Our Seniors. Our seniors are notable-they are philanthropists. While the beef trust is starving the American people, these noble fellows are going to furnish nice, fresh meat to the African and Malay and Igorrote, free of charge. My! what joy will possess the savages vvhenthey learn this great news-four, big, fat, juicy Seniors. Whew! wonlt they make a banquet? Fancy the inenu-HI-Iattiell served zz Za ioasi-HPap'l cz Za monk monkey pie-' 'Wooly Wallie, a Za sfzlafle and HG. O. PY' a Za sozape seasoned with the latest tracts on HOW to'Save the Savage. Won't those be fortunate who get them! Pity, isn't it, that there vvon't be enough to go around, big as the STARTING Seniors are? But never mind, aifevvJuniors are going to graduate next year and they will supply the deficiency, but don't say anything about that, for if the savages should learn it they Wouldn't want the Seniors and we must not disappoint them in their good purpose. Well, the Seniors are good boys-We are glad of it, and so is his majesty, the King of the Zoupe Zoupes. W'e want to help the poor savages, so We must take good care of the Seniors, and invite them to dinner very often. The natives may find them pretty tough, but it is. 1 -E 'lf 4' ij hard on the system to write orations fhjfi . and pass examinations and do socie- I' I w if ty all at once as the Seniors have - 'fQ'N4.frT- - done. We ought to do like the Se- -'X LQ QW . lg .,. - niors for we must not let the poor 3 '4'--'i , MZ W Cannibals starve. Think of the nice , 'T trip We would have, the Warm wel- f , come, and how nicely we would be M served when meal time came. Never ' .9-7 H mind we will be Seniors some day 'fi -,A, 3 4 and can become members, too, of K , 'f f the World's Fresh Meat Supply Z' Companyf, We Want to encour- age our Seniors-so let us present to them this nice little poem-they will like us for it and recommend us to the dear Cannibals.
