Repressing Irrepressible Conflicts a ca “SY OUNG gentlemen,’ fessor Gorgonzola Fromage, of began Pro- cy \\\ Obfuscus University, “we take up this morning the most important subject of irrepressible conflicts. Now, if any of you will look around, or even half way around, you will see that there is an irrepressible conflict. No period is complete without an irrepressible conflict, and it is peculiarly necessary in fissiparative days like these, This is an important fact to realize. Without it you cannot go forth from “thtse walls armed with the cultural wherewithal to meet, combat and conquer the vicissitudes of life. “But there is another point to remember, young gen- tlemen, There has been a great change in irrepressible conflicts, Until now—that is, until the massive intellects of the twentieth century concentrated upon this problem— it has always been assumed to be one of the essentials of an irrepressible conflict that it should be irrepressible. Never was there a greater blunder, By means of the microscope, the X-rays, the germ theory, pragmatism and AT LIFE'’S FRESH AIR FARM ON A HOT AFTERNOON Christian Science we have been able to work a complete revolution in this realm of thought. “Do you see, gentlemen, how that simplifies and prac- tically gets rid of the whole subject of conflicts? Just as soon as we reduce an irrepressible conflict to a state of complete repressibility, our task is easy, because a conflict that has been repressed is really not a conflict at all. Of course, when we have two coincidental and contem- poraneous conflicts, it is somewhat different. It is not so easy to harmonize and synthesize them, because the diffi- culty increases in geometrical progression, The method of procedure, however, is practically the same. First reduce each irrepressible conflict to repressibility. Then it will be seen that the two conflicting conflicts do not conflict with the same virility as before. From this point a little cautious jockeying by the industrious and careful laborator will produce most gratifying results. “In my next lecture I will show you how an irrepressible conflict that has been repressed can be re-endowed with irrepressibility.’ Explained RIEND: Why is the editor of your paper howling so insistently for war? He must be very patriotic. Reporter: No; he has a lot of jokes left over from the Spanish-American War that he wants a chance to work off. comicbooks.com
