Dizziness with Success

It is grand that the Dining Halls Department has redesigned the circular trays--raising the partitions. Now there is no chance of mashed potatoes, succotash, and welch rarebit slopping out of their appointed compartment into an unappetizing mess. And the new trays solve the problem of sauces and gravies dripping over the sides onto the eater's trousers.

Best of all, this innovation will put an end to serving tables clogged with students who come back for seconds because their trays are too shallow for adequate first servings.

But in its enthusiasm, the Dining Halls Department has overextended itself: not content with the new trays, it has redesigned the soup bowls as well. The plain truth of it is that the new soup bowls are too big to fit anywhere on the new trays.
