CALIFORNIA I'Ne sailed the seven seas and the ocean blue, Journeyed to China, Japan, France, and Peru, And through all my years of sailing, when I shoveled coal and went a-whaling, I have never seen a land as beautiful to see, As California, the only state for me. California, the golden state, sunny and bright, The oeoole there are kind from morning to night There are trees, flowers, animals, and fish, And food which makes a delightful dish. Such is California, the state that is the best. I want California, you can have all the rest. A Leo Michelson L7 ' FOOT BALL Ring out the bells of Campanile, Swing wide the Sather Gate The Golden Bears come home from Troy With Southern scalps and tales of joy And we would celebrate: They put us on the shorter end And just begrudged a chance, Yet when the mighty tale was told The victor was the Blue and Gold, Come onl We Ugottan go and dance. . UA willing team,W they said, Nwould clay The best the nation hadgu They felt a little sorry for The size of the prospective score, And now thcy're feeling sad. So ring the Campanile bells And beat the drums of joy! The Bears are home from U. S. C., They clapped the rights of victors Upon the walls of Troy. Richard Whitmer L9

We ouiokly olotted all our fun, ind 'climbed upon the roof, A chain we dragged across the top, In windows, shouted, HToof.H Te locked the doors and tapped the panes We hooted horns, and then . The boys saw who we children were, So we let them out againq We wanted to apologise But they would not accept, I said, HThey would have done the samen Our apology was kept. Ruth Golver L9 ig-rwgfi! Fir it are .fait y THE TIGERk The tiger is an animal ' With yellow stripes and black That run around his tummy And meander o'er his back. The tiger is a feline of The pussy family, A sort of cousin of the oat CConneoted distantly.D He is a very cruel beast, His ways are fierce and grim, And We can never stroke his back, Or cu66le up to him. As tigers hunt for men, of course, It's natural that men Should hunt for tigers with a gun, And kill them now and then. Lila Aho L9

BEVHAPPY If the world seems sad and dreary, And your heart is aching too. Just hum a merry tune and don't Let all the world seem blue. Just take a cheerful skip or two, To chase away the blues. Divert your mind from troubling thoughts, And dream of hapny news, Just try to find some other soul, Who's feeling grave and sad. And try with all your utmost will, To make his laughter glad, The world does give its shares of blues, And sadness to one's life. But when you're sad, try to be glad, Don't dream of care or strife.

Just before the bell rings for you to go The teacher starts to pass them out. You wonder why she is so slow. You get so nervous you want to shout. Then she calls your name out clear, Then in your heart you begin to fear That you will not get a Uonen at all. You get so nervous you want to fall. Cecelia Mansonen L8
