28 I'll be right there. Good-bye, hurriedly answered the nurse, as she hung up. Ten minutes later she entered the outer room where Jim awaited her. He led her directly to a cell in which was seated a good-looking young man. Bill ! she cried, the moment she saw him. jane! he ejaculated. VVill you leave this business now as I asked you to P she asked, pleadingly. Will I? I already have. was his response, as a new light illumined his eyes. As they em- braced, Jim felt in his heart that it was a pretty good world after all. D. W. L., '30. OUR SCHOOL Down by a winditi river That runs so quietly by, Stands a vine-covered red brick building Often called dear Westbrook High. As we enter her doors each morning, We often stop to say. This is our one great helper That is sending us on our way. Throughout the four years of learning, Our aims must be just as highg For an honor received in the future Is an honor for Westbrook High. J. E., '30, THE COLLEGIATE FORD . With a rattle and a clatter, While the engine heaves a sigh, With the tires growing flatter, The collegiate Ford rolls by. Each fender has a separate song, Each spring a different squeakg The top flip-flops as it rolls along, The gas tank has a leak. The cylinder walls are badly shot, The crankshaft's terribly bentg The rickety engine's always hot, The body-one big dent. But all in all, it's not so bad, Though not a pretty car 9 The driver's plight is not so bad, It's better than walking by farl B. Q., '31. The Blue Er White AND STILL THE WORLD ROLLS ON I sit alone day after dayg In the game of life I have no part to play, No one cares how lonesome I am, For still the world rolls on. It passes me by on the fleetest of wings, And leaves me behind to just dream of thingsg Oh, I'm tired of this humdrum existence of mine, Still the world rolls on, and the sun still shines. D. H., '30. HMONOPOLIZING MIRRORS The following letter is one which I received the other day from my friend, john VVelch. This letter is very instructive and worthy of monopolization. My dear Henry: -Monopolizing mirrors! Have you ever heard the expression? It has often seemed to me a useless 'expression without meaning. But lis- ten to this: I was walking through the corridor of a high school recently, when I noticed a group of tittering, giggling girls. Suddenly I espied their object of admiration, a mirror! At the time there was a petite blonde before the mir- ror. She gave one side of her head a pat. then the other a little touch, arranged her dress, and was then, only then, ready to go to her classroom. This was copied by a flock of other girls, some arranging their hair, others powder- ing their noses. It came to my mind then what a senseless waste of time and effort it was. I said to myself, It won't be long before they will need special police to hold the crowd in check, and barkers will be shouting through megaphones, 'Line forms to the right,' eh what? Am I not right? Think this over seri- ously, as it will be one of the big problems of the younger generation. Yours monopolizingly, John Vifelch. I. N., '31.
