BRIMFI E L I) u i a school Humor THE FRESHMEN The Freshmen live up to their name, They're fresher than you’d dream. In fact, they are so very fresh That they’re a little green. They sit and giggle ’till the tears Run down their rosy cheeks; And on making recitations They surely make some freaks. “Katie” is a “Christian,” While “Mary likes to “Hunt,” And “Peary” is a dandy On pulling off a stunt. There are some who don’t like history, There are some who like to spell. There are some who don’t like anything, But to go outside and yell. Mildred Scott is a great runner, She’s as fleet as fifty deers, But sometimes she’ll sit and giggle ’Till she drowns herself in tears. The rest I will not speak about. They seem to have no fame, And honestly, I don’t believe They’d come in out of a rain. “CY” Miss Bibo—“What are the gastric glands?” Walter—“They are glands on each side of the mouth.” Miss Brock way—“What changes took place after the return of the Union soldiers from war?” Roger—“The soldiers came home and took off their union suits.” Miss Bibo—“What is the epiglottis?” Mary C.—“Oh! a little trap hole business that opens and shuts.” Lives of Juniors oft remind us, We can make our lives sublime; And by asking foolish questions Take up recitation time. 25
