Dear little students of 1915, Not much of this school life, dear ones have you seen, So take this advice in a kindly way, For the Sophies must always have their say. 2. We cannot but notice your blushes and sighs. When you hear a rude giggle at your sweaters and ties, But never you mind, dear freshmen, just wait. And perhaps you will be Sophomores at some future date. 3. And now little freshmen with this word, we will close. That you bring to us Sophomores all the tales of your 565;----- For once you know, we were fresh- .men, too, And maybe (?) we will sympathize with you.
