History of the Class of IQZI lThe following clipping is taken from the Kumbulu Daily News of Sept. 28, ZSQU, A. D. lt is the report of a lecture given by Prof. Xezah Cetewaho, Head of the Department of Ancient History of the Kumbulu University. He has just returned from a voyage of exploration to the new island in the Great Seal As you know, this new island was brought to light ten years ago, when a tremendous convulsion forced the land to the surface. After exploration l found that this island formed a part of what was once a wonderful continent by the name of US, more grammatically speaking, it should have been called WE. We lighted upon a spot that seems to have been the literary center of this ancient land of US, and here we unearthed the remains of a college by the name of Wilson . From a few records found in another part of the island, then called 'Cleansingvillem Cor possibly Washingtonj, we discovered that the ruler of the country was Wilson l, and we infer that this college was a royal institution for the elite of the land. The park around the College of Wilson was called Pensf1eld , and sometimes Pencilvania . You students will hardly believe that these bright girls had to use what they called pens and pencils to inscribe their thoughts on paper. They knew nothing of thought-transference, which is our own contribution to civilization. What hard-working, diligent students they must have been! Another very interesting custom l discovered, was that of a midwinter festival which lasted three days, From all parts of the land of US, men came to this college to attend what was called by them a Prom , a form of amusement very much in vogue at that stage of history.. The original idea was evidently borrowed from our own country when in its savage state, for they made peculiar motions with their feet to the beat of a drum, and they filled the hall with green boughs to give local color and background. I . Then after this had passed, the men dispersed, yet again they had a day ofjollity, in which they appar- ently celebrated the customs of a generation more antiquated than their own. The men and women wore white hair, and it is significant that the scene was of a very ancient age, for the photograph shows the women in deep obeisance to the gentlemen. Page 7Tll'l'V'llYjfl,I'L'
