THE EMERSONIAN 25 SENIORS’ FAREWELL “The time has come,” the Prexy said, “To speak of many jobs, From Hong Kong to Jamaica Plains For teachers, stars, and mobs; For teachers of the Spoken Art, Tall, short, fair, dark, and ‘bobs’.” They trotted in from Kenney’s “Tech;” They sprinted up the stair From “Hist, of Ed.” and Trippie’s “Imp. ” To get each one her share — They flocked to that keen call of jobs, The Seniors, plump and spare. The time has come indeed, they thought, (If so, they spake it not), When we must step forth from these halls Which we so long have sought, And forth to trips by trains or ships Or trolleys, we must trot. But oh, to leave this sounding hall Means leaving all that’s in it! Rehearsals, oh! and chapel cuts! Recitals every minute ! And teachers fond! and Juniors, Sophs, And Freshies, all within it! We’ve ate with them their apple pies, We’ve shared the Greasy Spoon ; With them we ran to Hood’s for lunch When class came not too soon; With them we rose at eight-thirteen, To eat the breakfast prune!
