28 THE SCREECH OWL Mary Sheridan wishes to pass In order to sell Socony gas. W. Fardy, ’27. Lives of Seniors all remind us We can make our lives like theirs, And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the High School stairs. Mr. Reardon — How are matches made? Weckstrom — Matches are made in heaven. I don’t know how. Elizabeth S. : No, a young lady should not say “Hello” when she meets a member of the faculty. Miss Thompson — Where is there a change in the atmosphere of this poem ? Margaret K. — In the fourth part, where it begins to rain. Wonderful Discovery ! ! Per- petual Motion Machine ! ! Wini- fred Fardy’s jaw. Chemistry Lab. — (Commonly sup- posed to be a place where chemistry is studied, but lab. according to Webster, means a great talker.) Hence, the Chemistry Lab. is a gentleman who talks excessively about chemistry, and other things.
