The light of love, the purity of grace The mind, the softness of her face And oh, that eye wus in itself a suul, 49 THE CLASS OF 1923 HE SUN is sinking in the West and soon there will be only the wonderful 6 reflections in a clear blue sky to remind me of the brightness fast receding. As I watch it my heart is full of memories, and a trifle sad. The sunset tells me that the day is done, and it will not be long until my days at Tarleton are done also. Is it really possible that it has been four years since our class first met and started on the best four years we have ever had, or will ever have? To me the memories of these past years are vivid and heautiful, like the colors of the sunset. In September, 1919, we assembled gaily to enjoy our college Hcareern t0 the utmost, and, incidentally, to gain a little knowledge We were proud of the fact that we were the largest most loyal, and best united class in school. And even though we were only Fish we had begun to develop athletic ability. Compton had the honor of being captain of the basket ball team, and Beryl Burnett proved a valuable member of the girlsY team. Our ereative ability was demonstrated in the Dramatic Club. There was never a more enjoyable year than that in which we were carefree Fishiuld enough to go to college, yet too young to take life seriously. At the end of the year we went home feeling that we had had Hthe best year ever.H As Hsophisticated Sops we came back stronger than ever. A little older, :1 little wiser, and thoroughly imbued with the Tarleton spirit, we put the best we had into our work and play. Besides having as much fun as possible we were represented in the various college activitiesiboth glee clubs, Menls Quartet, Y. W. C. A. Cabinet, The Agg Club, HTH Association, HK. K. K.'s,lt and all branches of athletics. Every member of the original and famous ttD. D. Dls was a Sophomore. Last year, as semi-dignitied Juniorv, we had so many new members that the 01d class was almost lost in the new. But under the capable leadership of Miss Walker as adviser, we gut into the spirit of things and lived up to our past standards. Ernest Beleher carried off the honors in the State Inter-Collegiate Oratorieal Contest. In debating too, the Juniors were among the first, especially Gilbreath, Latson, and Jenkins. In athletics the Juniors continued to demon- strate that same ability which makes the Senior class of '23 among the leaders in : M, e. . w 1 Q 2733 44.3.

Cabinet had several Juniors eacht We got together on several picnics and parties, but the erowning social event was the banquet tendered the graduating Seniors by our class. At the beginning of this year we regretted to find that so many of our class had not come back. Some are teaching, some married, and some have entered various fields of work. But we boast of sixty-hve, a class almost twice as large as any that has yet graduated frum Tarlctnn. Several new members came to our class from other colleges. About two weeks after school opened we had our first class meeting and elected Zelna Compton president, 0. L. Savage vice-president, Elizabeth Haw- kins secretary, Dow Perry treasurer, Irene Ellis historian, and ,Miss Looney class adviser. From the very first the Seniors have stuck together. and, although the life of a. Senior is hard, we have had good times together. The kodaking party made an enjoyable afternoon. In February we put over the biggest social event in the history of Tarleton. It was a real Carnival, for the benefit of the Annual. 0n the afternoon of the 28th, a part of the band staged an Hadvance act of the Carnival in the form of a parade on the square Each member participat- ing was dressed in a clown suit of wonderful originality. Captain Price, very military in a handsome clown suit of rod and white, .3ny directed the band from the back of prancing donkey. HMilitary Rediy accompanied the parade to make an announcement concerning the Carnival. Those who were privileged to hear him were indeed fortunate, for the oratory of that speech has never been equalled except by Lincoln in his Gettsyburg Address, and Patrick Henry in his famous oration. No doubt the name of ttMilitary Red will go down in the annals of history along with these two. Every Senior, and many friends of the Seniors, eo-operated fully. There was never another Carnival like it. Will any of us ever forget itiZ For the first time we were able to give an entertainment in 11 place large enough to accom- modate the student body and the town peoploiour new gymnasium It was decorated with gay colors and every booth was resplendent with color and charm. 