"Pretty Soft,"
SighsOld Graad
An Ann Arbor business man stood
by the counter in The Wolverine office
and jingled coins in his pocket im-
patiently while he waited for the ad-
vertising staff to reliete him of it.
Burnett sat in his sanctum, coaxing
editorials from a more or less unwill-
ing typewriter, the while he cried
short space and threatened to omit
the classics of a busy squad of re-
porters. A sad faced alumnus weaved
his way through the thousand islands
of the office publications, and sat him-
self down, mumbling something to
himself.
"What is it?" asked a brisk young
member of the staff.
"Pretty soft, pretty soft," said the

Dispatch from his pocket, and thrust
his index finger through a two-column
portrait.

reminiscently; and since the remark
meant nothing at all,- the reporter
nodded his head and let it go at that.
The Alumnus was disappointed.

"Dana? Oh, yes. He went to Ash-

and did editorial work on the Dis-
