FOREWORD Go, little Book, And seek a nook In every genial heart! The H. S. C. Has fashioned thee And made thee what thou art. And every page Of versilage, Quip, sketch and merry jest We’ve culled with care, That debonair; And bright thou should be drest. And as we wrought, We likewise sought To see thy pages bore No rhyme or skit That was not writ Save by C. H. S. “Corps. If here we erred, Be it inferred ’Twas done with no intent; Work by the “Corps,” And nothing more, Our aim ’tis to present. Many a laugh And genial chaff Within thee will be found; No malice lurks Within thy quirks, Naught tedious or profound. So, little Book, Go find a nook In every genial heart! OUR labor’s done— THINE has begun, And thou must do thy part. —Messecar.

CLARK Latin and English ELSIE L. BARNES Commercial TO THE SENIOR CLASS OF 1920 You have all, no doubt, long- looked forward to these clos- ing days of your High School work—the end of school days, but the beginning- of the broader life. You have been building your world from within and the result of the building has been determined by the point of view of each builder. Within yourself lies the cause of whatever enters into your life, and for you to come into the full realiza- tion of your own awakened mental powers, is for you to be able to adjust your life in exact accord with what you would have it. As science is so abundantly demonstrating today—the things that we see are but a very small fraction of the things that are. The real vital forces at work in your own lives and in the world about you are not seen by the ordinary physical eye, although they are the causes of which all things we see, are the effects. For one to govern his thinking then is to determine his. life. The definite object of the school has been to cultivate your whole personality and in attempting this it has pursued two lines of effort—culture by means of text books, and culture Outside of text books. Many students forget, as do many parents, that all ideals in- culcated, all powers developed, in a few hours of daily study, may be rendered absolutely ineffective by influence at work throughout the remainder of the twenty-four hours of the day. It is with all sincerity and with a great deal of pride that I say this is not true of any one of your number. I trust that you do not cherish the thought of having com- pleted your education and may it be hoped that you have re- ceived all the inspiration and cultural training that your school course is supposed to have furnished. It has been your privilege and your duty to acquire the elements that contribute toward life in its fullest measure. I pray you. then, to do the things, and seek the places, and think the thoughts, and expose yourself to all the influences during the years to come that will best renew and add to your stock of hone and youthfulness; that will best make all the troubles which infest the student’s day to fold their tents like the Arab and silently steal away. We are glad that you have been with us, and hope you will ever retain pleasant recollections of your High School days. Very truly yours, GERALD E. POWERS, Superintendent.

What we do not know or want to forget about our history would fill a volume, but what we know and want to tell will not take long to read. We remember vaguely that we must have entered school in September, 1916, with about sixty members. The first day we simply wandered around with now and then some teacher makjng an attempt to help us. However, we got along as well as the average Freshmen do. Fortune favored us for Mr. Galbraith became our chaperon and his assistance in our class activities, escepially the programs, was invaluable. At the end of the first semester Mr. Powers announced that to our class came the honor of having the highest average, which distinction we appreciated so much that we were successful in holding it throughout our high school career except for one half term. Our members have been prominent in all the sports, and we have had representa- tives on both the boys’ and girls’ teams. Our social activities were the functions of the year, as many who were not Freshmen attempted to join with us in our merry-making. Success was ours against the Sophomores but difficulties were encountered with the Jun- iors and Seniors. At one time we were compelled to sneak home from a marshmallow roast under the