K is for KISSING, a habit, I’ve heard. That’s conducive to many diseases. If all of our sickness would come in this way. I'm sure that it greatly would please us. L is for LESSONS, which we all love so well. (It hurts my clear conscience that whopper to tell.) If you’d have them come easy, just dig every day, And you'll he quite surprised how the weeks pass away. M for MATHIAS, and that one short name Is a sure guarantee of the Tiger’s great fame; For its handsome appearance is due to her work. Who in tasks overwhelming was ne’er known to shirk. N is for NF.WTON, known better as Prunes.” Who teaches at night school about planets and moons. They meet every evening in Powderhorn Park, And begin their star-gazing as soon as it’s dark. O is for OLSEN, who cannot be beat. For making both ends of the Tiger Hoard meet. Without him our book would have soon gone to smash, For he is the fellow who handled the cash. P is for PERFECT, the marks we would give If the teachers would trade their positions for ours. We’d allow them to whisper and chew gum in class. And each day we’d give them both candy and flowers. Q is a letter that’s not often used, In fact, I fear greatly right now that I’m stuck: So we’ll merely leave out this one verse of my poem. And call it a case of a poet’s hard luck. R is for RIOTS, which often occur In “O Room” down on the first floor, When an argument starts between Cowling and Schultz On Who is to blame for this terrible war?” S is for SENIORS of nineteen-sixteen, The best class that South High school ever has known. Some folks may think they are better than we, Hut we’re from Missouri, we’ve got to be shown. T is for TIME Mr. Kiddlecombe spends In bawling me out about young lady friends. I’m forced to admit that I’ve got quite a crush; Hut my conscience is clear, so why should I blush? U is UNHAPPY, the way that we feel When report cards arc passed for inspection. They show us quite clearly our methods of study Are sadly in need of correction. C 1421

V is for VIC, the minister’s son, Who says the high schools were just built for fun. He's known as a spendthrift; in fact, once a week He takes some young lady to sec the Unique. W is for WALBURG, a punctual lad. Who arrives every morning at just nine o’clock. If some day he'd happen to get here on time, We all would collapse from the terrible shock. X is that troublesome factor we find In books of advanced mathematics; It’s easy to deal with when once you have learned Homogeneous, irrational quadratics. Y is for YOUNGDAHL, remarkably wise, Who loves to debate on Wets versus Drvs.” Our whole city learned of this bright young man's name, Last year in our great county option campaign. Z is for ZERO, a mark we dislike, Yet from which the most of us suffer. They show that at some things we’re really quite poor, Especially as scholar and bluffer. Donts for the Lunch Room. Don’t forget that soup should be seen and not heard. Don't illustrate your conversation with a sword-play of your knife; use your fork with it—more impressive. Don't crumble crackers into your soup; crumble them under your heel on the floor. Don't bend over the table; raise the table with your knees. Don't overload your fork; bring a tablespoon. Don’t surprise anyone by offering to take her tray back to the window for her —safety first. Don’t believe Miss Keatlcy when she says that a straight line is the shortest distance between two points,—remember the lunch room line. Miss Klampe: Who knows the latest news of the war?” Georoy: The Germans arc being defeated. Miss K.: Where did you hear that? G.: “In our French class. I Extract from an essay on Hawthorne: “After his marriage he went to live at the Old Man's. When Miss Michelet advised the cast to gargle with salt water for their sore throats, Reuben Albinson remarked: I tried it once, I tried it twice, Now I'm using Zumalweiss! Miss Stringham: Why do 1 want you to beat time for yourself, instead of keeping time on the seats with my baton? Freshman: So you won’t injure the furniture. “Love One Another. According to Benjamin Youngdahl: Love one and no other. According to Arthur Rosen: Love one or another. According to R. Albinson: Love one and all the others. According to H. Walburg: Loved once. Never again. I! I 144 ]
