A SPOILED CHYLDE. Whether they should give a party Where they all should find amusement, Give the Juniors a reception. As the ancient custom bade them. But, alas they lacked the silver, And in the wigwam of their treasure Could not find enough of wampum To fit out a single party. And that next year’s June may find us Better off than these poor Seniors, We are thinking, striving, working, Getting out a High School paper. We will tell you all the humor That beguiles our weary class hours; All the jokes and queer mischances That have happened in our school rooms; Give you, too, the best of essays, Best of stories, best of poetry, To amuse you and instruct you. A SPOILED CHYLDE. A spoiled chylde is in these wyde londes, That hadde ne beene smibben sharply for the nones; He wot no chastisement or “other woe” That is so gode for every wight belowe. And he must ever be with everichon The firste oon, wher that he is anon, Or elles he lifteth up his voys in crye, And loude is his lamentinge and envye. Despitous was he to houndes and his brudor, He doth not even mochly love his moder, He nevere sheweth ony oon kindnesse, He doth nat knowe what memeth humblenesse. His moder loveth him, but for the reste Who dwelle r.ere, they hate him as I gesse, Tor soothe he was a worthy chylde at alle, And soothe to scyn, I ne telle how men him calle. —MARGARET STEERE, ’08.

10 THE EMANOX SALUTATORY. Should you ask us how it happened. Who proposed it at the outset, Who it was that toiled and labored, That this High School book be published. That this Emanon be printed, We would answer, we would tell you, ’Twas the thought of mighty Seniors, Twas the work of unpaid writers, Who did hack-work in the valley, In the valley of Grand River, Not for fame or greater honor, Nor to fill their empty pockets, But to show the world around them That the High School is important, That the work there is most useful. Should you read among these pages How the Freshmen fought and conquered. How in turn they were defeated, How one night the school was raided. Do not spurn this High School primer, But remember that we students, In our mad race after knowledge. In our strife for greater wisdom. Cannot always stay so solemn, That the mind must have vacation, That our tired and o’erworked brainlcts Cannot always keep on learning. But do not judge us by these trifles, Judge us rather by our knowledge, Which you now may judge with justice. You shall learn of last year’s Seniors, How those Seniors held a council, Had a grave and serious council, At which many braves were present. For the question was a grave one, And involved a goodly number. Flow they pondered and debated, Aye, and argued, almost squabbled.

12 Till-] KMAXOX. EDITORIAL. I hose who, when reading our paper, may happen upon something of interest to them, may attribute it chiefly to our Advisory Board whose kindness and interest in the paper is most heartily appreciated. We are indebted to many members of the Freshman and Sophomore classes and desire to thank the Junior class especially for its unwavering support. Enclosed find the stories of our school-mates, their poems, humor and essays, wrought by the labor of many broken pens and half-eaten pencils and budding genius, for which labor please send us no unkind criticisms (as it would be a waste of paper i, but instead twenty-five cents if you still owe our book agent. Reading makcth a full man, conference a ready man, and writing an exact man; but editing a senior paper maketh a full, ready, exact and discouraged man.
