Miss Aromatic Fumes, strong-arm
/ directress of the Young Ladies Acad-
emv. called her Seniors together in
mass meetin' last Sab. evenin' IN the
basement, an 'mong other things SAID
which My husky dears OF the class
Of '23, | crave word into your she'll
like caulifowers, to the viz: This
sad evenin' you all witnesst what was
purported an alleged to be a Foot
| ball Contest between them ''Rock-a-
chaws'' of the House o. Brains an
! them "Saints" what hail (or Sleet)
from St. Aloysius College in the
| Crescent burg. You saw them dear
| ''Rock-a-chaws" stick them pesky Wis
| itors inta every pore; you saw the
niftiest an speediest back-feld you've
| lamped for many moon in first
game; you globed line which was
as fulla pep an ginger as Murphy's
pup; you saw them cheer-leaders get
tired countin' back an forth when
| the count beat grandma's yeast cake
on the rise.
"Well, young ladies, we are De-
termined that the Ascent of Woman
is not YET complete: Class '23 will
now get ready for in two weeks WE
are gointa challenge them "Saints"
to do battle on the ST. Stan Grid for
better or worse, an the opinion pre-
walls in my noodle that WE ALSO
can make them eat grass. | thank
you."
Now, Prunella, our noodle is also
fulla that. same kinda stuff, an we
opine that Miss Aromatic amt far
wrong if they can induce Ill Charlie
Jaubert to get sick or somethin'; for
Charlie is the whole cheese of that
outfit.
Anyhow, Bo, it was good practice.
Say, did you notice what PEP the
End String put inta the soup? Well,
Bo, We'll say we DID, When Foster
cut the strings them hounds went inta
the scrap like they'd turned canni-
balls; we thought sure somebody'd get
ct up.
The Great Wop.
This week we celebrate the day
when Christopher Columbus first
| lamped this side of the world, some
over 400 yrs. ago.
For a whole lotta guys what amt
really wise to the happenins of that
time, we wanta hand 'enl line, to the
viz & so forth: Columbus was wop
sailor what was borned in burg
called Naples, over in the Eyetallan
country, bein' raised on Spaghetti d
eucumbers, lii Christie growed up
strong lad, & bugs about the brlny;
he believed in gettin' it all first hand
& therefore wouldn't fall for none
of.that bunk his friends slung at him
about takin' up a course in a CORES
pondence school so he goes out an
ships on a lugger what was runnin'
IN the hijackin' trade, but thai proved
20 be a bum job, an iii Chris slides
outta it & goes to night school, where
them birds was teachin' folks that the
earth was fiat as filter. Christie
leans his caulifiower & listens in till
he gets enough to last him spell &
he quits; when the supt. of public
schools quizzes him for not wantin'
to get wise, lii Chris up & remarks
to the guy that he & them other birds
is all damphules & don't know nothin'
& that he believes the world was
ROUND.
The Ku Klux come mighty near
takin' young Chris out & givein' him
coata South Carolina wash for bein'
So foxy with his elders. But they
didn't.
Soon Chris works his way up to the
Captain of a high-sided schooner boat
& he gets sand enough to tackle the
King and Queen to furnish him with
the jack to go out & discover the
world, but that foxy pair was leary
of Chris & wouldn't come across with
it. Then Cap. Chris drifts over in
the Spanish country, where he know
ed them bull-fghters would take
chance On any old thing; he gets
knockdown to Ferd & Bella what was
the then Kink & Queen of the Bull
lighters, & Bella who was SOME
SPORT, hooks her sparklers to Uncle
Joe & turnin' the mazuma over to
Chris tells him to beat it & her &
Chris & Ferd will go him $3.50 on
dIscoverin' the world.
Christie then blows himself for
