Bessie Parsons on receiving her high school diploma will depart immedi- ately for South Africa, where she will engage in scientific research, in quest of a certain plant that will keep mosquitoes away from Harbor View Court. Bertha Elizabeth Sanders and Miss Una Saunders, at the close of the high school year, will make an extended tour of the world. On their way home through China they will be so infatuated with the place that they will decide to make it their home and spend the rest of their lives there in unbroken in- dolence. Nettie Mae Terry, whose desire for exploring can never be suppressed, will make extensive preparations for a ten year Arctic Sea trip. She will finally reach the north pole, in which she will burn her name and the names of all the members of ’01. As the last roll was opened, I suddenly awoke and found myself lying on the sand. The sun had long since sunk below the horizon and the stars be- gan to twinkle as I slowly wended my way homeward thinking of the glo- rious future of the class of 1901. C. Knight, ’01. Joys of Summer Weather. I roam through the fields in the bright summer weather, And sit ’neath the shade of the tall willow-tree; I dance with glad feet o’er the sweet-smelling clover, And rest on the shores of the beautiful sea. I love the blue sky with its fleecy clouds sailing. In fancy I live in the castles above ; I dwell in the heavens with joy never failing, And fill all my life with a sweet pure love. Eotta D. Jones, ’01. 28

An Ode to the Unknown OLDER ! Tin Cans ! red hot fun ! Ammonia, Ammonia, Nineteen One!” What does this mean ? Don’t ask me. Ask the four D’s. P’rhaps you’ll see. Why did Mr. Whitman cry ? Ask him, course he’ll tell you why. N H 3 with pressure great, Sends forth fumes which we all hate. What does Solder! Tin Cans! mean? Well, we mustn’t seem too green. Someone money had to pay, v For, N H 3 is fun they say ; Still that someone only smiled ; Soon he seemed quite reconciled. For, his bright companions four, We surmise the losses bore. Mention to them N H3, Smiles come, broad as broad can be. If you’d the solution get Of this queer mysterious set, And the sins it has committed, Ask, if you may be permitted. Hand and heart join to protect The Ammonia Quartette. M. D. H. ’01. 30
