prospective chaperon takes bait, hook, and sinker. He believes any
thing, anytime, anywhere. He believes fairy tales because he Is a
chronic chaperon and he is a chronic chaperon because he does. lie
likes to stay up most of a night spending his time riding forty miles
to a country club, sitting in a draft for four hours, changing a tire
and then riding forty miles home. He loves to worry over the capers
of young men who are dressed In monkey suits and who try to act
in nonchalant and sophisticated ways, but who. succeed only in putting
on asinine demonstrations. He Is interested in trying to get his coat
and hat checked and then in unchecking said coat and said hat. He
shakes hands with enthusiasm and murmers (just murmurs) when
trying to remember the names of those in hla classes. He likes to wait
around for an hour after a dance In order that he may be sure that all
devotees of the terpsichorean art have departed for unchaperoned
spots and places. He likes to be Imposed upon, he simply loves it
He likes to dance with the one girl who is dumb enough to ask him
and he likes to think that she likes to dance with him. He likes to
start sneesing about 12:30 and to nurse a cold for the three following
days. He likes to be noticed by the football captain even though he
seldom is and he likes to talk to the momentary queen even though
she haa a number of things she would rather do than talk to him
Nice boy the chaperon! May God love him because no one else
does!
