GLIMMERINGS
This article, dedicated to the serious considera–
tion of the nonsensical side of life, is unrolling be–
fore you. Meditate on these words, 0, Student (?).
May they smooth the wrinkles at your brow and
retrace them at the corners of your mouth.
It's tough enough not to be able to get a meal,
but how about the landlady who couldn't board a
freight.
There should be some females on the inter–
class track teams. You know, the girl with a run
in her stocking, a dash in her eye, and is a high
stepper.
The orchestra is to start Spring practice soon.
The first session will be devoted to teaching the
trombone players how to slide.
Wondering what the mob of teachers was crowd–
ing and pushing for, I walked in the main office
only to find they were trying to get near the
absence report box to get in their p. m. slips. A
sure sign of spring!
The office should have waited 'till second period
to send the notice around concerning the students
who are constantly late. The very ones at whom
it was aimed hadn't arrived yet.
Found! One Freshman who realizes the value of
his own literature. When he came to the end of
his exam, he wrote: "If you sell any of my answers
to the funny papers, you'll have to split
50-50
with me. "
Have you noticed how tboughful the upper
classmen are of the freshmen at Southside, be–
cause they stand back and let the freshmen drink
first? There is a reason. After the first fifteen
drinks, the water is colder.

BRIGHT HERALD
Night is bleak upon these hills–
Why does my heart keep seeing
A blaze of daffodils;
Hear silver trumpets blowing
The laughter of a faun?
Ah but I remember now
That April comes at dawn!
