APRIL FOOL "ie every year comes the day n we are all reminded that we are so important to the world as we Id like to imagine. "All Fools' " was the expression first used the beginning of the fourth month. 'e are all of us more or less fools . certain ways. How ambitious e we when we were children! A of five wants to be a policeman; a of seven thinks the cowboy the ,1; when he is twelve he would to be a locomotive engineer. nd when he grows up, he looks k and sees how foolish were these ams. The dream of the future is out to be the common-place of present, and the disillusion of the t. What are we after all but pup- , who are put here to play our lit- part and then made to leave the e forever! re are all of us fools, with foolish ams. Yet the dreams have their pose. It is better to have foolish ams than none at all. pril Fools' day makes us look It and see what fools we were. But t is better than looking back and Jg what greater fools we might e been. The Guillotine Under the Spreading Chestnut Tree (As Longfellow Might Have Written It Today) A cornfed maid a job once got Upon an August day, Right in a bloomin' blacksmith shop, Six-fifty was her pay. Like Thor she swung the iron on high, The anvil nearly burst, And 'cause her brawny arm was spry1 She soon acquired a thirst. She saw a barrel standing by And said, "That looks sublime, I'll drink the Huron river dry, One glass at a time." CHORUS In the shade of the old chestnut tree, The horse flies are bothering me, My brow's rather damp, There's soot in my lamp, It hurts like the dickens to see. But there's Joy in this H20, I am feeling my spirits grow, For it tastes mighty fine to this poor throat of mine, ,In the shade of the old chestnut tree. Then the boss came ambling 'round And saw the barrel dry He threw a stare and gulped for air And these words did he cry, "You're fired, you're fired. Go 'way and die. My bankroll now is thin, No wonder you were feeling dry, My barrel was of gin." Tears in her eyes then softly rose, Her bosomn heaved a sigh, And as she powdered up her nose She made this here reply: CHORUS "I may be fat and homely, sir, I also may be poor. But I am pure and honest, sir, Which you'll admit, I'm sure. I think that you're a mean old thing And may your life be curst, To think a guy would can a girl Because she had a thirst."

If we were given the right, he chances are we wouldn't care to ake It. In walking across the campus, we ometimes use the walks. Sometimes we don't. We like to cut across the rounds just because we ought not o. If there were walks where now here are but foot paths, we wouldn't ise them, but would find some other >lace to cross. Such is human nature. The University is going to spend thout $2,000 this year to improve the ampus. It is planned to make Mich- gan really beautiful. Lawns and shrubs and flowers will add much to he appearance of the campus. But there is no use trying to beatu- fy the grounds if students persist in valking 'on the grass. There are walks enough to take us wherever we are to go. We don't save any time by not using them. And we are only Harming the lawns by walking all, over them. Let's walk on the walks.
