Sweet Kitty, tell me why a kiss
"Sweet Kitty, tell me why a kiss Is like creation?" Lost in mood Perplex, she could not answer this: Or—would not, if she could.

He grasped her hand, and nearer

"Because, 'tis made from nothing,

And—God knows its good."

Mary had a little lamb.
Mary had a little lamb,
It followed her to church.
And then stood around the door
Like an owl upon a perch.
Why don't the lamb come in
The watchful people cried.
Why Marry told the silly thing
To watch for her outside.
So you each, gentle maiden,
May one and all still find
Some mutton-head outside the
May one and all see
Some mutton-head outside the door,
and look inside.
If your liking for that kind.
"It is better to love than be loved!"
Some may be killed by kindness,
But cases of that sort,
Through the department's blindness,
Don't get in the report.

Full many a flower is born to blush unseen
And waste its sweetness on the desert air;
Full many a bathing suit, we also note
Appears so small you hardly know it's there.
Be quite sure, not leave behind us Letters that 'tis best to burn.
Lives of great men all remind us,
When to die it comes our turn.
Of all sad words of fountain pen,
The word is in the face a thick.
The sunset is the worst Pemberton.
Which has been written down, and then
is blotted by a gob of ink.
Mary had a little ewe
So playful and so cowl;
But when the heat reached 9.
It turned to mutton tallow.
She came up to the country But a week or so ago.
This city maid who ne'er had seen
The fields where wild flowers grow
And when she saw the cat-tails,
she said, "Oh well to go again!"
And when she saw the ear-tails,
She eried, "Oh, look, quick!"

McLEAN MAY REMAIN PERMANENTLY
MEAN MAY REMAIN PERMANENTLY.
There is some probability that Coach McLean may be a permanent member of Missouri's faculty. He is considering a proposition to remain at Missouri University throughout the year, as coach in the fall and as trainer throughout the year. This probability will not happen this year, but there is a probability of his returning after that and becoming a permanent member of the athletic faculty. This is a piece of good fortune that Missouri scarcely dares to hope for, but it would be an event that the friends of Missouri would hail with pleasure. McLean has proven himself an excellent coach and trainer and a man that will advance clean athletics at Missouri—M. S. U. Independent.
