THE SECRET OF OUR SUCCESS QAS REVEALED BY A MEMBER or '21j Listen, underclassmen, and you shall hear Of the darkly deeds of the cavaliers Of the Senior Class of twenty-one. VVho can forget those years of fun? Years when it was our highest aim To help Miss McCormick. most worthy dame. Prevent the nineteen-twenty-one girls From cutting off their beautiful curls. Years when we tried our very best To give the worthy Miss Stauffer a rest, And study each evening after weid sup. Years when we worked from evening till dawn Only, nenit day, to find our notebooks gone. fThat. Mr. Bartlett, is what we told you. And, of course, whate'er '21 says is true.j Years when we, reported to the lab. Each time we should, in order to dab About with acids and bases and salts, To furnish explosives to blow up all vaults. Years when we tried our best to suppose 'llhat one 0' those angles equals one o' those. NVhen we learned all of our props by heart, And could give them all if given a start. Years when we did all of our work. And, by bluffing. we'd never shirk. Ah, we were the students diligent,- And that's why WC,1'C so intelligent. So, if it's wise you want to be, Follow our footsteps and you shall see, VVith what gusto and acclaim You will leave these Halls of Fame. T THE CITY OF THINGS FORGOT In the land of Silence A mighty ci-ty lies, And itgeye-like windows Stare up at starless skies. Its people all are deadg Its might has passed away: Its history is unread, Its gods forgot today. NVhat is this citadel, Whose walls in silence rot? Listen while I tell - 'tis The city of Things Forgot. F. XVALKER, 21
