ROULETTE Hem- those ilarkii’s luiiiiiiiiiig, On their l)an,jos strumining, Hear the sounds of hands a-claiiiiing. And the sounds of slioe-toes tapping. Dancing in old-fashit)ned way, Ha])p,v, langhing darkies gay; Old folks, young folks, one and all. Sway to ninsic’s rise and fall. Gay and carefree, never sad, Infe, after all, is not so bad; So those good old banjos say, “J ' lnjoy yoni- happiness while yon may.” ' hen that banjo liegins its song. The bines won’t hang on very long; For a body can’t be sad, Jf the banjo says, “Be glad!” — 78 —

ROULETTE and baffling. This book is written by Trigonometry X Al- gebra and comes highly recommended. Item VIII. We leave to the masculine member of our mathematics department, Mr. Burns, a highly valuable box of “ambition pills,” which are to be distributed to his class, that they may grow in wisdom. Item IX. To our French professor, Mr. Freas, we leave one black necktie so that the eyes of his pupils may have a rest. Item X. We bequeath to Miss Betty Sweeney, “Queen of Pots and Pans,” a new recipe for making soup economically with- out adding but 75 per cent of H-O. Item XL To Miss Browning, our typewriting teacher, we be- queath one record of “Sonny Boy” so that students can put real emotion and seriousness into their typewriting. Item XII. To Miss Leftwich we give one revolver that she may prevent the linking of her name with that of Mr. Freas in future issues of “The Roulette.” Item XIII. To Mr. Day we leave one l)aseball which he may present to the player who has knocked the greatest number of home runs in a game with John Marshall. Item XIV. And last, but not least, as the old saying goes, we leave to our good friend, Mr. Holmes, the address of the editor of the “True Story Magazine” so that “Sarge” may put some of his thrilling adventures into print. Witnesseth, the bond and seal of the Senior Class of 1929, on the 21st day of February in ye old year of 1929. —JAMES D’ALTON.
