As I entered the door, I was knocked on the floor, By the usual thundering herd, for the 'bell had not rung, And I lay there unstrung, Yainly trying to thlnk of a word, That would flt thls confusion, Then I drew one conclusion, That the school was Just a Mm But there were the students, The tea.ehcr's wlth pruden c, Fixing question L L llke barragu.

BELIEVE IT OR NOT by Betty Shattuck You may not believe the things whlch I shall tell, but it is my smncere belief that you vdll use your very good judgement to determine the authenticity of these stor1es About e month ago I went to a magnmficont ball g1ven only for the elite Johann Strauss, with his rhythmic waltz orchestra, kept the guests in a contlnuous reel of dances The shock of the even1ng came when there entered through the massive doorway, none other than Napoleon Bonaparte Though I had read about him, I never reallzed how extremely amusing he looked M hu orous side was tickled and I laughed so hard that tears ran down my cheeks. Then I realized the absolute stillness and hush which had come over the room Hundreds of eyes were glaring at me, but only one pair do I remember, the penetrating eyes of Napoleon Bonaparte, who unwaveringly marched towards me and begged m permission for a dance The muslc began K at his slgnal D and he swept me off my feet Later in the evening refreshments were served, and as he handed me a glass of punch, I carelessly spilled it upon his trousers Out of courtesy he apologized for h1s ClumB1n6SS The cllmal came hen, on escortlng me to h1s limou ine, he trlpped and fell upon the pavement, and was rendered unconsc1ous Immediately, Helena Island, and that self same moment, the Vactoria Cross was hung about my neck for capturlng the long sought emperor Only a week ago, when I vas stro1l1n through the Zoo, a lion and many other animals were carelessly released from their cages The lion darted after me and the faster I ran, the more determined became the gleam in h1s eye At last I dropped to the ground exhausted To my im edlate SHIPTISG, a monkey, swinging from a tree above me, wrapned h1s tail about my body, and swung me to safety hlgh in the trees The animals were at last recaptured and such rel1ef I have never before experlenced I wouldn't have believed lt if I hadn't seen it with nv own eyes! Gan you imaglne a glgantic luxury liner floating down Hollywood Boulevard? Well, it happened! Yesterday, while I was walking along the street, it came flO8t1Dg towards me, with hundreds of passengers on its decks I could see the swimming pool fxlled with people and the dining halls swarming with hungry occupants I wished that I too, might be on this boat, for events like this happen but once in a lifetime Today, Kand I must tell you about tlusl, the most amazing th1ng happened I was standing with a few students on the porch I won't mention any names because you might disbelieve me, An way, we were imitating airplanes, foolishly, and my magnlficent frlend was so engrossed in what she was doing that, Lot and behold, she began to fly all around the school.
