t THE LINCOLNIAN 21 Next on teh wall is Anna S., A maid of high ambitions, Her aim in life to play her part And win a great position. The next in line is Marguerite S.. Verletta, Roy and Claud. Just one more S. ; is Mable left ? No No! for her applaud! Just one brave soul will grace the T ' s , And that is Arthur T., So grand and tall, He ne’er will fall, Except he try in love to fall. There ' s one more letter left to us. We will not go to Z’s, But may the name of Allen “Ward” off care and disease. Then farewell, class of 1910, Go up life ' s great broad ladder: Pleasant memories you leave behind. And thoughts that ne’er grow sadder. Great men have scaled such heights as you Are now about to climb, May God be ever with you. And guide you all the time. Laura Carr, TO. Miss Jones — “Roy, what is the feminine corresponding- to the masculine stag?” Roy (whose mother is a society leader) — “Afternoon tea ma’am.” Gray — “I’m in the pink of condition, old man, but I f pretty blue because everyone tells me I ' m looking awfu, white.” Brown — “Well, I think that a chap who gets blue because he is white must be terribly green or have a strong streak of yellow in his make up.” Miss C. J., of our Senior class (picking up the aluminum knives and forks), asked: “Miss S., are these sliver?” Miss S. (answering indulgently) — “No, C.” Miss C. J.- — “I thought not; the’ don’t look like mother’s.” (We took the hint.) Professor C. (speaking to Miss C. G.) asked: “Is oxygen stable or otherwise?” Miss C. G. — “It is otherwise.”
