fi- 'Q v elf 1 0 3 -. yet arrived, and weak Ophelia was a poor substitute for defense She trled to defend him but her voice which was as weak as her character, failed to be heard above the chatter Ford tried to console her Ill give you a new Ford he said if you forget your sorrow At last Hamlet who was always procrastinating made his appearance He seemed to solve the long standing question He, of himself was apparently proof enough until Edison protested that Hamlet was the first book he read by the light of the incandescent lamp which he invented He asserted that Hamlet was no authority since he was mad Hamlet tried to explain that he merely feigned madness, and he turned to Shakespeare for assurance In his attempt to ald Hamlet, the foremost English dramatlst was hushed by a critic, who said lf he failed to make the point clear ln the seventeeth century, ll was far too late to do so now Hamlet accused Shakespeare of an injustice ln making him appear mad to his pals of the underworld He reached for his sword and proposed a duel At this point Charon arrived with guests Portia was among them She IS ln time to hear Ophelia send forth a scream At the sight of a brave woman and the scream of a weak one Hamlet cools off It IS time for the dance Care to dance? asked President Hoover of our student as the orchestra directed by Mozart played a waltz What could she do but accept She wished for Commoners and she was dancing with the First Man of the land Oddly she danced well with him until Thomp son cut in Sir how dare you take the partner of the Flrst Man of the land? said Hoover Hold on said Francis Thompson claiming the senior, I am the author of 'The Hound of Heaven Napoleon and Louis of France discussed who had been the rightful ruler of France Sir Walter Raleigh Columbus and others came over to Napoleon and Louis In the bustle that followed someone knocked over a tub of Stygian water before ueen Elizabeth who was advancing. She paused before the water. Gallantly Sir Walter seeing a lady ln distress threw his cloak down. She walked over it and offered Raleigh a grand reward. Our young friend is amazed as she watches history repeat itself. Tired physically from dancing and mentally from the flow of knowledge poured forth everywhere, she and her partner, lanky Abe Lincoln, retired to a remote corner. Abe observed Ophelia crying and went to her. He left our senior to her own whims and she wandered away from the joy- making crowd to the peaceful shores. In a far off place she saw hapless beautiful Dido weep- ing as if her heart would break. Pitying her the dreamer went to her and inquired her grievance. Reluctantly Dido explained that she was longing for a sight of Aeneas, her beloved who left her years before. Some distance away, she came upon Shylock counting his gold. As he laid down a stack, he looked suspiciously at Crmsus, the Lydian, who also summed up oodles of money. 0h! now I know why we say as rich of Crcesusw and as miserly as Shylocku, said the adventuress, as she left to rejoin the party. Arriving at the scene of festivities, she found the men enjoying a good cigar and the women chatting. She joined the latter group. Oddly enough she found them extremely human, even after their years in Elysium Fields. .lust when she was becoming acquainted, funny Charon's bell tinkled, and ere our senior had time to run, she awoke to find it was all a dream.

Subconsciously our student mingled with the throng in the midst of Thackeray Boswell Irving and numerous others of fame whom she failed to recognize. Arent you a writer? asked the congenial Irving. A writer scoffed Shakespeare, all she ever did was think about the theme for a mere essay. The girl blushed and crouched in her chair. - Did I ever finish it? she mused half aloud. Finish it! growled a man whom she recognized as Samuel Johnson as he worked him- se into a frenzy of wrath Certainly not! Come, come, give the girl a chance, said Boswell.
