Morrison A group of men students at the University of Washington, who just returned from a course of study at the University of Edinburgh, state that “the girls not only have to pay their own cal’l’are when you take them home from a dance, but they always pay for their own tickets to a theater.” Canny men, those Scots! Of all pranks on freshmen all the hands of upperclassmen, we deem this the best: A freshman at Indiana university in dire need of a hair out asked an upperclnssman. where he could heal: gel: the job performed and was told he must get a pcrmitr from the university physician before the barbers would be allowed to work on him. The frofih spent the better part of one day trying to run down the physician for the permit.

Canada has only 23 recognized colleges as compared to 630 in the United States. Its largest college is the University of Toronto with 7,957 students. The largest one in this country is Columbia with a total of 30,588. Last spring the town of Hanover, where Dartmouth located, quired all eligible Dartmouth stu- dents to vote in order that it might collect a poll tax from them. in re- taliation, the efludents attended a town meeting, where they introduced and passed two bills, proposing the building of a Wall around the town eight miles high and the construc- tion of a city hall one foolz‘ wide and a mile high.

Smith company makes motor trucks and steam engines; habeas corpus is a medical term; “All Quiet on the Western Front” was written by Zane Grey; and lacrosse is a kind of row- boat.
