Old J onesy, without a vocation, Is now looking out throu,Q,'h the bars. Brown Byerline is dead i11 N ew Jersey From smoking Dutch Master cigars. Now Sparks is a bold aviatrix, Glenn Fairbanks, her chauifeur so gay, Who tried aerial work 011 an QIIQIIIQ, ls under the sod now to stay. Carrol Soper has filled all expectations Some day a fine husband to be, And now is a wealthy oil magnate Of one Pigjgott Oil Company. Since IVaters has turned to inventing, Bill Davies' wares don't sell slow, For Russel invented a bottle That fits in the pocket, you know. Our Lola is over in Europe, A feminine boxer is she. And what do you think? Lillie Conlin Is Swickis sparing partner, I see. Now our Mamie IVall is a dancer. Behind the lights every night, IVith winsome Lenora, her partner, She frolics in costumes so bright. John Loftus, a criminal lawyer, Has wo11 every case he can find.

Twenty-two AQQQ IBETOHII y Both Mary and Phyllis Tabaka, Those two little maids so demure, llaving- vamped everything in this count! i Are going abroad 110W for sure. Troy Phillips is peddling bananas, Every block 211141 a half he will yell, But he needn't yell quite so loudly, You can hear him a mile just as well. Blanche Catlin, 'way out in Nevada Is teaching piano, she said Now the cattle are taking the country Because all the cowboys are dead. Oh! lVhere is Elizabeth Dobson? That answer there's nobody knows. The last I knew she was in Texas Exhibiting: hand painted hose. Joe Sloan was last seen in Miami I11 real estate business, I Qguess. Did he get the girl he was after? Yes! Beulah is his, I confess. Now Doris Lucille's in Chicago. An expert marceller is she, Folks say she's marcelled everybody, But she couldn't wave I-K-E. I go to the ball game tomorrow Hold Homer will surely be there. NVhile Grange is laid up with a Charley lle's playing left half-back for fair. Oh! XVillie is still just a farmer NVho gets up quite early each morn. Ile sits by the fireside till evening And speculates prices of corn. They've lost all account of Jim Nally He's gone like invisible ink. If facts all were kIl0Wll on the matter, They'd fi11d him in Racine, I think. Now what do you think of Glen Durbin Since he and Pauline ran away? I sure am surprised at the Rev'rend Hut preachers will do that they say. , 19fQ -

Twenty-four Now Lois is living in Atwood. Did she marry Carl? lVhy, of course. But he couldn't make bo.h their livings, So, lately she sued for divorce. Our Vivian Readings a model. Now don't you mistake what I said, For she doesn't pose for a painterg She's a model housewife instead. Both Ruby and Thelma are old maids, 'l'hey're making' their ways all alone. They say that all men are quite fickle, And they have a style all their ow11. XV hen Martha Lueile started paillting, We all thought her fortune was made, But she has lost all inspiration- lVayne Bauman has come to her aid. Our Ella's still wearing' the diamond She had in nineteen twenty-five. The reason that she isn't married Is because her man isntt alive. The last of our old High School comrades Is living in Hollywood now. Our Helen is coining a fortune She got i11 the movies somehow. I woke with a start from my dreaming Of all my friends' oleasures and woes: I let out a yell, not of gladness, M y Cigar was burning my 11ose. Raymond Sanders '26 1,926 W
