I’ve taken my school as I found it; I’ve worked and I’ve loafed in my day I’ve mixed with the students and teachers, And studied—alas, the wrong way! Once I was flunked in my history-— That was a few years ago; Last week they tripped me in Spanish So I speak of that which I know. Now I aren’t no hand with professors For, taking them all along, You never can tell till you’ve tried them And then you are like to be wrong— There’s times when you think that they’ll flunk you. And times when you’re sure that they won’t; But the times that they “won’t,” they always will. And the times that they “do,” they don’t. « I’ve taken my school as I found it, And now I must pay for that sin; For the more that you try to broader. The more will your studies hem in— And the end of it’s cribbing and cram ming, And failing to get your degree; So be warned by my lot, (which I know you will not) And learn about college from me! —Marquette Tribune. Co-Ed—“Milo reminds me of the eletcric chair.” Co-Edna—“How so?” Co-Ed—“Every time you sit in his lap he starts sparking.” Kuppenheimer Spring | Suits i STETSON HATS KNOX HATS STACY ADAMS OXFORDS These and many other new ar ticles of men’s wear are arriv ing daily.

She Smokes, She paints, She powders, She reads ‘La Vie Parisene,’ She drinks my liquor, She stays out all night, She cusses, too, She eats lobsters at midnight, She does lots of things she ought not to, But she’s my grandma and I love her.—Witt.
