Many Duluth people we'll re-
member Prof. George L. Tyler
who went to Spokane, Washing
ton, some years ago. Prof. Tyler
taught voice culture and music
in Duluth. In his earlier days he
was prominent as an opera singer.
He had seen much Of the world
and was a man most fastidior.s in
dress, manner, tastes and as
socrates.
But, now and then, the artistic
would take a hard fall from
the waterwagon. Whenever that
Happened, all fastidiousness
would disappear. With John
Barleycorn, he would seek the
lowest groggery and make the
worst buns his boon companions.
He was fine exemplification Of
going from one extreme to the
other.
On one occasion, Prof. Tyler
was discovered in the Ideal beer
hall. He was badly disarranged

at the bar, surrounded by a lot OF
ragged, drunken boozers, with a
glass of squirrel whiskey in his
hand. He would raise the glass
on high, look through it and
then set it down on the bar, after
which he would scowl heavily
and, apparently, brood deeply.

for the last time, he set down the
glass, struck the bar a resound-
ing blow with his fist and loudly
explained in a most theatrical
manner:
"Gentlemen-it's a protest.
against the monotony-of exist
ence!"

ness in the district court almost

mark. He certainly wears the
belt for being the spryest and
youngest man for his years up
there.
