And now tliat dream is sung in duet.
Selen Forest and Dick IXaymes
On fame they stake their claims
(Tliey reached their aims!)
Chills run up and down your spine
Aour hlood seems turned to wine
(That’s trite, exaggerated, but it’s
rhyme.)
If you’ll listen for a bit
I know that all you’ll long for is
this hit!

It seems that in the course of be
ing educated we have completely ig
nored the universe around us. The
outcome of the Time tests at Saint
Mary’s really proves that we are out
of this world.
The .lunior-Senior decorations
were a big success. Some people
felt it was as near as they would
ever get to celestial glory.

Investigation reveals that the sole
interest of the feeble-minded is to
get out of the institutions to which
they are confined. We note with
alarm the growth of a similar ten
dency at S. if. S.
Si * S:
We have always heard that things
rise to a feverish crescendo during
the last week of school. We should
like to point out to the faculty that
we’re all ready ’way ahead of sched
ule.

Teaching is really j)retty tough
work after all. Mr. Moore had to

A member of the student body has
requested that an appeal be placed
in this column that absolute quiet
be maintained in the library at all

Student opinion recently has seen

“Shoo, shoo, Baby, beat me 2 to the

Mrs. Broughton, Mrs. Guess, and
Miss Christian acted as judges, mak
ing their decisions by means of fiash
cards. After the diving exhibition,
Mary Lynn Lewis gave what may
be termed a “shimmy dive.” Fannie
Coo])er demonstrated a headstand
dive, and there were several double
dives. As a grand finale, Marion
Gaither appeared as a femme fatal,
glamour, naive, slim little Miss
Whiz, “she’s tin- best there is.”
One of the highlights of the eve
ning was Nliss Lalor’s all too famil
iar Girls, hush” when the specta
tors became too enthusiastic.
The final score was 173>/;i to 171
in favor of the Sigma’s.
