Sapiro's an actor-they say he acts wild, But he's married, poor chap, just the same. And now, we have seen what Fate has in store, For the mist has now told all she will. The veil of the Future is closed evermore-- And all is so silent and still. THE END. FRIEND Now that parting time is here, friend, And the end is near at last, Think of joyful hours you have spent, friend, Somewhere in your school-life past- Think of all the fun and pleasure, All your studies, teachers, dearg Everything that you will treasure When school friends are no longer nearg Think of things that'll bring your smiles, friend, Smiles of recollection dear, In the aftermath of life, friend, Things you've helped to happen here. With these words I've said my all, friend, All I can e'er think to say, But remember-watch your way-friend, Life's as treacherous as 'tis gay. Erma HSI IDA SAc1-is, '22 L GRAHAM, '22
