1925 Cedrus Yearbook

Song THE ORANGE AND THE BLUE Altho Yale has always favored the violet's dark blue, And the noble sons of Harvard to the crimson rose are true, We will own the cedars slender, all honor be to you While Old Cedar stands defender of the Orange and the Blue. Thru the four long years of college, midst the scenes we love so well, As the mistic charms to knowledge we vainly seek to 'spel; Or we win athletic vict'ries on the court and gridiron too, Still we work for dear Old Cedar and the Orange and the Blue. When the cares of life o'ertake us, mingling fast our locks with gray, Should our dearest hopes betray us, false fortune fall away; We shall banish care and sadness as our thots return to you, And recall those days of gladness 'neath the Orange and the Blue. Adapted by Carl Smith Some Similes As tremulous as a flivver fender, As useless as a curry-comb in Detroit. As thin as a flapper's eyebrow, As off the subject as the title of a movie. As far away as near-beer. As varied as a church collection. Short lived as a popular song. —B. C. B. Dated Up "Won't you give me one kiss?" he begged. "No," she replied shyly. "I'm saving my kisses until the right man comes along." A boyish voice spoke up from under the sofa. "You mean that Wednesday-nights guy, don't you, Sis?" it asked. The School Board Sonny: "Say Pop, did they have a Board of Education in your day?" Pop: "Certainly, son. My father kept it in the woodshed."--Russell Weiss. Hard Labor Alice: "So Jack presented you with that splendid engagement ring?" Betty: "Presented nothing—I earned it!" Flaming Youth Her beau was rather bashful and maintained his position at the furthest end of the sofa. "Don't you think distance lends enchantment?" she asked coyly. "Certainly," replied the brilliant youth. "Any radio fan would rather pick up a European station than Schnectady." •