protecting wing of Mr. Galbraith, and only the strong fortification provided by having a party in the schoolhouse succeeded in keeping the burglars at bay and protecting our eats. When we dispersed they tried to capture one of our members but the trail ended at a barn some distance from the schoolhouse and, aside from a scare, no particular damage was done. Our Sophomore yer found us with only forty-two members, Mr. Galbraith as chaperon and our scholarly reputation. The social side was rather neglect- ed as we had only one or two parties at the schoolhouse and instead of a sleigh ride we enjoyed the worst storm of the season. This year eleven of our members dropped out but we still held our place in athletics. I he most in- teresting event of the year was the flag rush held back of the school building, the Sophomores and Seniors winning from the Juniors and Freshmen. Haz- ing was done away with and the year finished in peace. We started our Junior year with just thirty members although three new ones had entered our midst. Miss Wixon was appointed our chaperon. This year two of our more ambitious classmates joined the Senior class, thus grad- uating one year in advance. Cupid captured two of our members while others had narrow escapes. Social events were more numerous than heretofore. The Juniors entertained the Seniors and they complimented us by giving us one in return. The year closed with the customary Junior-Senior banquet, which was a great success. With the coming of our Senior year all hopes of having the largest grad- uating class from C. H. S. were shattered as our members dwindled to twenty-eight, which was the number of the previous class although there never was a larger one. Mr. Snelenberger was appointed our class chaperon and social activities started with a rush. The first week we had two parties and others have come at regular intervals. For the first time none of our members have dropped out and, although the work has been broken up to some extent, we have progressed very well. Our greatest undertakings were our year book and the play, both of which we hope you will enjoy. Our class meetings were nearly as distinguished as our parties; their chief character- istics being lack of parliamentary rules, determination of Bud to leave before dismissal, and the hum coming from Vida’s and Nellie’s direction which drowned Elmer’s voice. The history of this year is necessarily incomplete but our hope is that the rest of our lives will be as happy and as successful as the four years spent in Croswell High School. ct Kenneth Laidlaw Dean Lawrence MarguerikKoshi Milton Middle Ion Gladys Mikhel] Ila Me CleJlan Raymond Humphrie Blanche Odium Edylh Garbutt John Francis Leona Coon Augusta Sturtnd e Leona Wellman Fred Kirkbride Archie Mathews Rulh Watson Harold Dawson Kathleen Mahon lord.

JUNIOR Officers Blanche Odium, President Marguerite Frostick, Secretary Augusta Sturtridge, Vice President Dean Lawrence, Treasurer Class Emblem: Class Colors: Oak Leaves and Sweet Peas. Blue and Gold. On September 2nd, thirty-five jolly juniors assembled at the schoolhouse for enrollment. Then followed exciting- days of welcome talk, little “aside tete-a-tetes,” and a profuse number of gum wrap- pers. A week thus passed when all settled down to real business, in- cluding a rule for less gum indications. For real industry look to “We and Company.” One of the several big features of the year was a Junior mas- querade party. Brilliant costumes, dancing, games, punch and wafers composing the program. Friday morning programs were begun with zest and rivalry. The upper classmen put us beneath the cold and unappreciative sod. but we simultaneously arose in garments of blue and black through the untiring efforts of a spiritual revival meeting. Can’t say much about our Senior year, but just watch and wait; you will soon find out. CLASS SONG—BLUE AND GOLD We know of a spot in Croswell Where waves the pure Blue and the Gold O’er hearts that are as true and as loyal As the hero in the story of old. They sing the hours of their leisure: They work in the hours they should work; And find all the sweeter their pleasure For duties they never will shirk. Chorus: Three cheers for the Blue and the Gold! Three cheers for the Blue and the Gold! For Croswell we’ll yell now and ever; Three cheers for the Blue and the Gold! AUGUSTA STURTRIDGE.

