Mamie Masquelier ............ . . . .French Listen to me and I'll 'tell you About some teachers that I knew At Cecil Township High they stay From early morn 'till late all-day. Before I start to tell you this I'll say each name begins with Miss. They come from all parts of the land, To Cecil Township High most grand To tell us all of X and Y's, That we to fame may quickly riseg To me they're sure a funny bunch For when they go to eat their lunch, They sit around a .stove and talk About the things that they have wrought Upon their pupils, thru' the day And think it's funny, even gay. I've often wished that I could say Just what I thought of them some day, And now the time has come for this So if by chance I lurk or miss, Some good or evil quality Just call me up and tell me. Professor Moore altho not in The faculty, has always been A loyal worker you may guess For our school, C. T. H. S. McDonald. Pa. C. H. Kerr ............................ Music Fanny Street, McDonald, Pa. THE FACULTY 9. For years he's worked for it alone. And for the progress it has shown We owe to him a debt unpaid For his life and worthy aid. The best and biggest of teachers all You may surmise is Miss Kendallg Her hair is wavy golden brown And a smile on her face is always found. She always has a pleasant face, And for good looks she takes first place Among the teachers of the school And no exceptions to the rule. To us she is both good and kind, A better teacher you cannot find. She never gets real cross in class, Even though a note we pass, But by her nature good and true, Commands respect from me and you. She teaches many studies well, In history she likes to dwell The best of all and I can say In it she's very good each day. You doubtless know she's principal, And with knowledge nigh invincible She Hlls the place extremely well, Of a better one I could not tell.

THE FACULTY fContinuedl About Miss Kelso I'll next talk, Who makes us on the chalk line Walk, Unlike Miss Kendall, she is tall Altho I don't mean very small. Outside the classroom she is gay, But while in it she's strict alway. It is her aim and great desire To teach us all and thus inspire The pupils to do better work And not their lessons try to shirk. In 'this she conquers very well For in her class room I can tell Almost anything that's asked Except when she talks too fast. Sometimes we get a little gay, But when .she 'turns her eyes my way I try to sneak behind a lid Or in some way be wholly hid, So that she can not see my face And bring me to a sad disgrace. But when I have sense enough to say I think we're better off each day When not allowed to talk and play And waste our precious time away. Miss Kelso came to Cecil High To work for us and ours. To try To raise the standard of the school, To that above the average rule. To us she's been a loyal friend And her name we'll always all defend. Miss McBurney from Guntown near, Is now our science 'teacher dear. With light brown hair and two blue eyes And fair complexion you surmise, She quickly won the friend.ship of The many students who her love. At college, she in basket ball Starred in a degree that was not small. To-day she coaches every girl Just how a basket ball to hurlg Not only can she do this well, But in her class room she can tell Many things, which we've never heard While we sit still without a word. Sometimes we make a little noise, Then she quietly tells we boys To get to work and stop that fuss Or the matter with us she'll have to discuss But she is so good to us all We 'truly wish for her next fall. In French Miss Masquelier Teaches us that language dear. I'm sure that you all know her wellg So of her merits I need not tell. In her quiet charming way She teaches all of us to say Such useful 'things as J 'aime vous Which of course means I love you. For Miss Masquelier I'll say There's not a one in school today Who's not her friend most dear and true And for her sake anything would do. Mr. Kerr for years gone by Has been a music teacher high. To all of us he is known so well That much of him I will not tell Without hi.s work I'm very sure The high school could not long endure. Only by his efforts great Did we an orchestra create. Of him the .school is justly proud, And long will ring the praises loud, For the time he gave to it And thus the school did benefit. Of all our teachers I've tried to tell Although it may not have been done well.
