I04 THE COLLEGIATE. UPPER SCHOOL BLUES A dashing young blood is our Jerry. A frolicsome lad and a merry. He'll pick up a girl, And go for a whirl. Then take her right back to the ferry. lYe have a young maiden named Y Maggie. I D XX hose tongue IS excessively waggy. She squeaks and she giggles, She laughs and she wiggles. 'Till you'd certainly think she'd get faggy. .Xnd then there's that heart-breaker Lloyd. XX'hom the Happers can't seem to avoid. lYith the ladies our Hick, Has a technique that's slick. And his company's always enjoyed. .-X hard man and rough is our Mait. He lives at a terrible rate. He's out every night. 'l'ill the dawn's early light, .Xnd he rises with mal a la pate. lYhat ho! for the beautiful Gwenny. Her attractions are varied and many. Though she won't bob her hair, Still itls best to beware, For her thoughts are worth more than a penny. Of course we've all heard about Nicol. lt was really a laughable picol. lie wasted his jack, lYhen he hired a hack, But how could he know she was ficol. A rare bird we have in old Steager. His quest after knowledge is eager. He'll sit up till two. All his homework to do, And so's your old man says our Steager. Oh a Hower of creation is Donny. All joking aside she's quite bonny. S-he's a bright little lass, ln the Algebra class, And those theorems are pie for wee Donny. .Xncl then once again we have XYorky. lYhose career has been patchy and jerky. XYe all lirmly believe. That some dav he will leave, So here's to the best of luck XYorky. Now Cecil is head of the Lit. Still he isn't conceited a bit. He's a regular wag, And he edits the mag. And his studies are right in his mit. Our Anne's a scholarly light. At school she's just awfully bright. XYith out having to cram. She knocks off each exam. And her marks are astonishing quite. And Heber has grown of late. To be very hot on debate. XYith that line he could shoot, On the Hudson Bay route He deserved now a far better fate. And now let us finish with Morrow, Tliougli no words that will lit can we borrow. So it won't be a crime. If to make up the rhyme, We call him just Upper School's Sorrowf, P51 X 21 Pk Miss Ferguson- Did you do this essay yourself Lackie? Bill Qabsentmindedly,J- No, Miss Ferguson, father started it but mother had to do it all over again,
