Trouiii.ed One. It is hard to describe the Chro matic scale. The best way for you to do, is to visit the Armory at 5 p.m. and hear Bentley call " atten-t-i-o-n." P. M. Lee. Your question has troubled us consider ably, but you arc undoubtedly the champion, as We could find the record of no one who had eaten as much as eighteen eggs and survived. Q. T. --On the authority of U.K. Wheeler, we are able to state that the first Saturday in the month is the rcgulay day for sweeping out the Co-op. This import ant day will fall the Saturday before the Christmas Holidays end. H. L. K. Pratt's Hair Restorer (50 cents a pint) is the best that we know of. Some like Avers' I lair Vigor better, but we don't think it so good. Of course you must keep the lip well saturated in case you use cither. No, we cannot recommend a good dye. First Prep. Yes, you may call those iron revolving hemispheres on Nebraska Hall a little wind mill if you like, -but they do not turn machinery for Professor Allen. They keep the wind down to a moderate rate of speed. Culver regulates the weather in general. A. J. W. No, Arthur, we cannot get you a pass to go to Kansas. This editorial office has been afflicted sorely enough with that sort of thing. Besides, if these hard times continue we'll need all of our passes to get back to our wife's folks. Strike the Hesperian. Anxious Mother. No, my dear lady, foot balls are in no way related to corns or carbuncles. They are not protuberances on the feet at all. Foot ball is a popular college game that is rapidly taking the place of prize fighting and is used for the settlement of feuds. Enquirer You have been misinformed. Harvard and Yale are both older and larger than Doanc, al though they can scarcely be called so progressive. Doane is expected soon to cvolutc into a good high school. We rejoice at such steps of progress in the educational world. L. C. O. Most certainly not; no one would consider the step-ladder allowed for an instant in cavalry mounts. Your plan of driving stakes here and there over the practice field in order to enable you to mount with more facility is hardly practical. 2. No, always mount from the left side of the horse. II. E. N. (1) You should know, my dear Junior, that spectacles and a tanned leather moustache arc strictly Senior prerogatives. (2) No, better not take the solid girl to chapel. It is sufficient to meet her at the library door and take her to Polycon lecture. You arc young, Harvey, but you will learn. O. W. (captain) We are sorry to disappoint you, but we believe there will be no Indian outbreak or civil war in America for years. No, we do not know of any uiuuuicr war in progress on me eartii at present than the Jap-Chinese fight. We know of no editor who can furnish you transportation to Pckin witn tne oattauon. Better remain 1. ;
