Peggy: Hello, everyone. Phil: Hi, Peggy. Kay: Hello, Peggy. Bob: Hullo. Kay: Well, I'll run along since you've come to manage these he-men. Bob: Me, too. Peggy: Oh, Bob, wait.

I'll get over it, but gee, it hurts. X5C'ell, here's your class. I hate History, and now I've got to listen to it for a whole period. Phil: Why you used to like it. I remember your saying- Bob: Qlixcitedlyj, Say, who is that stunning girl? . Day Dreams I wish we lived in days of old, When maids were fair, and knights were bold. I'd be a maid with golden hair, And you a prince, who'd dangers dare In some tall tower far from home To rescue me, a captive lone. I'd dream about you, one dark night And next day you'd ride into sight. When you looked, I'd wave my hand, And somehow you would understand. You'd kill the dragons at the door To set me free to sing once more. Then when we reached my father's land, You'd ask him for my fair white hand. Full gladly would he grant you this, And wish us happiness and bliss. We would be wed in splendid state. You'd find I made a lovely mate. Within a castle on a hill, With happiness our days we'd fill. I wish we lived in days of old, When maids were fair, and knights were bold. M. H omcb The REFLECTOR- rj- - ...'-21'-1 24
