cm E “C. ID. A O you “C. W. A. How you haunt us night and day! In our dreams at night You fill us with such fright. Where we should see flowers bloom, We see nothing but your brush and broom: And instead of perfume fair Rise peculiar odors, O, so rare! As we ramble down the hall Your crazy wires sure enthrall; And your ladders here and there Are the cause of many a night-marc; When we approach a stairs We find a sign that stares: It would be hard to find the way Even in the natural light of day; Your many scaffolds so broad and high Seem almost to reach the sky; And the cherubs climbing up and down Seem, in our dreams, like circus clowns. But after the horrors of the night We greet and hail you with delight: For when you come to school each day You’re worth much more than we could pay; You bring just lots of extra joys To all us doleful girls and boys; Without you there would be no passes Nor any need for tardy classes; There would be no frequent lack of bells That hourly sound like funeral knells; There would never be a change of classroom Giving a moment’s release from our doom; There would be no constant noise and din That make the teacher s voice grow dim; There would no closed stairways be That make it easy and plain to see The long way is the only way Tho sometimes it does not pay! The strange attractions in the hall Make even the best of teachers stall You give us all kinds of excuses And save us from getting the duces”. Yes, life would indeed be dull and gray If there were no C. W- A.” And so, to you, the ”C. W. A. Blessings on thee, again we say! [24]
