CARMEN. 



Cano carmen sixpence, a corbis plena 



rye, 

 Multas a\es atras percoctas in a pie; 

 Ubi pie apertus turn canit avium grex; 

 Nonne suavis cibus hoc locari ante 



rex ? 

 Fuissal rex in parlor, multo de nuni- 



mo tumens; 

 Regina in culina, bread and niel con- 



sumens; 

 Ancilla was in horto, dependens out 



her clothes. 

 Quum \enit parva carni 



est her nose. 

 Mater Anser's Melodies. 



kicking 



demon 



shruie 

 For dear Robbie and 

 cow. 

 But oh the heartaches! Oh the back- 

 aches 1 

 Shooting pains in every pore I 

 Oh the blisters that the sun makes, 



As it rakes me o'er and o'er! 

 Out upon those old bucolics! 

 Out upon the classic vine! 

 Naught I swear, but alcholics 



E'er inspired the muses nine! 

 Oh to end this fraud of living! 



I can! I will! Oh wretched sinner! 

 I'll drown myself and end all grieving 

 In the windmill tank , — after dinner.

GRAPE PICKING. 



Hit 



Could you see me now, Professor, 



Bending as before a shrine. 

 Gouging with a frantic bluster 



At this tangled mass of vine. 

 All the time "a makin' mashes" 



Of my only suit of clothes, 

 In my hngers cutting gashes, 



Burning blisters on my nose. 

 You, perhaps, would scarce re- 

 member, 



How once you taught that earthly 

 joys _ 

 Alone were found in classic labor. 



Plucking grapes like Virgil's boys 

 For, truly, Virgil owne.i a grapevine, 



Horace boasts a rusty plow. 

 And warm with love our fond hearts 



At the l^each during the wild years 

 long gone, 

 re grew no tree on mesa or 

 lawn 

 'Till they founded and built the S. D. 

 College, 

 And planted the umbrageous tree 

 of knowledge. 



Though some men dazzle like the 

 moon, 

 It is not best to make a guide of 

 them. 

 For, like the moon you may fmd 

 soon, 

 ^'ou've only seen one side of them. 

 Tid-Bifs. 



Every good Mussulman must Mec- 

 ca pilgrimage.