Everyone went for a good time and they all had it. After the roast some went in swimming while others played games on the beach. Although Dick only had part of his bathing suit, he went in swimming just the same. For the next week all the seniors talked about was what a good time they had at that party. The next party was given by the Juniors. Under the direction of Mr. Martin they planned a party for the benefit of the high school. The pupils were divided into several different families having a boy and a girl at the head of each. All the teachers were present under the name of Hammerheads. Everyone was to meet at the school house promptly at 7 o’clock, all masked but wearing some symbol to tell to which family they belonged. From there we marched down the main street to the Arcadia where the party was held. Each family had to entertain for five minutes. After this entertainment, those who wish- ed to dance went to one end of the hall and the rest went to the other, where they were playing games. At twelve o’clock they served a light lunch and a little later the party broke up. It was a complete success and we all have to thank the Juniors for showing us such a good time. The first Basket Ball game of the season was played at Bad Axe, after which they entertained the visiting teams with a dance and light lunch. Orders were out for a removal for home by the next morning train. Due to weather as well as other forecasts, some of the people decided to show the P. M. railway institution that they too could delay. Without due consideration, however, the vehicle of locomotion m'wed on taking with it all of the girls but two, a.nd the coaches. The stranded ones in Bad Axe were treated very cordially and managed to make the afternoon train, which, a little confused bv the clouds of snow and the hilarity of the passengers, made the mistake of arriv- ing in Croswell Sunday afternoon instead of the scheduled day. Op Friday evening, November 5, the Sophomore class gave a masquerade party for the Freshmen. At eight o’clock policemen, clowns, tramps, soldiers, hooded terrors and negroes were assembled ,t the High School. The usual stunts with games and dancing kept the assortment of merry-makers busy, and after lunch was served the delightful evening ended. The High School celebrated by a regular Christmas party as well as a program. Santa Claus distributed presents to everyone, and Dean Lawrence got at least a dozen doughnuts. Each teacher was given a box of candy by the school just to keep them in good humor for the coming year. Inter class social affairs were laid aside during- the Basket Ball season, and after all games played on the home floor entertainment of some kind was given. When Cass City’s representatives came, a nrogram party was. given in the Arcadia, which went off especially well. A valentine program party was planned for the Bad Axe vis- itors but owing to a postponement of the game the entertainment took on its ordinary aspect, and when our worthy opponents did come a general get-together was held in the High School building. The school building proved to be a meeting place of goodfellowship after several games but when the Sandusky girls came a trip to Snelling’s ended the evening, for school was on the next day’s, program. The only sleighride party of the winter was one given at the Galbraith home, consisting of a number from all the classes. It was a great night, and though some fell in and some fell out none were entirely lost. The disappearance of some food materials is a mystery yet unsolved, but a grand time must have been the result judging from the length of time consumed during the night. A play at the Majestic theater in Port Huron was the next call to the Seniors, so two loads left Croswell about 6:30, in time for the evening’s performance in the noted city. After the show the bunch nearly overwhelmed the hosts at the Chop Suey, but eats were very much required before undertaking the homeward trip. The Seniors are ready for another such expedition.

POETRY and DRAMATIC High School Anthem Rally round ye loyal classmates, Loudly let your voices ring, Loudly praise your Alma Mater, ’Tis for Croswell that we sing'. Always first in deeds of courage, Are her men in every game; See them sweep the field Never known to yield, Making greater our high school fame. (Chorus,) White and Blue we hail thee, Ever our colors true; Oh, see our colors that stand for honor, And to us victory bring. Rah! White and Blue forever; Glory for every man. On field or in hall, We will answer the call, For we love thee, dear C. H. S. Ever true our sons and daughters Scattered far throughout the land, By one faith and love united, As one mighty band we stand. And in every care and sorrow May we sometimes thing of thee. Strong our hearts once more, As in days of yore. As we sing of our loyalty. (Chorus,) “Mv daughter,” and his voice was stern, ‘‘We must set this matter right; What time did that Junior leave Who sent in his card last night?” “His work was pressing, Father dear, And he could