Some people say a teacher is made out of steel, Their mind can think, but their body can't feel, Iron and steel and hickory tea, Frowns and gripes from eight to three. You teach and teach and what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt. You pay your dues in this and that Then till payday comes Your billfold is flat. I was born one morning it was cloudy and cool. I picked up my register and headed for school. I wrote thirty names for the homeroom I keep - Nineteen talking, while eleven sleep. I can hardly get all the kids through the door, And if I don't watch it they'II send me some more I've taught for hours and my day is made But I still have 200 papers to grade. You teach and teach and what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt. I m coming Saint Peter but I can t stay' I ve gotta get back for the P.T.A. -Anonymous DID YOU RECOGNIZE THESE PEOPLE7 Mr Pate P Mrs Campbell Mrs Coffey Mrs Birchfield top Miss Cook Mr Bryant Mr Benefleld bottom Mrs Williamson Mrs Whittle Mrs Henderson o Mrs Blair Mr Gaskin Mr DeRusso bottom Mrs Hartley Mr Rich Mrs Erwin top Mrs Weeks Mrs Harris Mrs Scott bottom Mr Morrison Mr Lonergan Mr Mitchell top Mrs Stolle Miss Foote Mrs Dimick bottom Mrs Wright Mrs Turner Mrs King top Mrs Spangenberg Mrs Bain Mrs Elston bottom Mrs Walker P 19, .
