SPRINGTIME ON THE FARM The sun is shining brightand warm. The cows are grazing in the field nearby, The sheep and lambs are frisking about the meadowg The gander is chasing the chicks around. Some ducks are in the pond behind the yard, The men are happy-singing at their work. All creatures are happy and bright and gay, Because at last the happy spring is here. -Hazel Dippel. MY GARDEN ' Alas, my lovely garden plot Is now a dismal wreck, A chicken flew into the lot I'd like to wring it's neck. But why should I thus rage and moan And do a lot of kickin', When Adam's garden, 'tis well known Was ruined by a chicken. -Walter Harweger. EVENING I love to sit at evening And watch the sun go down, With all it's beauteous colors, The gold, the pink, and brown. It seems to me that evening Is like a life that's gone. The end of life, the sunset That shows one day is done. -Nellie Sites. fortp-nine ..,5x-mmn:. .: - ' ' ' ' .... . . .. .. . ..

forty-eight 153 REVIEW T0 THE JUNIORS Blessings on thee, Junior Class, As from school the Seniors pass, You must fill their places now, Bear their burdens, take their vow. With your wisdom, wiser still, Aided by an iron will, With dignity upon your face, You may imitate their grace. From their hearts they wish you well. More than parting words can tell. fWith apologies to John Greenleaf Whittier.l -Roma Dryden. SPRING Why is everyone so gay? I musingly asked myself today. It seemed so strange for yesterday The world was cold and sad and gray. But now all things seemed diiferent quite For everyone within my sight Was happy and gay, with joy at its height Like birds that sing at morn's first light. I spied a child over there in a swing And I asked her the cause of this wonderful thing. As a robin above us began to sing She smiled and said, Don't you know 'Tis Spring. ' -Frances Whitaker. MUD PIE DAYS Down in a little back garden, Under a sunny sky. We made mud pies together- My little pal and I. Stained was the little pink apron, Dirty the little White hands, As we stirred, and mixed, and tasted And put the dough in pans. Why do I dream of that garden As the days go creeping by? Why am I longing, longing, For one of those little mud pies? Oh. for the little pink apron, Oh. for the tea set too, For the blessed faith of childhood When friendships seem more true. -Hulda Knake AUTOGRAPH ALBUMS Once a year it strikes us This epidemic great. And once again the albums Circle round at furious rate. The fountain pens have all gone dry, Our brains are most worn out. While, Oh, dear! What shall I write? Is the most prevailing doubt. The teachers really are beseiged, The Seniors' memories fail. And that is all there is to tell About this awful tale. ' -Mary Dryden.

The faculty meeting which was held today Proved a success in every way. All the people eager of learning Are to the Scroll and Eagle returning. The news staif re-organization took place this morning We hope the students will all take warning. Now our classes should surely work By the re-organization they can never shirk. The Freshmen were the honored guests tonight Out in the woods with car lights. The literary ofiicers from now on will seek Each one's ability to sing or speak. Our baseball men have gone to Buckley To see which team will be most lucky. The Roosevelt program was held today We hope another will soon be on its way. Buckley's baseball team again met us on the field And still showed us that they would not yield. OCTOBER Today a teachers' meeting at Champaign was held And the dismissal of school proved very well. Roberts' baseball team met us today And WE won in our own sweet way. The Senior Class program, even a little late Caused some laughter at any rate. Another victory to us came With Roberts lighting in the game. The Lincolnian program was very entertaining We hope some more will be there meaning. The Junior play was very successful And we hope to some it will prove helpful. The Sophomores did their best To entertain, with a program, all the rest. Our High School Annual is on its way And we hope the new staff will work and not play. Our first inside party was held in the gym And to us it has given a lot of vim. The audience laughed until they ached At the Roosevelt program which was nearly a fake. The Freshmen's entertainment was very enjoyable And we wish the next to be as employable. NOVEMBER Everyone was bright and gay Because the photographer came our way. The Senior program today was of a different kind Than all the others brought to mind. Our first basketball game was played tonight With East Lynn waging us in the fight. Wellington fought us in basketball game But Old Cissna won just the same. The Lincolnian program was a total success Our sincere patriotism was of the best. A half day vacation came our way Which brought to our minds Armistice day. The girls glee club of the school Practiced, as was the general rule.
