THE FACULTY Oh, a set of comic creatures are these very handsome teachers Whose photographs have graced the page before. And though you would not guess it, they ' re a crowd of the most blessed Men that ever left the Lethe ' s sacred shore. For the one who ' s pictured first is a gentleman who ' s versed In stones that would make a sailor blush. And he makes it fun to sit reading stupid English lit By the gusto of the fast ones he can gush. But who would have a flair for the study of the square. Were it not for the enchantment that has come From the fiery words of wrath that pursue an endless path Down the sizzling mathematics teacher ' s tongue? Surely French would be insipid it Beau Brummel didn ' t whip it Into something like a fashion show to boot. But the pleasure oi it varies when he slams the dictionaries And stamps upon the parquet with his foot. Or who would give a fig for solid or tor trig Without Krazy Kat and all his little mice.- ' Think you algebra would matter, if it were not for the patter Of the little man who fills it full of spice? If you seek procrastination, you will reach your destination In the fellow who spouts Cicero and such. But though he talk you lame, you will get there just the same, And you rather come to like him very much. Page I hirteen

A fearful castigation is the history teachers ration, So get organized or he may lose his head. And though he hates to smile, he ' s a good boy all the while Even if demerits fly like so much lead. But the man who teaches German can discourse to you on vermin, On Sanskrit, irrigation, or dead fish. In fact, what he can ' t teach is beyond the human reach; So ask him any questions that you wish. Each commercial student knows every anecdote that flows From the lips of his old master, word for word. Though their shorthand is the bunk, it ' s impossible to flunk. And a mark of less than ninety is absurd. But gymnastics is the course where the teacher is the boss. For who would tempt a Giant unto wrath? Though we usually cut. those who go do nothing but Demurely tread the straight and narrow path. So the faculty, indeed, is the students ' greatest need. And these fellows surely seem to fill the breach. For without their little lreaks who could stand the endless weeks Ot the dull and dreary classes that they teach? turteen ZJ
