Skin ’em alive, Skin ’em alive, Hurrah for the class of Nineteen Five. THE DONORS OF THE CLOCK. BY LOLA VANE. In presenting a Program Clock to the school as our memorial, the class of ’05 wished particularly to impress upon the minds of dilatory undergraduates the fact that they must hustle if they ever catch up with ’05, or acquire in any way the great and noble qualities which character¬ ize the class. The general beauty of the clock has been much ad¬ mired, but we wish to call your attention to the fact that all the handsome features of the clock simply exemplify the virtues of the class. Its quiet unobtrusiveness most accurately depicts the manner in which ’05 has slowly but surely wended its way through the wearisome toils of High School labors. The melodious tones of its bells is but an illustration of the musical ability possessed by our belles. The promptness with which it attends to its duties in¬ dicates one of the most noble qualities of our members. No word of grumbling at the numerous duties impos¬ ed upon it, is ever heard to pass its lips, another valuable trait of character which we possess. The beauty of our clock’s exterior has been comment¬ ed upon, but consider also the wealth of virtue which abounds in its heart; this is also but an example of the same quality of the donors. Its broad, open face shows clearly that a broad, expan¬ sive mind exists behind it, this, too, being verified by all the members of the class of ’05. The short hand plodding slowly and carefully on its way, indicates very clearly the disposition and habits of our lone gentleman member. The long hand, skipping blithely around, passing many times the more sedate, dig¬ nified hand, depicts only too accurately the disposition, not the stature, of our ‘’Little Virgie.” In a glance at the clock, T, in twelve’s place catches the eye. This, we wish you all to realize, stands for “trust.” The trust which our teachers have always had in us as a class. The letter following, H, indicates “hunger.” Our con¬ stant. hunger for knowledge. E, stands for just what it is, the grades we all get. C, certainly means “credit”—to the school. L, of course, stands for nothing else than “loss”— when we are gone. A, can only mean awe, that which the younger classes have for ’05. S, studious, we always were noted for that. The second S, indicates “sure,” our invariable reply to any request for work to be done. O, is the exclamation aroused by the thought of our wonderful class. F, the letter following, is devoted to advice to the low¬ er classes, it is: “Follow in our footsteps.” Finally, ’05 stands for the noblest, greatest class which ever wended its triumphant way thru High School. In short, “The donors of the clock, we’re it!”
