Page THE MESS CALL ITHE FACULTY BREWJ Since soldiers are very fond oi stew, The faculty stirred up a motley brew, And each one did his separate part In making the soup a work of art. Miss Flori supervised the mixture So that no mischievous, pranking trickster Would put an object ot harmtulness Into the grand and glorious mess. Using his rhythm stick as a spoon, And humming a colorful marching tune, Mr. Shimp stirred lively and long, Keeping time to his sprightly song. When the tire 'neath the kettle burned low, Quick little Kathryn was there to go Chasing over the hills and dales After some nice dry wooden rails. Mr. Gruenewald spun great tales While stuffing the fire with Kathryn's rails: Tales of the war his grandpap was in, And how they did things way back when. Then Toby and Stew linked arms and sang, And the echoes of their voices rang And mixed with the sound of Gruenewald's voice, To make a very confusing noise. But Mr. Fox and Mr. Newsom Thought the smell of the brew was gruesome, So they asked permission of Mr. Platz li they please could go and play some catch? And he said Yes and ran for the bleachers, Therefore ignoring the rest of the teachers: 10 But Mr. Young caught the scent of a bet And followed up: they may be there yet, For one bet on Fox and one on Newsom: And did they make a contrasting twosome Standing out there with boiling blood, This beanpole Slim and his colleague, Spud. And the Misses Iacobs and Smith and Bayles, The English teachers, kept hot on the trails Of misused verbs that kept flying around: Stamping the creatures down into the ground. While Miss Culton sat down by the fire And dreamed that she heard a white-robed choir, As she slowly walked up the aisle of the church With a rose in her hair, and her heart all a lurch. ' And Bette Bails, feeling romantic too, Sat down by her side and stared into the brew. Meanwhile McSwane ran around in a trot For once, snapping pictures without using Scott. Then Mr. Walker found Miss Burgoyne's bike: And since she was off on a G. A. A. hike, He pedalled around for a while all right, But the light of the fire must have injured his sight: For he rode straight into the pot of brew And spilled every drop of the tasty stewl When I woke from my dream, I searched for the mess, But Iohn must have cleaned it up, I guess.
