The writer of the following p« m says "For wishes of my own 1 wish to withhold my name." SPRING TWILIGHT A rosy cloud over mountain blue— Purple mists in the valleys deep— A violet shy all wet with dew By whisp'ring wind is lulled to sleep. The rippling trill of a robin's note Comes rollicking by on a gentle breeze. The whistle clear from a cardinal's throat Drifts down like silver through the The "Knee-deeps" pipe their ircloss 'Kncc-iliep knee-deep, knee-deep"— And warm spring rain is coming soon- "Kmc-deop, knee-deep, knee-deep." A restless yearning stirs my soul— The gypsy strain is in my blood— Away, away! to the open road! Down through the dusk—to the night. A star comes out in the deepening A soothing thought comes down to me: "Why be restless?—God is nigh; The world is mine, and my soul is free." —ANONYMOUS TO A CRICKET By Alden Cook.

MOSS Cullowhee, N. C. OVERHEARD (I TAIM'A KK) B; A. Id, Monday. Tom: Come on. you birds; Arise and shine! Its time for breakfast. Dick: What's the use of going to breakfast? All we can get will be ■ bite of cold eggs, or a thin slice of bacon and a cup of cold cold weak cotfee. Harry: You mean maybe you'll get that much. The weariness may carry the chow away before you get even that much. Dick: That is a pain; and there's another thing that is a bother; that's always interrupting the meal to pass the dishes down'to the wait) suppose they are too feeble to gat around the table and get them. Harry: Oh! I don't mind that 10 much as I do the .poorness of the food. We are paying |14.00 a month for board, and 1 know we should have better food than we are getting at that price. Then tbe-e breakfasts and Sunday night suppers are ■ (lis grace tO any respectable institution Have you ever noticed the enormous amount of food that is carried from at lunch? It is said that all that left over food is fed to the bog- for fattening purpOOM. As far 1 am personally concerned, I'd much rather someone would try to put a little tat on my bones; 1 hate to try to stuay when one bones irritate the skin. You know, left over food can be recooked and very edible dishes made if the COOka know their business. w hai ■ the matter with using the left over beans for the purpose of making soup; the spuds for making salad; the meat for Mulligan Siew; and excess bread heels and toast for making pudding. The dining room expense is tne biggest item ol the institutional expenditures, and a small amount of waste each day soon runs into big figures. If the food that is thrown to the Hogs was utilized it would supply about two-thirds of the food needed for the evening meal, and that saving couid be applied on the breakfast, or that saving could Be laid up for a rainy d-y. . Then had you ever noticed the amount of breiul and butter that is carried from the dining room at each meal'.' 12 loaves of bread and 6 pounds of bu.ter would not be too nigh an estimate of the quantity earned out each day by -tudents. No wonder that our feeding expenses run so high. Tom; It seems to me that Dr. Hunter would' do something about such conditions if they exist. wick: T^je trouble is that Dr. Hunter doesn't know about it. Every time he comes into the dining room a -special table is laid for him and he prob- aoiy has little idea of the students point of view. If he knew how unsavory cold eggs are for breakfast, or how hard it is to study on a thin slice of bacon and a weak cup of coffee, or if he could see the look of longing in the eyes of some hungry student as the food is being carried away he might investigate the matter and do something about it. But matters are slicked when he comes around. What we need here is a double check system ; a system in which no one person has complete control of a set of finances. Take a look at the old logging camp dining room; there the chief cook is directly res|x>:isible to his patrons, and the patrons lay their complaints at the door of the camp ■■, K''ts results. If you should try such a thing you'd probably get thrown out of the dining hall for your Harry: %»■•!/' Wa go doT»n anil get what wr «ni» ?om; you fro down town at 9:09 •rxi **l s"„me sarulwicrres.

It seems to me that a group of col- lego men and women could find something more wholesome than that to talk about and something more conducive to growth and culture. An intellect that makes those topics the basis of the major part of the discourse is surely as stagnant and filthy as u sewer, and certainly there is little opportunity for refinement.
