THE 1925 TATLER THE PAGE PROCESSION The Seventh Form were asked to provide a part of the entertainment for the Christmas dinner for the trustees by bringing in the boar7s head. First a bugle sounded in the distance, which was the kitchen. Then came two brilliantly dressed pages carrying large holly wreaths. Behind came a third page with the hoar,s head on a large silver platter. She was accompanied by two candle bearers. Following the boarvs head was a procession of pages singing the Oxford carol, WThe Boaras Head in Hand Bear I? SPORTS Last fall we had three baseball games with the Eighth Form. Of course they beat us badly. The captain-ball games took place in the winter.

Patched up and scrubbed up, the whole for- lorn band Danced gaily, with pigtails awag. ROBIN HOOD AND BIG FAT JIM A man came walking down the path And it was Robin Hood; He met a tanner, Big Fat Jim, And fought him in the wood. They found them a kiddy car minus a wheel And a no-handled cart near collapse. In and out mid the dancers they whirled with a squeal tWhat manners an orphanage lacksll The big man knocked good Robin down, Which made him feel full sore; itCome, will you join my goodly band And roam the greenwood oieriw Their matron was straight-backed, prim and a freak, With solemn, sour face and a frizz. She shook a stiff finger policing the meek And Orphanty Annieis awhiz. iiRight gladly will I join your band.H The tanner he agreed; uBut Pve a wife and mother dear Whom I must clothe and feed? At quarter of ten, the orphans stopped fun lToo had only orphans a whilel Cinderellas reversed, to fine homes they spun In limousines chauffeured in style. MARJORIE Oscooo. iiBring them along? good Robin said, iiAnd they can mend our clothes; And we will have a merry feast, With many a toast and oath? FRANCES LEE. THE SEVENTH FORM BANQUET One day the Seventh Form had a banquet. The menu consisted of Partridge, Pease, and Beans, which were cooked by the Best Cook, and her Thrall, who used the Bellows to great advantage in getting a good fire started. She was also educated in the Stew-art. While they were eating their dessert, which consisted of the renowned Kemp,s ice cream, a Conary was sing- ing sweetly over the Lea. The guests were: Misses Osburn, Stimson, Ricker, Osgood, de Vienne, Hazlett, Geraghty, Strout, and Winton. ELEANOR BELLOWS. Twenty-Seven
