B' H- 5' Ghz Qlnmet IEIZIJ Ihr Busts' Glnrner 'l'llA'l' 20 UN THE TOWER Uh, the day before was lonely, And the night was awful dark, And we'd beaten Heyburn o11ly, Just before this dangerous lark. lt was midnight o 'er the city, And the town was fast asleep, W'hen two Seniors bold and witty Sealed the tower tall and steep. 'llhen with brush and paint ai-plenty, And with skill that knows no peer, Un the tank they painted '20, 'Twins their gftllluiltlilll year. 'I'beu with heartfelt satisfaction, And with glee that knew no bounds, tU'er this unexpected aetionj 'l'hey descended to the ground. And that '20 on the tower, Stood for innny and nmny a day, And it was an inspiration 'llo the Seniors on their Way. And the elassnien covming later, When they see that '20 there, Will uphold their banners better, And unfurl them in the air. He sipped from her lips sweet neetzlr, As under the moon they sat: And wondered if ever another man, Haul drunk from :1 mug' like that.

R. IH. S. fthe Qlnmet l9Zll A PSALM ON HIGH SCHOOL LIFE Tell me 11ot in mournful numbers High sohool's easy as it seems, For the student Hunks that slumbers And with tests ends up his dreams. High school 's hard and you must learn Long before you graduate, And a diploma if you earn it, VVill be waiting at the gate. In the world 's great field of knowledge, High school is a splendid start, And you cannot get through college, 'Fill right here you do your part. And our teachers all remind us, NVe must work instead of josh, And departing leave behind us, Inspiration for the frosh. .i LOVIC 'S PARADISE. NVe were coming from the picnic, And wandering o 'er the land, The 'moon was shining brightly, I held her little-shawl. Yes, I held her little shawl, How fast the evening flies, We spoke in gentle tones of love, I gazed into her-lunch basket. I gazed into her lunch basket, I wished I had a taste, Here sat my little charmer, My arm around her-umbrella. I'lIIlIJI'2lCIllg her umbrella, That charming little miss, lier eyes so full of mishief, I shyly stole a-sandwich. it
