Senior Notes by Louise Bridges.
The seniors as a whole are basking
in the sunshine of Joy. Perhaps there
are several reasons for their happi-
ness. Recently an invisible. visitor,
Dan Cupid" visited the class and
released goodly number Of arrows,
several Of which pierced few seniors
hearts. Then, too, many OF these Dig
nitarians are anticipating already the
day OF graduation" SO the seniors

but they should moistened be with a
liquor made from true pleasures which
rejoice the heart Then OF loves magic
drops a few-but use them sparingly,
for they may bring a flame which
naught but tears drawn can grind the
whole and mix Herewith OF merriment
an ounce to even. Yet this may not
bring happiness except in your prisons
YOU lift your voice to Him who holds
the gilt OF health.
