Heard in Physical Geography Class: Mr. Parrot, holding up half folded umbrella: “Now this is exactly the way the sun casts its shadow only it is entirely different.” Some Definitions Freshman-One of a widely spread genus, most of an emerald hue,much imposed upon, much to be pitied. Status in animal kingdom at present indefinite. Sophomore—A “Freshie” but doesn't know it; characterized by unwarrantable swelling of outer ex. tremities, probably natural with lower, not to be pitied. Junior—An unknown quantity, skilled in ' slipping through ‘exams’. Char-acterized by shiny pompadores and fuzzy chins, not to be scorned I for we have been there ourselves. Senior—Worn out individual fit for grad- j uating only; chief occupation being in planning method of getting diploma without any study. Nuf Sed. Miss Houser take notice: It is said you can not hypnotize an idiot. Does this “throw any light” on your failures? It is no‘go’Allan; “sheaming” imposters is not yet in the dictionary. Harold: “Believe me. I’m the only lady killer.” Warren: “Yes; but you can’t show me how” (My? Since when?) Edward (in reply to question, What are the Balkan States?) Afghanistan, Baluchistan, Ac. (That so? and after all that war?) “Morning, Noon and Evening” The sun having risen, we pursued our journey. Apples to eat are plentiful. There were giants in these days. It is natural for man to indulge in the various illusions of hope. What is the differenae between a latin student and a cowboy? Ans.: None whatever, we leave the answer to you. Why? What Would Happen ????? IF We should have our lessons on Monday. We should all get 100 in spelling. Mr. Henson should dismiss before the bell. If this annual were so good that it could not be criticised. What makes “Chet” take so many trips to Berlin? (Or is it to the Berlins?) All the girls in the Senior Class are having “fits” but this does not “suit” the boys (The tailor will). Behold the next 7 pages for ye wondrous ones”. “Dad” he asked, “does it cost much to keep a lion”? “It does, my son”. “A wolf would make a good meal for a lion, wouldn't it, did?” “Yes”. “And a fox would begoodenuf for the wolf, wouldn’t it, dad”. “I suppose so, run out and play”. “A fox would be satisfied with a hawk, and a sparrow would satisfy a hawk, eh dad”? “Yes, yes, now”— “Wait a minute dad, now we’re coming to it. A spider would make a meal for the sparrow wouldn’t it”? “Well supposing it would”? “Yes, that’s just it, dad. Now what I want to know is this: the fly could live on a drop of molasses, so how long could a man keep a lion on a quart of molasses?” And then the sound of a falling slipper awoke the echoes of the stilly night. (The above is a fair sample of argumentation heard in J. H. S.)
