It contains as much truth as humor. The verse is by Karl E. Harriman, George R. Barker, Harold M. Bowman, Jack Mïnot, Arthur M. Smith and H. E. Kellogg. There is interesting prose matter by Barker, Bowman and other. The cap and gown is well distributed throughout the number. Several bits of humor erop out.
