Then with the stuff printed came the problem of getting it bound. We went to Cecil Bacon's house, found an old faded calico gown his sister would never miss, tore it into strips, punched holes in the paper with an instrument used to make paper wads for the muzzle loading shotguns of that day, bound our Bogus Sophographs, and distributed half of them among student boarding houses. At chapel exercises on that grand and glorious morning there was a brisk demand for copies of our publication; we we...re offered nickels, then dimes, then quarters, all of which we refused to accept, but when the folks began to appreciate the value of our magazine and offered a half a dollar for one, we released half of them and held off for one dollar apiece for the rest. Opportunities such as that come only once in a lifetime, so we made the most of it. Not con- tent with the success of our Bogus, some of the boys raided the room of the editor of the real Sopho graph and came away with all of the stories, poems, articles, pictures, and what have you that were to have graced the pages of that magazine.
