ENTERPRISE

November's magazines are here,
Full Of Thanksgiving's bounteous cheer;
The Christmas numbers, now. no doubt,
Most any moment will be out.
The bards are working over hours
On next springs rhymes Of birds and flowers
I'm going to beat the bunch, for T.
Will write poem on "July"! 's:65,;> y..y
July? Was it July said! u ty3a..5a,
Indeed, I'll be year ahead. .
So now, with smileless visage sober
I'm going to sing of next October
Oh, next October's birds have fed
The MULLEN stalks are standing dead!
The leaves in gaudy dyes and stains
Are flaming down the country lanes.
o leaden,. skies, hills of gray,
Ger which the lonesome herds do stray,
The snowbirds have returned in focks
The frost is on the fodder shocks, 49,,
And all the world is crisp and sere-,: 80

NO HOPE FOR HIM

His face is scanned with lines of care.
Despair and agitation; - r,-.,';
His knitted, clouded brow is wet
With beads of perspiration.
" what dreadful curse hangs Ger his head,
d, Like sword to fall and smite him?
r. Or has his conscience serpent fangs -
10 sorely sting and bite him?
Or, no; with friends he cracked some Jokes
- When all were feeling mellow, !
: And they convinced him that he was, .r1
A bright and sparkling fellow g., ?.
They captured in his moments weak =
This rash, vainglorious sinner,
And he consented with n speech
= To grace a public dinner
Where is his inspiration gone?
His mind now gropes and wanders, :
And now and then he mutters low
And bites his lips and penders. ,.%-
He turns his stock of stories DER
= And finds with memory murky :
He's stuffed as full Of chestnuts as
A roast Thanksgiving turkey.
20 So he'll break down-he knows he will

He shudders as he thinks he sees

So. as the fatal hour draws nigh, +?
He paler grows and thinner,
And gloonier than a funeral feast %

Who viii Be President2

The Ebell club will hold election of
officers the first Monday in June. Who
will be elected is the question everyone
is asking More interest than usual is
attached to it on account OF the disturb
ance which prevented the election in
both May and April. Mrs. P. G. Hubert
and Mrs. w. F. Please were both nomi-
mated at that time and there are many
who still insist they should accept.
Mrs. Florence Collins Porter is one who
will probably be nominated. Mrs. Porter
before has always made the excuse that
she lived too far away, but now she has
moved into town, so every chance of
her refusing the nomination has been
eliminated. It remains to be seen which
faction will be the strongest.
