tast Will anfl totament J EEDS OF others all remind us We H9’s should leave behind us Gifts by friendship’s tie to bind us T o those who stay at Burbank School. Mamie Makie’s books and pen Should go to one who ' ll look at them, Instead of Tom or Dick or Ben. Hans Finzien wills his aeroplane To Axel cause he’s safe and sane. Theodora says, “Some dear old sock May have my locker that won’t un lock.” To little Patsy, who longs for height, Mary Helen wills shortness, “Just for spite.” Berry Jane thinks the most modest of maids Should inherit Theo’ s lovely long braids. Harry Sale leaves to the lower class His high class brains to help them pass. Carmen wills to one who may want the thing. Her little bass, with one good string. To you, June Peters, Margaret leaves her Strad, She plays sweet notes, but they come out bad. We bequeath to quiet studious boys Paul Hruska’s talent for making noise. And Elmer Frugoli’s diffident mien To some one always heard or seen. Lawrence Silva’s clever election signs, Ralph Baker’s ringing speechs, Eugene T ay lor’s large vocabulary, Stanley Lena’s questions to trap the unwary, Ernest Botefur’s badge, Richard Silva’s too. And Chief Corson’s star we leave to you. Nettie Mercurio’s beautiful singing, Rachel DelaRiva ' s unrivaled swing ' mg. Inez and Eleanor’s piano duets, Paul Fehr’s hat which “Fair” style sets. Barbara Glayzer’s Wizard “woes” (continued in next column) Millie’s strings which she lovingly bows. Dorothy Moran’s charming legacy Smiles and dimples — one, two, three. Best of all — May you swing along T o “Burbank Ever”, Phyllis Johnsons’ song. TREASURE ISLAND Just imagine a wonderful land Raised from under the Bay; If you can, you’ll understand The Fair that’s her today. It ' s a place of pools, fountains and lights. It’s wonderful dream come true; For there are gathered the strangest sights From here to Timbuctoo. One part of the Isle is a noisy place. There are strange shows and places of play; It’s the part of the fair where the freaks all are. And they call it the “Gayway.” The island is full of magic and joy, Of the triumphs and wonders of man; There’s something of interest for each girl and boy. Sec it as soon as you can ! — KatherineNy lander, H9 Between the portals of the setting sun Lies an Isle of rarest beauty where life has just begun. In the Bay of San Francisco, like a jewel of old The mystic tower of the setting sun Gleams like a bar of gold. ‘Tis here where the old grow younger And at night the stars on high Look down on a field of wonder From their throne up in the sky. The races of mankind pass in review. North and East, South and West Bid each other a hearty adieu. And so when the portals of sunset Close on this Isle so rare The memories of man and nature Will remain forever there. — Virginia Townsend, H9
