A Christmas Gift to the Car=
negie Library,
The following, which explains it
self, deserves publication in The
Collegian because of its value per
se, its antique flavor, and its chaste
dignified prose.
‘‘ To all to Whom these presents
may come,” Greeting, Know ye that
it hath been on sundry occasions, my
fortune to be allowed the use of the
Library hammer, and that I have, as
a result, observed that the said ham
mer is a highly respectable but none
the less decrepit old tool, and Know
ye, that I, being a respecter of age,
was moven to take pity on the said
hammer and to suggest that it be
given a pension, and be laid to rest
in some suitable spot.
In pursuance of this object, it de
volves upon me to provide a sub
stitute for the disabled veteran and I
do so herewith.
Now, therefore, I, John H. Friz
zell, being in my right mind and of
good health, do hereby give and be
queath to the Carnegie Library, this
hammer, to have and to hold, till it,
too, be retired, or its heirs and as
signs forever.
Done at State College, Pa., this
twentieth day of December, A. D.
One thousand nine hundred and four.
God save the Commonwealth!”
The Library take this opportunity
to publicly express its thanks to Mr.
Frizzell, retiring in favor of one of
the Staff, Miss Becker, who voices
in choice verse what could not other
wise be given utterance:
“There was an instructor at State
Who a rumpus had tried co create;
He’d raise such a clamor '
In using our hammer
To tack up the list for debate.
So a library mademoiselle
Said unto Professor (?) Frizzell
“Now do stop your “knocking”
And put into our stocking
A hammer that suits you quite well. ’ ’
The day before Christmas vacation
To the Library comes a donation
’Tis a hammer so bright
From the man who’s “all right ”
And he’ll henceforth deserve com
mendation. ”
“Man wants but little here below, nor wants that little long,”
But when it comes to his wearing
apparel he’s pretty particular. The
apparel bearing the label of
is designed for particular men.
