Th« Hiiiajamptr JUNIOR JUDGMENT DAY Still was the study hall, bleak, and cold And all the pupils sleeping sat; At five-to-ten broke forth a light Winged Victory tumbled from her height, The kids awoke, their heads did ache For the night before they had danced till late. A mighty shriek did rend the air As they looked and saw Saint Peter there, They all rushed from their places With sleepy looking faces And into the school yard ran. There they saw Saint Peter Beside an Areola heater He took out a list And suddently said, “Hist!” Taking the kids in an alphabetic way These are the things he went on to say, “Into heaven Albert cannot come Because in geometry he is dumb And on a harp he cannot strum. Bertha Rosenblatt—she won’t do— She likes to dance and car ride too, And cars in heaven are very few. Sally Hall goes with the rest For although she passed the heavenly test, She likes her saxophone the best. William Vaughan takes a downward fare, As for Maricate he does deeply care, And she has already gone down there. All you kids who are left here with me Think you’ll get up to heaven I see But just watch what I do with this key.” So up he got, and led the way. “Now for your sins you all shall pay; You used to laugh at the thought of dooms-day.” He unlocked a large and heavy door And all the kids set up a roar. They saw geometry on wall and floor. He pushed the mob into the room In spite of the way they did rave and fume Their terrible doom— Was to do geometry forever. —LAURA KEAYS, ’26 27
