MY sUBJEcTs Typing is a subject, But it's also exercise. For strengthening the fingers, It's an exellent device. History is another one, Which is not so hard to learn, But sometimes it's so boring I have to stop and yearn. French one, it is a language For the beginners to begin: It is a pretty language, And not so hard to make sink in. Next We have geometry, Boy, how you have to think! You're always proving a table Congruent to a sink! Last of all comes English, A subject of great Worth. Youfre either studying sentences Or Silas, Zeus, and Gurth. ' by Richard Tobin

MICKEY MOUSE Once there was a little mouse, Who went to school each day, He learned to fight off monsters And beat the cats away. He knew how to sing and croon, And to Serenade Minnie nights. He put Mouscland on the map, And his own name in the lights. Everyone knows this frolicking mouse Mickey is his nameg His sWeetheart's name is Minnie, Who is of equal fame. So next time you see a mouse. Look twimie before you fireg Because it may be Mickey, Or his little heart's desire. h By jo ri Colllngs
