"I believe in getting at th3 bottom

For months this hop has been the
main topic of conversation. At last
the big celebration has come. Fair
damsels have carefully packed the ut-
most creation of the modistes' brains,
and left envious hamlets in all parts
of the country to come to Ann Arbor
for a plunge into the orgy of music,
abandon of dance and riot of color
which we please to call the J-Hop.
A transformation has been worked on
their escorts. The plain every-day
student with the baggy trousers and
two days beard has become immacu-
late in the best "soup and fish" that
could be bought, borrowed or rented.
So the merry couples resplendent in
their combined glory have joined in
the night's whirl. There is not a dis-
cordant note to jar the atmosphere.
