'Who is the young 'Deb that we see with such a grown-up air? Nl. Alley's very grown-up way in one so young is rare. Our Hilda aims for college, she has no time to fool, She totes a heavy schedule and is Treasurer of the School. Nell Arnold' is so calm and tall when playing basketball, She merely reaches up and through the net the ball must fall. VVho is this maidennow we see? It must be Eune, but no! 'Tis Connie clad in borrowed silky but she must learn to sew. ' lt's just because you dream ahd dream and that is why you vex us.
