such wholesale fumigation was nec-
essary to make certain of the prop-
er result.
This was the opportunity t h a t
had been awaited by the disap-
p o- n t e d office-seekers who had
failed to secure control of the city
government in the election as they
had hoped. They began by bewail-
ing the terrible state of affairs;
they then went farther to condemn
this and that minor executive as
incompetent; and -now the -stage
was set for the denunciation they
had waited to make: C h a r l e s
Bowles, they said, was the cause of
all the corruption, vice, and crimeI

This column ,always a crusader
for the trite and true, welcomes
any suggestions for the remedying
of this sad situation. Just as a!
starter, the following method of
disposing of canine annoyance has
been forwarded by Livina Backus,
one of the fairest blossoms in our
women's staff, that garland of,
flowers which keeps the old wheels
turning in spite of dull care, wear,
tear, swear (Here,here, here!-ED-
itor).
You procure at the nearest drug
store some good-sized sponges and!
coat them with bacon fat. Then,
when you see one of man's best
friends bearing down upon you
with an intent look in a bloodshot
eye, just toss him one of your spon-'
ges, like Psyche throwing the sop
to Cerberus (classical reference to
be clipped out by all A. B. and M.
A. Lain teachers, pasted into their
notebooks, and carried back to
their "eager" classes in the fall as
another convincing proof of the
usefulness of the classics in later
life)-just toss him one of your
sponges, as we were saying, and
go on in peace. Come back again
in about two weeks and if he
isn't lying in the gutter with a
rather sad look:in his eye, he ought I
to be. *
