I Stood on the Bridge at Midnight
(As a Modern Free Verse Artist
Would Write It)
I am standing on the bridge at mid-
, night.
Daintily I munch on a large Bermuda
onion.
The moon is like a frosted cabbage in
the sky.
The stars dance like a housemaid
scaling fish.,
I am standing on the bridge at mid-
night.
I sit down.
My soul is sadder than an ear trum-
pet in a boiler factory.
I am shedding tears.
They drop like buck shot into the thin
lipped, white fanged torrent.
I shed more tears..
The bridge flattens like a pack of
cards.
The stream sucks it flown like a
vacuum cleaner taking unto its
bosom a necktie.
My heart jumps like a hooked trout.
Woe is me.
I have left my Life Savers at home.

UNIVERSITY ENGLISH
There seems to be two kinds of Eng-
glish on the campus. There is the
kind used in the classroom, in essays
and theses and discussions; and then
there is the kind used outside in
every-day talk and conversation.
When a university man writes a
paper, it is a presupposition that his
English will leave nothing to be de-
sired. He is supposed to be familiar
With good usage, style, and grammar.
in any discussions that may arise in
class, his language should be fault-
less. This is mostly the rule though
of course there are exceptions.
But when the same student gets out-
side the classroom, this' style of lan-
guage seems to leave him like a cloak.
He talks the vernacular lpetter than'
those born to it. His speech abounds
in slang expressions, which he would
=scorn 'to .use in his University work,
b rt whichuhe evidently takes great
pride in using to his fellow-students.
A university student is supposed to
be somewhat of a scholar. The lan-
guage of the classroom should be his
every-day language. He should be
above using any other. In fact, he
should be ashamed to.
Another reason for not having two
languages is that it cheapens the un-
iversity whence the student comes.
We hear much these days of advertis-
ing the university, in order to bring
more students to college. He would
be a poor advertiser ofMichigan who
could not use good English in which
to tell of his Alma Mater.
If te vernacular is your style on
the street, why not use it i the Uni-
versity? If you use the best English
in the classroom, don't be afraid to use
it on the street.
A criticiser of the administration
caustically remarks that a true states-
man these days must be free from any
form of seasickness. Has he, forgot-
ten that Columbia is the gem of the
:cean?
The kaiser sill has hosts of friends
at home, according to a German news-
paper. And they are mightly careful
o stayat home, too, and not talk
much about it.
A 15 year old cabin boy saved his
entire earnings since last July. We'd
like to hear his opinion of the high
cost of living.
A millionaire hobo is held as a de-
serter from the navy. This is one
ase where his money won't do him
nuch good.

tion.
