Or drank, or peeped in class, Have mercy on my soul! Oh let me into heaven, Lord, Grant me this last request. For, Oh Lord! My days are numbered We're to have an English test. I went to Prof. Alexander Oh Sir, said I to him, Grant .me these last few favors Before my eyes grow dim. Give me a decent burial, Let flowers above me grow, And at my funeral have them sing 'Wash me as white as snow.' Take this and buy a tombstone, The one you like the best, And on it have engraved these words: 'She died of English test.' -Beulah Gordon '26. i l.ll-1 W. C. H. S.

M ary Elizabeth Gilbert OUR MODERN ROMEO AND JULIET They met at a masquerade dance. He was tall, dark and lithe. She Was of medium height, with dark brown hair, and vary graceful. He was attracted to her from the first moment he had seen her and she had answered very sweet and low, Hello, to his, Hello there, Cutie. Then they had started dancing. She was perfect. How pretty her hair is, he thought, just like mot11er's. I'll surely be glad when we take off our masks so I can see your beautiful face, he said to her. She said nothing. They danced until about eleven o'clock, never stopping to rest. Then came the time to remove their masks. He led her to the moonlit balcony. I want to see your beautiful face out here in the moonlight. It will make it all the l0veliSr, he said to her. She began untying her mask with trembling fingers Then he slowly untied his. Eagerly he stood Waiting. Couldn't he help her? No It was just fastened in her hair, There! It was untied. Oh! It was off! Mother! he whispered faintly and fell over the balcony rail. -Ruth Rankin '26 ENGLISH TEST When Miss Kern told me those awful tidings, I saw the end draw near. My blood turned cold within me, My eyes grew large with fear. I saw death approaching, I saw his awful stare, And so I lift2d up my voice In agonized prayer- Oh Lord, I know I've sinned a lot, But then I never swore or stole, lwllllmllllli ..', 11Illlllllllwlliillllfllll Ill'ill1iIlI1illlWiIlllHllIHNWIilllilliiilllllllllllllllllll' 5 IEHIIHHVWlllllllllliilIll1lllllilllillfliilrilIWNHHIHlllllllllllllHllNHHHH!HIlIlIIIll!!IlIIiHIHIHl Twenty-Seven
