SO THE GIRTONIAN Abigail Von Schlegell PROSECUTOR-It seems 'twere but a month ago That Abby joined our class, So happy has she made us all, That merry, littleC?D lass, Her laughter, cleverness and Wit Add much to Girton School, And tho not good, yet she's not bad, And ne'er would break a rule. She really does not study much- She likes good times the best, And as for teas and balls and such She there can stand the test. And so along the old North Shore Good times she,ll make complete, And add to parties and to balls By her own presence sweet. Dorcus Orme Hoge The PRosEcUToR says: The When Dorcas had scarce passed her third glad year And her young artless words began to How, Her parents gave the child a mem'ry book, Her own, wherein she might go paste and show By note or trophy all her daily life.

Marian Ruth Smith Now scarce these words have left their lips, when thro the pressing throng A maiden with a gentle frown the straight aisle moves along. The Prosecutor glares at her and speaks in angry tone: And now, pray tell, O Marian, the cause, if it is known, Why you do always look so sad! Has your last friend been lost? For pity's sake be kind to us, and smile at any cost!', Then forth there breaks upon her face a smile that lights the hall, It seems as tho a thousand lamps do shine upon the wall. The Prosecutor's troubled face grows mellow in its glow, The Judges' gleam and ever seem more friendly yet to grow. The Genius speaks Cand rubs his handsj Her smile is her defense! So now but say, your Honors, pray, what shall she do from hence?', An inspiration strikes a Judge, he gives a wise decree: She shall go forth, from South to North, a Nursing Sister she.
