electrical engineering, Js tha most
soroly smitten of the university
men. His wife was taken to the
hospital and operated oa the very
day when he, himself, was attacked.
Both were suffering from appendi
citis, hut in Mr. John&on's case
thern were serious complications
and his condition has been critical
from the beginning.
Two days after Mr. and Mrs.
JolinBon fell ill Miss Lillian Getty,
assistant in the president's office
and an intimate friend of the late
Dean Austin, was compelled to
yield to the Burgeon and have her
appendix removed. Just before
Dean Austin was Btrickan, she and
Miss Getty jokingly compared symp
toms and agreed that they had ap
pendicitis.
Robert E. Rose, assistant profes
sor ot chemistry, had to undergo
the operation for the elimination of
the troublesome appendix early in
the month; and Director Edwin A.
Start, of the extension division, was
laid up for a time, though he did
not have to submit to the knife.
A sister of Professor Trevor Kin
caid, Miss Airdle Kincaid, former
ly a student in the university, is
also on the list of those recovering
from the disease, as is Charles
Hoss. of Central ia, who was forced
to leave the summer sesion and
nearly died. *
A coincidence Ss the fact that
George Fitch, famous humorist and
author of short Stories and "vest
pocket essay," who died following
an operation for appendicitis in
San Francisco recently, had but a
few days before -visited the univer
sity and lectured before journ
alism students.

Murray, what's the inntter you" ain't
sent us a check for them packing
boxes already r
"It's like this, Mr. Potash," Murray
explained, starting to unpack the par
cel: "I kept them packing boxes for
my honesty. You sold me them boxes
for empty packing cases, but one of
'em had some goods In the bottom of
It, and here they are."
He tore away the brown paper wrap
ping from the parcel and disclosed the
missing silk In all Its glossy perfection,
six bolts of it, and fifty yards in each
bolt
"Now, what d'ye think of that. Maw
rusa?" Abe gasped at last
"Think!" Morris cried. "Think! 1
think you'd better tell Miss Cohen to
charge you up with a cab ride for Bar
ney's brother, $00 for the fine and the
ball, $25 for Aaron Rlfkln and $0 for
them packing cases what Murray here
keeps for his honesty."
He handed Murray a couple of cigars.
"When a man's a sucker, Abe," he
concluded, "he's got to pay for it him
self!"
