The Legend of Gentleman ‘Once upon a time, in a Kingdom close close by, there lived a-King. This King served on many courts in other Kingdoms, known as the courts of I.L.C.C. He grew in rank until the peasants believed him to be the great god of booze. Every week the peasants -payed homage to the great god by attending to his many round tables in his courtyard known as Gentle- man Arthur's. For the King was called King Arthur. While the King was away, the Knight in favour at ‘the time took care of these peasants. This Knight was known as Lord Brownie. Now Lord Brownie was a nice 'lord, as lords go, but the ladies of the court inter- ‘ested him more. ‘ The King called his peas— ,ants together by the blar~1 ing of the music. They became so mesmerized by this music, that they left 700 — 1,200 in tithes be- fore they.realized that they had been hypnotized by the spinning of the wagon wheel. They also realized that it was not the state of Eu— phoria they believed it to be. When the lights went on and the music stop— ped, the peasants were left in a smoke filled room with their empty pgckets for company.

This night was called peasant night. Now, it just so happened that the King was beginning to feel threatened by the Queen of a neighboring kingdon, and in order to keep peace, sanity and his wealth, he sent Lord Brown- ie to investigate the weekly follies at the Queen's Barn. The King felt that the Queen may be drawing his peasants loyalty away fromkhis court of Gentleman Arthur's. Even his loyal lordly lord was'showing his own dis- loyalty by entedng into the Queen's Barn to participate in the frolic. Do you think that this King would resort to bribing the Queen in order to bring the peasants loyalty back by ' offering to lower his prices? if only the peasants would return.

The king was a tricky one off or on the bottle. The ladies in waiting who served the drinks to the peasants were paid by how much tithes they got for selling booze.