51 mm GRASSBURR: mm EFF THE CLASS OF 1923 ICONTLKUEDJ Every fashion, nationality, and color was represented in the costumes worn by the students. Multi- colored paper shakers, baleons, whistles, Japanese souvenirs and endless booths contributed to tho festivity of the occasion. We Seniors are very proud of our class and we have every right to be. Five of the 1922 football letter men are SeniorsiCompton, BethelY Savage, Lee and Mobley. Without Cock Robbin in the pitcherys box, Izzy Nowlin on third base, and Graves and Eberhart in the outfield, the baseball team might as well have stopped before it started. If the Seniors were taken from the Menls Glee Club there simply wotllJ not be any Glee Club left. Where would the quartet be without Allbrittnn, Price, and Savage? The Military Band without its Seniors would be sadly depleted. The Grassburr stuff, composed largely of Seniors, is proving to be one of the most efficient we have ever had. Through the efforts of the staff we have put the Grassbul'l' on a blanket tax, which will make it self- sustaining. We have twu members of the Senior class who have been on the Honor Roll since entering college three or four yours ago-vMary Davidge Buck and Ethel MeCleskey. Among the Seniors are some of the most distinguished and capable students in school. There is nut one of whom the class may not be prolLd. All have upheld the standards of Tarleton; all have fought tugether and have been for each other through everything. As we leave college one of the most pleasant memories will be of our advisor, Miss Looney. She has been an adviior, a pal, and a sincere friend to every member of the class. Not one has worked harder, more cheerfully, than she. And for her interest and understanding, and her efforts to make this the most enjoyable, the most profitable year we have had, we will always love her. There will always be the happy memories of these days. Each teacher has contributed something worth while, and each of our lives will be a little more profitable, and a little sweeter, because at them. Inspired by the ideals and associations of Tarleton, we hope to go out into the world, and live the spirit of HOn Ye Tarleton. ll ELLE Amg 1 9 1L32-Wn 52 momswumb mm LE , J U HVORS Anxmi 0 1 3 Wm 53 g n?

Like all huge sehnols of fish many of them individually were destined to flourish; while others am-m'ding t0 naturek method in dealing with foolish fish were to perish before the mature age of graduation could be reaehed. Some were devoured by the horrible shmks of advanced lealning but others managed to survive. They found the hultle for life and recognition diffi- cult, but fought desperately against tremendous odds and Won. The next year found thew former fish much larger and wiser. They had mastered the first steps in a oollege edunation. The tea'eu were mst aside and replaced by more appropriate appalel. Still they were clesur t0 the bottom than the top, and the battle of old wzis renewed with ineiensed vigor and deter- mination Sturdy new comers reernforeml the ranks and aided in the rough and difficult places through which the class was forced to pass. Again some few fell behind and were forgotten. Others wont slowly but steadily onward bent on the one supreme goal. Thus the second great step was successfully ascended. Last September- found this hand eager to attempt a g: enter and more perilous step. Here they were reinforced by the choicest graduates from the best high schools in the land. Mnnhomi and womanhood flocked tu them. After regis- tration was completed the Juniors came to the happy realization that their class was the largest Tarleton has ever known. Since then wonderful discoveries have been made. When the call for volunteers for football was made, the Juniors offered men who have roven ttstarsfi In basket hall, girl; and lmvs from this reat P . g brotherhood of Juniors have played the game fairly and have won. The Juniors are working diligently for places on the hmoball team in order to help hold high the hmmers of Tarletnnk victories. In the dramatic and debuting activities the Juniurs have played important parts. Thus we see how those fish of 1920-21 with reinforcements have Inadeilahd are still making history for Tarletuu. Three great steps have been made. The fourth and last is just ahead. gig Amg 1 9 1 3Wm 6 l 62 LAAEQLAA.

HISTORY is merely a cross between facts and hereby, we still maintain, as writers have tsaidt for generation upon generation, there are always certain sub- jects to which the pen cannot do justice. And the Sopho- more class is such a subject. In this, the second year of their college life, they have shown themselves eminently worthy to be the friends and eo-pm'tnel's of the illustrious Seniors. . The clam comprises many varied types, all of which form a composite whole,-n whole that is at once the won- der and the admiration of every under-classman, every upperrclassman, and every member of the faculty. These different types have been so blended together as to compose a body of students which every one recognize; as an ideal Sophomore class. As a parting message, in view of their previous record, they ask only that their friends and associates waitch the triumphal progress of this great and glorious class from the present time to the notable year of 1925 which marks their graduation from J . T. A. O.che crowning point of their college career. w$4i$4ii9 913,11, FEE, 712$ Am-m 1 0 1.3' gg34;m 68 l momssnunm mm fIR CS H MEN 69 Malcolm Asbell Syhel Bennett Lovell Box Audie Brown Iva Burleson Paul Cannon Edrie Daniel Effie Dennis 11a Mae Dennis Jimmie Edington Ruby Green Richard Grimes Rollie Hill Marvin Hard Leslie Jennings :0 RAS 813 Lima, , Walter Johnson Minnie Klmbm Ethel Land Damaris Leatherwood Luther Mabery Buck Overton Sue Preslar Paul Riherd J ack Rogers Annie B Shaw Mont D.

