Programs for the dance will be in the form of tlefense stamp books, decoratively bound. Ip 'lace of corsages, we recommend, along with the . dance committee, that one dollar's worth of de . f.ense stamps be purchased at Student Union, *fasted in the program booklet, and presented to . tremor Ball dates. On purchase of the stamps at ritudent Union a patriotically colored ribbon will t, e given out which may be worn by the girls in -place of flowers. Certainly, girls going to the dance would be willing to make such small sacrifice as this ges !Lure entails. Of course, no one has the right to way whether giving corsages or defense stamps will be the thing to do. It is entirely up to the The cutting out of all big dances and similar rocial events would be deplorable in.regard to ;;tudent morale, but while we're still fortunate t,nough to have them, any help or aid we can snake in the defense line should be backed up ‘vhole-heartedly, it seems to us. Really Honor Men new system of electing outstanding 'senior 'Llen to the five honor positions—spoon man, bar k-el man, cane man, pipe orator, and class donor— ,.as been instituted this year. We believe that this new plan of sending return postcards to all senior men on which the 10 candidates will be itisted should make for a much more worthwhile 11:radition on campus. In the past, when a hand ful of seniors have attended class meetings for this voting, the "honor" of being an honor man v - as dubious. There will be no speclal qualifications for each honor as in the past; instead the candidates will chosen according to the number of votes re iceived-the high man becoming spoon man and r;c. on in this order: barrel man, cane man, pipe tlrator, and class donor. Last night ten campus leaders were nominated :Cloy these honors. Within the next month when :L•eturn postage postcards will be sent to all sen- ;ior men, there will be plenty of time to size up tithe candidates and make wise choices.

"I am in love," said Max "Ah," •said E s erdy, "there's something signifi cant in that statement.

Asked Max. • "That'S beside the point." • "There is no point." "Don't be difficult," said Ferdy. "You've said you were in love. Therefore we have something to discuss because love is a topic of conversation. Now every good topic must haVe at least five basic divisions. Thus we'll have to find the a, b, c, d, and e of the topic of love. Let us say then: (a) love is an attraction between the sexes.", "Love is the song of a bird in the winter," said Max. "You're snaking' it too simple," said Ferdy. "How can I make it what it already is?" "We must find b, c, d, . and e bare it can be simplified," shouted- Fcrdy. "Foo-foo," said the mock turtle. "You're wasting my space. There's a six-inch ad under me." "Now you're talkin'," said Max. "Don't avoid the issue," salid Ferdy. "Come Out bf your shell." "I'm as much out of it as possible," said 'Max. "I'll never come all the way out because I have ugly wrinkles' inside and 'you wouldn't like their. The shell is much more beautiful." "If you can't tomle all the way out, you should not come 'oat at all," said Ferdy. "It's less boring to stick your neck out now and then " "That gets you into trouble." • "I can always pull it back in again." . . "Stick to the subject," said Ferdy. "You've said you were in love, but you're not even inter ested in knowing what love is." "I don't have• to know. I can feel what it is." "You're not using your head." "I am in love, and where love is concerned, the head is incidental, so . .." and Max pulled his head in. Ferdy wiggled away in disgust. i .