not stay up late; So he took his leave and went away, Before a quarter of eight.” Then a twinkle came to her bright blue eyes, And her dimple deeper grew; “ Tis surely no sin to tell him that For a quarter of eight is two.” A SENIOR’S VISION I see them as they rise before me— The dreams of my life to be, As I sit in the old assembly At exactly a quarter of three. Will I be a great discoverer Who finds lands of silver and gold; Or just an everyday digger With part of life’s burden to hold. Will I be a Washington, a Lincoln, A Roosevelt or Pershing too? Will my name go down in history For my children’s children to view? Or will my fame go with me When my part on this earth is done. A life who may not be remembered: Whose glory had never begun? Will I journey to foreign countries, To China, Japan or Peru, Or live in the land of the fir trees? I don’t know—do you? I feel a lump in my throat, friends. As I sit dreaming mv time away. For who knows what Old Father Time son In these years of the battle’s fray? I probably will not be famous, I may even not steer quite right; But I hope t’will not be worthless When I’ve finished my bit in the fight. I feel that I shall be forgotten By the great in life’s rough way; But Oh! If I can only reach outward And greet a Senior chum in the fray. C. H. S. PENCIL I know not where thou art. I only know that thou wert on my desk Peaceful and contented—a moment back. And as I turned my head Some heartless wretch Went south with thee; I know not who he was, Nor shall I investigate, Perchance it may have been The guy I stole thee from. A MEMORY OF HIGH SCHOOL DAYS We hope Alumnus in Se Aitch Es, A memory to recall Of years of youth and high school life, The happiest and sweetest of all. We want you to see each one Of the days which have gone past, Filled so full of joy and fun; But Oh! Which fled so fast. Remember your grand ideals, Your castles built in air; Forgotten now in the battle Of greed and wear and tear. Perhaps you’ve grown weary, Your ideals not quite so fine, The way seems rough and dreary— A dark, uneven line. But always in the years to come, No matter what trouble and pain: A ray of light, a dream of bliss, Your high school days remain. Then throw off your care and sorrow, Dream of those days again. Go back into fighting tomorrow A stronger and happier man. FAREWELL TO C. H. S. There’s a feelin’ comes a stealin’ Right into my heart, When I think that tomorrow We old friends must part. Seems as if it can’t be true That four long years have passed: Seems as if I ought to be a freshie They have gone so fast. Four long years of pleasure; Spells of violent work; Within these halls of learnin’ Where ghosts of glory lurk. We’ve helped to win some banners And we’ve done our little bit, If we were not always winners, We sure did use our grit! Our men were on the team A year or so ago, When we licked the whole darn Thumb By just not-being slow. But now these things are over And tomorrow we must part With heaps of knowledge, joy and sadness The game of life to start. “BACK TO THE FARM” “Back to the Farm” is a royalty play and was written under the direction of the University of Minnesota. It’s purpose is two-fold; it brings out the great need of a more thorough preparation to meet the ever increasing: problems on the farms of today; and it also en- courages a better understanding- of such conditions among- those who are not directly connected with the farm. Charles Merill refuses to send his son Merton through the agri- cultural college and, angry at his son’s persistent efforts, orders him to “get out and get out for good.” A few years later the scene opens on the closing of Merton’s col- lege career. The lawyer and earlier friend discloses to the son condi- tions back on the farm. Unwise speculations and ignorance of the best farming methods had sent the farm into the hands of real estate people. Merton stops the foreclosure. At this point Mrs. Merill ap- pears and persuades her son to return to his much needed place on the farm. The third scene finds a much rejuvenated farm. The father and mother, even to the renovated Gus, happy in the new conditions grant every request. The play ends as all plays should—-our successful hero’s efforts are repaid by winning the affections of Rose, the former school teacher.

ALL-OF-A-SUDDEN PEGGY” This comedy, written by Ernest Denny, was originally produced at the Duke of York’s theater, London, by Charles Frohman with a cast including such players as Mr. Gerald du Maurier, Miss Marie Tempest, Mr. Alfred Bishop, Miss Beatrice Beckley, Mr. Frank Gil- more, Miss Henrietta Crosman and Miss Jane Marbury. A year later it was presented at the Bijou theater, New York. It has become so popular that within the last four months it has been photographed by one of the largest film corporations in America, and has just been released. This is the heaviest royalty play that has ever been pre- sented by the High School or any dramatic society in the city. CAST OF CHARACTERS Anthony, Lord Crackenthorpe................. The Hon.

