SCHOOL DAYS. 17 l THE ACADEMIC DEPARTMENT. WHO'S WHOSE. 1l..1..- There is a boy in S. U. , l Wfho's loved by more than two. Edna once was called a Post, Now she gets only a roast. Theodore is very wise, To guess by the blue of his eyes. If you wish to raise his malice, just pretend to love his Alice. Edgar hails from north of town, His face is never wrinkled with a frown, For every dayin class. He sits beside his Lena lass. Iva used to love her T, But now,-Oh he! Oh fee! Iva is a Flirt we fear, For she let him leave without a tear. There is a boy from west of Phelps, His Auriel he often helps. Charley is so very wise, That from him she cannot take her eyes. Ethel is our darling pride, Her knowledge is so wide. VVe'd like to tell her lover's name, But alas! shels never told the same. Olive is a dandy girl, Wfhose hair is never out of curl. She declares, without her Mott, Her life would be a blot. lohn, your case is very sad, For you are such a bashful lad, But all the girls are stuck on you, And would like to tell you, too. G. F.
