Class History Should }-ou ask nie whence these Seniors. Whence these bhibbering youths and maidens. With their wild and foolish notions. And their heads held toward the heavens. Heads of nonsense and of scheming, I should answer, I should tell you. No one knows or ever will know. Cause they won ' t own where the ' came from. Where ttiey ' re going when they ' re thru here. Now, I hardh scarcely dare say From the tongue of Jennie Houchins, Jennie Houchins, the truth twister. Should you ask where Jennie Houchins Heard such things about her class mates. Heard such rumors and such gossip. I should answer, I should tell you That I oft have seen her nosing- Round in other people ' s business. First she told of how school opened In the year nineteen and seven. How we students, green and gawky ' Came and stood about the buildings Waiting to display our knowledge. Knowledge teachers told us later Wasn ' t anything but hodge-podge. Some wished first to take a review Something easy, and not work much. But at length they grew still bolder. W orked still harder, had less play time. Quit their course in campus duets, Tennis courts became back numbers. Penmanship they took like heroes. Problems too, they solved at midnight. Helped along by midnight lunches Till at last they cried Eureka , We will get us now a Four Year. We are tired of all things common ; We must have a taste of Latin. So they got them each a pony. Got a pony at the book-store, Not the kind that carried Red Wing. Thus they safely rode through Caesar Rode through Cicero, through Virgil. Though some ponies threw their riders Others, braver, came and mounted. Then they tackled Mathematics ; Tackled Trig and all the others. With wry faces choked down Shakespeare. Learned to say have saw and I seen . Learned to say all things what ' s proper. Learned to make a speech in chapel.
