Inspector Crabtreo quietly goes
To High Schools over all the state
To hoar their talcs of weal or woe
Likewise to get their credits straight.
The verdict everywhere has been
He says not much but acts with skill,
He's courteous, affable, yet keen
In running his inspection mill.
Well may the old Uni tako pride
In him whose silent mission leads
A host to stem dark Learning's tide
To bask on Culture's golden meads.
MA.TOMTY KULKS SUUFK STILL ON THE WAK-TItAIL,
Ho "goeth about as a roaring lion seeking whom
he may devour."
Isaid last week ami here repeat
I have no axe to grind mo,
But I shall leave a slimy trail
In politics behind me.
Each motherson I'll track him down
Who dared to vote agin mo
And smite him dead as Tompkin's cat
Sure as the 's in me.
The gang that held the places fell,
Another gang stepped in
And what, was all their lust year swell
When Onry got the tin?
They scrapped; one boss will not permit
Another boss to reign
Why will not beaten fools submit?
They'll never drill again.
They sat whore juicy names went round
Thoy heard each spicy lling,
They saw that Shun" again was downed
By that alllired ring.
They thought about lliul state house plan,
So lately hutched in vain.
Alas, Alas, sorn-headed man
They'll never drill again.
NKISKABKAN STILL 8TKA1.S.
Oh Boprint Dear,
Thy plaintive voice I hear
And see thy sickly form.
Oh Boprint dear,
Thou'rt stale since 1 the Journal road
And know thy stolon columns warm
Thy "echoes" long since gouo to seed
Oh Boprint dear.
Oh come not as some thieving olf,
But )Ut(uot(ix all around thyself.
Oh Boprint dear.

Thoy ii8d to say the old Psych Lab
Was but a demons hole.
Thoy used to swear the muster there
Tuught. Tsyoh without a mul.
But lo, the change another sago,
To wipe out former steins,
Assumes control and on the whole
Omits both soul and brains.
NEBRASKA WKATHEH.
You may talk about your weather
We have got it!
And the pale mul sickening heather-
Wehave got it!
Yes wo have the meanest weather
That a mortal ever saw,
And its tougher than tho leather
That Mio boarders cat for slaw.
You may talk about hot weather
Wo havo got it!
It has molted all together
We have got it!
Now our tongues are hot and soar'd
Asweseek Morpheus' boon
But each morn we see the. beard
Frozen on the pallid moon.