They not only develop the physical and moral side of life, and teach the student to be attentive and accurate in all work, but they arouse an enthusiastic spirit and common interest among the students, that otherwise would be lacking. Clean athletics are an uplifting element to the standard of any school. C. H. S. teams have won distinction by their excellent showing at state meets and tournaments, in former years and recently. Our athletic activities have not been confined to one sport alone, but strong teams have been developed in all branches. This year’s teams so far developed are accounted to have had successful seasons in comparison with other years. Much credit is due Mr. Snelenberger for his persistent work at coaching and train- ing. BOYS’ TRACK Croswell’s track record dates back to the year 1911 when second place was won in the state meet. Since then the Thumb and county championships were won for four consecutive years. Following this C. H. S. didn’t place in a meet until 1919 when the countv championship was won and second place was taken in the Thumb meet. The outlook for this year is perhaps as good as any other season, and though diligent training a winning team may again be developed. GIRLS’ TRACK C. H. S. girls were not very successful the first couple of years they took part in the county meets, but in 1918, they took third place; San- dusky running off with both the medal and the banner, while Marlette took second. In 1919 they worked harder while practicing and took the banner with flying colors, the gold medal and two others being won by them. Marlette again took second and Brown City third, leaving Sandusky entirely out of it. The girls have only four things in which to compete; these being: Fifty yard dash. Ball throw. Eight pound shot put. Two hundred yard relay. With hard steady practice they have excellent chances to again win the county championship. This branch of athletics has not been long- in C. H. S., this being the fifth year for the sport. The teams of the first three years were comparatively suc- cessful, but not until the last two seasons, those of 1918 and 1919, have teams been developed that are worthy of any special mention. In the 1918 season C. H. S. gridders won the Thumb championship. The 1919 squad was composed of experienced players and was led by an ex- cellent coach. This season the Thumb title was claimed by Croswell who won both games played in the district, the others having been forfeited. In the first game, which was played at Sandusky, the White and Blue eas- ily took a victory by the score of 38 to 7. The next game, at Brown City, was more sharply contested but the wearers of the White and Blue fought hard to uphold the honor of C. H. S. and scored another victory, the score being 20 to 0. In the last game, played at St. Clair, the team was considerably weakened by the loss of Green, the star quarterback. Nevertheless the old fighting spirit still remained, and C. H. S. won a rather loosely played game by the score of 21 to 19. The line-up is as follows: Wedge .....................................R. E. Gofton, C...................................R. T.

In speaking of the team no special credit can be given any one member but through the united efforts of the entire squad and the excellent work of Coach Snelenberger a team was developed that closely rivals any ever representing C. H. S. The season was opened at Bad Axe. In this game the team seemed unable to get together, and were forced to accept a 24 to 11 defeat. The next game was played at home with the Port Huron Y. M. C. A. In this game no diffi- culties were encountered and C. H. S. won an overwhelming victory. The next game was held at home with our old rival, Cass City. This team held the northern and central state championship in the 1919 season. In this battle fans witnessed one of the hardest fought basket ball games ever held in Croswell. By playing a whirl-wind game C. H. S. defeated their opponents by the score of 41 to 24. In the next game we again encountered defeat. This was played at Ma- rine City with the American Legion Post of tha,t place, the score being 32 to 26. The next two games were played at home; Bad Axe and the Marine City Amer- ican Legion Post were defeated by the scores of 64 to 12 and 56 to 21. As the home schedule was ended, the team went to the state tournament at Mt. Pleasant. Unsuccessful in the first game we entered the consolation series and defeated Bad Axe, Arcadia and Alma in succession. In the final game with Mt.

