GREETING g n this, his first birthday, the Burro greets you with his sec- ond bray, which we feel justi- ;.mj fied in saying is more melodi- ous, long drawn out, and soul inspiring, than his previous efforts. His ap- pearance has undergone such a radical change for the better that we think, if his corral is not enlarged in a very short time, he will feel hampered in his humble sur- roundings. The voracity with which this little animal has foraged in every possible source for provender of both literary and pecuniary matter, leads us to believe that he is in the prime of his life. We feel sure that he will never be groomed by more competent hands, and that his usually shaggy coat will never be smoother and be in more perfect condition than it now is. As for his interior contents, we shall make no excuse; for on what more choice food could you feed such an animal? We do not claim that he holds within his maw any masterpiece of litera- ture or art, but a simple portrayal of our high school life as we live it and wish to re- member it in the years to come. So dear reader make to yourself what criticisms you will. But pray do not tickle his heels in public.
