Aint It a Grand and Glorious Feeling when:- Edwin Last refuses to play another encore on his accordian. Mr. Bartholomew announces that there will be no gym class today. Mr. Peck is detained at home. Carrol Haack comes to school with his hair cut. Mr. Hawtrey gives us a short history assignment. You get a good mark in Latin. You read Darwin's Theory on Evolution and find out you descended from lklonkeys Une of the Freshman Girls says something clever. Edward Unger asks you for a date. One of the Teachers is Snowhound in lklilwaukee, and can't come hack for sev eral days. lllr. Peck and all the Teachers have classes and a Student is in charge of the Assembly. You find out that some of the Sophomore Girls don't weigh as much as you think they do. True expression. Sometimes some queer expressions, Come in vogue-are widely used, But I have a good impression, Of Veronica, just lately used. Oh shc's quite the cat's pajamas Isn't she the oyster's ears? VVhat a truly striking lingo, To hand down to future years. She would like to be the snail's antlers Or quite the m0le's eyehall, Or the old cat's fallen arches, And to see the fellows fall. File your themes, the teacher said, uHave them all precise and neat. Puzzled, Dorothy shook her head And walked down to.her seat. Next day to English, she came with a smile. Her works could hardly be read, She explained, They were so hard to file, I cut them down instead. R. B., '2o. Page Seventy-one
