1924 Cedrus Yearbook

The CEDRUS 1924 lin p Husher (in chemistry lab): "Now what do we do with this solution?" Wood: "I think the next step is to add dilute H20." Overheard after Spanish: Walk Taylor, after the quizz: "Larry how near were you to the right translation?" Larry, thoughtfully: "Oh, about two seats away" We really hate to publish this hut it has been rumored that when Prof. Talcott was a mere child and held the honored position of organist in a small church, the organ was pumped by an obstreperous old sexton who would often stop when he thought the Voluntary had lasted long enough,. One Sunday when the young prodigy was particularly anxious to make a good impression on a visit- ing clergyman he wrote a note and handed it to the sexton. Instead of reading it himself and in spite of little John's gesticulations the sexton carried it directly to the preacher. Imagine that gentleman's astonishment when he read, "Please oblige me this morning by blowing away until I give you the signal to stop." Signed J. A. T. Bobby Kalp: "Doctor, will you please give me something for my head?" Doctor: "I wouldn't take it for a gift." Dick Cooper: "Doesn't Mrs. Oglesbee stay in the parlor any more when the girls have callers?" Ruth: "No, we're trying out the honor system here now." Miss Somers (after the formal dinner was over): "Something very amusing happened at the table I was at. There wasn't enough napkins to go around." Apt Learner: (name given on request):"Why I thought napkins were to be 'left half folded and did not have to go around." Stude: "Did you yell at me down town, sir?" Prof. "No." Stude: "Some bum did." . . ze 4fQ;e4A.'1" I coo, •7.7>4 11,7/0 r11,0 Arr • • XI 7e - Seventy-eight
