There once was a doctor named Luce, Who always was wont to refuse To her classes to go Without sixty or so Of l-oolfs which she never could use. Professor Bosworth's strong right hand Is wont to rule with mild command The theologs of Scoundrcl hall, Married and single, great and small. i Professor Caslccy's running a farm, If he does no good he'll do no harm. Perhaps he'll start some private schools For lads he's fired for smashing rules. O'er frivolous Con girls pomped and gay, One, Mrs. Woodford has the say, And when they act a bit untoward She sends them to the bpinsters' Board. Prof. Morrison is a witty wight. List these words from his tactful tongue: My wife like a Madonna looked tonight, Like a Prima Donna has sung.

THE GOOD OLD OBERLIN This is the sorrowful story Told by our Madame J., When she talks with her old-time cronies Of the Oberlin of today. 't There go a man and a maiden Together as sure as you liveg Not a sign of rain in the heavens! What earthly excuse can they give? Sundays, can you believe it? The girls go wherever they please, Not a single chaperon near them As they stroll off by twos and by threes. If, oh appalling idea, A man had invaded their nook, They' turned their backs straightway upon him, Dared not to speak nor to look. Now, in the old times, the good times, If they wished to stir out of the door, They went to the grove after dinner To come back precisely at four. For to speak to a man on a Sunday Is a deed as distressing and dire, CI know you'll agree when I say itj As walking with one after choir. Free from all rules are the home girls, 'Tis thc worst thing that yet has been done, For can mothers control their own children As well as a dean who has none ? 15 This is the sorrowful story Told by our Madame J., ' As she talks with her old time cronies Of the Oberlin of today.
