But Alec rode to a mean fall today
As a side order on top Of the rest
of his days work, Alec was to tell
the world about the Hoentgen Ray
Society convention in the Hotel Wash

So he picked up a program Of the
Roentgen conclave without even fig
uring out how to pronounce the rays
first name. t.tF.I ~ 4
At the office he fiicked open the
leaflet and hunted for the feature

Alec was stumped. He didn't know
what It was all about. But Alec never
gave UP.
He thumbed and rethumbed the
program until he found three items
worthy Of his comprehension.
In a second he started TO write
thusly;
