Boots Force DuBose
To Send Out SOS
Have any of you fish ever seen
an officer trying to put on his first
pair of stiff, sldnnig new boots'!
And without a boothook? If you
have, you have at least a faint
conception of the stirring scene I
witnessed the other day when Mag-
gie Duboso had her life's greatest
battle and conquest.
Captain Mulcahy and Hickman,
along with the sole member of the
fair sex who witnessed the whole of
the comedy (or tragedy??), brought
the boots to the dump parlor and
called Maggie to try them on. That
was where the struggle began, but
it was a long, long time before the
flushed, dishevelled Maggie sank
weakly into the nearest chair and
acknowledged her conquest by a
weak little grin.
Here is how the story goes, and, I
assure you, every detail is herewith
told with all conscientious accuracy
and truthfulness. The right boot
was the first into which the fair of-
ficer inserted her tiny pink toes and
dainty foot with all of her usual
delicate self-assurance and that well
known grin. Both the assurance and
the grin, however, soon disappeared
as Maggie tugged and pulled and
stamped and twisted in her efforts
to get her aforementioned little foot'
to the bottom of the boot. About
this time in walked Bill Gobble,
ever-true and loj'al ex-Tarletonite.
lie mado tho fourth of a highly
amused audoiuce which had com-
pletely forgotten, in its merriment,
to offer its help. After many long
and arduous, but vain attempts,
Maggie put' her pride behind her and
sent out her SOS.
Suggestions were numerous, but
actual physical aid was not offered.
At length Bill, his tender heart
melted by Maggie's appealing glanc-
es, applied his manly hands to the
boot' tops' and tugged away. After
repeated efforts the boot gave in
and the dainty foot hit bottom with
a thud. But the other boot was a
different question. AIL of the efforts
applied to the fust were used on the
second, but it seemed a failing cause
to the despairing helper and the de-
lighted audience, as well as to the
brave and courageous Maggie her-
self. 1
As time was passing rapidly and
Captain Mulcahy felt the need of
refreshment, he condescended to
help Bill with the stubborn boot. It
soon became evident to the remain-
ing two that the ease would bo hope-
less without their aid, and they ap-
plied their strength as, well. Four
pairs of hands—all 011 one boot!
And poor Maggie was clingipg to a
door-facing with all her might to
keep from losing her balance. Then,
—THUD!!! O11 went the boot!
With a sigh of relief, Maggie
slumped into' a chair with Bill feeb-
ly leaning on a radiator for support,
and Captain Mulcahy and Hickman
staggered weakly to the door and
disappeared, I, "Speck," after all
the excitement and tension which I
had been under for the past three
hours, fell to the floor in a faint and
was carried to my room. I have nev-
er heard, to this day, the rest of the
story. Ask Maggie. Perhaps she will
tell you: After writing this, I do not
have the nerve to.
