A biology instructor, Mr. Pennington could not resist the temptation to make a biological analysis, so he opened his speech with the words, "If there are those among you so erudite as to think there must be a title to such a speech as this, we will call it, "Aunt Sophie is a Bird," and I shall attempt to HORACE ODUM, head of the South Georgia Trade School, Ameri- show you why I think so." cus, presents Aunt Sophie with a bound book of letters written Beginning with his initial by some of her former "boys." chargin over having a woman house director, Mr. Pennington went on to tell how Aunt fun to see what "rig" she used posed when their "feathered Sophie's motherly concern over for each occasion—jewelry— friend" found rooms unkept, or her charges and her delight in glamorous and glittering; hats— some other job that needed do- entertaining them in her apart- plain and fancy, picture to ing. ment soon won him over.
