Romeo was, as you will remember, built on seven hells by the makers of Lux, guaranteed not to injure the finest fabrics. Juliet then went about vamping Plato, who had just completed his ten weeks' course in violin playing in five weeks. As he was not satisfied with the course he sent to the corporation to return the stamps which he had sent as first payment on the fiddle. But the company then asked if he would be interested in los- sons on the soprano sousaphone, to which he replied. that that was the last straw and that he would send. his dogs. Before he had time to remove his blue ox— lords, the representative fled. And that, dear chil- dren, is how the Revolution ended. —The Bongineer.

If the editorial column showed the thoughts of the editor in chronological order, instead of his thoughts after they are worked over, corrected. and revised, why it might read something like this: Chicago sure has one (deleted) of a climate; snow, wind, more snow, more wind, and so on till it looks like Alaska.

Davies, Assistant Pro-— fessor of Experimental gums-axing is leaving Chicago January 25 to attend a meeting of the Emerson Society of Heating and Ventila a Engineers to be held at the Benja- min Franklin Hotel at Philadelphia, on Wednesday, January 29. Profes— sor Davies will present his disco?- eries concerning ventilation under the title, “The Measuremwt oi the Flow or Air Through Registers and Grilles." All of Frofessor Davies work was done at Armour Institute during the past year and the results oh- tainerl were of such accuracy as to be adopted by the Chicago Venti- lating Contractors’ Employment Association as a standard. The adoption of Professor Davies for- mula has ironed out the controverv sy with the Board of Health, as it permits an accurate test of the ventilators. The work, first started personall" y by Professor Davies for the A. S. H. V. E., was done at Armour Insti- tute laboratories under the Insti— tute’s supervision. Professor Davies used the anemometer as always, but by careful research found the formula necessary for the measure ment of air which has some to be called the Davies formula. In connection with the meeting in Philadelphia, will also be an ex— hibit at which Professor Davies. will display worming models of his apparatus as well as pictures of Armour Institute and its labora— tories. Professor Davies will prob. ably return home on the first or second of February. headline writers and radio announc— ers, have gone, but the Big Ten has plenty of unique name: to replace them. “our ism-rmaoaewamsaooonouowuouer w modem-wooden.

Thought everyone understood the Letter Box was a place where those students not connected with the News could air their views and grievances. Such expressions should be taken for what they are worth. Reckon we'll have to run a head on the box saying “The views expressed inl this column are those of the one whose name is signed at the bottom.

The basketball team had a cold time on their trip out to Augustana. That N. U.-Armour game tonight ought to be a beaner. We beat them last time 24—22. Hope there is a big crowd. It is an absolute disgrace to the school the way the team is supported. A mere handful of rosters at the Armory gym at a game. the same ten or fifteen back the team at each game. There ought to be eight hundred and fifteen instead. If’i'we had a bum team it would be different, but we have a peach of a team, one of the best college teams in the middle west. Look at the win and loss record. Our team is the kind that is on its toes fighting every minute. For real thrills and speed. our Armour games are just about as good as they make them. It is a shame the fellows at school won't come to the games. They are paying for them. why don’t they attend? What’s the matter? It is too much to expect the team to. keep up their fine spirit and playing if the school doesn’t back them. A disheartened team is soon no team at all. We've got to get out and at least attend a low games. [remarked about his glasses being steamed.
