BOARD

Mrs. Muldooney's is by all means the most desirable place. It is

crowded, hot, noisy, expensive, and not particularly nourishing. Mrs.

Muldooney is a tall, grim, steel-armored old cruiser of sixty-five, with

dark-blue hair, who doles out eleven canned cherries to every man at

luncheon and sends in word from the kitchen that there aren't any more.

She tries to collect twenty-five cents when you have a guest; but as you

promptly disown your guest, she is usually foiled. Her place, however,

is always crowded with Freshmen, and I ought to go there.
