The Blue and Gold - 1917 yearbook cover for Linden Lake High School
Scanned text:
THE BLUE AND GOLD. '17. all sides. I jumped again, and held my breath. Wierd green lights began to come out of the woods. In a few minutes. when my eyes became accustomed to the lights I saw twelve witches sitting around an iron pot about which darted green flames. Then I heard a high, squeaky voice ask. "What have You decided about the fate of the 'Class of Nineteen Twenty of the Lake Linden High School?'" Another ghostly voice answered. "We have decided that as the graduating of the present freshman class of the Lake Linden High School will be the three hundredth anniversary of the landing of the Pilgrims, their class will be a record class in the high school. We will guard every member and give them all happiness and prosperity. Finally to the class as a whole, we will give the privilege of setting an example which other classes will follow." After this. they all rose and began to sing wierd songs and soon vanished into the woods. I then came out of the tent and reached home without any injuries. I did not mind the terror of the night then, for as I am a freshman. I knew I would be safe. LURENE BURGAN. "FRESHIE." The shades of morn were lifting fast. As down the street there quickly passed A little Freshie looking nice. Who plainly wore a strange device. "Greeney." Tie hustled through town at quite a rate, Swung around the corner, slid through the gate, Opened the door, and doffed his hat And brushed his feet upon the mat. "Greeney." He climbed the steps with lots of pride, Looked in the room, his girl lie snied. He entered then with his head in the air, He looked for the teacher. but she wasn't there. "Greeney." He chose a seat with lots of care. Took out his comb and smoothed his hair. One glance around then thought profound, The right seat yet he had not found. "Greeney." With clamorous noise, the bell did ring, The pupils all began to sin-- And Mary Jane with eyes so blue. Sang of her hero bold and true. "Greeney." When her he spied. her glance she moved In sternest looks his frown reproved. And as a bird shut in a cage She glanced at him with silent rage. "Greeney." Poor Freshie. when she didn't smile Just wished to be alone awhile Then he could cry to his heart's content For his spirits and heart were sorely spent. "Greeney.". Adventures of Two Boys. (By a Latin student.) "Country puer veniebat to town. Stepped on a banana peel, sidehat down, When he got up iratus est. Et dicebat. "banana peels stint a pest." City puer went to vicies.—(Nor' Easter.) Freshmen : What is an examination? Wise Senior : An examination is a process of elimination. In the Future. Miss McElhinney: (in new High School, in 1920)—We do all the cooking in this department by electricity. Student : (in the lunch room.)— Then. will you take this egg out and give it another shock? Insurance Doctor :—Any insanity in your family? Cholly:—Only-aw - the pater-thinks he's the head of the house.—Boston Globe.