The first team was organized in T6 and T7, but was successful only in getting the spirit started. The following year we had no team as a hall was not available. However last year, 1918 and T9, the ball was started rolling by winning the Thumb championship. This team was composed of some of the best girl basket ball tossers, and most remained for another year. This year the team was somewhat handicapped in their first game by the center being unable to play, and was defeated by the tight score of 21 and 19. After this the players seemed to have hit their stride and Cass City, Sandusky and Bad Axe were defeated with comparative ease. However, in their last game with Brown City, at Brown City, they were defeated by a small score. The line-up is as follows: Jean Wright ...............................L. F. Iris Carney ...............................R. F. Gladys Mitchell ............................. C. Bernice Learmont ..........................L. G. Alta Reynolds .............................R. C. Estella Decker ............................R. G. Substitutes. Ruth Watson, Blanche Odium, Christine Decker, BASE BALL C. H. S. first came into base ball prominence in the season of 1919 when the county and Thumb championships were won. Success was due in a large measure to the excellent pitching staff and the heavy hitting of the team. Carl Morris, who pitched most of the games, can easily be rated among the best high school pitchers of the state. Out of the season’s schedule nine games were played and all were won. Teams played outside the league were Poi’t Huron and Sarnia hig'h schools. Although we are without several of last season’s best players, the pros- pects for a winning team this year are very good. Some new men are show- ing excellent caliber. Cutler, a pitcher of no small ability in the 1919 season, will perhaps do most of the hurling for the 1920 team. The season opened with Port Huron at Croswell. This game was a very poor exhibition of base ball, neither team playing up to the usual standard. Through the excellent work of the battery, and the heavy hitting of the team, the resulting score, 16 to 11, was in our favor. The line-up is as follows: Edgar, captain ..........................Catcher. West .............................First Baseman Cutler ................................. Pitcher Lawrence ........................Second Baseman Murray ...........................Third Baseman. Stirling ............................Short Stop. Riley .............................Right Fielder. Matthews .........................Center Fielder. Gardner ............................Left Fielder. Gofton, Wedge, Wagner ....................Subs. FUNERAL OE THE JUNIORS There was weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth, As we heard the slow tread of burdened feet; We wondered and wondered and our curiosity grew Till we could hardly sit still with nary a clue. Slower and slower through the hall they came With their measured tread always the same. Then through the east door came the strangest procession Headed by a man of preacher profession. Behind him a lad with Webster on his back Not a single thing did they lack; Then next in the long dreary line Was a casket covered with black crimoline. Then couple by couple with their heads bent low The Seniors all followed respectfully slow. They cried and they sobbed in the greatest of grief And their groaning and wailing was not very brief. The preacher on the platform took his place And preached the funeral sermon in silent grace; He pointed to the casket with a serious frown And then very insistently pointed down. Till he came to the words and the proper place He repeated his text with the solemnest face, “Ashes to ashes and dust to dust, If the Seniors don’t get you the Sophomores must.’’ The preacher now folded backward the cover And the weeping procession going out bent over For one last look at their poor inferiors— The sadly dilapidated, talented Juniors.

H. S. ORCHESTRA While engaged in the community meetings for Liberty Loan drives in Oc- tober, 1918, the Croswell High School orchestra was organized. Many requests were being made for music, and ac- cordingly the interested members prac- ticed diligently twice a week. Soon the possibilities in this group became known and besides playing for the benefit of Croswell’s various functions, neighbor- ing towns asked for assistance on sev- eral programs. The first appearance was made in 1918 at the Father and Son banquet held in the Methodist church, where enthusiastic applause rewarded the efforts put forth. The Business Mens’ banquet of 1919 held in the Ar- cadia was still more of a success than the first debut into the world of enter- tainment. At Applegate and Carson- ville the merits of the Orchestra were successfully displayed a.s well as at plays and patriotic gatherings at home. That the Croswell High School Or- chestra is quite worth while has again been demonstrated this year bv the as- sistance it has rendered at the Com- munity House, at lodges, at business mens’ festivities and in the high school programs. May it be a lasting institu- tion and credit to old C. H. S.

