H. Brevard Co.
Is This Your Case.
If with you he's made an en-
gagement,
And he doesn’t suit your your
taste,
Don’t be the least embarrassed
But apply your cunning in haste.
Your visiting friends will help
you,
She’s willing to aid you a bit,
And at his early arrival,
In the parlor she’ll gracefully sit.
Yes, you’ve a beautiful sister,
Who would your friend entertain
But on this special occasion,
Dense ignorance she would feign.
When he ’rives your friend should
meet him,
You three in the parlor should sit
And talk about various subject,
While he thinks he’s making a
hit.
He and you are now strolling,
Up to the Normal Hill-—
Your visiting friend is with you;
His comfort (?) is only your will.
Just talk and be jolly while with
him—
Your friend should be along too;
He's slow, he’s backward, he’s
ignorant;
He really has nothing in view.
Do this and be contented,
Be he the most ignorant of men,
This hint he’ll rightly interpret,
He’ll NEVER call on you again.
Q. E. D.
Mr. John Gambrel’s eyes have
been causing “some ones” heart
to go “flippity flop.” You may
ask, “How? do I know?” Well,
I do know, for we have “John”
for breakfast, dinner and sup-
per. Hurry up, John, and get
digested.
Debate: Resolved; That S.
W. T. H. Girls Quit Wear-
ing Middy Blouses.
Prof. Vernon at a faculty meet-
ing,
When all the dear teachers were
speaking,
In his first year at this institu-
tion,
About middy blouses gave his
view,
Which would have made the girls
feel blue,
Had it gone into execution.
He, speaking with a dignified air
Said that girls should not come
there,
Dressed in middy blouses;
The Normal girls are ah sweet,
And therefore should look neat,
By wearing middies only at
boarding houses.
Small ones, so he said, looked
bad,
Medium size make him mad,
And large ones—Oh, my!
None of the points did the teach-
ers see,
So with him none did argue—
The following lines give the rea-
son why.
Prof. Brown is too sweet and j
kind,
Prof. Coxen has not the time, |
Miss Halm says that they;re in j
season,
Miss Hornsby will give her rea- j
son,
Some other day when she’s at
leisure.
And gave a few “since when"
and “why’s”
Miss White says that middies
will do,
Prof. Miller thinks steel and
electricity.
Might have too much affinity,
And doubtless his thoughts are
true.
Prof. Pritchett is too modest to
cast votes;
Miss Butler requires deep round
notes;
Miss Pearsall has long been too
artistic;
Prof. Thomas think’s they’re
cute,
Prof. Stanfield says they’ll suit,
And Miss Younger is too hy-
gienic.
Prof. Birdwell admires the togs
of Rome;
Mrs. Shafer wants reading in a
deep clear tone;
Miss Shipeis a “I don’t haf’to”
Miss Hinds says they help in ex-
ercise;
Prof. Arnold doesn’ care to ad-
vise;

With Prof. Nelson, just any wav
will do.
After the teachers were all done
speaking;
Prof. Evans who had been lis-
tening.
Was given the question to test;
After thinking, he said with ease
“The girls may do just as they
please—
In matters of dress.”
