Show the faculty on arbor day could you have seen the work being done around and in the academy april 15th you might have thought it was labor day students and teachers were all there i did not say all worked but all believed they worked and really much was accomplished on such occasions the most important figure is the commander who in the person of principal mckendrick put on an imposing front and did full justice to the title giving orders and emphasizing them with frantic gestures students hustled to carry out these orders making the dust fly running on errands falling over one another anything to please brother mckendrick brother goddard under pretext of an important appointment with the debating committee got out of all work but was ready for luncheon when it was served brother richards started out well with good intentions and a shovel and a rake but his art being the correcting of themes and not being used to the harder walks of life he gladly drop ped his tools at the call of brother goddard to assist the perplexed debating team by scratching his head brother bradford was busy giving the impression that he had done something brother shurtliff did a few strokes when he wasn't brush ing his clothes or holding hands with the lady teachers sister ballard who follows logically and psychologically and sister farr were very busy preparing the luncheon that the girls had brought already prepared sister larkin surrounded by legions of fairies armed with just plain rags and cakes of bon ami succeeded very well in making the windows shine like glass brother bailey worked the camera taking snap shots every now and then watching for artistic poses of students and teachers brother jensen really did work as demonstrated by the way he scrubbed his brow brother ridges and brother cowles may have been there in fact we know that they were there to lunch and from the amount they ate we feel sure they must have delivered some telling strokes some where brother neal who was the only one dressed for the occasion made quite a hit it was a question whether he was a surveyor or only a rough-rider trying to look like president roosevelt at all events he was willie on the spot brother ballantyne with hands in pockets a smile on his hand some face walked calmly around viewing what others were doing and n 59 1 seemingly approving of it but no manual labor for him — no he must be excused for he is our voice and not our ground cultivator in looking this over i am reminded that brother mckay the originator of this plan of celebrating arbor day found it more con venient to take a trip to salt lake than to shovel dirt now if i were writing of the students i might say something of the real work accomplished but that is not my theme i am discus sing only the faculty — lenora brown, juniors in class meeting we sat in class meeting — the girls were so few the boys lead the doings which the girls listened to now what were the doings the athletic meet the boys did the talking the girls called for heat when all of a sudden we heard a strange noise click — click went the heaters ; we all said rejoice dash runners were chosen high jumpers and all ; the steam was heard buzzing as we heard the bell call |
