YESTERDAY, TO-DAY AND TOMORROW
At night I used to go to bed, and cover up
my weary head, and saw wood by the cord.
And dream my paltry stack of yens had
doubled and increased by tens, till I could
buy a Ford. But now it's quite the other
way. I don't have time to hit the hay.
There is no rest for me. My cerebellum's
cadly racked, medella oblongata cracked,
exams are here you see. But even that will
pass away and vanish too, like yesterday.
You will not hear me weep when I can crawl
into my nest and soak up fifty barrels of
rest and forty tons of sleep.
Doc. McM. (using high power microscope)—"I have one in the field now Father."
Biology Lab. Instructor—"A microbe?"
Doc—"Yes, Father."
B. L. I.—"What do you observe?"
Doc.—"He is covered with fleas."
p When the Senior Academics do not like
the Ump's decision they yell:
Robberum! Robberum! Soakum! Ullm Caput Osseum, Credite Mihi! Magnum Chee-
sum, caput rotundum, tricidetur.
Al Cone brags about the steep hills around
Villa Nova, but Flattery says that the hills
out back of Malloy's home are so steep that
they have to shoe the goats to keep them
from sliding into the canyons.
Tom—"Where are the notes that you have
written on this game?"
Bob—"In my hat."
Tom—"O, I see, News in a nut shell."
Smith—"It will take 5000 head of cattle
to supply our new army with shoes."
Brown—"It is wonderful what cattle can
be trained to do."
Chemical equation. (Probably known to
the Egyptians)
K9 turpentine—Hot dog.
