THE ARLINGTON HIGH SCHOOL CLARION 20 Some Seniors stood on the car track, A car was coming fast; The car got off the railway track And let the Seniors past. (Evidently written by a jealous Sophie.) The early bird gets the worm, but a late sopliie gets a slip. Safety First! Miss Treat: “Winn, you stay fifteen minutes for me at the close of school.” G. W. : “Give me time to go to the coat-room and salvage my rubbers.” Song Titles “Oh, How I Miss that Old Gang of Mine.” — Miss Connor, C. J. H. S. “I ' m Forever Blowing Bubbles.” — Al Marsters. “Tell Me Dreamy Eyes” — Teacher to pupil in study. “All Alone” — Anyone in Room 14 at 1.15 (?). “Oh Joseph” — Harrington. “Oh Lady Be Good” — Pupil to teacher who has caught him doing something. “Maybe You Will and Maybe You Won’t” — Pass your subjects. “Haunting Melody” — The Orchestra. Sing a Little Song” — The Glee Club. “Don’t Blame It All On Me” — Any culprit. — Many rubbers have been taken from the coat-room by “Miss-take.” We should like to make her ac- quaintance. A noted author once remarked that a fool was a person who asked ques- tions that no man could answer. Now we wonder who made out the Mid- years? Wanted : “A manager for the Arling- ton High School Tiddlewinks-Six.” Ilooley be? IL Phelps: Where is my polygon?” K. Stoker: “Up the geomtree.” We wonder if the “Senior Orators” I are really appreciated as little as the Soph’s mid-years would seem to make i them.

THE ARLINGTON HIGH SCHOOL CLARION 10 Make out a cross-word puzzle in Chinese. Recite two thousand lines — consecu- tive. Identify — Crustparmentliysrantisvist- finokkd. Where found and how? By whom? When? What for? Spats have been added to the equip- ment of the well dressed student. Haven’t they “Rags?” The Seniors, they are mighty, The Seniors, they are great ; But it takes the little Sophie To make this school first, rate! (More Sophomore propaganda!) We all agree that Joe Ennis acted very much at home in some of the “difficult” scenes of Pinafore. — That Dan Hooley was “sweet enough to be kissed.” Mrs. Moffat : “I used to get all mixed up in my dates. I We were recently informed that a girl had her dress ruined by sitting on i some gum. Ted Thomas suggests that the diffi- I culty might have been overcome by chewing the gum. What is a night without an English home-lesson ? A Treat. Miller, in Biology: “I knew some i people over in Belmont and they bought some oysters and they all turned i pink. How the Mighty Have Fallen! The day after “Pinafore,” Sir Joseph Porter, K. C. B., was seen slinging but- ter at Ames, Dick Deadeye was weigh- ing “spuds” at the Clover-dale, Ralph Rackstraw was driving Holt’s old gray mare, and Bill Bobstay was selling turpentine and wood alcohol (? at Shattuck’s. Such is life ! Miss Conway : “Identify Carthage.” Sophie: “Carthage was a very brave and loyal Roman General.” Please ! — Will Miss Pierce tell us why the 1025 chorus is the best she has ever- had ? — Will Miss Hutchins tell us why she occasionally wears her necklace hang- ing down her back? — Will Miss Bullock name her favor- ite pupil? The notice on the bulletin some time ago, concerning “Boat Construc- tion” was only for those gentlemen who “paddle their own canoes.” Aye Limit, 1(5! Probably the reason why there isn’t more poetry in this issue is because so few have a poetic license. The Seniors think they know it all, And probably they do! But when it’s time to graduate, They ' ll envy Sophies, too! Question on Senior English Exam : He ate and drank the precious words, His spirit grew robust.” Interpretation: “He read a book and grew fat.” Mr. Fowler: “Name a product of petroleum used in your home,” Tartleton : “Slikum.”
