He had a certain acquired distinction, but was very correct. His method was simplicity. Provost emphasised breadth, Samson exactitude, and he was very particular about the finals. He would not allow us to drop the voice at the end of the phrase.
My Sixth, an old blossom in medicine once famed, Was good for the eyesight, and thus it was named. Now if you have guessed all these flowers that I prize, Please take my initials and finals likewise: The former you'll find to be hiding the latter; If you've solved the enigma you'll see 'tis a matter Perchance may provide you with just a lost link, And bring you a greater reward than you think.
It will be presented to the winner of this year's championship of Woodvale by Miss Grace Harding, and I have posted an announcement of the conditions of the competition.

Foster was standing near to catch his room-mate, and as he wrapped the bath robe around him, he said: "It's all right, Will; you're in the finals." "First two taken?" gasped Will. "Yes." "Hold on. Let's hear the time," said Will, stopping abruptly as the announcer advanced. "Hundred-yards dash, first heat," called the senior, "Won by number ten. Second, number fifteen.
