'27 TRI E BLUE When you get for a General Science lesson “drink hot water every morning this month When the teacher cans you and there’s no one in the office to whom to tell your troubles; When you have exhausted all the ah’s and er’s; When Catherine Lahiff starts her lingo; When a teacher decides that the little road without a turning from 217 to the office needs a little more traveling; When the evening shadows fall and you’re still up at school; When the thermometer registers 10 degrees below and while you gaze at the sign “Door opened at 1:00 p. m., the teachers pass into the warm building; Is “When a Feller Needs a Friend.” In the solitary hour of English When the minutes seem so long, I have often,, often wondered If there isn’t something wrong. The hands seem moving backward, As I watch them on their course And the only remedy for it Is to use a little force. Perhaps it’s cause I’m always dreaming That the time so slowly goes, But just the same I’ll do some kicking Even if it comes to blows. —H. H. ’22. Non-Essentials: The student who spills his ink and brings in the ammonia bottle. The bird with the hackey cough, who refuses you one of his mentholatum cough drops. The fellow who chews gum like a corn sheller. The girl who claims half a dozen hooks in the cloak room.

Of course there’s lots of work to do, But then I call it fun; For just to make some useful thing Is worth all kinds of “mon” And then as to the teacher I think that he’s a sport For he never (?) reprimands us And he makes a long test short (?) He told me that the class I’m in Was the worst one that he had. But then I guess he’s joking. For we reallv aren’t so bad. H. H. '22 . Son—“Dad are you still growing ?” Father—“Why no! Why?” Son—“Your head is coming through your hair.”—Exchange
