Classmates I know you have heard that old saying Ladies First : Well, I'll take it and use it for better or worse In speaking of classmates, the girls and the boys: The school for a playground and books for their toys. Some say they're as puzzling as great steamer's decks, These girls of our high school! They of the weak sexl Well, these that I speak of are well understood: There's Geneva in the corner trying hard to be good. Catherine is too good to argue or wheedleg And Fannie was vaccinated with a Victrola needle. And never to be forgotten is Laura the pest, She's always at ease if the joke's on the rest! In our athletics, Dixie's boss of them all 1 And Christine's the most beautiful in classroom or hall. There are Annabel and Doris-and Camille Chitwood, The ones that are beautiful, bringing joy to one's soul, Having boys for their slaves, well they're not on our roIl. But we've cooks, wives and waitresses in our class of today, Their success is assured. Yes, they're well on their way. And all of the others are pals good and true, If there's a doubt in your mind then the joke is on you. So, girls, think of schooldays, the happiness they hold, Of each pleasant memory, will they ever grow old? I will leave you this question to be answered by Time. Now think of the boys. May each thought be sublime! I will first take the president, who's best known as David, He's cultured, rejined, and so well behave'd,' Then Ewell Styers, our leader of cheers,' Tom Barkley, the hunter, and mostly of dears. There is Sally, the athlete, may his fame never perish, Bell's leadership in Math. we faithfully cherish. Haskell Lauderbach's known as a human loud speaker, Brewer's mind every day is growing weaker and weaker. And fresh from the country are Bradshaw and Tate, Six miles from the school house and have never been late. Always on time as is scheduled the train, At exactly eight-thirty enters Eugene McClain. Our next representative is Mr. Milton Magee, He dresses neater each day. Oh, who can she be? And Green is much brighter than his name suggests, And Marvin Reaves, our musician, much art does possess, The one with the very downcast homely face- But to mention his name would be an awful disgrace. We have parsons and lawyers and docs in our ranks, To these future high-ups we give many thanks And wish for our classmates the best things in life, May honor be their leader in their struggles and strife, And may as they trod along life's rugged way, Remember forever each happy school day. -Corliss Arnett.

'26-'27 Rolillell, 'l's-un. Among his love-inspiring qualities-he plays the piano sweetly. John L. Bradshaw ...... '26-'27 Rolflllen, Tenn. And still they gazed and still their wonder grew, - That one small head could carry all he knew. Chester Tate ..... . '26-'27 lfowlkes. Tenn. Even the most perfect of men make mis- fakes.
