Sophomore Poem The Sophomores of 1909 are the foremost class of today; We arc not as fresh as we used to be—only rather fray. We'd much ra'hcr be where we are, yott know, Than sitting in the l'reshman row. The Freshmen on their duties just begun. May think it lots of fun, Rut let us advise that as their work is done. Shall he determined whether the race is lost or won. Alas, the Juniors have had their play. And have earned their credits in an honorable way. But they long to sit in the Seniors' place. Which they hope to fill with dignity and grace. The time is swiftly drawing nigh When the Seniors, with many a sigh. Must to the old school bid farewell. Ami answer ne’er more to the call of its bell. ih.it alas for them all. for the teachers must rule. And they sav the Sophs arc the most talented class in the school. So. Freshmen, take notice' We’ve set the pace; Follow us and you’ll win at the end of the race. Of course, we don’t believe in boasting this way, Rut our good professor was heard to say Tfiat the Sophomore class of nineteen-nine Was the finest he had had for some time. Xow to our teachers give grateful thanks From the class that stands first in the ranks. May they forgive us things we've thoughtlessly done. Which to them was vexation, but to us only fun. E. W.
