-' ft 'T THE FACULTY Next to the Senior Class, Athletics, and the Humor section, we consider the Faculty the most im- portant, so we put 'em first. CKindly refrain from K il T untimely mirth. That wasn't a jokej A Confidentially speaking, we have a premonition 0, 5. that someone is going to read this perfectly good and YQ! I ,Rig laboriously written article and then go and dig up ,gli some old Gothic published in the seventies and with giiiii A 'g a wild whoop pronounce the terrible verdict I knew W' ' it. A straight case of copying. Now kind, gentle, P5 dear, and so forth, reader, remember the wise words of the famous street car conductor back in the Stone Age, who, when talking to his son, the street-cleaner, was overheard to remark, My boy. there's nothing new under the sun, or something equally original. Moral-well, now do we have to tell you that, too? Which leads us to conclude that we started out to discuss the Faculty. Vlforthy motive, However, everything that could possibly be said about the Faculty has been said long ago and we hate to repeat. The worst, that is the best, that can be said, is that they keep the rest of the class quiet so we can sleep and sometimes they amuse us, donchaknow, rawthaw clevah at times, donchaknow,-oh, deah. Algernon, isn't life a bally nuisance? Anyhow, the Faculty's all right. They've actually tolerated us for four Cmaybe morej long years, and sometimes even listened to our wild schemes without laughing. AND if the finished product isn't anything to write home about, remember they did their best: no man could do more. fAt this dramatic and sentimental moment the copy editor's familiar blue pencil descended and cut out the remaining five pages of fluff. We thank you.j Pagr Seventeen
