’Twas a Pie Dr<am, a Pie Dream.
I th o’t one morn,
One lovely morn,
One morn full o f desire.
I ’d skip a class,
A Latin class,
A class chuck full o f ire.
I was strolling in the m eadows
A th o’t o f depth I ’d scoff
W hen—O ye sainted bottles—
There stood that Latin Prop.
I th o ’t I had a “pony”
A “p ony” dark and browu,
A "pony” m ighty frisky,
For Anabasis, and sound.
One day I tore a le a f out
And stuck it in my book
And went a tearing up to class
To win by any hook.
But when the class was over
I saw a girl so fair,
A girl with sm iling I f s and eyes.
A girl with golden hair.
I made a dash to catch her
And win her by a look
Left on the seat behind me
That thrice accursed book.
I th o ’t one night,
One starless night.
One night without a n oon,
I w as pruning up the grape vines
And filled my p ckets soon.
When I felt a grasp upon me
A grasp that made me reel,
A grasp with no relaxing,
A grasp o f wroughtest steel.
Then a bright tight broke upon rue
And I heaved a happy sigh
For that night be*ore I weut to bed
I had eaten a whole mince pie

Surprises, then, are the order of th e
day, and the m ore we have of them at
football the m errier. A nother chief
point to note is the satisfactory, th e
norm al level on which the sport is now
settled. Football is no longer th e
gladitorial com bat of a few years ago. It
is now a robust Am erican gam e, where
brain is m ore than braw n, and skill a
b e tter th in g than brute muscle.
