RAREBITS 53 An flbhe tn 111A Once upon a time in Form III A Eight and thirty pupils held their sway, Many of these pupils, who had brains galore, Often stayed in, just to study, hours after four. By other big debaters held in very great esteem, VVho envied all their eloquence and wished that they could dream Of speaking with such genius when talking on the floor, But oratory seemed to be behind the III A door. Many are the deeds of might that we could relate, But we would rather ask some questions before it is too late, We'd like to know why Henry rises from his chair To answer the door when no one is there. We would like to ask a question of Wesley Coombe, Wwhat interests him at the back of the room? And we'd like to ask Bill, in a casual way, Why he wasn't late the other day? We'd like to ask Mary in tones profound Whom does she see when she turns around? There are many other questions that we'd like to ask, But time grows short and it's quite a task . To get things to rhyme in this lyric tale. It's enough to make a strong man quail. But before we're off we'd like to say That the Best in the School is Form III A. An Arahemir Zlgrir If you can follow indices and squares of perfect cubes, And florence flasks, and know the tense of exceptions to the rule, In French or Latin you, my son, Will get on well at school. If you can juggle History dates and memory work with ease, If you can write a ten mile comp. on How to stop a sneeze. In theorems of geometry if you can lead the class, And write when others stop perplexed, You'll pass, my boy, you'll pass. v - 11135 ifivuirw A gvl Editor-Alice Barrett. 11 1 E Starz This year has been one of the finest in the records of III B, It has now one of the finest groups of boys and girls. The sports on track and field this year were upheld by Cooper, Ferry, and Weaver, representing the boys, and Helen Lapington, the girls. Our stars on the basketball team were Helen, Alice and Weaver. Commencement proved a great suc- cess this year, Now why was that? We can tell you. The soprano and bass voices of the III B. German class swelled the assembly hall with the sweetness of their voices. In the plays we had starring Pauline Tan- cock and Alice Barrett. The pirate dance brought loud applause and an encore from the thrilled audience.

52 R A R E B I T S Zlinnrth ilinrm lgrnpherg For I looked into the future, far las human eye could see, And I caught a glimpse of Fourth Form as it years from now may be. Gaps there are among the ranks, faces that one does not know Yet without a prophet's vision, one can see how some winds blow. Black eyes snapping, white teeth flashing, naughty curls pinned back with care- Can't you see our Phyllis sitting as a prim, stern teacher there? Stooped and serious, learned professor with an absent-minded stare, Why, that's Lambshead, late of Fourth Form, but just see his thinning hair! Coat of blue with braid and buttons, cap that's worn with jaunty air, Yes, it's Brooks, can you believe it? Captain of H.M.S. Dare. Slow of walk and stout of figure, forehead grooved with lines of care, Harry Allen once wrote essays that the Lions thought quite fair. How they flock to see his picture! Question him in curious bands! Is that Leighton's halting query? Madam, I donit understand. Blue-eyed gaze and dainty swish 5 white-starched skirts and there she stands! Say it low-Grace once forgot and held too long a patient's hand. Famous scientist to lecture-Harshaw translates unknown tongue- Well he might! Did he not write one Hin the days when he was young? Leading diplomat to China-suave, convincing, genial laugh- Jim will surely bluff the Chinese. Why, he almost bluffed the Staff! Manning is the coming poet-writes free verses by the day. But 'tis whispered that his last ones were so free they ran away. In her ears, the diamonds gleaming, on her shoulders, costly furs, Helen sports her second husband, plans a third if he demurs. Now the veil descends before meg deep into the mist I peer, But no longer through a vista may I glimpse the coming years. So I close my Fourth Form forecast with a wish sincere and true- Best of luck to future Fourth Forms is the thought I leave with you. 111 A Hnlran Editor-Jean Bell ilinrm News A member of our form, Patricia Middleton, distinguished herself on the field of sport by winning the girls' juvenile medal on Field Day. The Middle and Upper School De- bating Shield was won this year by Form IIIA owing to the hard work of Peggy Dewhurst and Henry At- kinson. Uhr Behate B. Statham, III A. There was a boy named Atkinson Who deserves undying praise, The school he did amaze With his oratorical power. When he stood upon his feet Form V suffered a defeat. But Peggy, with her tart remarks, Helped Henry out in no small part, Her sarcasm was plain to see, But she proved her points most clev- erly. Many were surprised, they say, That Osler did not start to pray. Nina was a bit confused Just why tabloids should be used. Despite their efforts on the field, Form III took away the shield.
