Higher institutions of learning might probably consider an extension into the realm of maternity. When "Bacchanalian Arts 1a, 1b, 1d," grace dull course indexes, Universities may find a way to fill the cup of learning. "Fat rats, thin rats, scrawny rats" will throng after the elusive flute. "Heaviside Calculus" and "Molecular Forces" possess a soporific charm all their own, but who can foretell the rush of "black rats, white rats, and brown rats," to worship at the feet of a seer who could outline the indefinable incompatibility of champagne and muligataway...

A Princess, "the most beautiful Princess you have ever seen." is reading in her tower retreat. A saucy page, who has climbed up to the window ledge, interrupts her by tootling on his flute. Their little flirtation is doing nicely when he confesses that he is no page but a spy. Soldiers are looking for him.
