20 THE ACORN First Student "I've got a head on me like Henry Clay." Second Student "More Clay than Henry." Shipp "Look at Hintz look over the top of his eyes." Prof. Bradford "Who was at the head at this time?" Student "The Pope." Prof. Bradford "Pope, who?" Student "Pope John." Ensign "Let me take your comb, Baggs?" Baggs "I haven't one, I never use them." Speaking about jokes on the faculty we wonder that Prof. Mills would run from a dog, and to fall down and break a tooth out seems to cap the climax. We suggest a body guard for future protection. Heber: (in Latin) "What does 'adire' mean?" Bea "Adire?" "To visit." Heber "To visit a dearie? May I, tonight?" So Bea had a date that night and next day was only half prepared with her lessons. Who are the sawdust twins? Echo answers, "Who." Mrs. Kunz: (in English) "The next sentence is, 'Him that over-cometh will I make a pillar in the temple'." Martha S. "Mother always taught me to say 'pillow,' not 'pillar'." Mabel: (in Shorthand) "What lesson is the second class on, the Pull?" Ethlyn "No, the Push." Prof. Mills: (in Shorthand) "Spell 'hook'; oh, you havent had 'hay'." No matter how wrong Jonathan Browning is; he it always right (Wright) It doesn't matter whatever Ellen Wright is doing, she is always ready. (Reddy) Mrs. Kunz "There are 1728 cu. in. in one cu. ft. and that number of cubic inches is the year Oliver Goldsmith was born in." Goddard "I heard you got the Chicken pox." Shipp "No, they got me." The Geometry class in session, when someone came into the room, on the run, It was Prof. Mills. After winking at everybody he exclaimed, "O! my class is in room 'N', aint it?" Our conclusion is that he has graduated from grammer. THE ACORN 21 They say Mr. Moench has caught her (Kotter). Lawrence R. (to Rhea, Nina, Lelia and Myrtle) "Come on fellows the bell has rung." The look on some girls faces would make Dumethylomidozobemyol, blush. Mary Tanner: (in Prof. Jensen's class) "Oh, papa is there any" But she didn't finish. Prof. Mills: (to a young lady in the back seat) "Mr Butler will you please read now." Will someone please tell Prof. Mills how to distinguish between "Mr." and "Miss?" (In Rhetoric during a quotation contest) Thad: (looking at Norma) "You love me not." Leonal Read "'Tis true, but I know nothing. Miss Cleghorn "The class accepts the statement". How to Find Budge. Sorority Girl "Go through the hall and the first tall fellow you, see smiling ask him to write a story for the "Acorn." Shut your mouth and open your eyes, And soon you will be considered wise. Wanted: A cure for bashfulness. Evans. A receipt for success: One cup filled to overflowing each of, Industry, Concentration, Enthusiasm, one pinch of ginger, one pinch of sand. Served with sauce of smiles. Prof. Jensen in theology was talking about Pharaoh's two dreams: "And behold seven ears of corn came upon one stalk, rank and good." Jo Eccles immediately awoke and exclaimed: "I have a corner on" And this was the day after Sunday. Why does Jo Eccles always pay so much attention to the organist in Devotional Exercises? Why does Victor Sears always choose his seat across the isle from Mabel?
