HUMOROUS I WISH. I wish Just this That I was cute and sweet I know that I am homely as a frog I :un pretty sometimes Onlygin a fog Gee but I wish Just this Just this and nothing more If I could just be- Pretty as Marie In the picture book. Esther Stopie, '20 BEYOND THE SKIN OF HIAVWATHA. Hiawatha was a rought neck'd guy 'Tho Longfellow never knew He was a heap bad big Injun Andfwould often smoke and chew. A He the liar and the boozer He the beggar and the ehooser Fought and whipped fair Minnehaha Stole some arrows from her papa This I think is the true Hiawatha. Hiawatha was a lawless man He would never list' to reason During Prohibition he'd rush the can And he hunted the red toe out of season He the sneak thief, and the scholar Sold Presque Isle for a half a dollar Sturtefl and finished white man slaughter Made raids on mines and stole their copper Tried standing in a canoe but fell in the water Old Longfellow was mistaken, Old Longfellow was untruthful, Old Longfellow was a liar, VVhen he said that men are useless NVithout silly foolish females! VVise Longfellow was no liar, Wise Longfellow was most truthful, VVise Longfellow said what I think, XVhen he said females are useless VVithout men to make them useful! This I am sure was the true Hiawatha. Milton Robinson, '20 Sheets , '20

XVhen Nakomis saw the maiden, Saw the lovely Minnehaha She rejoiced and spoke her feelings Thus she spoke to Hiawatha, Hiawatha you did wisely, Wisely acted my young grandson Minncllaha laughing water She will run on all my errands Do the chores and everything So that I may rest in gladness Loaf around and 'joy myself. Thus the lazy old Nakomis Spoke about the youthful maiden Thus she spoke of Minnehaha. Then alone and pondering further W'ith a sigh she spoke again, Thank the Lord that Hiawatha Chose a wife from the Decotahs From the tribe of willing workers. H.C.L
