PERCYTS DREAM GIR1. I love that girllw These were the astounding words of Percy Pickemup, a Senior at R. H. S. I love that girl, Percy repeated. Her eyes are blue as vitriol, her brows as black as charcoal, her lashes are as drooping as Charles', the expounder of the gas law, her nose is as dramatic and morbid as sulphur dioxide, her lips are as inviting and elusive as the fourth dimen- sion, her chin is as rounded as a stirring rodg her throat is of the whiteness of before-the-war sugarg her voice is as gurgling and musical as soda pop. At times her wit is biting as sulphuric acid and her tongue as unstable as phosphorus, but again, her very presence is as refresh- ing as spirits of ammonia. I love that girll Ah, she is perfection personihedg she is my ideal, my dream girl, I love that girl.', Absently, Percy ignited a tank of hydrogen and air. Still absently, he was blown into space. lt has been reported that lXliss Collier is writing a novel entitled The Klystery Woman of Room Nine. 7' If she expresses herself on paper as voluminously as she does in her classes, the novel will be a five Volume creation. Kliss Sheakley has accepted a position as chaufferine with one of the air trans- port lines. She says that the clouds are her natural element. hliss Porter expressed an opinion on the presidential election. She thinks that one of the twenty possible candidates may be elected. Kliss Pennefeather has asserted that she has received shorthand notes from Klars. Xlr. Sanders has, after ten months' study, discovered the geological reason why the Lower Assembly clock stopped last winter. Miss Hood had a severe headache yesterday. She accidentally ate a piece of her own pie. A Xlr. Leicht will open a gymnasium next October. Courses in modern jazz piano playing will be offered with a less stren- uous side issue of wrestling. Miss Pope and Miss Neitzel are the proud and happy owners of a Ouija board. They hold a seance every day in Room 10 at 4:00 o'clock. While ascending the north stairs last Thursday, lXliss Skewes slipped through a crack in the flooring and fell to the ground. VVe have discovered by recent experi- ments that certain teachers have a peculiar aversion to dolls and huge hand- kerchiefs. During the tests, the patients registered such a high degree of dis- approval, that all girls in the vicinity seemed in danger. lXIrs. VVhitaker has had a victrola in- stalled in the office which she plays when- ever a tardy pupil enters. The victrola asks in a mournful tone, Are you .ture you didn't oversleep?'l VVC have positive information to the effect that hliss lrvine is writing a book, 'iUuija Messages from Kly Great Grand- auntf' From past experiences we know that lXIiss Slackis idea of a fine time is to be alone with a good listener. Ouija has told us Miss DuFour's polit- ical beliefs, but We're not telling. Qllbunk There is a boy in our school Wiho is so wondrous wise, That purple is the color He chooses for his ties. He entered the Assembly VVith purple tie and grin, But when the teacher saw him, He walked right out again. This boy who goes to our school Is all out of luck. If you would like to know some more, Address a note to Chuck.
