better-tasting. Make your
next pack Chesterfields.
You can't buy a better cigarette.
