I served ten years. Gray grew thy hair and old Ye knew no bliss: Truly those years foretold Things you would miss! Now our Marines and Army boys Can work machines and tanks, as toys. Thev use our guns tor more than noise— In war. Here comes our Navy, dressed in blue. They're gallant, daring, bold, and true. They dislike Japs and Germans, too. As war Retreat' you Nazis and you Japs With all your under handed traps We re not such pleasant, friendly chaps In war. The sweat from the toiling Dried thick on my brow. Those years spent in coining. And what have I now. Thy looks are all taken. The grave is thy home: I’ll try not be shaken. I'll never more roam. Thy name lies before me. Tngraved on that stone: A shudder runs through me— I feel quite alone. Ye knew not I loved thee. But I loved thee well: Tong, long I loved thee. Too deeply to tell. In sinning we met: In sinning did part. But please try not forget I still have a heart. And when I do meet thee After earth’s years. How shall I greet thee? With whisky and beers. —By Edward Snooks. WAR When we turn on our radio. Or go to see a picture show. The thing we hear and see. you know. Is war! Our soldiers marching down the street. The scenes of vast Chinese defeat. The joy when parted families meet In war. The little British children’s prayer 'That God protect them from the air. And watch o’er them with loving care Through war. Heil Hitler! is the German's way Of praising Hitler night and day: He is their Fuehrer—so they say— Blind war! The R. A. F. across the sea. Our F. D. R. and O. C D. How they lend aid to you and me In war. Unite. Americans, unite. And join your neighbors in the fight, l or we must make Pearl Harbor right By war. Our attitude is not of hate. Nor do we wish to dominate: Our purpose is to liberate From war. So—going down town? Stop on your way And buy some stamps and bonds today. To help the good old U.S.A. Through war. —By Marian Simpson THE LADY FROM NEW YORK A lady from New York came down for a rest To the farm right beside o' Aunt Jen’s. And she always complained that the city was best 'Cause she couldn't see the use of the hens. i They toT her th' hens was to lay eggs ta eat. So she up and quit eatin’ ’em then. And they toT her that pig was from where they got meat. So she'd eat nothin' out of a pen. She foun' out some way that the milk of a cow Was the milk that each morning she drank. And toT poor Aunt Jen she was leavin' right now. (Which was probably bes’ for the crank). The lady from New York went back home next day. An' they never did see her again. An’ o’ Uncle Elmer would laugh and he’d say “Cause I can't see the use of that hen.

Ed Snook: Yes. but what can I do about it?” Dean: You can squeeze the Dickens out of her. Pauline Beegle: And do I get a raise after I've been here a while?” Boss: Certainly, if your work proves satisfactory.” Pauline: Ah. I knew there was some catch to it. Lawrence Hilldore (boss): Yell out if you want anything. Steno. Betty O'Connor (blushing) : Wouldn't it be better if I whispered ? Jack Kessler: But you guaranteed this watch to last me a lifetime. George Holman: Certainly, certainly.

Mr. Philson: “Are we all descendants of a monkey?” Harry Rhodes: No. we are not. My folks came from Wales. Father: How are you getting along with your arithmetic, my boy ?” Art Nease: Well. I've learned to add up the naughts, but the figures still bother me.” Eugene Holtcr: Will you let me have five dollars for a few days?” Bob Smith: Sorry. I've only got four.” Eugene Holter: That's all right, you can owe me the other one. Paul Beegle: “Cheer up! Things might be a lot worse.” Charles Mallory: Yes. and I'm afraid they will be.” The best man always wins—except at weddings. 43 The Racina THE TYREES' There is war. and innocent lives will be lost lives of high school students. But can the work of a nation so strong, so vast, so great, be lost by war? Having the companionship of so many students, living beside them and watching them, we know that this shall never be a nation without scholars. Its aim and purpose, as set forth by our forefathers, was one of freedom, the right to worship, and the beneficial public school system. Remembering this, can anyone be more fortunate than we who have the privilege of living near this institution of learning, the Racine High School?