The Ag Club had always been an important organization in Tarletun but suddenly one day at the first of the term of 192122 the boys found that they were not the only things so significant fnr-well the girls had organized the Aggettes. This club was solely for a good time and it has excellently fulfilled its purpose, There have been hikes, picnlces, and all kinds of entertainments Yes, who could ever forget the splendit nigger wedding with all of its gorgeous costuming that was staged during the first year of the club's existence. Then came the new term of 1922-23 and with it came many new girls who were promptly initiated into the fun and frolic that the old members were so anxious to share. The old spirit soon returned and again began our Monday night meetings with a spicy program each time. T00, surely something must be said at the few joint sessions with the Ag Club. Along with all this there has ever been an ultimate aim of a cabin on the farlr, a place for camping trips. and though this is yet a dream, some day it will surely materialize into an actuality.

The aims of the Club through these years have been the increase and dissemination of knowl- cdge concerning Agriculture and similar subjects and the promotion of closer fellowship between students of Agriculture and others interested in Agriculture at John Tarleton Agricultural College. Alsn keeping in mind the fact that farmers and agricultural leaders of the future must be trained in the art of cooperation and organization. It has been the further object of this Club to give training in parliamentary procedure, organizations. committee work, and public speaking through the regular direction of business, the programs and through parliamentary drilL And further remembering that the t'arm is a human institution and that the per- mance and progress at nur state dprnds upon a happy and prosperous nlral population. Our purpose has been to study means by which the joys of the open country may be emphasized and the pmflts from agricultural projects increased. With the above in mind, the Chlb at once proved a success, not only gaining a better knnwledge of Agriculture and similar subjects but creating a closer fellowship between Agricultural students and others interested in Agriculture at John Tarleton Agricultural College. 2?

When Ernest Belcher. from Stephenville High School, entered the club it certainly gained a live wire member. He entered the Oratorical Contest and easily won district honors. Later at Plainview. Texas, he met and debated against the best team that Wayland, Burleson, and Marshall could muster up, and won the state championship. Although it was the first time in several years'that Tarletun had been represented by a debating team or in the Oratorical Contest, we think that the club has been doing a splendid work and feel that it has filled a vacancy that was very apparent in Tarleton.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF ttJOHN7S ARMY n HJohnys Army, as the cadets term the military organization of John Tarleton Agricultural College, has grown by vast strides from the beginning. Upon registration every cadet is enlisted in HJohn's Army . He drills and learns to like it. When John Tarleton College, beeame a part of the Great Texas A. and M. system in 1917, it automatically became an institution of military training. Mr. S. F. Davis, who was a graduate of the Texas A. and M. College, was made eom- mandant with Mr. Pickett of the Kansas Aggies as assistant commandant. The first year HJohn's Army WM organized, it was composed of sixty-eight cadets including a cadet captain and one second lieutenant, Cecil Chamberlain being the first captain in the cadet corps. In its second year of existence ttJuhnis Army saw a slight change in that it was made a unit of the S. A. T. C. under the direction of Lieutenant Roberson 0f the United States Army, who took the place of Mr. S. F. Davis as Com- mandant. The Officers Club, which has steadily grown and proved very beneficial in strengthening the military discipline 0f the cadet corps, was also organized in this year. The size of the cadet corps had increased very little, but from what the pioneer cadets say the amount of drill increased decidedly. With the end of the war the S. A. T. C. was disbanded and Mr. S. F. Davis again took command of the cadet corps. With the beginning of the third year the cadet corps grew from one small eompany to two well organized companies. Although handicapped by having to teach chemistry