Appropriate.

There was a great discussion in
progress among the members of the
faculty of a certain college. They
wrangled long and raised their
voices to too high a pitch, each
eager to have the measure in ques-
ton embody his particular varia-
ton of the idea. Finally a pro-
fessor of large mind and calm voice,
who had been silent, rose and made
a tactful, conciliatory speech. AS
the effect of his words began to
show in the peaceful quiet that set
tied over the fdgeting members,
another professor, who also took
things calmly, turned to his neigh
Dor and whispered the line from
Kipling:
The oil can soothes the worrying cranks
When the speaker had finished
the more aggressive members took
up the discussion again. Presently
the professor who had Kipling in
mind leaned over once more and
quoted the line from "McAndrew S
Hymn"
And now the main eccentrlcs start theh
quarrel.
