It was just n ninior nt first. Maybe the campus
®quniels stalled it or mavbe the Locust Lane lobins
chnped it too loudh, but one dn\ in that exceedingly
unusual and danmablv hot cm net place we heaul that
the the O. E (Omelette Enteis’) house
xheltoied the most dazzling and that mini; as*oit
ment of American womanhood in the entm* summer
session Hastih gathennj; togethei oui snfun, we
ticKLed thiowl'll the Kappa Sig jungle, nuns* the
D
U. veldt, and lwall> i cached the 0. E Oasis after
having inn h\os onrlungeied by piedatoi} cheviolels
and mmaudtng fords which inTost that part of the
continent in \ast nunibeis, especially after a nightfall.
Eime-01-llimes, tanking amii of-the tube, welcomed
us piofusclv we weie the fust white men he hail seen
foi months. All the lest of the male population out
that wav had been baked to a shoe-polish brown, giv
ing themselves n moie Uncign aspect than usual
An}how we entcied and sat down be-ule a par
ticuluil} attractive hiunette to waihle about the
weathci. It was some horns later that we discovered
that she was the chapeione Ah, vvhj is life like that*
Then who should hove in sight but Edith Wainnght,
weaier of Hunting led heiets and abbieviated bath
ing suits, besides holding the open championship for
soup-ladling and ihailev-hoises Imagine our con

wintci session cnmpaigneis, vacationing at this de
lightful spot Theie’s a fellow named llens7ev and a
roadster called a Packard that hang wound theie a
lot also, fm some season 01 other Then aftei a
glance at Irene Steltm and Nitnev Ream, we decided
that the mmot was well founded.
Being lathei intellectual and cuitous anvvvnv,
mo tiled to distovei a icnson foi thi* unnatmal
phenomenon. Nwei hefoie outside of Eml Canol’s
Vnmtiei had we '-eon such galnw of beautiful gals.
There vveie thiee things to which we could
liace this mvsteiy hist, Eddie Walkei, the populai
sleek-haued waitei, second, Jeuy Mans, the
moustache-twistmg, ciooning head-waitci, and thud
Bilious Bill, the best chef that evei undo tea in a
ccfTee pot And somehow \\d think the chapoione
aNo had something to do with it
The whole seiaglio gathered in the telephone
looth to cheei us as we started hack to ci\dilation,
hut just tnen the telephone tang ami se\en weie killed
