Lgmbg to the slaughter .-.9 4--5 -.q ' 1 .1- ,11 ' ,.q 5' Q A Se. . KZIK .Q--1 B -. A '1 Captaln and Neptunls Rex. . . ' Those who have not crossed the equator are S lmy pollywogs. Those who have and who have bee n duly initiated are honorable shellbacks. There is nothin h ha gon eart lower than a pollywog, nor greater l' n a shellback - on the day of crossing the zero latitude. Due initiation isa nice way of saying that the ll po ywog must be completely terrorized, made to f e e eel that he IS no higher than aworm starved beaten, worked like a slave -- and thenlgiven thb Ilt u reatment of being wetted down, warmed behind by ranks of shellbacks, of meeting the Baby's belly, getting a proper haircut, tasting a few pollywog delicacies, having some slight surgery done, of dis- covering iust how slimy a man can become, and fi- nally of getting baptised an honorable shellback. Neptunis Rex had no trouble finding the ship early that infamous moming and discovered that his loyal adherents, the shellbacks, had everythin 9 under control. Soon the pollywogs were before the Royal Court and were amazed that: the Royal Judge knew their every fault, the Royal Chaplain was singularly unsympathetic, the King looked remark- ably like someone they had seen before, the Queen was inclined to have a beard, and the Royal Baby's crying could bestopped only in a most peculiar man- ner. Strangely enough, the pollywogs seemed to sur- vive the ceremony. ln fact, though they may have come out blue physically, they were not thus in spirit. -l ,., l Q .-Y.. gf' -Q ,- f 4 in ,, ,-,.f -4 f i 1. - A :- ..,.. .- 'A 4.- 1 1 A 'Q i' is Bqptlsrn...
