WEARS A SNAKE AS A BOA

A Student Scares His Class Mates With It

A FOUR FOOT SNAKE

Curls Around Dan Osborne's Neck and Sleeps With Its Head in His Pocket

Dan Osborne, of the Alpha Delta Phi fraternity, has purchased a novel feather boa, and is wearing the reptile to classes under his coat. The novel piece of neckwear is a live snake, four feet long, which he purchased from a circus, it is said. The reptile is black and white and is tame on all occasions, except when his scales are rubbed the wrong way. Whether Osborne is a snake charmer or the fangs of the creature have been removed is not known, but at any rate the pet is as tame as a poodle dog and never gives his master any trouble. The snake accompanies Osborne to classes and seems to be aware of the fact that girls are afraid of him. When tired, as is a common occurrence, he curls himself up and sticks his head in one of Osborne's pockets until he is disturbed.
