fre the Glnrtain Elifta The ,Purple l'atcher, animated with the spirit and activity of the class of nineteen hun. dred and eleven, is just starting out for her fifth promenade along the boulevard of time. She pretends, at least, to be smart and is presumptious enough to set a fashion in coats. The wise folks hint-but keep this quiet-that her dress is an old dress made over. with a few new and bright trimmings taking the place of frayed and faded ones. 'l'his, alas, is true, but necessarily so, for the same material is always a la mode in l'atcher circles. You will, therefore, see here the reflected-yet far dimmer splendor-of a former creation. Wfe pray, however, that the former editors and classes will not take our little liberties ill: in our wildest moments we dared not hope to equal their brilliant efforts. Indeed, the l'atchers of the yesteryears have been true friends in our hour of need and we are most grate- ful for the aid which they gave us. The slight changes which are herein seen are due to the restless desire of all for the unusual, to the monotony of entirely the same periodic perform- ance, no matter how artistic, and to our own wilful tastes. Now, for the benefit of the morrow's Patcher I-loards and of future l'atchers, we would be most earnest in our advice to break down that ugly Gibraltar in the path of progress, the reading of his write-up before publication to every self-imagined unfortunate in the class and the consequent rewriting and revising in a vain and impossible attempt to photograph a man as he sees himself. The editors themselves will always properly focus the cameras on their mates, and at any rate a scrupulous and a pretty wise moderator will always be at their shoulders to see that they do so.
