Bloomington High School, The Gothic, 1917, Page 12

Description:	A Fable For CricketsNow to all of our teachers who rind not their namesMentioned once in our Annual with praises or blames.Just send in your cards without further delayTo our Editor-in-Chief, Herbert Hazel: or, say!--Just be sure that the Staff of next years PublicationSecures them, and theyll give yon consideration.To begin with, theres Sylvie, who stood with the fewAnd preached to the Seniors -- they needed it, too! --Our memry of her is a dream histrionic;We will cherish The Gothic and her as a tonic.There is Ramsey, so tranquil, forbearing and fairYou hardly at first see the strength that is there.When Nature was making him. clay was not grantedFor making as full-sized a man as She wanted.So to fill out Her model a little She sparedFrom some finer-grained stuff for a woman prepared;And She couldnt have hit a more excellent planFor making him fully and perfectly man.Then follows e. g., the man next in line:His humor is clean; smile and halo divine.His mind is so broad and of such vast extent.No wonder hes bald and his neck’s a bit bent!He wins by ..,, Q. E. D., and so on,Exponents of--nothing but Mir. McCaughan.Although you may worry clean through English VIII,Your brow become wrinkled, night hours awful late,--Remember that Hud was a kid in his dayAnd now seeks revenge for his hours fooled away.Accept your grades sweetly, dont cry Have a heart!He once was a bone-head; youre just getting a start,Oh, here comes A. J., with his kewpie expression.And Her, who is always in immediate succession.He is our business-man, but we should judgeAbout half of hims genius, the other half fudge.Keep your ears open wide to the Futures first call;Be whatever you will, but be accurate above all!
