Q I -x i ' ii On Crackers HERE are two hundred seventeen different kinds of crackers including Hre crackers. There are also two classes of nut crackers. One works on the principle of a second class lever Caccording to Mr. Menkel and the other works on lunatics. Many crackers are named after famous men. The Long- fellow Flake for instance, is named after the famous author because he liked this special kind for his coffee soup every morning for breakfast. There is a lazy man's cracker. This is called cheese it or the cheese cracker. Wlith this kind it is possible to eat cheese and crackers out of one hand because they are mixed. The most popular cracker in school Qaccording to statistics furnished by Superin- tendent VValtzj is the oyster puff. They are small and a dozen or so can be carried in a boy's vest pocket or in a girl's vanity case to stave off starvation during the third period assembly. A rapid increase in the sale of crackers was noticed in California. Two safe and sane cracker experts were put on this job to find the cause for this. It was discovered that a new bird called the zryzna was being imported from Japan and eats twice as many crackers as a Poll Parrot. Kinds of crackers hated are wet ones. The horse hates the cracker on the end of a whip. VVe know of a man in Kentucky who was so dumb he ate dog biscuits for two years and thought they were crackers. My advice to all Freshmen, Sophomores, and juniors is: eat more crackers and don't stay out so late at night. P. S. Don't let Miss Lindsey iind out you have a Pony. RED IYITTERS, '26. We Footballs AM a football and a much abused one too. just when I am enjoying life to the utmost, some brute comes along and gives me a kick which I am helpless to resist. He gets a crowd of rufhans and they manhandle me by falling upon me with all their weight. I am kicked through the dust and I sometimes land in a mud puddle. All the enjoyment I get in return for my martyrlike sufferings is when I sail majestically through the air. I am the property of the Greenville High School. IVhen we come home triumphantly from a game I am proud of our boys in spite of their brutality. Sometimes after all they do me a good turng for instance-when I am weak they fill me with air and I am then ready to go on my way, playing my part in knocking out teeth and cracking ribs. joe More 106

Yes, radically wrong. jimmy McDonald had been upstairs exactly one hour which was most unusual for him as he never did believe in Wasting more than fifteen minutes on his personal appearance. It was the time of year when most young men are supposed to fall in love for at least stumble over itj, and judging by all indications, the magic season of Spring had struck a soft spot in the vital section of Jimmy's anatomy Ccommonly known as the heartj and was preparing to add one more victim to her wiles. It all happened one beautiful afternoon when Jimmy walked home from school with Lucille Wlhite, his idea of the perfect girl . Lucille was pretty, blond, and vivacious, and these together with her winning smile always won her friends wherever she went. Under the influence of those eyes jimmy had mustered enough courage to ask her for a date, and this explains why our hero was already forty-five minutes over his usual schedule completing his toilet. Poor jimmy was in a rather nervous state and was nearly dressed when to his dismay he discovered a rip in his Sunday and only presentable trousers. His mother was not home at the time so it was up to him to repair the damage or break the date. He spread the trousers on his lap and sewed the rip, but sewed them to his shirt tail and didn't know it. XYhen he went to put them on he ripped all the buttons off his only clean shirt. XYe will now charitably pass over jimmy's vocabulary as it would not look very well in print especially when he had to sew thirty minutes more before he could leave the room fully dressed. By this time it was 7:15 and jimmy was due at Lucille's at 7 230. Hurrying to the garage he got out his trusty 'ftin lizzie which he had previously washed and shined and started for the home of the perfect girl , with his heart hitting on six and the 15.2 horse power doing its upmost to hit on three. Un the way he met his chum, Bud Manning and gave him a lift Huptownn. Bud. a regular lady's man, was quite dumfounded on hearing where jimmy was bound and there upon began to render what he considered valuable advice, 'K free for nothing which he claimed was obtained first hand from past experiences. His parting words were, If you can't be good, be careful, to which sally jimmy muttered something that sounded like, 'ASo's your hairy ancestors. As he rounded the corner where Lucille lived he saw something in front of her house which caused a clammy feeling around his heart. It was a shining dark blue car which jimmy recognized at once as Percy Doolittle's new Lincoln Six. On going to the door he was cooly informed that Miss Lucille was busy and couldn't see him. XVho can adequately describe jimmy's feelings as he turned and savagely drove away in his li'l ol' Ford ? To add to his rage he had caught a glimpse of the sleek-haired sheik blissfully conversing with Lucille on-well, whatever sheiks talk about. And that is why to this day jimmy has never asked another fickle female for a date. i MORAL: Boys, beware of Springtime. Lomcrrrx LEONARD, '27, 105

A J 'Sta Q., 1 The Chief of Greenville High School's come to our town to stay, To pep up all the teachers and pupils by the way. To hunt up all their little faults, their pastimes, and their play, And tell a lot of little jokes to drive the blues away. And in the winter evenings, when the hard day's work is through, You gather in the living room with nothing much to do, You read the Chiefs of bygone years, at jokes you'll often shout, But the Annual Staff will get you if you don't watch out. 2 There was once a bunch of wise ones, who would always laugh and grin, And make fun of all the Annual Staff, and things that they put in, Then when a teacher told them they were left out fair and square, They said they'd like to see the way our Annual would compare. VVhen asked to write a poem, a story, or some fun, They simply looked disgusted and said, Ask some favored one. But they caught them in the class room and compelled them to help out, And the Annual Staff will get you if you don't watch out. 3 Once there were some grouchy folks, who wouldn't spend a dime, VVho wouldn't read the Annual, said they couldn't waste the time, It wasn't educating, and did no good at all. Such people never help a town, make Springtime seem like Fall: Didn't want a new school building, no use for a gym: Said the rough way they played foot-ball was certainly a sin. just ask them for a little help, the notion they will floutg But the Annual Staff will get them if they don't watch out. 4 Now the Big Chief's tilled with lots of things that are really nice to know You spend much money foolishly for an auto ride or show. Don't you think of all these Seniors, there is one whom you could lind, And buy a copy from him to ease his troubled mind? Or if you won't, be generous, don't knock whate're you do. Or the bunch will get their hatchets and go hunting after you. They'll find your past and present, what the trouble's all aboutg Then the Annual Staff will get you if you don't watch out.
