The Commander in tlie Army (fiercely: Mr. President, you forget that during that time it was who commanded in the Army ! His Queen of Hearts: But you forget, dear, it was I who com- manded you ! The Commander in the Army (quite meekly) : Yes, dear, yes, of course ! Jewel: Say, girls, wasn ' t it great to take a walk with the boys on Fifth Avenue when they had to saLite those heavenly officers ! Oh, my ! Second Jester: Say, fellows, remember how hard it was for Benny Himmelfarb to salute the officer before he passed him instead of ten minutes later ? First Jester: It never was an officer, it always was a field clerk! Second President: Another way in which I benefited the Class was the most excellent work I did 0:1 the Impression, that great literary monument which shall — Third Jester: Monument, did he say? There sure were enough deadheads ! Second President: That great literary work shall stand as a monument so that future classes my learn how — The Draped Figure : Enough, enough! We are all aware of your oratorical ability. Can any man forget the blood-curdling manner in which you told of the preparation for an operation ! Yea, verily, it even caused each man to swear that he would never want to be oper- ated on. You have done very well. Pass on. The Man Who Knows: I am the man who knows. Everything is clear to me. I know the name of every curve in the brain, yea, even every curve in an uriniferous tubule ! I know all the symptoms of every poison by heart. I know all the doses of all the drugs. I know the names of all the planes on the occlusal surface of the molars. The Draped Figure: That ' s enough! The quicker you get out of college the better ! You know entirely too much ! The Man Who Knows He Knows Not: That ' s exactly what I always say, Professor. My theory is that as long as one knows one does not know one is always willing to take somebody else ' s answer in preference to one ' s own. Second Jester: In preference to one ' s own ? Then he couldn ' t mean himself ; lie never has his own ! Last President: I ' d like to say a few words to each and all about that 10 cents that each and everyone of you has to pay the college, because — Third Jester: Because the price of gasoline went up! The Chorus: The old gray mare, she ain ' t — etc. The Man Who Exhorts: Now, fellows, can ' t you keep quiet? You elected this man president, so why don ' t you give him your support? The Man Who Ran: Brothers, I ' d like to say a few words about this matter. I think this is a question which should be decided by the Student Council. Since every single fellow in this College is affected by this it — (There is a general uprising.) Jazz King: Wait a minute, fellows. Before you go, don ' t forget the Class Dance. I have only $-t0 with which to pay a bill of $120. Next week is the dance, so bring your best girl and give me your money. The Man for Money: Money, money everywhere, but not a cent to pick. Money, money everywhere, but — The Man Who Knows: Now, strictly speaking, I know from my own experience, that there isn ' t really money everywhere. Should you investigate I am quite positive you would find that the pockets of our boys are actually deficient in that necessary article of exchange called money. Hard as this is to believe, I am quite satisfied with the veracity of ray statement. First Jester: Stop swearing, Bill, we believe you, but the ques- tion is, Does the College know it ? The Draped Figure: Gentlemen, gentlemen! There is altogether too much discussion. I am now entirely convinced that you are all qualified to pass on and take your place in the ranks. My parting advice is Use your forceps and go way down to get a good grip! As the curtain goes down to slow music The Dancer siezes an imaginary partner and glides through the intricate steps of a modern waltz ! Sara Kloomak. ' 21. 22
