"A slim clew." Ah, the days when the Chicago Tribune had is own language.

Destroyed every picture of herself? Reminds me of the beginning of Dylan Thomas' _Adventures in the Skin Trade_.

Reminds me of Zappa's "Who Needs The Peace Corps?"

No analogue today because, now, parents routinely ship their children off to college, where they are encouraged to imbibe of drugs and alcohol and hook up with other students, of the opposite sex or not. And they are trained to such a lifestyle in their formative years, via the public school system. Now, the only forbidden fruit is conservative thought.
