clarity. to Railroad Jack. It might
be added that if they have a sense of
humor, the job will not be work for
them, but merely one laugh after an-j
other.
They must know that when a per-
son asks for Tennyson's "In a Gar-
den," he means "Enoch Arden," and
when one requests a poem entitled 1
"Fanny Thompson," it is just another
way of saying "Thanatopsis." Those!
who have worked for a time get quite
waggish and rather apt at repartee,
as the records will testify. A perusal
of the main desk joke book shows how
astoundingly blissful most of the cam-
pus must be.
Students are constantly coming to
the desk without a call slip and at-
tempting to get books. One serious-
faced "Phi Bete" aspirant walked up
to the desk and asked "Have you 'My
