  Sketches and Satires on The Follies of The Day 
  
  by Stephen Leacock 
  
  Preface 
  
  Many years ago when I was a boy at school, we had over our class an ancient and spectacled schoolmaster who was as kind at heart as he was ferocious in appearance, and whose memory has suggested to me the title of this book. 
  It was his practice, on any outburst of gaiety in the class-room, to chase us to our seats with a bamboo cane and to shout at us in defiance: 
  _Now, then, any further foolishness?_
