Show Try It. Prof. L. O. Thayre, the well-known lexicologist, calls our attention to a most interesting phenomenon, or whatever it is. The professor occasionally occa-sionally whiles away an idle hour with experiments upon words. Especially ioes he enjoy discovering what combinations com-binations may be made of the letters In proper names. He writes us that he has arranged the letters in the name of THEODORE ROOSEVELT so that they form a complete and characteristic sentence. The professor offers to contest publicly with any and all challengers after the Jeffries-Johnson Jeffries-Johnson debate on the Fourth of July, and claims that he can make more sentences of the letters In Colonel Roosevelt's name than any one else of his weight and age. The professor's first exhibit is this: O, HE DOES LOVE RETORT. Can any of our readers equal or excel ex-cel this? |
