Page Sixteen There's a very slim fellow namecl lra, He's liable to starve and expirer, But he hopes for the best As he loosen his vest, And trys not so much to perspirer. There's a lady from Bellflower town, She's worthy a bright jewelled crown, She goes on her way With little to say And she brought to a ham some renown. Then there's long, lean and hand- some young Ray, Reifsnyclefs the boy that l say, He's strong on the pie, You neecln't ask why Because I would rather not say. There's Marion, a fuzzy haired bru- nette, She's known as a quiet coquette, ln her large twinkling eyes, There's a message that lies Which the other sex cannot forget

There's another from Watts, that Grace Stead, She's one of the Senior's high bred, She says very little Quite non-committal, Not because she lacks brains in her head. There's a spectacled lad named Lockhart, He's the kind we all class as smart, He knows about bugs, Not much about hugs, Still l believe this young man does his part. To Verna l give loudest praise For her sensible, intelligent ways, She never decoys Any innocent boys With her smiles that her face now conveys. There's a busy young person you know Seems jack of all trades as they gov He's boss of the teams, He prints by the reams, lt's his studies where Edgar is slow. Page Fifteen

There's a chunky young lassie named Cox, She often wears loud colored smocks, She can talk like a charm But she never does harm Even the many a tale she concocts. Ohl for a few more like Cooke, He's never been known to provoke The ire of a teacher Or lacly or preacher, He stancls like an unperturbecl oak. There's a lassie whose name does not rime, But we must not neglect her this time, lf school began at 9:08, She still would come late, But Emily will stop it ometime. There's a smart little fellow named Ray, As a talker he makes a display, ln debates he is there From his feet to his hair, His arguments Hay as they sway. Page Swmztvfu
