POE TR Y' T0 .HJUNIOR Thou art the essence of encumber'd strengthg Thy tireless Willis greater than thy might, Yet such results, with time of twice the length, Should give mere mortal honor as his right. Thy life is short, else would'st thou build a worldg Thy size is to the school as star to sky, Yet patiently thou wouldst with banners furled Still Working on, e'en though fellows die, , Could mortal man so bring events to-pass, Proportion governing both size and time, ' Our wandering, earthly mind kens not- alas! -Such thoughts are written in the sands in rhyme. Thy greatness in thy smallness is so great, None but a Soph would try to imitate. CHARLES C. BY ERS. IRM HNF. I am a Freshman-clever type- Everything I see, I like. Like to see the Seniors tall- I-Iave em push me in the hall. Like see a baseball game- Like see us win the same- Like see the speakers rant- Like see the pegtop-trousers! COD Like see the maidens fair- Like see the clothes they wear Like see the track team run- Like see the cups we've won- Like to see the E's I win, For the work I do in gym- Like to see my teachers dear See what I have written here. Yours truly, -L. .HDUICE 'TO JENIORJ' Come now all ye Seniors at Central, Come hither and list to my callg Ye know ye are doomed soon forever, So sit close now,-lest my words fall. Ye know that your hours are passingg Swift speeding on fugitive wing, So hasten and list to my warning, And later then you may all sing. Soon will ye engage in the battle With bankers and Lawson in Wall street: Now gather a little bit closer, And you will never in lifetime be beat. As I see ye all list'ning intently, TITO catch my advice good and true, ie words which the wise Harum uttered: Do others before they do you. --AMELIA KELLER, '05. ' '07 I-Iail to the class' of naughty seven, The noblest of Old Central's children, The wisest, too, it has been proven- Hail, say I, to naughty seven. In all achievements, they outdo The others under White and Blue. The faculty greatly deplores The shortage of us Sophomores. Freshmen, Juniors, Seniors, even Lowly bend your heads in chagrin. Confess your pride meets such a fall, - Because the Sophs outshine you all, Now, 'tis well to make prediction, In the following manner, listen! Brethren, keep your eye-lids open, Watch the doings of naughty-seven. -GEORGE T. BINDBEUTEL.
