Professor Mason Hammond defends the Latin requirement for an A.B. degree by proving beyond all possibility of refutation that Latin is a cultural language, that Roman history throws a tremendous light on the history of today, and is in itself very valuable and important in the history and civilization of the world. But who learns enough Latin to read more than a couple of great works of old so slowly and painfully that only disgust remains? And who learns Roman history in the Latin tongue anyway?

...famous Keeley institute provides a cure for the drinking habit. At the Tivoli I have a cure for the gambling habit. The man who steps into my place is faced with the sign, 'Caveat Emptor' which hangs upon the wall." For the improperly educated, Soapy translated the Latin text into real life. When Denver finally decided it was tired of Soapy and his kind, he moved on again, this time to Mexico, where he almost sold old Porfirio Díaz the services of a Mexican Foreign Legion, which Soapy, for a good round sum, was to organize...
