EVERY EVENING
Now exam week is approaching
At a very rapid rate,
So I think I ought to study
And not have another date.
But the dance is so attractive
That I ought to go once more;
And the Huron sure is pretty
From the wooded western shore,
And the room's too hot for working,
And the stars are shining bright-
Oh, gee whiz, boys, what's the differ-
ence
If I go out just tonight?
A COOL ONE FROM A NICE BERGER
"What is the funniest bone in the
body, .Mr. Berger?"
"The humerus, professor."
USE EASTERN ACCENT
I know a good joke on a prof.
I know it would raise a big laugh.
But if I give it away,
I know, too, hell say'
"Your grade, sir, will be cut in half."
NAME GIVEN ON REQUEST

troit yesterday one of them received
an invitation to return to Ann Arbor
In a Hudson with a friend. He is now
congratulating himself that he got

Who ate her ice cream with a f.
When asked why she did,
She shifted her quid,*
And answered, "That was learned in
Detroit."
*Of spearmint.
ELLIPTICALLY SPEAKING
"Do you believe in osculation?"
"Assuredly. But at times it does
not take."
"What is the best thing to do then?"
"Try another application a day
later."

"Why don't you join the cavalry,
