And Squires was a banker made; Cartels works in the sunshine, But Squires works in the shade. Link and Carnahan were musicians. And were struggling through this life. But Link, with a sudden change of mind. Chose Carnahan for his wife. Beugnot, C. Thomas and Teeters Are teachers in the A. H. S. We hope these pals continue. With many a great success.

He speaks to all the women That in their eyes have glee. Phelps went wandering through this world. But at last married McBride, And today this happy couple Are living side by side. G.
