Color was lent to this vile supposition by Mac becoming slightly entangled when he gave them the yell "V-a-r-s-i-t-y". Three times did the crowd of eaters change before our heroes had quenched their thirst and satisfied their appetites to make a list of all the choice dishes they consumed would be too great a feat of memory, so we will endeavor to convey some idea by submitting the fact that Mac's bill was only $3.85 [?] it is easily own. That whatever Mac has learned on his three year's sojourn among us he has at least learned well "How to Entertain."
