against failure and also helps fill
up the page.
Be vague
Be as vague as you can. Deal
in great, meaningless generalities
and you too may be a First Lady,
or even a Second Gentleman. If
you're specific, somebody may trip
you up and you'll fall flatter than
a bride's souffle. (Incidentally, it's
a good idea to use lots of trite
similes like "bride's souffle.")
Make your theme as unreadable
as possible. If you use Ink,
smudge it well with the thumb.
If a typewriter, go back over your
mistakes and hit the wrong keys.
If you make it hard enough to
read, the teacher may decide you're
a genius and give you an A plus.
Otherwise, he'll see thru you like
a skirt on a windy day.
The best theme we ever read
Movie Clock
Nebraska: "Roaring Twen
ties," 1:00, 3:14, 5:20, 7:34,9:48.
Varsity: "Golden Boy" 1:00,
3:10, 5:15, 7:25, 9:35.
Lincoln: "20,000 Men a Year"
1:00, 4:01, 6:02, 10:30. "Made
at Night" 2:41, 5:42, 8:43.
Stuart: "Disputed Passage"
1:00, 3:14, 5:28, 7:42, 9:56.
Klva: "Four Feathers" 2:30,
5:55, 9:20. "Winter Carnival"
1:00, 4:25, 7:45.
Liberty: "Eternally Yours"
1:00, 3:10, 5:20, 7:30, 9:40.
was written by a boy whom we'll
call Smith. On second thought
we'll call him Brown, just to make
SURE you don't know whom we
mean.
Brown's (Smith's) theme started
out like this:
Dere teacher. I don't know what
I awt to rite about for a theme so
I will tell you about my dawg,
Shorty. My dawg Shorty is the
best traned dawg you ever seen.
He will bring home Iamb chops
well as skunks, old overshoes, au
tomobeel tires and my ole man.
At this point the teacher had
such a splitting headache that he
wrote an "A plus" on the paper
and dropped it down the mail
chute from where it was sent to
Hollywood and made into a film
which won 12 loving cups as the
worst picture ever made.
'My best recipe'
The trouble with most themes is
that the students try to say some
thing. Never try to say anything
in an English theme! Remember.
STYLE IS THE MAN! Write that
big letters and put it over your
desk. Write it on scraps of paper
and burn them slowly over a
steaming cauldron of lava in the
light of . the moon while witches
dance and owls scream.
Make your themes as dull as a
Sunday school teacher's idea of
Good Clean Fun. Make them fairly
shout boredom. Your teachers will
love you and maybe some day
