M. S. Pinafore, off Portsmouth. The sailors on board the good ship Pinafore are busily cleaning up the decks, pending the arrival of Sir Joseph Porter, of the British Admiralty, when Little Buttercup, a bumboat woman, comes on board. She is busy selling her wares when Captain Corcoran makes his appearance. He is sad because his daughter, Josephine, is in love with a common sailor while Sir Joseph is seeking her hand. Ralph Rockstrow is the poor, lowly sailor who loves Josephine but, because she is so far above his station, she rejects his love. This so dis- courages him, he is in the act of killing himself when Josephine rushes on, snatches the gun and discloses her love. With the aid of the sailors they plan to steal a-shore at night and be married at once. Dick Deodeye, the ship's pessimist, and being no socialist, de- cides to tell the captain of the proposed plan and thus foil them. This he does and the lovers are caught, just as they are leaving the ship. Being very angry Capt. Corcoran so far forgets himself as to swear in the presence of Sir Joseph Porter who immediately orders him to his cabin. Buttercup now tells her secret and the murder is out! When she was young she mixed two children up, one a patrician and the other lowly born. The two being the captain and Ralph they now change ranks. As Sir Joseph will not marry the common sailor's daughter, Ralph and Josephine are left to their happiness and all's well that end's well.

ooooooooov 4ooooooooooooooooooooooooo We have put this heading here so that you will know that these are jokes and that they are supposed to be funny. Do your duty by the Senior class by trying hard to laugh at them. ' Here's the first one. Naturally Mr. Ferguson in History class, Coratori- callyj And now we come to General Starke. He was a great man. His wife was a great woman, too. By what name is she known in history, Donald ? Pawnee Joe-- Mrs, Starke. Found in a Senior girls Physics Note Book-Question No. 17: What is the result when an irresistable force is applied to an immovable object? Answer unknown. A Great Demand. One Saturday morning as Mr. Parker was working very hard painting, he became very hungry and desired one of the doughnuts from the girl's pastry sale up town. As 'Doc.' Delp came along, he inquired of him whether he knew the price of the doughnuts. Three cents each, was the reply. Mr. Parker gave him six cents and told him to get him one and to get himself one with the other three cents. In a little bit, Doc came moseying back munching a dough- nut and as he handed back three coppers, he remarked, Sorry, Mr. Parker, but there was only one left. THE PYTHON '21 Je- Q. Another good one is told of Mr. Parker when he was painting a church. He was whistling a lively jazz tune and keeping time with his brush, when one of the trustees of the church came in. You shouldn't whistle in church, Par- ker, he said. I can work better while Whistling, he said. Then whistle some other tune. Mr. Parker promptly began whistling Nearer My God to Thee and also keeping ooooooooooooaooaooooovoooo time with his brush. The trustee, noticing the diminished speed, immediately said, Whistle the other tune, Parker. ........-......................... Miss Perkins, 15th grade teacherj- Rip Van Winkle went into the mountains, drank with some strange people and soon fell asleep and slept for 20 years. Carl Hand- Well, I don't doubt it, there's no tellin' what this moonshine licker will do to a fellow. The fair Junior, Eleanor Delp, had a lover in Gary who had joined the navy and was going to leave soon. She was much worried about him and so she sent a note to the minister to be read at church that ran thus: A man going to sea, his sweetheart desires the prayers of the congregation. The good man made a mistake and read it this way: A man going to see his sweetheart desires the prayers of the congregation. Little Polly Pritsch Fell in at ditch And cooled her pretty toes. Her mother came and caught her And whipped her little daughter For spoiling her nice new clothes. When Rev. Powell was making his first call on Mr. Ferguson, he, trying to be friend- lv. said to little Billy, How old are you, my little man ? I am five at home, six at school and three on the railroad trains, was the prompt re- ply!! oooononuoaaeoooooooo Page Fifty-four
