Not only was the choice of the comedy most fortunate, but the artistic ability of each of the seventeen young ladies and gentlemen taking part was quite remarkable. Each of the characters wars splendidly presented, and all who witnessed the play agreed that Steamboat is very fortunate in possessing such dramatic ability.—Routt County Sentinel. “Kicked Out of College” was presented by the Senior class of the Steam- boat Springs High school at the Orpheum theater Saturday and Monday nights, the playhouse being packed on both occasions. It is a clever comedy and proved a splendid vehicle to display the talents of the versatile members of the class of 1917. There are a number of especially good characters, and all were so well handled that it would be unjust to particularize. Music was furnished by the orchestra of the Methodist' church.—The Steamboat Pilot.

Clasts iPoem IRENE DISMUKES. The hearts of the class of '17 Are filled with thoughts all serene; Tomorrow shall we all depart Tnto the world’s great busy mart. We’ve had our studies of different things And often thought we moved in rings. And sometimes thought we’d surely fall. Out by hard work we’ve conquered all. There’s old Algebra, so dreary! How oft we pondered weak and weary. To get those problems was our goal Out. alas, could not. to save our soul. When we were sure xy was home Here came the pesky . all in a foam, Calling loudly for attention— Oh. dear! We deserve a pension! And when we worked with might and main Next morn at class we got a pain When Mr. Oaker, in accents loud. Said: “My, you are a brilliant crowd!” And then came Caesar, monster dire. To brave his wrath we did aspire. Miss Clark, with looks of blank despair. Thought she would like to pull our hair. Mr. Thompson, Science, Writing, too, If any one’s better, tell us who? In debate he always doth hide; He’s neutral and on neither side. Miss Keller’s class in Domestic Science With food and taste doth make an alliance; Sometimes we make a terrible muss But. then, of course, she doth never fuss. Miss Stukey taught us lots of Dutch ; Really we have learned so much Some might be taken for a spy; If so, from fright we’ll surely die. In foot ball, track and basket ball We’ve never had to fail at all, For Burton’s always right at hand Good points is he so sure to land.
