I 1 ' THE REFLECTORIIE 32 4 V Q E I take a slant out the window and see a grey car go whirling past, it returns, I recognize it as the Murder Carvg it stops and out jumps Shapiro. What is he doing? There is something invisible which he starts throwing about in all direc- tions. I-Ie enters the lab, suddenly his throwing is cut short by Wild Mac, who shouts 'cSay, Shap, tie that BULL you're throwing, OUTSIDEI' Shap looks sore but keeps his peace. The room does not feel right, someone is missing, horrors, it is Korn. Korn is gone, I shout, and promptly everyone faints. Larkin who is the first to revive, dives into the extracting room and wheels in the nitrous oxide machine and turns on the oxygen. Everybody recuperates, and work is resumed as usual. It was later discovered that Korn had been downstairs to plank down two bits on account. The time Hies, it is almost five o'clock. Jimmy enters amid much applause and gently warbles, Are youse guys going home tonight? Iwanta clean up . Pantera, the Secretary of the Crabberls Club, grows indignant and reprimands him, and as it is still ONE MINUTE of FIVE, poor Jimmy is ousted out amid the yells and jeers of the Crabbing Brothers. Telephone bell rings, a sweet female voice is transmitted over the wire. Oh, a peach. NO, it is only Miss Bryant asking for the vulcanizers and electric furnaces. The same old gag about the vulcanizers not going up is pulled and the office force falls for it again. Twenty minutes later, Jimmy enters with a young cannon under each arm, a gun in each hand and a sword between his teeth, All outln he hisses, and un- willingly the class retires to the locker room, the quartet singing, 'We Cannot Work, Because Jimmy Fired Us Out. Qpplteb Eunice If a grouch is in the chair, The dentist feels he doesn't care. Pokes a plugger in his lip, Scowls a bit, and says it slippedfl If a sore spot can be found, Says '4It must be cut and ground. Takes the right to kill a nerve, Makes his patient kick and swerve. Here is one that must be pulled, Cause your general health is involved. Next a needle must inject At the neck, cocaine by the peck. Pulls it out, says All is well, While lVIr.

THE REFLECTORiig ' V X E? Qu Qfternoun with '17 Scene-JUNIOR LAB Time-ANY AFTERNOON AT 12:15 As the curtain rises, YVhite, E. L. Jones, Schuster, Pantera, Zackem, Wfeber, Ianne, Catell, and Larkin are seen busily working at their benches. Opening song-UCRAB, BROTHERS, CRABY' Harnish enters with a chew in his face that would choke an ordinary cow. Where in hell's a demonstrator? I wanta couple of punches. He is pushed aside by Faller, who is in great haste, but pauses long enough to remark to Harnish, Oh, Pop, you oughta seen the swell skirt I had last night, then he hurries to his bench for fear of wasting time. I sat down by the door to watch this class, the great Class of ,I7, at work. I suddenly start, are my eyes deceiving me? YVho is this, a stranger? No, it is L'Bobby hfIcKay. He approaches and offers me a HASSAN, and stops just a moment to tell me about hVinnie and then hurries on about his business. Harkl 'What,s that noise, squish-squash, like the rapids at the Falls. VVhy, that,U says Pantera, is only Wlhite with a wad of HONEST SCRAP, trying to reproduce the Jamestown Flood. Biff! Someone blindly rams me, I look up, it is Foote. He seems worried and looks as if his heart would break. 'COh my, oh myf' he wails, L'I'm late, I'm late, itls 12:17, and I'll be thrown out. Out of what? I ask. THE CRABBER'S CLUB, he sobs. hfIy heart sure did ache for him. fW'hose heart? VVhy, Shawisj Then he retreats to the sink with his sorrow, as he already had quite a puddle on the floor. In comes the SCRUBVVORIAN with a nickel cud of gum in her YAP, looks at Foote's pool on the floor and says, c'IfVhat a dirty bunch! who tried to put the Lakes of Killarney here in the middle of the lloor, and who-F She was interrupted here by Larkin yowling Oh, you, IxVilmontl thus hastening the retreat of the scrubwoman in a rage. An hour passes, and almost every member has arrived and gone to work. Suddenly, a sharp, shrill voice pipes out, HI may be from Ilion, but I'm no Rube, SEE,7' I look up, and close to the ceiling in the clouds of smoke I recognize our President, c'Casey Jones, looking down upon Joe HSpaghetti who has been hit on the head with a bench iron and is in a state of coma. At last, Joe calls out, French carrots on ice, pickles a la mode,', and here his mutterings dwindle into sounds of a far-on' land. IOI

I it Y THE REP1eECToR 32 4 wiv Q E? 1' X! If a lady's in the chair, He has the right to muss her hair' Wipe the powder from her lips, Caress her cheeks with finger tips. If she grasps his arm in pain, He gently takes that hand again, Places it on her lap or chair, And for one second holds it there. Or he may become sincere, Watch her eyes when pain is near, Gently ask her if it hurts, Guarding his manner lest she flirts. Or he may say Please open wide,'l just to get his bur inside. K. W. MooRE. 7 iststurp of the Qilazs nf '17 as jfmsb In September, 1914, trains coming from the north, south, east, and west brought to the City of Buffalo a motley crew of individuals and turned them loose on the unsuspecting citizens. This throng began its existence as a class, September 21st, when they adorned the corridors of the Dental Building for the first time. They had little idea of the stony path that lay between them and their chosen profession. September 22nd, the first stone was rolled over when the tech- nic instruments were checkedup and, the following day, their trials began when the first beeswax impression was taken. A few days later they waded into a barrel of mud, and after many weeks of strenuous labor they moulded objects which in some respects re- sembled teeth. On Qctober 3rd, the entire department was out to Dr. Squire's summer home on Lake Erie. It is needless to say that the Freshmen were there to the man. Athletic events of all descriptions were en- joyed, the Frosh cleaning house for the two Upper Classes. Abbey carried off the honors on the football field by fracturing his malar bone, this unfortunate incident saved the Upper Classmen from a disastrous defeat. Next came the baseball game. Here again the Frosh carried off the honors of the day, due to the efficient work of the batteries. Then followed the races, and again the Frosh 103
