"Just a minute," said the pro fessor. "The very letters of your statement are a rearrangement of a very well known proverb to the same effect. If you can figure out what the proverb is, I will not take anything off your grade for the paper being late." However the boy yas merely lazy and had no idea of the length of time and labour it takes to build or shape exeat things. He could not spot the proverb Can you? Answer of Dr. Ruark to Lewis Carroll's propositions: v. To save time -we 'number the propo sitions in the order, they were listed in yesterday's paper, 1 through 9. Then supposing that Carroll's conclu sion is false and thai any wise young pig can go up' in balloons. - r- We start off -with number. 3, which tells . us- that a wise balloonist takes an umbrella, with him. By proposition 8 he looks ridiculous, by 5 he is liable to giddiness, by 2 he is treated with respect, (for . he is r liable to . giddi ness) , by 7 he does not dance on tight ropes, by 9 jhe. is iat (for he also is treated .with' respect and does not dance on tight ropes), by 6 he may lunch' in public . : ' But: in proposition 4 we have his activities limited in that ' he cannot eat r penny . buns, . for . if , he did - he would not be allowed to lunch in pub- lie, contradicting 4. However all who neither dance on tight ropes or eat penny buns are old. according to the first proposition. Therefore our assumption that any wise young pig can go up in balloons is false because of this contradiction and the original conclusion that "No wise young pigs go up in balloons" is true.
