BIXBY'S RETREAT.
North Pole !
At dusk out by my alley gate
He then would rest.
Look pleasant, friend I
"Life is embosomed in beauty."
Knavery and flattery are blood relatioi:s"-LtMco
There is "a time to embrace and a tinn to refraiu
dora embracing.'
ATHLETIC fPEED.
We twirled the sphere full well laet prinu.
We won the pig skin fight last fad.
But now these winter days I sing
"A Football Farce." "Indoor" base ball.
A "pony" race, a Polar "Star,"
A. summons from the Registrar.
A Junior "prom." a Freshman "hop" -We
are too speedy now to sto.
L1EDT. PEARY SUBSCRIBES
Lieutenant Peary when you go
Back to those wastes of polar snow
Among the frozen Es-quimaux
Just ask them if they do not know
me!
In snowy hut, on icy street
The hunters grim in circles meet
T read alnud "Bixby's Retreat
You'll see !

CENSORSHIP OF THE TEESS.
Her heart was beating close to mine
In loving harmony so rare;
Her slender waist my arms entwiae -We
occupied one chair.
II
A step, a foot, her father's shoe
The painful sequel you may guess,
Though I'll confess it makes me blur
To have restricted thus the press.
RESPONSIBILITY FIXED FIGHTING EDITOK IN.
To the vrjshwatib ragj
The "5 greutid out io fiendish glee
An editorial scorching "me"
For "irresponsibility,"
The while
1 read of "scurrilous attacks"
"Attempted witticisms" lax
At which my friends get up their backs.
I smile;
Then groan in sympathetic pain,
To think "ye high scribe'' has again
Appendicitis of the brain.
And I suggest
That if "ye scribe" would como and state
His grievances, I'd arbitrate
TIIK HISTOKY STUDENT'S LAMENT.
Herr Fling istein sehr grossen Man
Undspricht des Bruderhood von Man.
Warum Herr Fling wenn dies ist so
Du worken deiuen Students so?
Ich have leliruen das Kritik

Der Man war namit Thucydidcs
Und hat geschrichen Historic.
Von wie men schlag in alten zeit
Mit lange Stab und Sehiverter hreilwi
Von wie er fragen alles mensch
Zuvor er nimiut ihr ''Evidence."
Ich hot, kein zeit wenn ich kann schlaf
Fur ich mii.g werken all das nacht.
Ich konucu weder asz nur trinken
Denn an dies "Papier" ich musg denken.
Und nun Herr Fling flunk du mir nicht
Or ich will nimmer liebedich.
A Victim.
THE FOOTBALL FARCE.
A hint at harm and a subtle charm
And a tinkling shower of wit;
All well sustained nor a trifle feigned.
And I liked it every bit.
Fair Juliet was witty,
Pauline was strong and pretty,
And Ophelia true to nature you may know
But I tell j'ou now at startin
None rivaled Daddy Martin
As out-Martined by our genial Jesse Eowe.
We were pleased with lady "Mac,"
Ana Dr. Brown was "crack"
And Nell and Bob were neilhvr of them slow.
But I'm here to tell you sartin'
I was stuck on Daddy Martin
Afr interpreted by smiling Jese Rowe.
Ned Riddel was O K,
And Captain Mike was gay.
Though I in light he was Johann a time or so.
But ray eves are still a smrrtin'
From rny latiih at Daddy Martin
As I saw him through our ekilful Jesse Rowe
Guinevere was rare
And Nora, to be fair
Was simply "out of sight" a sayings go;
But I tell j'ou now at partin'
That I saw consummate art in
That old duffer Daddy Martin,
As unfolded hy our artist Jesse Rowe. '
