Uhr Emu - illllinute 53211 Between nine and five minutes of YVhen everything goes pell-mell, There's a sound heard up at Hope street Known as the two minute bell. I hear in the corridor near me The patter of many feet, The sound of a door being opened, And Voices hardly called sweet. From my chair I see in the sunlight, Ascending the broad hall stairs, Still-Margaret and Tucker-ed-out Leila And Edith with Angell hair. A sudden rush from the stairway A sudden raid down thefhall g They strive through fast closed doors To enter the school-room wall. Do you think, O sad-eyed banditti, Although so near in the hall, Such a loud-ringing bell as I am, Is not a match for you all. I will keep you fast in this fortress Long after two shall you stay, For the list of heaped up latenesses Marked down for many a day. And here you should stay forever, Yes, forever and a day, Till the walls shall crumble to ruin, And moulder in dust away. 28

Although many of its first members have left, yet there are still several debaters who have plenty to say on all subjects, and in fact on any subject. The membership now numbers 34, a decrease of 11 from last year's membership. The society has debated only among its members up to the present time. Now at last the prospects for a team to debate with other schools seem bright. A team has been selected, the members of which are Harding, Stoneman, Sundlun, and Copeland alternate. It is to be hoped that by the time this is published that they will have defeated Classical or some other worthy opponent. These contests, no doubt, will raise the status of the debating society from that of a secret society to a true Hope Street Debating Society, and will increase the interest in debating.
