A., Next year when we have all gone away. Helen Sella leaves her mirth and ready wit To those of the Juniors who may lack it. While Claire leaves her great versatility In music, song, writing, and poetry To her twin sisters, that they may uphold Her name long after she's left our fold. Mary bequeaths her manner demure, To each of the Freshmen-they'll need it, I'm sure. To those who would fain be bright and fair, Grace Christ leaves the glint of her golden hair. Marg'ret Eisenmann leaves her small stature To Carmen Sussmuth, who'll cherish it, sure. i And to Hilda Lopez, who lacks it, they say, Inez gives her charming vivacity gay. Alice leaves her propensity for work To those who would that duty shirk. While Angela to the Team of Twentyfnine Bequeaths her basketball prowess so fine. Loretta gives her sweet and charming smile To some Juniors who'll find it well worth while. Irene wills her great dramatic perfection To the Juniors' efforts in that direction. Edith Haas her artistic sense doth will To those who may desire that skill. And Marion gives her serious air To each Junior who does not know what care Attends her entrance to the Senior year, And the trials she must undergo while here. May leaves her satire and her irony- She gives both of them up most willingly- To the one who'll exercise most skill In using them with no intent to kill. Delia Keating, her calm placidity That carried her through high school turbulency, And Helen Seuferling, her nonchalant air, They give to those who have most care. Last, but not least, we leave to all here, The things which have made our school life dearg And hope that, in time to come, each one May find as much joy here as we have done. HHBLEN OLIVA, '28 44
