. - . get ' xQ!s have 5 ' - Gosh, says he, this one is hard, I can't see how ye get 56 yards. P John, as from a swoon awoke, Gee, says he, that was a joke. Hang that book bag on the wall, Let it be the spider's banquet hall. I'll carry my books in my hand this morn. All that dream was about the ninth grade I'm only too glad it was but a shade. I didn't pass a single exam, I racked my brains, I had them shorn Oh, I'm glad it was a sham. I'll pass the ninth grade if I have to-- Gee, But this is the end of this little ditty. DOLORES KAss, KATHRYN SCHERER, '3o. THE FRESI-IMEN Green little Freshies, green as can be Picking off plums from the knowledge tree. Latin and Algebra, English and such Shall we ever amount to much? We study hard and work with a will To see how much of our brains we can fill For Freshies have a reputation, you see, For being as green as green can be. This reputation we'l1 surely live down- To this dear old High School we'1l bring renown. For where in the world can a class be found Who can tum a whole school upside down? We point with pride to our record in class And then remark, our attendance at Mass, ' When it comes to instructions-Oh, how we shine For Father has said we're up to the time. Now all of these things considered together We'll make our class seem better and better, We've taken the dread out of life you see For green little Freshies, green as can be.

, ics' 4 g, - A RX A, 1 V at-QE' - B- It was morning on hill and stream and tree, But dark, so dark as dark can be, When another Freshman, one Roger D. Entered the portals of the building of rule That went by the name of Lourdes High School. But oh! for this sad, sad little boy The breaking of the season of fun Had come as a shock to this little oneg He'd fully enjoy his two months' leave And wished for two months more like Steve. But two months more was out of mention Now was the time for study and 'tention. II. Part p Down swept exams from the teacher's desk From books which ten months' wear had worn. On every page and problem deep, They had heaped much print like golden corn, And when they were whirled on Law1'ence's brain He used much paper but forfeited his gain. From blackboards black and paper white It carried a shiver like a long winter's night. Bob L. heard it and built a roof 'Neath which he could house him, exam-proof, And so did Bill and Clarence L. From writing exams they were held aloof. A boy, John Goray, fat but sharp, Of his brains, history makes a harp On which to the tune of ninety per cent And a hundred in algebra, what an ascent! The final exams with their monotone Make an impression all of their own. There was never a sound from boy or girl And never a note would a naughty boy hurlg It was at the time of the vicious exam And many a boy was making a sham Of writing a dreadful hard English exam. There were four rules for the comma More for the dash and when ' Paul Crowley was writing his hash, then Edward Kieff, that very bad boy Who wants to revolve to his little heart's joy, Was struggling to interpret a colon and comma. Eugene Golueke, that fat little scholar, Was making a kick, gee, he did holler, His idleness now, his love for pool Was making a kick against the Golden Rule. A Q 1, ' . 5143 5 .
