Having followed the activities of Psychology A for a number of years, and taken a considerable interest in dual personalities and the various manifestations of complexes as set forth by professor Pratt, the Vagabond is frankly puzzled -oh, not by professor Pratt, but by a certain Mr. Donald McKee. Mr. McKee, is probably well known and thoroughly disliked by everyone under the age thirty as the cartoonist whose vivid portrayals of the younger generation, in various stages of mental degeneration and alcoholic stupor, appear in the popular magazines.

With all the latest psychological concepts at his finger tips, the Vagabond has given considerable thought to the sad case of Mr. McKee. The first solution that came to mind was that the patient had been a victim of misfortune in his family life, and had himself been subjected to some of the harrowing experiences with his drunken and feeble-minded offspring which so afflicted the patient fathers and mothers of his illustratfons.

But calling to mind the deceptive behaviour of parents in similar circumstances, the Vagabond concluded that Mr. McKee undoubtedly has a model family -more's the pity! Obviously the origin of the trouble lies deeply buried in the victim's past. Perhaps this extreme distaste for the college student barks back to a very personal interview, a long, long time ago, between a certain dean and a certain young Don McKee. Perhaps at the conclusion of this interview, the budding cartoonist went out into the wide world, feeling rather keenly the absence of the usual benediction. Perhaps he feels that he has been unjustly treated, and that his offence was no greater than the usual sort of thing that goes on today. But the Vagabond feels very strongly that this unfortunate figure would lead a much brighter life if he were to go to a good psychiatrist and get it all out of his system--in fact, in view of the benefits which he believes would result to the whole community, he would be willing to pay the bills.
