"The meeting is now ad- t

dent of the Clariosophic Liter- c
ary Society announced Tuesday t
night after the necessary mo- t
tion had passed.
"Will that interfere with the
second roll call? Epting Mer
chant, Clario member inquired. a
"I am afraid it will, Mr. Mer
chant. You see, when we ad
journ, all members leave. For c
that reason it is impossible to r
have the second rolk call," the i
president explained. i
"What seems to be the trou- f
ble with this young fellow?"
a visitor wanted to know.
"From time immemorial he
has insisted on having the sec
ond roll call, says it's in the
constitution; but nobody wants
it. Yet every week he filibus
ters and harangues an hour try
ing to get it," a member an
swered.
"Yes, at times it seems as
though we'll have to eject him,
the way he carries on. It's ter
rible," another added.
By this time all have left ex
cept two who are looking in
from the door observing Mer
chant who, stands in the mid
dle of the floor, earnestly V
pleads his cause, all alone.
Fiften minutes later the same
two reappear. Shaky from ex
haustion, Merchant stammers.,
He makes his last stand.
Feebly come the words. Will
no one hear him? Will no one s
take heed? Hark, listen:
"I want a second roll call, roll
call,roll call, call..." C
