If you haven't already done so, you'd better get on the stick and hurry and get your picture taken for the yearbook. You should make an appointment as soon as possible with Mr. Rabe, at the photographic lab in the Moench Building, on lower campus.Mr. Mikkelson, yearbook advisor, asks that when you do make an appointment and try to remember to keep it. For convenience, students who are in Physical Education classes will be excused from their classes to have pictures taken. According to Mr. Mikkelson, the price of having pictures taken, will be 50c. With this price, the student will receive a copy of the picture for his own keeping, as well as his picture in the yearbook. It may be possible that other arrangements for having pictures taken, may be made next quarter, but for the time being, students should try to make arrangements for this, as soon as possible. aiiiiiiiniiiiGiiiiiiiiiiiiDiiiiiiiiiniaiiiimiiiiiBiiiiiiiiiiiiDiniii EMORY'S COUNTRY CLUB I ( DRUGSTORE I 3924 Washington Blvd. We Write American Express Money Orders Siiiiitrjiiiiiiiiiiiiaiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiaiiiiiiiiiiiiaiimiiiimi-nxiiiMiiiMiDiiiiiiiiiiiiDMiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiaiiiiiiimiirjiiiiiinWonderful WINTER 1 I WOOLENS I 1 THE BUTTON!

So one bright and cheery morning, having nothing better to do (except Math, English, Chem., etc.), I set out to explore and record for posterity the numerous aspects of the lovely Colonial-style mansion which graces the view to the south from the steps of Building 3. After an arduous hike through the dormant gas buggies and almost impenetrable jungle surrounding the place, I came at last to the chateau itself and after scaling the battlements, gained entrance to the inside. The first note of interest was that my foot was caught in a hole in the floor, seriously hindering progress. However this situation was remedied by a quick amputation and progress continued. The next note of interest was the sliding panel in the wall which opened at a touch (just like in T.V.). Progress Continues Progress continued as I cautiously started my descent down the stairs (did you ever see a sliding panel without stairs?) and then speeded things up by falling the rest of the way. At the bottom was a door marked Madame de Bovarys Turkish Baths. 'Feeling the need of a bathed Turk, I entered. The room in which I found myself was not a bath" at all but a very nice little bar complete with hot and cold running bar maids. The murals on the walls subtly suggested a chapter from the life oi uomte ae baae ana aown at tne other end of the room a small stage was set on which a miniature piano was perched. At the piano a dapper young man was sitting, softly playing the Moonlight sonata with a boogie beat. Short Order The bar itself ran along one wall, so I ran with it and ordered ELIZABETH'S FLOWER SHOP 466 - 24th Street Flowers for all occasions QUALITY FABRIC CENTER 2477 WASHINGTON BLVD.

In fact it couldn't help but slop as the way was blocked by an obstacle clothed in a sheer film of silk. She was a lovely thing with golden locks that flowed halfway down her back like melted oleomargarine, a shame it didn't grow on her head. She took me by my hot little hand and led the way to a table, where we sipped sas-parilla and whispered sweet nothings while I quietly contemplated the ethical relations of Freud and Jung. Unusual Prelude But this reverie was broken by the screaming prelude to the main attraction of the ffoor show, which was very deshabilee. The act was the greatest but it distracted my attention from the obstacle, so in my most chivalrous manner I invited her outside to gaze at the moon. Just as we got outside and I turned to take her in my specimen sack, I felt someone shake me and the voices were saying, "What an odd ball, sneaking in the chem. lab. and mixing up that nitrous oxide. He's sure out cold, what and odd ball." ' Naturally I went back but someone had replaced the sliding panel with a broken window all of which nroves that a good martini on the rocks is pretty hard to find any more.

To Your Anything Goes Sig Pont I am observing that for such an anti-communist nation, we Americans sure have a "rushin' " Christmas. Picture the American public basking leisurely in the sun of an 80-degree late summer day. Suddenly over their crystal sets come these words of warning, "Only 125 more shopping days till Christmas." Right then the rush begins. Fathers, who, as a result of the propaganda firmly entrenched in the minds of their offspring, must get the Christmas spirit, are rushing like crazy to the finance companies. Bank Kobbers Bank robbers, too, get the feeling and rush to the banks to "borrow" the cash to meet their bills. Children rush to Santa Claus with a thousand requests for toys, all of which Santa promises dutifully to fulfill. Parents rush away from him with their kiddies, explaining painfully that Santa cannot afford to give them all these gifts. The mailman rushes all day delivering tons of Christmas cards until he feels like a pack horse. He then rushes home to relax by taking a walk around the block. Bargain Days Shopkeepers are rushing to the stores of their competitors so they can have better bargains. What is listed by their competitor as $5.00 merchandise, they rush back to their own store and mark down to $4.98. Teachers are rushing to have terrible tests mimeographed as a fitting symbol of their love for students at the Yuletide. Yes, in all this rush, it's amazing that Americans are able to squeeze in a Thanksgiving Day without being tabooed by the Com mercial Christmas fans. It is a source of wonderment to me that in all the rushing accom At CAMERALAMD . . .

Eccles 2S0Q Washington Blvd. Nearest Store panying the holiday season, some people really do take time to think of the real meaning of Christmas. Sure enough, Santa Claus, gifts, and rushing are a part of Christmas, but just for kicks what do you say we take five minutes out of every day until Christmas to think about its true meaning. If we make our Christmas too rushin', if we decorate our houses and leave our hearts bare, Christmas will lose its significance and may become in fact, a real Russian Christmas.
