TvIIE teachers claim that Mr..
See doesn't know anything
about education. but they're
wrong. He has been manufactur-
ing elevators all his life and what
could be more uplifting?
THEY also claim that he isn't
familiar with girls colleges.
He's sorry to say that he isn't.
His parents were very thought
lsss and sent him to a school for
boys.
THEY asked him to donate
something to the girls college
and 1t wasn't his fault that he
didn't have a couple Of girls to
give them.
RUT he made a mistake in say
ing that girls ought not to
smoke cigarettes. What else are
cigarettes good for?
A ND he shouldn't have said that
half the girls use paint with

He may have gotten some pow
der on his coat off ono of
