Show PAGE THREE WEBER HERALD Original Poems THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS (EDITION) 'Twas the Christmas edition, and all thru the room -Tot a creature was stirring, not an ide?. loomed; The Editor, poor thing, was tearing his hair, While the cries of his helpers oft rend the air. The jester. Sir Dahlstrom, was fondling the keys' The night sped on while the tempus flees. Eleven and twelve o'clock saw the sad end Of the Christmas Herald and yet It depends On your point of view if you like it or not, But remember, we worked all night on the rot. KLASS KOLYUA1 SENIORS CHRISTMAS Old Santa Claus will soon be here, He brings us joy that lasts all year; He brings with him all Christmas joy, He brings the children books and toys. But best of all we have a rest From lessons, books and all tho tests, But when the New Year comes ;i gain We'll all be here with books and SOPHOMORES pen. -Leroy Ferrin. AN IDEAL TEACHER I think you'll all agree with me, That what we like the most to see Is sure a teacher full of smiles, And one whose temper never riles. If wo are unprepared today Sho will not scold, but simply say: "Well, never mind, do not despair, But try again and this prepare.'' We also like her to be kind, And to all our bad faults be blind. And when we leave her- room each day To feel that shirking does not pay. Lprnv TiYryin. As wa approach the happiest time of the year, when all the world pauses in it's busy race of life to sing, "Peace on Earth good will toward man," and forgets about tho petty quarrel and contentions of yesterday in the happy anticipation of the gifts to be bestowedtomorrow. Likewise the Seniors turn from this trembling, for fear they will be called on to pray in Devotional and their gay inter-class contest, and pause in their ever onward march to victory In all intellectual and physical contests; and partakingof the Christmas spirit turns with Joy to bestow our gift on our fellow bearers of the Purple and White. To the faculty we give a goUen cup filled to over flowing with appreciation for their faithful work in the development of our soul fiber, also a ruby vessel of compassion, so that next month all of our E's and D's may be changed to A's and B's. To the college we give a free and unchallenged right to room 10 and 11; also the golden contents of Brother Mills' mind as far as it can be extracted by skillful questions.To the Juniors we present a silver cage to hold safe their newly borned spirit so there will be no danger of loosing it and again falling in the death trance. To the Sophomores a bottle of energy and pep remove, to relieve them of some of the surplus spirit they are always boasting of. To the Freshmen we give a book entitled how to win contest and the best way of getting an excuse for sluffing. And to all we wish you a Merry Christmas and a. bright and glorious New Year. "There is a time for work and a time for play," once said a great man. One should 'work and one should play, but not play when there is work to be done, neither work when its time for play. But the trouble with most people Is that they get the two mixed. The Sophomores are not like that, they work and play at the proper time, we hone all students do. When school began we were all supposed to work; but did we? We alone can answer that. We are the Judges of ourselves and consciences. The time for work has come and gone, and now we are given leave to play; to play to hearts content, to laugh, to be merry, to Be thankful and glad. One may ask what Is this time for play, and the answer is expressed in one beautiful word, a word that carries a message of precise and good cheer to the hearts of all people, it is Christmas. If we students have worked faithfully we have all the more reason to play merrily. The Sophomores, know and understand this great fact, they have worked and now they will play. They want you to play too, they want you to have n. good time, and they wish you the merriest Xmas and happiest New Year that, you have ever known. When the play time is over, when the New Year rolls around, and It. is time for work, come to your work with as much happiness and cheerfulness as you went to your plav. Do it and do it well, then we will play again. Almeda Newman. SHOES K)K VI MN. WU1V1L1N I AND CHILDREN T3he R V.

T don't feel very confident, When called upon to tell The qualities in a teacher, That I like very well. Xow in tin's world of sorrow, Where strife is all around A smile is always welcome, And very seldom found. Po the teacher that is cheerful. And always has a smile, Will win my admiration And cheer you up a pile. So teachers take a hint from me, And don't, begin to grouch; For a smile is contagious. ;.; pas:; it on about. Douglas Ellis. Keen vour eyes open Students. The trumpet of resurrection ir blowing for the college and what's more the students are responding. For the past week the student; have been quietly asleep. It seems that they have been afflicted v loud snoring and even nightmares, though as the tryouts for the cln-play have been held "and the students have got some new staff positions. You have heard about our ticket campaign? Besides doing our part in the regular campaign we got out on Thursday afternoon and finished selling out the house. But it's no longer thesub-conscious mind which Is running the students but- the conscious mind which wants a good time. Two wonderful parties have been planned for one week. One a hen and rooster party and the other a coasting party. Don't you wish you could come? Saint Peters at the gate though. Only students who have reached the position of College exaltation can pass the golden gates. They alone, can answer to the new resurrection trumpet, which is waking up the College. The other classes arc doomed to sleep. A dream of sadness and joy! Ah! if it. could only come true. Behold. I sat bv the fireside on a Christmas Eve, the lights were all turned low, and as the snow glistened from the outside in through the window, my thoughts began to wonder. I thought of the glad and joyful Christmas, then my thoughts turned to the Junior class. I saw them in a great body even in the social and scholastic activities. They seemed to be very successful and I was exceedingly glad', but still there was something lackinsr. the money with which to carry things on. They did not seem to respond. It was told around that the good old Prom was doubtful this year, but even that did not seem to siir them. So without funds I saw the class lei everything go by. It was a pitiful sight to see them as hey struggled dav by day. In an instant I awoke, and my how sorrowful I was, because It. might possibly come true. But here's hoping the tide will turn, and turn the sadness Into joy. Let us make our Christmas present to our clnss, our long forgotten class fee. Then it will be all's well that ends well. E.
