He had 'na taught a lesson, a lesson, A lesson, but barely one When the critic teacher said to him, My boy, as a teacher - yer done. O long, O long, has he studied With books, paper and pen, But studying has not always been Confined to his room. For long, long at the basketball, With P.N.S. girls to win. And long, long at the hockey rink, His studies grew mighty thin. Half o'er, half o'er the year are we, The lessons are drab and deep. The long time at Normal that he's spent He might as well have been asleep. So now this tale draws to its close, fUnlike F. B. when rings the bell.J Perhaps with other grads we'll make Good teachers yet - for who can tell. -ORVAL REYNOLDS. i wk T Best Wishes from Sanitary Ice Supply 836 Water Street T Peterborough, Ont.

Defense Counsel John Lewis began then to - ah, here is a late bulletin issued at 11.40 p.m. to-night. It reads: The Jury returned at 11.31 p.m. and announced the following verdict-'We the jury, find the accused not guilty as charged'. Justice Woodruif dismissed the prisoner but was obviously vcry displeased with the verdict and announced that he would order an early investigation into rumours that there had been gross perjury on the part of several witnesses and that at least three of the jurors had accepted bribes. The trial is over but what will yet happen to Foim III remains to be Seen. This is John Grylls wishing them all well but warning thtm to keep away from his girl. SIR NORMAL STUDENT A student sits in Harris0n's bar Drinking a fizzling coke, Oh whar will I get my lesson plan So's my teaching won't be like a joke? Then up and spake another voiceg Sat on the student's side: Sir Woody taught a lesson to-day, Why not use his as a guide? The student has written a broad lesson And studied it with his eye. He took it to G. L. to mark Whose look did make him sigh. To Queen Alex, to Queen Alex, Queen Alex o'er the street, He and his little plan No masters he hopes to meet. On the tirst question the student asked A loud laugh laughed the class, But a glaring look from the critic And the humorous side did pass. Oh, who has done this horrible thing, This ill deed done to me? Was the plea of J.E.R.M. when The lesson he did see. Make haste. make haste, my students all And rack your rusty brain Or ere come Departmental tests And a whole year's work in vain! Late last fall he started out An honour lesson to teach, But now 'tis February And a pass, he's yet to reach. Page Thirty-two
