A certain alumni, Franklin D., comes up to school afternoons and has succeeded in winning a number of our hearts; but realizing we can’t all have him, we ask your advice. The Freshman Girls. Girls: Don’t pay any attention to this person. His chief hobby, every year, is to make a hit with the Freshmen. He really means nothing by it and is so much in the habit of doing this, he is unable to quit. Sincerely, The Editor. Dear Editor: Can you tell us how to write long, interesting letters? The Senior Girls. Girls: As I also find it difficult to write letters, I refer you to Marjorie Grate. She is able to write eight pages or more. As for what she says, it’s up to you to find out. Sincerely, The Editoi. Mr. Grate: “What is your favorite hymn, daughter?’’ Elaine G.: “The one you chased out of the yard last night.” Muriel Martin: “What would you do if you saw a woman being washed out to sea?” Jack Corbin: “I’d throw her a bar of soap.” Mary Jean: “I suppose your father will be unstrung when he hears about your ex-boyfriend?” Marjcrie G.: “Oh, no, I wired him last night.”

• • Your Flag and My Flag Your (lag and my flag, And how it floats today. In your land and my land, And half a world away; Rose red and blood red The stripes forever gleam; Snow white and soul white— The good forefather’s dream; Sky blue and true blue, With stars to gleam aright, The glorified guidon of the day, A shelter through the night. Your flag and my flag, To every star and stripe The drums beat as hearts beat. And fifers shrilly pipe! Your flag and my flag, A blessing in the sky; Your hope and my hope— It never hid a lie! Homeland and far land, And half the world around, Old Glory hears our grand salute And ripples to the sound! Your flag and my flag, And, oh, how much it holds— Your land and my land— Secure within its folds! Your heart and my heart Beat quicker at the sight; Sun kissed and wind tossed— Red and blue and white. The one flag, the great flag, The flag for me and you, Glorified all else beside— The Red and White and Blue.

The letter M. D. signifies, “mentally deficient.” Homer was not written by Homer but by another man of that name. The sun never sets on the British Empire because the British Empire is in the East and the sun sets in the West. An Indian reservation consists of a mile of land for every five square Indians. Nitre gen is not found in Ireland because it is not found in a free state. The plural of ox is oxygen. The wife of a duke is ducky. Perry S.: “Can you dig me up a girl for the next party?” Virginia L.: “Sure, but why not take a live one?” Thomas W.: “Do you know the difference between a taxi and a street car?” Marian P.: “No.” Thomas: “Great; then we’ll take a street car.” PAGE 9
