i rwiiihhhmmw , 6911251 nf Ihr Sviluvr Svhrepakin JANUARY 27, 1919-Average Student, as directed, enters the Land of Education to seek for the Silver Sheepskin. FEBRUARY 10, 1919 - Average Student meets other travelers on the road, who are: Bluffer, Shark, Sleepy, Boot-licker, Loafer, Sneak, and Conscientious. FEBRUARY, 1919-JANUARY, 1922-Adventures on the Road: Slough of Grammar-The road on which they are to travel in the Land of Education is a very rocky one, and meets with general disfavor, but there is no other way. After a short time, the road comes to an abrupt end, and a wide slough stretches across their line of travel. Average Student leads the way, and the rest plunge in after him. After a weary struggling time, they find themselves on firm ground again. Loafer and Bluffer are tempo- rarily left behind. Forest of History--The path leads into a dense tangle of underbrush and fallen date trees. All lose their way for a time. Movieland - A fair city looms ahead. All except Conscientious are enticed into a large stone mansion in Movie Town by a beautiful enchantress. Food and drink are placed before them. All trace of time is lost, until the effects of the drug wear off. They find it hard to travel after their merriment, and Conscientious goes on ahead of them. Latin Desert- Upon Sneak's advice, Bluffer,'Sleepy, Loafei and Average Student, hire five ponies to carry themselves across the sands. They catch up with Conscientious, but when their ponies run away after they dismount, they find they can hardly move their legs. Conscientious, however, finds it easy to travel the rest of the way across the desert after his hard exercise at the beginning. Hill of Geometry - There is no path around this hill, and there are no ponies to be hired, so the entire band must try to climb. Average Student almost reaches the top, when he stumbles over a stone, and falls all the way down. Boot-licker and Shark find the stone too small to trouble them. Domain of Ogres - The party is pursued and has a desperate time to prevent being punished by the giants. There are several branches of the road farther on, and the travelers are threatened with dire disaster if they do not continue on the right one. The giants happen to be divided into two factions, lead by Formalism and Fancy. At the branching of the road, Boot-licker, in trying Page Twenty-Nine
