THE NORTHLAND ECHO 61 A DAY WITH IIA OUR MOTTO E. Saunders We rise in the morning full of zest And go to school to do our best. Out of the house at five to nine And on to school in double quick time. It's very, very late we readily see. The locker room's jammed, As crammed as crammed can be. The first bell's gone-the second bell goes, Oh! Mathematics gosh and Latin prose, We tear along the corridor and with a smile Greet Miss Wales to whom we're very docile. After the assembly to the lab we march in style Erect is our posture, but we're talking all the while. Science class is over, our books are packed with glee, The English class is next, it's there that we make whoopee, Stamping in the class room, our books banged on the desk, We settle down and try to be each one of us a pest. The Latin class is next, all the students they look grim, Although a charming personage is waiting them within. We are very slack on homework, catch up another dayg But when four o'clock rolls around we pupils have to pay By writing out on foolscap why we have time to play. English comes again and We settle down to chat About the weather and the season and this and all of that. Then Mathematics comes around with angle and with square, And our minds they set a'thinking why this stuff we have to bear. Twelve o'clock is striking. a mad dash through the door, Shoving, pushing, juggling books along the corridor, Our dinner has been eaten, we're on our way to school, Not to be late, not to be late is IIA's golden rule. The afternoon soon passes till comes our daily French With cute Monsieur de Hardwick a'setting on the bench. The afternoon is over and so ends the day. A day I hope you have enjoyed with our good old IIA Anonymous. May smiling be your motto, Though your heart is filled with pain. For behind a mask of sunshine You can never see the rain. When the clouds begin to gather And the sky becomes o'er cast, Remember all the little joys That helped you through the past. Don't frown upon the future, Let smiling be your prayer, And you'1l always, flnd a host of friends With whom your smile to share. Evelyn Moore. SOME OF IIA'S ALPHABET A-is for Avery, a very bright lass, B-is for Byrnes, a girl in our class. C-is for Coburn, a bright, happy girl, D-is for Desjardins, a girl in a whirl. E-is for Edgar, a boy's first name, F-is for Fodor, who will sure come fame, G-is for Gray, who in maths is O.K. H-is for Hartrick, who will marry some day. to Jfis for Johnston, who has a nice smile, K-is for Keizer, who is shy all the while. L-is for Louden, Whose hair we all like. M-is for Mallory, who has a new bike. O-is for Odynski, who never says boo, P-is for Peverley, who looks shiny and DEW. R-is for Robinson, who likes to skate, S-is for Skellern, who always hasa date. T-is for Thornton, who doesn't like latin, W-is for Winters, who likes to wear satins. And now this poem must come to an end, For there are no more names That we can either borrow or lend. By B. Lewis and J. Edgar. IIA should be well remembered after they have all passed on because every- thing they do is eternal or everlasting. lMiss Walton: Girls stop that ever- lasting giggling. D Two minutes later 1Mis5 Walton: Girls stop that eter- nal talking. J Teacher: Why didn't you do your homework? Pupil: I gave it up for Lent.

THE NORTHLAND ECHO 63 FIFTEEN PERIODS A WEEK She is such a charming person, She listens to each one. I bet she often wishes though That we would stop wagging our tongues. Now girls, you've been very noisy, Something has got to be done. Things can't go on and on like this, For days and days to come. You're headed for a detention, This talking has got to cease. And if you don't find it possible, You'll all remain in your seats. And so the days pass by, And it hasn't come to pass. The detention is still waiting For IIA-That's our class. E. Moore. WHAT WE HAVE AND WHAT WE HAVEN'T Campbell but no doctor Byrnes but no Bob Winters but no summers Mackie but no house Lewis but no Joe Jessie but no James Barley but no oats Johnston but no wax Ward but no nurse McGaughey but no little Stockdale but no ice Wallace but no F.D. Fosdick but no books Ba-nks but no money Torrance but no dentist Dixie but no cotton. Teacher: Mary explain the meaning of vacuum. Mary: Well, I have it in my mind, but I just can't explain it, IIA had been drinking in French for 20 minutes. As a result they had the giggles. Hic, hic. Mr. Hardwick: Now girls, after you are sobered up we'll continue the lesson. Teacher: Who was the first man to sail around the world? Dorothy: Drake-the old goose. Mr. Hardwick: Grace what does 'cher' mean? Grace fafter some hesitationl: Oh- -ah-dear. Mr. Hardwick: Yes, DANCING LESSONS FREE Apply at once in Mr. Hardwick's music periods. All kinds of dancing taught from the hop to good old waltzing. IIC Collegiate Miss Morgan M. Constant TI-PERE'S N0 FORM LIKE OURS We are forty-five in our class of 2C Forty-five of good company, Forty-five who will all agree, There was never a form like our 2C! We have McIntyre, with his corny jokes, Guenette, who gets all teachers' goats, While Eddy sits back and grins, and gloats, Over everything that happens. Now Irene is a subject, musically inclined And when playing her piano she leaves Georgie far behind But one go-od thing about it all is Georgie he doesn't mind And Irene wouldn't want to be any place but in 2C! Of course Fred Weegar loves to stare, And Wilma gets in Bebee's hair And Haze1's the gal that's never there But such things do not matter. And now I've given you the life 2C does portray All jitterbugs and sports at night and dozing all next day, Teachers hint that for lethargy 2C is notorious But students think as well as say that old 2C is glorious! Several of the fair damsels of IIC are beginning to believe that Fred Wee- gar is easily amused by flirtatious tactics. Wouldn't it be funny if Bill Eddy were to make a mistake and say those words of endearment to the wrong McGonegal twin? Is there any special reason for Irene Simkin's anxiety that her name would not be coupled with George Cummings' in the school magazine? Does that vacant stare Burrows wears in French period mean that he's thinking of Minnie?
