Each appear above according to letter, But by jingles, I’ll try to acquaint you better. Lee Agee is a fellow who’ll some day go far; His ability to do things is way above par. Tom Barker’s a kind, good-natured lad; You can tease and tease him, he never gets mad. Billy Barrow’s studious when he wants to be, As nice a lad as you ever will see. Lo ' s Eanes has a smile we all adore; She shines in the classroom or on the dance floor. Mamie Eanes is small, sweet, and gay; Into everyone’s heart, she makelher way. Ellen Earles’ red hair and smiles lead hearts astray, But the sign on her heart says, “Keep away”. Edwards Eanes’ jalopy is lots of fun, when and if he gets it to run. Mary Elliott, too, an auburn haired lass, Has always been a leader in our class. Helen Gregory’s an ace, we all agree, She’s funny and loveable as can be. Lois Grant, our blonde, who is witty and gay, Is very quick tempered we can all say. Edith Gravely is a faithful, loyal friend, We know her joys will never have an end. Randolph Jones, one seldom knows he’s near, But to someone in class, he’d like to be “dear”. Christine Lavender’s a girl, all loved dearly, That her future is bright, one sees clearly. Joseph Law’s not handsome; he doesn’t have riches, But his humor and wit just keep us in stitches. Madeline McGuire’s sense of humor is keen, And she always says just what she may mean. Varley Norton’s smile breaks down resistance, He gets what he wants without persistence. J. T. Richardson, funny man of the bunch, Clowns through classes, assemblies, and lunch. Belva Riddle likes to laugh and to joke, To lighten the burden of other folk. Mozelle Robertson’s a girl who’s nice as can be, She can tell enough jokes to make up for three. Anne Starling is well liked by all of us, She’s got what it takes and energy plus. Clair Still’s loyal and sincere, Always ready to bring good cheer. Rebecca Still’s never too serious and gay, She’s always ready for work and for play. Gladys Talbert’s a girl you’ll search long to find, Dignified, intelligent, gentle, and kind. Christine Wells, a girl we’re proud to have known, Good deeds and pleasantness among us she’s shown. Mollie Wilson has fun with plenty to spare, She goes through the day without a care. Frances Wyatt has smiles that melt hearts that are cold, And you’d never at all think that she could be bold. Page Twelve
