FRESHMAN WOMEN LEARN IOWA SONGS

Girls Are Now Sure To Have Patience at Close of "Frosh" Lectures

   Freshman girls are learning to sing Iowa songs.
   The ill-fated professor who is chosen to talk to the freshmen girls on a Thursday afternoon will no longer bring his theme to a close amidst the rattle of folding papers, the hum of impatient whispers, and the confusion of girls picking up their books, putting on coats and powdering their noses.
   The idea of a "sing' is spreading, and during the last 15 minutes of freshmen lectures the girls can be heard lustily singing "Old Gold" "university Iowa," and different patriotic songs. They sing them from memory too, so that at future convocations we may be assured of at least one group of singers who are not hampered by watching the words.
   Next Thursday Jane Roberts of the University library, will tell the freshmen girls how to find their reference books, and some interesting things about the library.

WHAT HAPPENS TO AN INFLUVALID

(By One Who Knows.)
   Scene, Currier Hall Hospital. Time Every Day.
   6 A. M. Orderly--Let's feel your pulse. Here, stick this thermometer under your tongue.
   7 A. M. Orderly--Now, open your mouth up wide. Say "Ah." Now, if you wrinkle your nose this spray will go into your eyes instead.
9 A. M. Chorus of patients--Breakfast! Breakfast. Breakfast.
   9 A. M. First Convalescent--I am going [home?] just the minute that I get out of here.
   Second Convalescent--So am I, but my dear, I just dread meeting anybody. They will either say they think I look terrible bad, or else that I don't look as if I had ever been sick, and I don't know which would be worst.
   Third Convalescent--I feel that way, too, but just think, now we can always say we have had the Spanish influenza.
   First Convalescent--Well, that is something.
   12 M. Chorus of Patients--Soupy-soup- soup
   Orderly--Now, is there anything more you girls want to eat?
   Chorus. Everything!
   2 P. M. A Patient--Here comes the temperature man!
   Orderly--Here, put this thermometer under your tongue.
   Nurse--Now, you boys can take the spray around to all of the girls.

PLANS ARE INDEFINITE
   There will be no meeting of the Cosmopolitan club until the kuarantine is over, according to Mildred Taylor, president of the club. The first meeting will be held the week following the closing of the quarantine.
   It is not known yet how many members there will be this year, as most of the old members are gone, and the names of the foreign students are not yet obtainable from the registrar's office.

   George F. O'Brien, formerly of the liberal arts college and now a prominent business man in Iowa City has finished a course in cartooning in the Landon Art school of Cleveland, Ohio. The students of the University, as well as the townspeople, have long admired the clever, up-to-date drawings which he posts weekly in the window of his jewelry store on East Washington street.
