SOME MISSES WbOSt namtS Wtrt misstd in tbt elass Rolls. C HE names of some of the Misses in our school were unavoidably missed was not meant, and we This mistreatment in making up the class rolls. to remedy the mistake. So we give their names take this opportunity below, and also a few of their characteristics, which we trust will not be amiss. A miss does not like to be spoken ill of, but we hope our object in this will not be misconstrued. Miss Ann Thropy is well known to. the girls and associates with some of them. She has a great antipathy for boys and is miserable in their presence. Miss B. Lief is known everywhere. She is most likely to be found where "Scrappy" is telling the boys of some of his wonderful mishaps. But even she is not as well known as Miss B. Havior. For this miss is mistress of the school. Among the bDYSshe is a mischief maker and is very popular, but she is despised and mistreated bv the Faculty. By them she is frequently mistaken for her cousin, Miss Conduct. She, too, is mischievous, but her motives are frequently misinterpreted and the teachers misled, thus misname her Rowdy Ism. She is often associated with Miss M. Ployment. You students of psychology, have you ever known Miss Conception? And you mathematicians, have you ever seen Miss Cal Q. Lation? I think you have. I am sure you who have studied book-keeping have often been worried by Miss N. Try. She worries you just as soon as you misplace or miscount figures. Some of these misses are rarely heard of in the school. Now it is only around the card table we hear of Miss Deal. One is very wicked and will steal. When a boy misses his "pony" he blames it upon Miss Appropriation. Miss Carry is fond of planning, and all plans, no matter what they may be, are bound to Miss Carry. And while Fortune favors only a few, his sister, Miss Fortune, looks favorably upon us all. Among other names we find Miss L. Laney, Miss D. Meanor and Miss 1. M. Prove. Finaly, at Christmas, we have the pleasure of seeing Miss L. Toe. We hope we have misquoted no names, nor by mischance misreported any- thing. Perhaps we have mispelled some names, but this will not cause anyone to mispronounce them. If there is a miss whose name we have missed, she must acquaint us with the fact, but do 110t misdirect the letter or we will miss being informed. 171
