FIRST YEAR ANATOMY ROOM

Page 143 text:

Henry Clayton Moyer was a peculiar little elf, Indeed he was related to old Kock himself. Mumma was a fat man, Carter's hair was red, Linberg stood for creamy cheese and Newhaus, milk and bread. Fiedler was our strong man, Bushong sold the books, Miller asked the questions and Gwinner held the hook. Greenwood kept a steady pull, Dennis fell behind, Reeder and old Harry Little kept a steady grind. lf continuous reading kept a man in trim, Michener's North .4l7I6I'fl'UlI was a help to him. Patrick was a speed horse man, but got crazy as a louse When upon his shoulder he would feel a little mouse. The Quigleys, they were Irish, and that's not saying much, But they, too, got intelligent by living with the Dutch. Pete Runyon lives in jersey, where there is naught but sand, But even in that dumping ground Vets are sometimes in demand. Buck Taylor is a farmer and a Vet combined, He intends to pick potatoes when no practice he can find. Philip Wfendkos is a poet, and a poet line, But when he writes about a thing he skips most every line. Old Pop VVerntz was on the job, he never had a fear, . And Pop was the executive for three entire years. Now wefve left two noble men till the very last, Namely, Wfescott and old Rogers, and they both are in one class: They're not drafters, neither racers, nor beef or mutton types, But their owners simply keep them to watch the house at nights. -sF1'ed G. Sieifzibaclz A tall, thin rube called Steinbach, enrolled at our Vet School, I-le carried blood in buckets, pushed coins and played the fool, He ripped it into Quigley, gave his Dutch friends a boost, He plucked and ate a chicken he found dead beneath its roost. He patented a capsule to keep the wigglers warm, ' To carry to his long-tailed mut out on his Bridesburg Farm, He never paid the stud fee, faked breeding for the pup. Alas, for honest screw-tail, too late you sized him up. iw! V no-J Mia l43
