October j 1962 THE DILLARD HIGH NEWS Page Five POEM FOR THE MONTH By Edgar A. Guest Figure it out yourself, my lad, You’ve all that the greatest of men have had. Two arms, two hands, two legs, two eyes- And brain to use if you are wise. With this equipment they all began, So start for the top and say, “I can,” Look them over, the wise and great. They take^ their food from a common plate. And similar knives and forks they use; With similar laces they tie their shoes. The world considers them brave and smart. But you’ve all they had when they made their start. You can triumph and come to skill, You can be great if you only will. You’re well equipped for what fight you choose. You have arms and legs and a brain to use. And the man who has risen great deeds to do Began his life with no more than you. You are the handicap you must face. You are the one who must choose your place, You must say where you want to go, How much you will study the truth to know. God has equipped you for life, but He Lets you decide what you want to be. Courage must come from the soul within. The man must furnish the will to win. So figure it out for yourself, my lad, You were born with all that the groat have had, Important October Dates October gave a party; The leaves by hundreds came The ashes, oaks, and maples And those of every name. Cooper October is the favorite month of poets. It is the month of the first frost, but cold weather does not come to stay. Days of hazy warm sunshine come later. Leaves change to brilliant crimson, russet, and gold. The gem for the month is the opal. The Cosmos and the Calendula are the flowers. Fall crops are being brought in by farmers. The excitement of the football season begins October is also full of important dates. They are: 1. James Lawrence, American naval officer, who cried, “Don’t give up the ship!” born 1781.

IT HAPPENED HERE SATISFIED Two students sitting on a bench on the campus were dis cussing Jobs. “Are you doing any ba^>y-sitting these days?”' asked one. “Yes, and I got a real nice place,” the other replied. “What do you get?” “A dollar an hour, car fare and spankin’ privileges.” A DECISION 'The math teacher was notori ous for piling _on homework Finally, one harassed student went to him and complained that it was absolutely impossible to do all the problems assigned. “Here’s what you can do,” suggested the teacher. “Just work half of the problems and next year when you are repeat ing this course, you can do the other half.” CONFUSED Teacher to science pupil—What is a compound? Dave looked puzzled and did not respond Teacher—(later) Why didn’t you answer the question, Dave? Diave—I thought you might have meant a stable compound. With your equipment they all began.
