Well, everybody, Christmas! Owing to the depression, ye Viatoriana has decided to fo llow the lead of the gov­ernment, of business, and private individuals and re­t rench this year. Hence you get no "Merry" with your "Christmas" this time. Come around next year and we'll see what we can do about it. But for right now, we can wish you that unwell-known "pocket full of money," and assure you that we are hoping for, and using every influ­ence to bring about "Beer by Christmas."

But let's get down to work-may we remind you again that this is a joke column.

The department main­tains that here are no jokes-that humor arises only in ·~onnection with situations, and who can create a nice, hu­morous situation in such little space? Yeah, I know it's rrot little to you. But ye editor demands an effort, so against our better judgment, we submit anything that might follow.
