El......... 19 o1.LEPAw zz HIGH SCHOOL COMMENCIN' What I jist can't quite comprehend Is this here thing the schools all send, About the school's commencin'g I ,low as how they've went and run, It's most a year since they've begun- Ancl still theylre jist commencinf And arter all these months of school Ihey must think each 0' us a fool, To say they're jist commencin'. As soon as I received the thing, I riz right up and sez, By Jing, If they is jist commencin', It really will be all our fault If we don't up an' call a halt About this here commencin'3 Fei' see how high our taxes is, And how much higher up they've riz, Since this here school's commencin', And now they 'aint quite spent enuf, They want to pull this pretty stuff By sayin, they're commencinh Ef now they're startin' all to wunst. What was they doin' all them months? They're sartin long commencin', I reckon, tho', it haint fer me, A lookin' down from up a tree, To dictate their commencinlg But if they'll ,lect me to their board, And gimme leaf, I'll bet a gourd I'll stop their blame commencin'. -Contributed.

So now the mystery is explained To those who had a doubt, Concerning all the hair girls have And what makes it stand out. Beneath this great expanse of puff Construct one simple knot, And over this a net with which 'Most any gent is caught. You know it takes a Senior girl To tell you what is what. --VV. H. S. Flapper. O O - O TEACHING TOMMY TRUTHFULNIZSS Tactful teacher teaches tenaciously, tenderly, technically. Troublesome Tommy Trout tells tales that try teacher terribly. Teacher treats Tommy tenderly, telling truthfully two things, that Tommy thwarts teaching totally tantalizing too terrificallyto tend toward teach- er's tendering termsg that tempestuous Tommy terrorized teacher throughout three terms, telling tales that tended to to take troublesome Tommy to that terrible threshhold, theo- logical teachers talk, thereby thwarting totally the theosophic thereapeutics taught. Tommy talks terribly, too terribly to tell. Teacher thrashes, thrashes tremendu- ously thirteen times, then talks tenderly to Tommy. Tommy talks tauntingly to teacher. Teacher then turns Tommyls toes to the table, thrashes thrice thirteen times, thirty-nine times throughoutg then talks, talks tenderly to Tommyg Tommy talks tenderly, too, this time through tears. Telling teacher that this, the teacher's tendency to thrashing tests thoroughly. Teacher's technical treatments taught Tommy truthfulness. Tommy to this time tells tales truthfully. Teach truthfullness, tenderly, tenaciously, tactfully, teach- ers: 'twill tell.

He sed as how gorge never towld a lye in his hole life and if that is true, gorge want no boy at all he wuz a girl for boys jest caint live thout lyin, and if they do try to they jist git licked all the time and that haint nowise condoosive to their con- stitcoshuns. So as evvybudy sais as how gorge axshully lived and wuz the daddy of his country, l gess maybe he did, but it sounds mity fishy, and the feller what rote his orthografy wuz the lyre. I have been thinkin as how old unkle john washington, the pap of gorge, mabe hired the orthografy man to lye for gorge so as gorge woodn't halfto
