?Daybobgers Homer 1, the Wise, King of the Daydodgers, and iiHandsomest Mani, of the realm, is a true democrat and philosopher. His subjects Hock to hear his simple precepts and his refining influence on the prime minister is noted by all. His handsomely parted hair and the picturesque droop to his shoulders win him the plaudits 0f the proletariat. His is the uniqueidistinction of being the iiuncrowned King tthe coronation ceremonies were not carried forward, due to the difficulty of procuring jewels for the crowni. Howard Demosthenes Smyth of the forty faces is a man of different calibre. As prime minister, he bears up nobly under the burden of official duties which consist mainly in talking whenever there is a chance, but it is in his role of court fool that his real abilities are brought to light. His quiet, unassuming dignity wins him the admiration and respect of all. Henrietta, Marie, Edith, and Marjorie are maids of honor and amuse the king in his idle hours. These with a host of other retainers form the court which meets daily in the cafeteria where Smyth features as toastmaster. Ebat Warmbouse Crew 5323.11 Jr 31PM: WI! bu EEHh 11 fit is 33.1.! In K3 .

An affront to the complacent face of night seems the pano- v , ,, mania and hilarity within. As an orchestra of many pieces booms out a merry time as, the two choralsters, Malarkey and Houston, sing the gentle measures of Hhinky-dinky parlez-vous.H Upon either landing, with HHell-Basketsll bouncing down the stairs, Vatnsdal, Riddle, Scott and Blew beat an uproarious tuneeSteffen chortles HMargyl, to the reverberation of a fire nozzleeand Vincent and Pearson, deaf to all bedlam, sit on the top step vociferously arguing about Perryls theory of morality and the three kinds of men. Meanwhile, it being after ten-thirty, the confused and negligee figures of Mclndoe, Piper, Pattullo and Henny are to be seen rushing hither and thither,vainly seeking a corner in which to catch a moments repose. Above all, with upraised arms and flowing robe like the ancient prophet of Baal, stands Holland, pleading for peace and threatening the wrath of im- patient Gods, but all pleadings are in vain, all supplication without end, for Gods are deaf, McGowan snored on and the Owl sang Bushwa from the sycamore tree. i't'rm , .4 :. int i y t I 5-13? t h'ltnt s't trtu i .VL w is, G ,1 l. k lrl.r5 wt;i HOUSE G M i parties, but put itself on the map this year with a new House emblem, ahouse song :91th and a basketball team. 51.6.