and other subjects, Mr. S. F. Davis Was of invaluable service as commandant 0f the cadet corps for almost five years. It was due to his untiring efforts, and strict disciplinary standards that the cadet corps grew from one small company with two officers, to a full battalion, having a cadet Major and ten other commissioned officers. The cadets were equipped with rifles instead of the old wooden dummies which were very inefficient. Mr. Davis also organized a rifle team whir-h did some good work. After several years of persistent persuasion 011 the part of Dean Davis and commandant S. F. Davis, the United States Government was convinced that Tarleton needed an army officer for the instruction of its cadet corps. After many considerations for the place, a man, due to his superior qualities as an officer and gentlemenly scholar, was finally selected and accepted as the P. M. S. tamm'l Q 3- 3 rmi'tfhm 112 cu THE DEVELOPMENT OF ttJOHNS ARMY tCONTINUEDi and T. of HJohuts Arnin It is through this mants untiring efforts that the military standards of Tal'lotnu are quickly being recognized. This man is Captain Ray Harris, Captain, Infantry, United States Army. D. 0. L. With the coming of the new year, 1922, Captain Harris took command of HJohnk ArmyYK The cadets respected Captain Harris from the beginning, and by the end of the school session he had Hwhipped the corps into a snappy battalion of Hspit-k and spun soldiers. Near the end of the year the cadets put on several dress parades which spoke well for- the college. At the end of the year there was held at the college farm :1 competitive drill between the companies, in which there was much interest manifested. With the opening of the 1922 and ,23 school session there was added to the steady growing cadet corps another company, making three companies altogether. and having a total of two hundl-ed-flfty cadets, including the commissioned officers, of which there are at present seventeen. The cadet eorps visited the Texas State Fair at Dallas on ttTarleton Day and staged a striking parade. On February 22, there was organized from A, B, and C Companies a D company which is used on parade days and fur special occasions as the fourth company in forming a regiment. In addition to infantry drill the cadets engage in various minor tactics. Friday of each week is dress parade day. On thie day the hour is devoted to either a regimental parade 01' review. This year finds HJohn's Army with a winning rifle team. The team has won a place in the Eighth Corps Area shoot, and is now a unit member of the competitive National gallery shoot. There is being laid out at the college Farm a class 2 B course for marks- man qualifications with the caliber 30 rifles. At the end of the year the cadets will stage a sham battle, using blank ammunitimi. HJohn's Army has several customs which are observed by the cadets each year. One of the customs is the November 11Y ceremonies. On this day the endets are reviewed by some high-ranking officer of the United States Army. The last time they were reviewed by Colonel Todd, P. M. S. and T. of the Texas A. and M. College. In former years the cadets have been reviewed by General Buck and Senator Baugh. Another custom of the corps is an annual eompetetive drill. instituted by Captain Harris, and held at the College Farm at the end of each school year. This cmnpetetive drill is held between the different units of wtmm 1 Q ?- 3 ifoW-m 113 mm GRASSBURRJ mm THE DEVELOPMENT OF uJOHNS ARMYii iCONTINUEDt the corps, and is judged by some army officer.

Each company has an honorary captain elected from the ex- serviee teachers of the college, as also has the hand. These honorary captains create much enthusiasm in their outfits, and are of great help in instructing the cadets. After much discussion in the Officers Club it was decided to m'eate the office of Sponsor. The Sponsors are honorary members of the Officers Club, and elected by it, from the most worthy of Tarletonis girls. There is one Sponsor elected to each of the four highest units in the corps. These sponsors are an inspiration to their units in which they create much enthusiasm. The Sponsors are present on parade days and take much interest as the cadets pass in review. These Sponsors also help the cadets to plan social events, and they are highly appreciated by the whole corps. As a conclusion, we all believe in military training as the basis in the establishment of the best moral, mental, and physical characters of the Tarleton youth.

