Welcome sweet peace!
Insubordination is the chief defence of allegations.

Now show the "East" what 3011 can do,
And um them like you used Wahoo,

'Tis sweet and refreshing when struggling tlirotigh

To meet litmrst mm in the heat of the strife.;
Twould he sweeter to meet, him who, "feeling Ins

Merits vengcancofor swiping J. Cortelyou's 'notes'
The vengeance I'd wreak so dire and so dark, (as

My spirits sink sixteen degrees
Below the danger line.
Had doubts and fears my spirits sci.e.
In sadness I repine.
For Baker, Denison. and (Jreen
Best team the Old Uni has seen
In tlieir attempt to save the state
Were forced to yield tin' joint debate.
A brighter day I contemplate
Illumed with merry, gladsome cheer
Dear Kaus'is we'll reciprocate
In joint debate next year.
I'll swear by heaven and earth ami air,
K'cu by creation's maker,
That though you downed Nebraska fair
You cannot squelch our Baker.

I have, worried loo much lately
In a sympathetic way,
I've grown thinner somewhat lately
Thinking of that Senior IMay.
Mauley will be crowned the hero
Though they say he writes to ,
But he'll make a valiant heio,
As that run of heroes go.
May the class of ninety seven.
After their commencement day,
All proceed direct to Heaven
"By request" to give their play.

I cleaned my gun from grease and dust
Five hours forty by the clonk,
Until remained nor lint nor rust
Within a rod of barrel or stock,
And how I Mimed that glistening bore
To put out the inspector's eye
Then, sadder still, Oh how I swore
When, quite unseen, ho passed mu by.

I never saw a band cailot,
When given tickets to the ''gym,"
Who showed the faintest real regret
To take a lady in with him,
Until our own band took that stand
And asked for recognition.
Then formulated that demand
In terse and lully signed petition.
Now, really, I can't blame the band
For taking that decided stand,
For ladles fair could not oujoy
To sir near the bas drummer boy,
And who could sit without regret
Beside that rolirhij cornet?
But when I heard the orders road
In the battalion, signed "(iui foyle,"
Anil hoard the eur.-e 0.1 I'nonHou's head
Oh how my very blood did very boil!
Now why lire I'liom- m fr ) n the ban I
For acts outside battalion done?
He disobeyed not one command
No, Spartan heroe, not a on-!
But through some moital dislocation
lie's gone for IssimoitiMNATios!
