QUI N 1 AULT 21 Chapter II. 1. And in the same year, certain plagues were inflicted upon the tribe to test their courage and valor. 2. And the plagues came about in this wise: 3. Lo, a certain sport called basket ball was indulged in, and, woe is me! another tribe proved more powerful. 4. And alas! the favored people did lose the championship by two scores. 5. Then did the tribe vow this terrible revenge. 6. It shall come to pass, that the children of the chosen shall be as lions in the fight and shall be champions above all others. Chapter III. 1. And many and grievous were the plagues added unto these. 2. But the mighty council harkened not unto its groanings, but hardened their hearts against them. 3. Then the tribe did mightly rise above these trials, and were strengthened by their tribulations. SECOND CHRONICLES Chapter I. 1. Behold, a year had passed, and new tribes entered the wilderness and did weakly oppose the Junior tribe, and its supremacy soon became more unquestioned than before. 2. Lo, the patriarch who did rule so wisely and well in the last year was succeeded by a new chieftain and his name was called Willik-son, and the tribe prospered under his sway. Chapter II. 1. Then did the tribe in most solemn council, decree to publish a pamphlet which was to be called the “Junior Issue.’' 2. The scribes who should record these acts were duly chosen, and the work progressed steadily. 3. Verily we say unto you, the Junior Issue was successful in that it paid for itself. 4. And lo, the tribe was justly proud, it was the first pamphlet published by the children of tribulation since their coming into their new habitation. Chapter III. 1. And lo, the days of wondering and strife were nearly over, and the promised land was in sight. 2. Behold, a tribe crossed the river with its stormy billows, and came out of the wilderness of petty strifes with other tribes. 3. And lo, they became Seniors, to whom all things were possible.
