De boogey man ,ll git ye Ef ye don't-watch-out!,' But this, we must admit, is not as affectionate a send-off as the title above portend. Enough of gloomy warnings. Let's try another tack. Our condolences, January Nineteen. VVe know it breaks your heart to leave the dear old school, with the grapevine clustering 'round, and the birds singing, and the brook flowing, tra la tra la,-we know it because your Class History says so. Cheer up January Nineteen, the worst is yet to come-no! we mean, every cloud has a silver lining. You see it's this way. When a class graduates, by custom it repents its sins, fas then it is safe in so doingj. Here's the silver lining. This may be a sad, sad, parting, this graduation from S. H. S., but if you are properly re- pentive, consider what an opportunity you have before you to mend your ways and treat your future teachers as kindly and gently as you now piously wish you had treated the S. H. S. Faculty! But again, this reproachful attitude cannot be called fond If at first .U January Nineteen, our beloved comrade fSob stuffj, you leave us now to enter more fully into the great battlefield of life. Some of you will go on with this glorious education, some must needs labor, some of you will fail, some of you will succeed, Q D fThis space reserved for a teardropj. But this we know, wherever you are, O January Nine- teen, your education in this game of life will go on. If as the highest class in our school you have acquired undue self-assurance, a quick descent to the status of microscopic Freshmen will cure that-heavens what an affectionate sentiment! O What's the use of this highfalutin bunk! Let's be natural! So long, Jan. '19, old top. The best of luck! See you later-after we too have walloped those last exams and have survived a verbose lecture by a nonsensical undergraduate. There is a conceited young ed, Quite swelled, I am sure, in the head, For f'weakly lie,ll publish Abominable rubbish, Still hoping we don't shoot him dead. fSigned, A Daft VVallHowerj 13
