Kenneth doesn't think he's excellent but he admits he's pretty good for an amateur. At last comes the class star, Ford Shryack. Ford could take a part in any play, take the part of either boy or girl. He is the one who certainly can give the feeling of the poem. Only two more lines to go, the bell rings and everyone jumps up, only to sit down again to remain' until the end of Ford's recitation. Then, a nod of Mrs. Thompson's head, and a mad scramble for the door, the girls leaving first, to the whispers of hurry up from the boys. -Verna F luegel. lIDlIE5lIL9lllVlIE5lIR llMlllIEJ Oh, give me the sanction of a desert isle, Where I can rest my weary brain awhile, From the horrors of Biology or all things scientific, I hate them because they're so dreadfully specific, When it comes to science I'll join the jesters, I refuse to be worried about my ancestors. I should worryg for what's the dif' to me Whether I sprang from clay or a climber of trees My teacher tells me that I'm just lazy But if I study it much longer I'll simply go crazy. I dream of fish and bugs and snakes, And study about 'em when I'm awake. They tell me to describe a fish's backbone l I should worry over a fish's when I've one of my own. I can't understand all of this stuff about gills Oh, boy, of science, I've sure got my fill! 'Neath the strain of it all my nerves are nigh broke Oh, give me relief before I choke! -Hildveth Green f if xii x'+i.'. 1':A1v:'1-wif 20 14 - x'f's-tvf'xv,f'xvf'x',f'1
