It is refreshing to meet our clean-living Rivals Through The Centuries, and see how wonderfully they have progressed since we founded their alma matter a few centuries ago.

The bearded faces in the Square are juxtaposed, indeed one might say thrust out glaring, noses touching, to the shiny, just-shaven whey face of the average American business man. Outside of the Schweppesman, nobody can get ahead in the business world bearded; it is such a contrast that is sought...
