Comic Description:

The comic features a speaker, Professor Steward, standing in front of an audience of neurologists. He is depicted as a middle-aged man with glasses and a friendly expression, dressed in a suit and tie. He is gesturing towards a large illustration of a brain projected on a wall, which is labeled "Fig. 1."

Text:

• Professor Steward says: "WELCOME, DISTINGUISHED NEUROLOGISTS. YOU KNOW, MY GRANNY USED TO SAY 'A MIND IS A FUNNY THING. IT CONSUMES LIKE A FROG, BUT IT GROWS LIKE A PUPPY DOG'S CLAWS.'"

The bottom of the comic includes a caption: "Professor Steward lectured on the importance of curing senility."
