EXTRACTED TEXT FROM PAGE:



Carmen,

A D SOPHOGKAPHEN.

An old man gazed on a Sophograph Of the Class of Ninety-Four, He read the old-jokes and the mouldy puns, And then he fell dead on the floor. The coroner's jury was held that night, A thing- very strange, but true; And the witnesses there all testified That the Sophograph's fate was due.

CHORUS:

The ILLIO will show you, lad, The kind of a book we can write Without losing any sleep at all. Or staying up late at night. It tells you of a class, lad, A class that is good and true, Where each one has a heart, lad, n Like the "Two Little Girls in Blue.

Sophograph Sophograph poor, Ninety-four's was poorer L us, too: boy Had Ninety-five's interest at heart, Proposed to change to the ILLIO, And with the Sophograph part.
