Seifarth FREDERICK SCHUSSLER--Technical Schussie, Fritz, Sad, Fred Sunny Schussler, formerly a care-free la.d with rosy cheeks, has changed into Sad Schussler, the young man with many sorrows expressed on his once beaming face and with a soul which sunshine may never again illmninate. His golden locks have alone re- mained nnaffected. An inquiry to determine the cause of this transforniation would re- veal that Fred has been most cruelly scorned at Gundry's dancing class. But his fierce fighting spirit admits no defeatg he continues to study dancing. Schussie has confided to friends that soon his dashing and noble iigure will stride across the dance floor in triumph, creating admiration in the hearts of every damsel present. However, Fred does not deign to honor them with his glance and only mingles with the faithful ones. Schussie will surely return to his old self, for he intends learning carpentry. VVhile they are engaged in outdoor work, he will become sun-kissedg his clouded brow will pass away. Behold, Frederick Schussler, master carpenter, social celebrity, famed the world over for his smiling face. JOHN H.
