JUNIOR
TWO.
Warning to the Freshmen.
Come, O Freshmen, and you shall hear
Of the midnight toil of the Junior year;
There are Physic-outlines and English themes
That harass your days and disturb your dreams.
Physics is hard; not any bluff-
But Geometry originals! They 're the stuff
That makes the Junior cry and wail
And feel their effort of no avail.
Algebra can only be learned by toil,
And the burning of quarts of midnight oil;
While History, with spelling, don't you know,
Is the cause of many a Junior's woe.
If you can't learn Music it is no sin;
In Drawing you simply must "mass it in."
Latin or Geology? Freshmen, this
Is choosing 'twixt Scylla and Charybdis.
All may learn to Read and Write,
And Civics is conned within a night,
But the Method of Class-room recitation
Is not by any means recreation.
Scarcely a Junior is left alive
Who commenced the term of Nineteen Five,
So, if of trouble you would steer clear,
Dear Freshmen, avoid the Junior year.
--CLARA F. PIERCE, J. II.
