Mastertou has a spring poet, who is also a student of current events. This is his latest effort: — Tom Wilford had dreamt him a dream. He had a dis.mfll nightmare. Things were not what they might seem About the Boyd Oarlick affair. And so, with profound gravity He proffered his legal advice On what to" him seemed to. be A "scandal" —ever so nice. He called to his side Avon's own, And Isitt, the man of the " 'our," And '"wittily" sough* ofut a bone T» pick, if not to devour. They growled, and they barked night and day. They made a terrible nolso. What awful things did they say About the instructor ctf boys! But when the whole thing fizzled out, The snarlers with tongues in their cheeks. Confessed that the Garlick in doubt Was used to cloak their own "leaks."
