Well, you see, tie already has a
ft-' ■ ’ ‘ v
Oh, what shall Ido? I’m wholly
upset:
Mid-term exams are to be stood yet.
To flunk them, all—is what l expect;
Why has my duty gone by with neg
lect? •
Lust Monday with its joy, so swift in
its flight,
Loft me cramming ajl day, and wor
rying all night!
This whole school, 1 greet with my
frowns-— ...
Who could help it', just before-exams!
Our faculty, so strong, no more, .com
fort will be,
And notebooks and friends lose their
charm for me. ,V
I feel as - done as the "ancient, tnari-
V' mer’Vat sea,
And not u soul takes pity on me.
My head’s in a whirl, and all I ever
.knew
Must be learned over, ■ I’ve forgot
. that, too! .
Then the teachers say, "It’s wrong to
crarii!”-- - ■
But who could help. it, just before
exums ?•'
When first the schedule, wns posted. in
. the hall
I went down to see it with no fear
at all;
But with ope glance my apirita did
fall,
What I saw there would make any-
■ body bawl.
There were six exams, with Fresh
man Math,
Now if you had flunked it. once, could
you hold your wrath?
1 want to see him who could be cool
and c’am,.
When he looks at a'schedule, just be
fore exams.
Oh, what shall 1 do Will no one say ?
Must I cram it in layers, in "Strops’ "
old way?
It will be better in order, if I can get
it to stay, -
And take off the layers on each exam
day.
But now- just think how 1 might get
. fixed, .....
If I tumbled down stairs, und get it
' all mixed.
But .If that should happen, I'll jump
In a.brook ami drown.
Who could help it, just.before exams?

ESSAY . ON - PANTS
I’ahts are ntade for men and not for
women.. Women are made for men
and not for pants. When a man pants
for a woman and a woman paints for
a ;nan, that makes a pair of pants.
Bunts-are like molasseS; they are
ihiekor in cold weather and thinner in
hot weather. '
There has been much discussion as
to whether pants is singular or plural.
Seems to us' that when men wear
pants it is plural and when they don’t
wear pants it is singular.
, If you want to make the pants last,
make’the coat first.

“Thank you, doctor. Now tell me
