THE PURPLE AND GOLD On a paper written by William Wilson: We the people of the United States of Amer- ica should look to a boy as a person who does his work today and not tomorrow because he does not think of putting off anything he can do today. for tomorrow. This paper was marked late. Mr. Preston said blithely one day in chemis- try: VVhen I was walking down the street in Flint, Michigan, with no coat or tie or anything on, I--- For some unknown reason he stopped sud- denly and blushed violently. That may be all right in Flint, but it just isn't done 111 Milton, Mr. Preston. Definition on Eugene Burrouglfs history pa- per: Lombago are the early German tribes. -----s What Would Happen to Our School? If Rouleau-Willis companionship broke up? If Irene, Connie and Louise stopped talking in class? If Irene stopped grinning? If I-Iarold didn't come in class late? If Pauline and Jennie forgot their ladylike manners?

WHEN DADDY MILKS THE COW We hide down in the cellar VV hen daddy milks the cow, She's such a fancy kicker Do we have fun? and how! She kicks the milk pail over And sometimes poor old Dad, And you should see him jitterbug When he gets tearing mad. He must have been to church a lot For no man I declare, Can use so many saintly words Or make a better prayer. We don't have to go to the movies For our entertainment now, We just hide down in the cellar And watch daddy milk the cow. JUNE WENTWORTH, '-12.

Hosser to Alphonse: I had a beard like yours once, but when I realized how it made me look I cut it off. VanVliet: I had a face like yours once, and when I realized that I couldn't cut it off, I grew this beard to cover it. In English class we were writing news stories.
