“A Freshman” The days were passing gay and fast. When through the college course there passed, A maid who bore with laughs and jeers A name that of’t had caused her tears, A Freshman. But on beyond she saw a light. Ambition’s star gleamed warm and bright. A tear stands in her bright blue eye. And she softly whispers I cannot die, A Freshman. And in the future cold and gray, The voice of hope she of’t heard say. Climb on, Oh! maid, till you reach the top. And the maid climbed on, she did not stop. A Freshman. T. Y., ’22. Colors: Baby Pink and Green. Motto: “Never Too Green to Pick.” Floiver : Sweet Pea. Page iwentxj-nme

Sophomore Poem and Sayings ’Twas long ago, so long ago. When the earth was young, my child, And everyone was gay, you know. And not a soul was sad. ’Twas long before Pandora’s box — (Oh! she was a naughty child), E’re had broken its trusty locks And Trouble came to earth. There were pigmies small, and giants great. And all queer kind of folk. When Father Time wooed Mother Fate, (For then their years were few). Now Mother Fate’s a fickle dame, And Father Time a dandy true. A flirt is she the very same As every girl, you know. To all the offers that he could make She gave the arch reply, “From the vastness of your store I take The best that you can give.” I’ve looked and found in the Future’s glass The classes of Hillman College, And from all the Stute I chose the class Of Nineteen-Twenty-One.’ “X.” Hugh Ella — “Howdy, Ape.” Agnes — “Hello! Sweetness.” Della Mae — “Oh! 1 don’t know.” Norma — “Let me tell that.” Beth — “I’ll tell you, honey.’ Marion— “Huh.” Page n en p -eight