MORASSBURR; mm HIS MAJESTY, DON PEDRO HAT happens when an lrresistable force humps into an immovable body may re- QD main 8 mystery to science, but it does not take a philosopher to imagine what happens when Sir Monk of the last cage to the left connects with mi-lady's new spring bonnet. Don Pedro, for that was Sir Monk's name, decided to investigate the exterior of the big top . Such a small thing as a chain was nothing in the sweet, young life of Don Pedro. He broke said chain into so many pieces that the black-smith swore until the air was blue when it became known to him that he was to make it whole again. Pedro was off to the races, and there were many; a little child asked his mother to buy him that funny animal and when the mother saw the animal in question she let out the squeal that Was heard tround the wnrld'. Thus began the first race. Pedro discovered that the world was his. All he had to do was to catch it. Now this quadrumanous mammal of the species simiidae was a gorilla of the greatest proportions and his ability to cover ground was of the first magnitude. Yes, the world was his to catch. He caught. First it was a hall of pop-corn, then a stick of red candy in the hands of a youngster who nestled in the arms of a terrified mother, then a lady's hat that was covered with long plumes, tthe hat was covered not the ladyt. The lady had scrambled to the highest seat in the tent and was staring, wild-eyed, at the monster. He grinned and took possession of the pretty feathers. The lady fainted. Sir Monk let her faint. He was not interested in ladies; he possessed himself of some very tine feathers He was very gracious; he moved on out of her way. She humped her pretty little head on the seat. tSir Pedro had more sense than ye Jelly-heant. Pedro was having the time of his sweet young life when the animal trainer came along and tried to coax him back to his cage. The animal trainer used very persuasive argument. yes, he had a lung whip that spoke rather sharply to the very sensitive Don Pedro But Pedro had a head of his own and decided to butt it where ever he chose. The next place that he chose was the tent of the Bearded Lady. He wobbled up to the Bearded Lady and that gentleman sought refuge under the platform. The impullteness of some peoplets children. Fears only wanted to play. he wasn't going to harm any one. Hts next conquest was in the tent where the fattest lady in the world sat calmly and heavily on a very strong chair. The fat individal showed a very clean pair of heels, if you'll excuse my French. Pedro caught the spirit or the play and chased her. He tagged her on the back and jumped to the top of a cage wagon. He seemed hurt when she did not pursue him and tag him back. Pedro thought that perhaps the people out on the grounds would be more friendly. An automobile stopped at the entrance. A very dignmed lady alighted. Something about this elderly person atracted Pedro. It was her hat. Pedro had a weakness for bugs, mm GRAS SBURR; ems HIS MAJESTY, DON PEDRO tCONTINUEDI especially fat ones. He thought that he might find a delicious repast in this cherry colored bonnet. He conhscated it. As it came off so did most of the hair of the dignmed person. She screamed and without aid from her footmen who had just assisted her to slight, jumped five feet and ran two blocks, Pedro followed. She seemed to have last all interest in her hat so he tore it into bits. He was madithere was not even a cockroach m it. The sweet essence of ithot-dogs came to Sir Monk from one 01' the stands. He decided that it was time to dine He dined copiously on hot-dogs and pea-nuts, mostly pea-nuts. The man who was in charge of the stand suddenly became interested in some thing under the counter. He let Pedro help himself to anything that took his fancy. After eating all the pea-nuts that he wanted and after drinking a bottle of catsup, Pedro mounted one of the Shetland ponies. The pony resented this presumption on the 'part of Sir Monk and started bucking. Pedro had never been on the hurricane deck of a bucking hronc before in his life but he stayed in the saddle like an expert. This was great sport. He dismounted on his own accord and was pondering on the behavior of the people when all of a sudden he heard the birds of his native wilds singing. Oh what a pal was Pedrof' He saw the whole constellation. It seemed as if the earth had jumped up and hit him in the hack of the head. He was blind for a moment. The universe was reeling. His head hurt. A little lap-dog that had escaped from one of the wealthy ladies ran up to him and began to storm in the canine lingo. Pedro was in the deepest misery. The wealthy lady was having one spell after another. She was offering a reward to any brave man who would rescue Toots from the horrid beast. The dog worried Pedro and he swatted it with his mighty paw as a man swats a fly. Toots passed away Funeral services were held at two olclock the following afternoon. Pedro staggered to his feet and-hsm????? He woke up hours later. The little pony had handed him some knock-oubdrops in the form of patting him on the head with his heels, Pedro had never in his life used strong drink, but today he had tampered with something that had just as strong kick. For many days attrr this little exploration trip Don Pedro was very sick. His head became better but he was sick at heart. There were so many things that he wanted to do. He paced the length of his cage in much the fashion that Napoleon paced the deck of the ship that bore him away to St. Helena. Maybe some day he would have another chance. He went to sleep that afternoon and dreamed of the day when he would walk again with the freeman upon the earth and up tent poles. eltobvrt Sledge. r MW: 1 9 2-3 Wm i A E; mt GRAS 813 URIhith OH LET ME RIDE Oh let me ride on an honest horse, Where God doth reign supreme, Where little of him in words you hear, But the birds his praises singt 0h let me ride to Lookout Hill And look on the valley below, Where my hungry soul like the cattle fill From the grass and the flowers that grow.

