Our Side Show tSENIOR BOYSJ Ol Ladies and Gentlemen: Kindly direct your attention to this platform for a few moments, as I wish to present to you one of the star features of our grand exhibi- tion. Here before you, you see the world- tamous Bunk, known in the catalogue of freaks as the Human Wishbone. His legs measure four feet in length and are separated at the knees by the extreme dis- tance of twelve inehes. We defy the world to produce his equal.

Making Money Oh, the troubles and trials of the 4a class! Although we think we did well to pass, Still long 'bout commencement there comes a feelin' That almost makes us feel like stealinl Money! Money! oh, where eau We find it? VVe can't do anything without money behind it. First we tried a stunt by Miss Bewley And this was very good, truly, It was, but alas, for the poor senior class, The money didn't eolne in very fast, And again we attempted to make it, And we thought a meek wedding would take it, So two of our elass, reluctantly said They would play bride and groom with much dread. Everyone liked it the minute they came in the door, But still we must have money, some more! So dinner was served, and oh, it was good, And everyone ate it, as everyone should. Times, though hard, grow better for us, We feel inclined to stop the fuss, And now we're happy, all the nine plus three For the Kalendar, certainly will be. M. W., '15 59
