Show class yells sis boom-bah ! we're the juniors rah rah rah we are fine bight in line we're the bunch every time its we are its we are — j-u-n-i-o-r an extraordinary class meeting on april 2nd a notice appeared on the bulletin board that a special meeting would be held that afternoon important to every junior of course the juniors are naturally curious this was shown by the president being repeatedly interrupted and the same question asked what are we going to do in class meeting to which he positively refused to reply when meeting was called to order the usual full house was not present but the few loyal members who did appear were taken to the room which had already been prepared for them and greatly to the surprise of all present delicious ice cream and cake was served as a compliment from the junior boys does it pay to be loyal one day in december the senior boys took it into their heads to change their occupation barbering was the new trade chosen and preparations were immediately made for converting room 13 into a first class barber shop patronage they would have whether it come willingly or not and strange to say for customer no 1 they chose a prominent member of class 10 victor sears fell victim to their shears no spectators were allowed and in order to insure privacy further the victim was calmly (?), with much struggling placed on the floor by about sixteen senior men and then completely hidden from view by the rest of their classmen who served not only as a screen but also as ballast to hold the honored guest on the floor the business was then transacted the classmen of 09 soon abandoned the tonsorial art as a bad job and went back to sleep through the strenuous efforts of parties belonging to neither class we assure you a peace meeting was agreeably agreed to with many and strong ob jections by both classes concerned which according to our judg ment surpassed the hague by few and the sophomores paid for the paint " twas on a winter's night not so very long ago ; the night was dark and quiet there was scarcely any snow ' ' we placed our 10 upon the roof and then made our retreat ; but sophs had followed and wben we left they a like process did repeat upon the roof that frosty night when darkness hid the mall from sight midway almost twixt earth and heaven our 10 they changed into 11 we will confess twas a slight surprise but not the end you may well surmise more strange things followed and the songs still sing : class eleven you have been stung " for of late we junior men |
