THE SPECTATOR 1914 Miss Bibo—“What was the reason for people rebelling against taxes, Holland?” Holland—“Because they could see the direct tax, but didn’t notice a tax of fifty cents when it was wrapped up in some imported goods.” “Robert, said the teacher, “Please read the first sentence.” A lad arose to his feet and amid a series of labored gasps breathed out: “See that horse runnin’.” “Don't forget the ‘g’, Robert,” admonished the teacher. “Gee, see that horse runnin’.” Miss Bibo—(Commercial Geography): “What is Holland chiefly noted for? Ell wood—“11 eighth and feet.” A MISTAKEN IDEA Two fun loving maidens, dear Fanny and Sue: (One had big brown eyes, the other had blue); Were seated one night by the fire’s bright glow; And talking of lovers, as girls will, you know. Said Fanny to Sue, “I’ve a secret to tell, If you'll promise me Susan, that you'll guard it well; I suppose you’ll think it horrid of me, And wonder however this thing came to be; Now bend down your head and I’ll whisper it low.” The maid’s eyes were dancing, her cheeks were aglow. “I hope you won't hate me, you poor little Fan, But I’m deeply in love with an old married man.” Young Susan sprang up, with dismay on her face; “Oh! Fannie, dear Fannie, what an awful disgrace; If this thing is true, then our friendship must end; I never can claim you again as my friend.” “Now Miss Susan Hurdle, you ought to be glad, That I’m in love, with my own darling Dad; And friends or no friends, I will love him.” cried Fan; “Although my dear Daddy’s an old married man.” “M. C.” “What did you do, James, when Edw'ard called you a liar?” asked the teacher. “I remembered what you said, that ‘a soft answer turneth away wrath.’ ” “Good. What soft answer did you make?” “Well, I hit him with a rotten tomato.” We always laugh at teacher’s jokes, No matter wdiat they be; ’Tis not because they’re funny, But because it’s policy. 86

n r r m f i r l i) If i a II 8 c n o o L I stood upon the mountain, I looked down on the plane, I saw a lot of green stuff. It looked like moving grain. I took another look, I thought it must be grass, But goodness! to my horror! It was the Freshman class. When all my thinks in vain are thunk, When all my winks in vain are wunk. What saves me from an awful flunk? My pony. Judge—“Are you married or single? Talesman—“Married three years, your Honor.” Judge—“Have you formed any opinion?” Talesman—“Not for three years.” HIGH SCHOOL NOTES (Copied from the Brimfield News in 1892) The following program will be given by the Literary Society next Friday p. m.: Organ Solo...............................................Nettie Johnson Recitation ...........................................Ollie Hockinberry Essay .....................................................Nettie Lucas Solo ........................................................Will Lamb Talk ........................................................Thad Fuchs Recitation ..................................................Villa Guyer Debate—“Resolved that country life is more desirable for boys than city. Affirmative—Blanch Pursell, Ollie Hockinberry. Negative—Thad Fuchs, Arleigh Hayes. 1900 The Seniors are following the course of nature and as the grass grows green, they follow suit. Ask Will Ibeck and Archie Bennett who brought them to school Monday afternoon. Jennie Smith, Seth Cobb and Harry Sloacum. of the Intermediate, are having the mumps. Bessie Farnum and Tom Pacey visited school Wednesday. The back seat in the second row seems to be centre of attraction for a certain young gentleman in the Freshman class. Lost or Strayed—One of our Junior boys, Atherine Keeling. Any information as to his whereabouts will be gratefully received. A United States History class, composed of three Seniors and three Freshman, has been organized. It will recite for fifteen or twenty minutes after school. An eraser and a tack caused considerable merriment and perhaps a little embarrassment to some of our pupils, Monday. Perhaps Claude Miller and Ray Clark could give some information on the matter.
