Junior Year Book $1 age Simnttii-mu ' SOPHOMORES IN RHYME. Tell me not in mournful numbers, That we Soph’s will not be great, For the future generations Are depending on our fate. Every mother’s son among us, (Every mother’s daughter, too,) Though we’ve all the fun that’s going, Still we work the whole day through. Margaret C. will go to Europe. Carrie B. will lead a troupe, While Earl will be a bachelor And keep out of the soup. Mildred C., a missionary, To India’s strand will roam, And raise poor unenlightened heathen, From bowing down to wood and stone. Albert Burtt will be director Of Ringling Bros.’ great big show, But what will become of Ethel, No one will ever know. Flossie as a manicurist, A fortune grand will reap; Marie Jackson will get married, And Charles’ tea will steep. Helen K. for lone bot’ny, From matrimony e’er will keep, And teach a class of unpromising youngsters How to know the flowers sweet. Lester Polk as a temperance lecturer. Will travel over all the states; While Cecil M., as a prosperous florist, Will e’er command the highest rates. Percival as a great explorer In the northern ice and snow. While Catherine will marry a millionaire And live a life of show. Oma Martin will be a teacher, Of Caesar and Cicero, While Catherine Mazur will be an author, And be far-famed also. Ivan will be a philosopher, And muse on topics wide, But what in the world to do with Dean, The fates cannot decide. Everett F. as a cartoonist famed, Will soon his fortune make. While Cecil S., as a senator, Will rule nation and state. Anna as teacher of mathematics, Will spread her fame around, While Capitola will go to college, And appear in cap and gown, And so our fates are all decided, We’ll surely all be great, And the Sophomore class will prosper, And be treated kindly by fate. Laurine Hill, ’ll Bye, bye, Freshies, Don’t you cry, You’ll be Sophomores, Bye and bye.
