Love.

Medically speaking, love is the Universal. Disease which first attacks people in their middle teens, and is attended by severe and often danger us complications, the first of which is a profound disturbance of reasoning power and vision. Unfortunately, one attack by no means confers immunity, and according to elderly sufferers the only successful treatment is marriage. As in other diseases, there are carriers of the love disease, which carriers have the power of inflicting a large number of contacts yearly. These people are said to have it. With all its disadvantages, however, love is undoubtedly the greatest driving force in the world. It can do anythin from reforming a character to starting a War.

Cupid Scores a Bull.

Louis Gets a Magpie.

"To be or not to be—

That is the question."

The day approaches when Louis and Maggie will have to make their final plunge, when they will express in public their desire to hold hands for the rest of their lives. It is sad to think that two such nice people are taking such an irretrievable step, but when one realises how far gone they are it is perhaps a good thing that from now on they will be removed to a place whence their contagion will not spread throughout the rest of the 'Varsity. Still, it must be confessed that amongst this year's freshers this affliction seems to be spreading without the aid of our two arch criminals.

A number of men—Taylor, Gawith. Powell, Greig. and others—are active members both of the Rifle Club and of the Tramping Club.

None the less, we are assured that there is no truth in the rumour that these clubs contemplate amalgamating. Still less is it true that the only hold-up is uncertainty as to which of the suggested names, Trifle Club and Ramping Club, would be the more suitable for the new combined body.

May we ask what the activities of a Trifle or Ramping Club would be ? Will they be mixed or what ?

"Mae West Gives All the Answers"

What do you think of University boys ? I think of them all ways.

Do women with pasts interest men? Always. These men hope history will repeat itself.
