THE TOWER LIG-HT The housewife kneads her dough In a handy wooden trough, And bakes it through and through Until it's done enough. The swing hangs from the bough, The wind dies to a sough, The rocks are lined with chough, All seated on the Clough The sportsman swings his shough In waters of the lough, That late were high and rough, But now are just a slough. Q.i The Dinosaur Behold the mighty dinosaur, Famous in prehistoric lore, Not only for his weight and strength But for his intellectual length. You will observe by these remains The creature had two sets of brains- One in his head Cthe usual placeD, The other at his spinal base. Thus he could reason a priori As well as a osteriorig No problem bjothered him a bit: He made both head and tail of it. So wise was he, so wise and solemn, Each thought filled just a spinal column If one brain found the pressure strong, It passed a few ideas along, If something slipped his forward mind 'Twas rescued by the one behindg And if in error he was caught, He had a saving afterthoughtg As he thought twice before he spoke He had no judgments to revoke, For he could think without congestion, Upon both sides of every question. Oh, gaze upon this model beast, Defunct ten million years at least. Anonymous 17'

Love-have romances, You won't be sorry- E'en though your smile is And your eyes are full. Thank the heavens You've been doing. You have dreams- Memories linger and You'll soon find You are glad You've been free- You've been jostled- You've been hustled About. And yet, forced You know, you've been in it! You've lived! So, do something! M. M., Soplo. 2. 9l After the Storm Lit. Digest 1of23f19o9, from Troy Time: The farmer drives his plough In a soil that's stiff and tough, His horse is lame as hough And has a wheezing cough. -16
