Preface Oi!! The choice of a Roman theme for the nineteen thirty-one publication of The Trumpet was prompted by the world-wide celebration of the two thousandth anniversary of the birth of Virgil. Let ns hope that the good poet lms not heceonie so long and happi y accustomed to his Elysian home among the 'locos laetos et amoenin virec-ta --tthe blessed seats among the lovely woods' that he has forgotten this world of men, which once deeply moved his great and tender heart, und can- not smile gratefully and approvingly upon this little attempt of ours to add to hie unlimited praise of the past year. ei 44

This Being a Junior Olfi Folks around may envy me, And say I ought to be Just happy-and-go-lucky-- Why? Pm a Junior you see. But this being a so-called Junior Is not what it's cracked up to be. Not when those dignified Seniors Are forever prying on nie. I'm to take their shining example And keep it for a sample l'm not to whisper in the hall Or make one tiny sound at all. Besides looking up to the Seniors, true Giving example to the Sophomores, too I have quite a little task in hand One sometimes Very hard to command. But then the time is coming, too Vlfhen I will have to see To all the things the others do And be a Senior free. I suppose I should be happy And enjoy my privileges few Until I am a Senior And won't have others tell nie what to do. M. M., aaa 'fi 47 if
