We were glad to see The Can I Find an Apt.? that Cay Goudy returned safely from Chicago. Been losing any more railroad tickets in trash baskets, Cay? Where were all the first floor girls going in their pajamas the other night? Rum'ors were lat they spent the night in Liberty Park. The second and third floor girls noticed a decrease in noise that night. It seems that there is a tennis court on third floor now. Its hours are from 11 p. m. to 1 a. m. After dinner coffee on Wednesday nights is still continuing to be a success. We owe a vote of thanks to the Committees who function each week. It has been rumored that the Chemistry professor and Einstein got beat in a pinochle game last week de- spite their mathematical abili- ties. Nice going, Miss Deardorff and Jimmie. We are told that Virginia Kla-pak- is is back at the dorm after spending Easter vacation with her husband. Why the woe gone expression, Jeanie? Has that good looking dentist finished working on your teeth? Another engagement ring has been acquired by a Ferry Hall girl. Congratulations, Arlene. By the way, Jim, came with a goatee, but it was noticed that he shaved before leaving. Naturally Spring Fever has hit the dormitories. Tennis, softball, and catch seem to be the style. Are the strolling after dinner another indication of Spring Fever? If so, it certainly has hit e hard. conceited young preacher had just indulged in a tirade against college and other higher institutions of learning. He concluded by saying that he was thankful he had never been corrupted by contact with such institutions. Whereupon the bishop asked him if he meant to say he was thankful for his ignorance. Well, yes, said the young man, you may put it that way if you like. My observation is, said the bishop, you have much to be thankful for. A The cost of living in Foster Hall is approximately $240 is for per semester. The various charges such as staying on campus during vacation, house dues, laundry, etc. This entitles you to a private (ha) room, one clean sheet and two clean towels (ha) per week, a warm (ha) rdom, and three square meals per day (bah). There are four and one-ha- lf months, or 3240 hours in a seth mester, we spend about of this time, or about 810 hours of this time in the building. So, we figure it costs us thirty cents per hour to live in the dorm. With the local pay rates at fifty cents per hour, you 'an work as many hours as you sleep, and have enough money to pay your bill, get nine hair cuts, squander $50 on clothes, and leave yourself $103 to cover the dost of Chapel cuts, free afternoons, and evenings not spent at Ferry Hall. In spite of the luxurious liv-?- g described above, the boys in the dorm are constantly complaining. They say that the dorm isnt warm enough in the winter, and that there is no hot water never. These two statements are obviously falsehoods. One has merely to look at the large (ha), modern (ha), heat plant (ha, ha) at the south end of the campus to realize that the school is adequately equipped to cope with any weather Utah has to offer. The reason that you rarely hear the occupants of Ferry Hall voice this complaint is due to the fact that the building is much hotter. This is because it is nearer the heat plant no doubt. In spite of the foregoing satire we really lead a fairly decent life in the old barn. What with self government, blivits, and frequent absences of the Coach (may the good Lord have mercy on Mrs. As Soul I am afraid shell be meeting him soon), we manage, to exist, pass, and remain reasonably happy.