Official Board for 1920: President—Carleton Taylor. Vice-President—Ruth Watson. Secretary—Blanche Odium. Treasurer—Eldon Graves. Mr. Snelenberger, (In American history)—“Mr. Soule, why did Roger Williams leave the Indians?” Soule—“Because they would not listen to his teachings and in the end cut off his head.” Larry—“Jack Cutler fell out of a sixth story window onto the sidewalk and never hurt himself a bit.” Bull—“He did? Impossible!” Larry—“Nothing impossible, he had on a light fall suit.” After Mr. Gofton had jumped about ten feet and landed on the floor near his seat, Graham spoke up loudly, “Are you here, Bull?” Mr. Laidlaw, in history class—“The Germans were shooting a ton.” Mr. Snelenberger—“That’s nothing, we were shooting Teutons.” (Two tons). Miss Sheldon—“How near were you to the right answer to the fifth question?” Mr. Soule—“Just three seats away.” Miss Barnes—“You people please get to work and don’t be looking up this way, for you won’t see anything here.” Gofton—“I am working harder every day to get ahead.” Miss Dunsmore—“Well, you certainly need one.” Waiter—“Order, please.” Mitts Riley, after studying the menu calendar for five minutes— “Oh, bring me a cup of coffee.” Mr. Snellenberger (In Physics class)—“What is the difference be- tween rain and dew?” Graham—“Rain is a more violent form of dew.” An indignant mother wrote the following to our latin teacher— “Dear Madam: Norma tells me that she has to study too hard. Bhe says she has to translate 50 hexameters a day. According to Webster, a hexameter is a poetic verse of six feet. Now that makes 300 feet of poetry for my child to translate a day. I think that half a hex- ameter, or six inches, of this latin is enough for a girl of her age.” Miss Clark—“What part of speech is ‘woman?’” Dicky—“All of it.” Lost—A latin book, by a freshman with a torn back and appen- dix covered with ink. Dean L.—“I would kiss you if we weren’t in the canoe.” Stella—“Sir, take me ashore immediately.” Father—“What is your favorite hymn, my child?” Vernice A.—“The one you chased through the back alley last night.” We are told that General Sherman was always coolest when on the point of attack. Most men are hottest when on the point of a tack. Graham—“I asked if I could see her home.” Stirling-—“What did she say?” Graham—“She said that she would send me a picture of it.” Brighton, a second lieutenant in the recent world war, who was somewhat deafened and rather fond of French wine, was passing- a hut where some officers were holding a prayer meeting. “Will you join us in prayer?” he was asked by the chaplain. “No thanks, I just had some,” replied the officer. Mr. Snelenberger—“What was the prairie schooner.” Miss Long—“A boat.” Mr. Snellenberger—“Mr. Soule, do you know anything about Ben- jamin Franklin?” Mr. Soule—“He was a printer, and went out nights after supper.” MADE UP AT LEISURE Lovell stood in the hall He did not hear the bell, But when he got to English class Miss Koepfgen gave him—an essay to write. There is a young Freshie, ’tis said, Who consists of much mettle and lead; But his mettle, alas! Consists only of brass, With three years of polish ahead. If a body sees a body Flunkin’ in a quiz, And a body help a body Is it teacher’s biz? A Freshman went to Hades To see what he could learn; They sent him back to earth again, He was too green to burn. I stole a kiss the other night. My conscience hurts alack— I think I’ll go again tonight And put the darned thing back. He was seated in the parlor And he said unto the light, “Blither you or I, old fellow,, Will be turned down tonight!” Non paratus, Freshie dixit Cum a sad and doleful look; Omne recte, professor respondit, Nihil scripsit in his book.
