THE ECHO. The Freshman for his greenness, The Sophomore for his wit, The Junior for his meanness, And the Senior for his—quit. Used by Our Best “Forget it—cast it away.”’—Hawthorne’s Marble Faun. “She was a respectable old guy.”—Thack- eray’s Vanity Vair. “It’s a sure thing.”’—Goldsmith’s She Stoops to Conquer.” “Twenty-three”—Dicken’s Tale of Two Cities. “Gave Hector a gift—a gilt nutmeg—a lemon.”—Shakespeare’s Love’s Labors Lost. “Cut in and win.”’—Thackeray’s Vanity Fair. Mr. Steele (economics)—‘Mr. Abeel, what is the difference between capital and labor ?” “Hap.”—“If Snyder owed me $25, it would be capital—for him; but if I tried to get it back, that would be labor—for me.” Howard Gilkey—“I really think that when my brain develops, I shall return to High School and take up the higher scien- ces. These simple studies are only for the ordinary mind.” Laugh and the teacher laughs with you, Laugh again and you laugh alone; The first case is the teacher’s joke, The second when the joke’s your own. oe —Ex. Paul C.—“You are as full of airs as a mu- sic-hox.” Nan G.—“Well, even if I am, I don’t go with a crank.” Mother Bird—‘“Run along and play, now; be careful you don’t get run over by any of those flying machines.” Algebra Let X equal a dog; Let Y equal a meat-chopper ; Then X divided by Y equals sausage. Mr.. Jeffries—“Robert, name the zones.” Robert Slyter (Freshie)—‘“There are two kinds of zones—masculine and feminine. The masculine are both temperate and in- temperate, and the feminine are both horrid and frigid.” Miss Crane—‘What do you get when you drop a lighted match in to a bottle of hydro- gen or oxygen—water?”’ Earl W.—“No; you get a busted bottle.” Soliloquy of a Poor Speller If an S and an I and an O anda U With an X at the end spell Su; And an E and a Y and E spell I, Pray what is a speller to do? Then, if also an S and anI andaG And an H E D spell cide, There’s nothing left for a speller to do, But to go and commit siouxeyesighed! —Ex.
