The Coop and Adams House

We were prowling around the Harvard Cooperative Society the other day, the place where the Harvard students buy their books. One case was not aside for "Books by Members of the Harvard Faculty." At one end of the shelf were a couple of volumes by Dr. A. Lawrence Lowell; a little farther over was a book by Professor Felix Frankfurter. And in between was a beautifully bound, seven-volume edition of the works of Geoffrey Chaucer.

Theodore Dreiser is a bluff, sort of a spade-a-spade fellow. He was dining out at one of the Harvard houses the other evening where it happened that the head tutor was a former Rhodes scholar, and of course you know what that means. In case you don't, it means that he affects a small, rather amusing moustache. The head tutor was about to break bread with Dreiser as a fellow literary man; warming up to him, a little, if a head tutor could he so described, Said Mr. Dreiser, firmly and loudly: "Say, that's quite a moustache you've got there -- you ought to be in Hollywood." The students all thought Dreiser was quite a guy. --The Bystander.