Greenwood. r mm GRASSBURR: men 66EVEN AS YOU AND 1,, tAWARnnD FIRST szm T WAS 2 :30 in the morning The conductor had just made his way through the stifling eoal-dusty coaches waking the passengers with his barely un- derstandable HStephenville . Several sleepy-eyed passengers began to stir around making hurried preparations to leave the train. In the rear coach was a very wide awake, happy, young western boy. He eould hardly keep his seat until the train slowed down for its ten minute wait. His happy countenance faded as he remembered that even yet he must wait several hours before the coming of morning and Martha. He strolled into the little red brick station, which he remembered so well, and decided to wait up until morning. He felt as if he could never sleep. As he sat and looked around the familiar room, its yellow, straight bucked benches, the old stove, which had not yet been removed, the splintery, uncovered floor and even the old, red water cooler brought back many and treasured memories. His mind wandered to the four happy years he had spent in this little town in John Tarleton College. Well he remembered his arrival here five years ago. What a green, awkurd, little grasshurr he must have been, clinging so trustingly to his loved college. How he had envied those full grown, husky grasslmn's who had already drawn so much wisdom from their Alnm-Mnter, and were ready to drop and be scattered by the four winds of the earth He had spent all that year just learningthe essentials of college life and had entered with all his heart and soul into all forms of athletics and other branches of college life. And the next year, he would never forget that year. It was during this year that Martha had come. And then, he had grown a little, and mere resembled a full grown grassburr. But Martha, she had been such a dear, tender little gmssburr, she needed some one not quite so green as herself, to help her take the jars and hard knocks that all green little gl'asshurrs must take. He had been through it all and thought himself well fitted for the job. Martha had thought so too. ' Their next year was just one, long dream of happiness. First had been the many football games, with he one of the stars, and Martha always smiling bright- ly, waiting on the side lines. The many parties given for the classes and for the football squad had been such great fun. Then came the Christmas vacation when he had gone to visit at Marthals home. He remembered the J. T. Actors club e nmkm 1 9 143' Wm gall; M GRASSDURRJ mm ttEVEN AS YOU AND F where Martha was one night the beautiful heroine, and he the deep dyed villian. That Whole year just seemed a whirl of pleasures, with the exception of a dis- agreement with Martha which lasted a seeming never ending two weeks. They had also, along witht heir pleasures worked hard that year and had managed to make the yoafs honor roll. Then came his last year with the many responsibilities and privileges. It passed muoh as had the previous year. He had worked hard and had been successful. He graduated with highest honors. Martha had been very proud to think he was a full gl'uwn grasxburr. Ready to leave his dear college and make his way through the world alone. Very unexpectedly he fell asleep at this point. and did lint awaken until the bright morning sun fell upon hie fare. He was dazed fur a moment and could hardly remember where he was. It all soon name back to him and he remembered that he had come to see Martha, and he was soon the eager and excited boy he had been the night before. He remembered that even dreamers and lovers must eat so he crossed the street to the familiar little restaurant, where he learned that it was the Seniorts class day. He had come several days early to surprise Martha andihe was glad he had been so lucky as to arrive on her class day. He made his way slowly up the same old street and felt as if he must be going to meet an eight obloek class. He met many old friends with whom he exchanged cordial greetings. As he neared the building he began to be nervous. What would he say to Martha; what would she do; would she be glad to see him? These questions crowded themselves through his mind. He reached the chapel just as the exercise started and took a seat in the roar of the auditorium. It was during the last song that Marthats bright eyes spied him. She gave a short. gasp of delight. As the others left the chapel, she held back and at last came slowly down the aisle. He extended his hand and said with an aubible sob in his voice: HMartha, are you ready? Martha replied in a low tone, HYes Dear, I am now a grown Grassburr and cans tick to whom and what I choose, and Jack, I choose you. tTHE ENDI By Beth Bessel. mm GRAS SB mm; mm TARLETON DISCIPLINE tParady on Little Orphan AnnieW The demerit system has come to Tarleton to stay To keep the students from being mean and doing 'ist anyway, Mrs. Moody carries it further still by giving demerits at the dump But Captain Harris of military fame, keeps the rookies on the jump.
