PLEASE REMOVE YOUR RUB-
BERS
Everyone should wear rubbers
these days--which isn t say~g that
everyone does. If you don t wear
rubbers you don~t ~eed ¢o read
any further., You may feel for us~
but you can t reach us.
After plowing through blocks
and blocks or as it sometimes
seems--miles and miles--of sticky,
gooy, grimy mud you finally drag
wearily up to the door of the
school house, only to be met at
m~id door by the Janitor, with his
ever-present co,n~and to take off
your rubbers! Ill wager that if the
janitor were ever awakened by
burglars in the house, he would
rise up in bed and say, "Take off
your rubbers, please!"
Gloomfly you wonder why the
Janitor doesn't stand at the boys'
entrance~boys are worse for mud
than girls anyway, but of course
you have to obey that command.
Or maybe, if you have luck, the
janitor will take off the offending
rubbers for you. In case your luck
is low, you scrape off inches of
mud until you find the zip. It
~icks and you have a terrible
time. Finally, after s long, hard
strug~e, the rubbers are off.
The-janitor very obligingly opens
the door for you. You stagger up
the stairs, carrying the mud-
encrusted rubbers gingerly in one
hand . You drop them on the
floor in the cloak hall and that is
where your revenge begins. The
]~nitor has to sweep it up.
When school is dismissed every-
one goes to the cloak room, puts
on her rubbers--boys don't wear
'era. and the mud, as much of it as
is still hanging on, comes off on
the way down stairs. All rubbers
are generally quite clean when
their wearers reach the door.
So much for the mud; but when
there is srg3w on the ground you
hear those same three little words,
"Remove your rubbers," you won-
der why, because the snow is un-
doubtedly cleaner than the floor
anyway. After thinking it over,
you decide that the janitor does-
n't want you to go around leaving
41can spots on the floor. Isn't
human nature funny?
After days and days of grey
skies overhead, and snow underfoot
comes a day when a rift appears in
the somber grey. Pupils perk up
and Joyfully sing "Here Comes the
SUn," but they forget that the sun
reduces the snow to mud--and
North Dakota mud is stickier and
gaoler and gummier than any
r~If-respecting mud has a right to
bet After all it doesn't make much
differenee---"Please remove your
tubbers"
Elizabeth Russell.
