The Big House.

Advice.

Keep to the straight and narrow,
And never dare to stray,
Live the quiet life, lad.
Don't try to do it gay.
Be a real "blue nose,"
Give all strong drink the plain,
Don't meet pretty ladies
Two weeks from your exam.

Outdante-Ing Dante.

Perhaps we can blame that home brew craze. At the Football and Haeremai Club Smoke Concert, owing to good oiling, things went as smooth as smooth can be. That is, until the function was over. Then, to the horror of the committee, it was found that as well as several glasses and goblets, a keg (empty, of course) was missing. Now, a keg is a fairly large object to make away with, but some one had done it. However, the committee's sleuths got on the trail, and the errant keg was retrieved.—still empty.
