BY E. S. HITCHCOCK

Most OF us have been fairly well
satisfied with ourselves while reading
Shakespeare. not only that We were
reading him at all, but that we
thought We knew what we were read

We can prove II by Charles ID. Stew

considered worthy OF the Yale Uni.

and the only logical conclusion Is
that we have been living in state OF
deception as 10 our own erudition and

knew nothing OF the convolutions OF

placed ON the cider press and the
mill set ON hre.
Ham Mix sat down in the front
row, hoping Pansy wouldn't arrive
In time for the rescue. but he was,
OF course, disappointed
Pansy yanked Bert out OF the
cider press and carried him to
safety out of the burning build

The audience went into frenzy
and the result was that Bert and
Pansy got curtain call, and as
forward and handed her, tied with
long, beautiful red, velvet rib

There was no time 10 be lost and

whether she intended to walk
