"I think that I shall never .see,
• A poem lovely as a tree;
A tree whose hungry mouth is
prest
Against the earth's sweet ^flowing
breast;
A tree that, looks at God
And lifts fier leafy arms to prayT
A tree* that mfcy in summer "wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain,
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me.
But.only,God can make a tree."

Fish Reveal Final
Detailed Plans
for Class Day
. •• *
Scatter! tho, Sophs! is heard com-
ing from every corner where a few
fish have gathered to talk????
Oh! our dear school, have you
heajjjJ on ,account of the depression
'that the Fish class, the class of, '35-,
ha>s decided not t^i^iave Fish day
dresses; that because of the very hard
times that the business staff of the
0
usual fish edition has fotind it hu-
manly impossible to Secure enough
ads to pay for the fish paper; that
the class has also decided not to have
a fish paper.
Because the class contains so many
beautiful girls the class has found it
quite hard to choose a Freshman,
queen, therefore, it has been decided
that there would be tio queen of"the.
Freshman class. Of course there is
a-rather unusual situation but you
are also reminded that this an
unusual class.
Fiph day program did some one
mention? Why, there won't be any.
After seeing the smiles on the in-
dents' faces when there is no chapel
program, the Freshman class has de-
cided that it can best please the
school by giving to thent an extra
half fi'our for studying.
Did some one say Fish Day? The
Fish class ha^ unanimously decided
that there will be no Fish Day, be-
cause it seems to be generally only
a day for getting even with the sophs
and upper classmen, therefore we
feel it mir duty only to refer you
to Romans 12:19. "Vengeance is
mine, saith the Lord."
Three one-act plays to be given to-
night in the Fine Arts Auditorium by
the Thespian Club are "The Medi-
cine Show" by Stuart Walker, "The

allegory. The slave is Life. It rep-
resents two ways in which two dif-
ferent girls deal with life. One girl
