24 C V M T I X Ivy Penny, the professor of English Was loved by bis pupils and a teacher distinguished, Ora Mae Galloway and Winsome Ware, Were teaching stenography and shorthand there. Miss Lottie Herring, librarian of the B. II. S. crowd Explained that no kissing in the library would be allowed. And we had a new force of janitors too— Who worked much better than the others used to, James Norman, the head one, was good as a rule, He tried to keep every thing clean in the school— And Maggie ue Harris, his dear little wife, Always tried to make happy his life. Tom Staple’s time was spent in sweeping the hall, lie kept the floors clean by hours of toil. It was the duty of dear little Minnie and Sara— To make the kitchen look like a mirror. Alas!—I awoke! Twas only a dream, A sweet one dear reader, I’ll assure you it seemed And I hope that again I may sometimes dream, Of the dear Senior Class of 1916. —E’oise W eks '16
