would have the delirious delight of listening to Candidate D B Hempstend When Mr Jlempstead who had been perspiring profusely for hours thinking up something to say arose it was observed that he still wore his aristocratic pince nei despite warnings against their continued uac He also had ona bow tie with a narrow nar-row bluestripe in It and his shoes were highly polished Miss Julia Curtis a very
