Although Jim's father was wealthy
he drew the line when Jim, who was
at Harvard, requested an addition of
81 900 to his annual allowance, but
the son was persevering. He wrote
father a long letter. in which he de-
scribed the attractions of the institu-
tion, and he concluded the epistle
somewhat in this fashion:
''They have added u department to
the university for the education of
dogs, and what l wish to suggest, dad,
is that you send Jack on, together
with the necessary tuition, 81 600, and
at the end of the year he will be
thoroughly versed in English, Spanish,
French and Latin
The letter had its effect and Jack,
who was the family bull pup, arrived
in due time, as did also the check
for his tuition. When Jim returned
home at the end of the year the entire
family was at the railroad depot, but
he soon found they were waiting for
Jack.
They were disappointed though, for
Jack was not there. Then Jln1's
father took his son aside.
Didn't 1 send you money enough
for Jacks tuition and expenses?" he
asked.
Jack; oh yes, Jack replied jim
Il was going to tell you about him,
dad. You see, from the moment Jack
arrived at Harvard he made a hit.

the medal in Latin, led his class IN
French and was a proficient English
scholar within two weeks. And

he turned to me.
JIM he said, our college days
are over and we must now knuckle
down to hard work, so let's have
little drink Well, we had a drink,
father; in fact, we had. several drinks,
for Jack was popular among the other
passengers in the buffet car and he
was setting up the drinks for all. But
Jack was drinking highballs, and 1
! guess he drank tco much. At any
rate, he took me to one side after
awhile.
jim he said. I don't like to men
ton this to you, but l suppose it is my
| duty to do so. Now, that old man of
yours. OF course, don't like to
knock. but you see while you were
! spending your first three years at col

the actions of your father. Now, Jim,
while you were away and while your
mother was absent from home. the old
man used to give wine to chorus girls
and there was general high jinks at

When Jack told me this, dad con
