The Cowan Mirror THE SENIORS They are nearing the end of their high school journey Which begun in the year of twenty-three. We hope they will take life seriously And become stationed in a certain degree. There is William, who is brilliant and witty And takes Latin and climbs to the top. Or there is the dark horse” called Garland Who thinks English is where he should stop. Austin and Recsy in a game of basketball Can show you a thing or two — For with these and the others You’ll find makes a first-rate crew. Dorothy and Ruth, two blondes of the class, Have gained as much as they possibly can. With William and Perry comes the fun of the class Who have stamped through high school and managed to pass. Marshall and Tony,” you’ll have to say, Strutted their stuff” in the Junior Play. Next comes Pauline and Bernetha, calm or shrill The Seniors are glad they are with them still. Still there are others who have come down the line And will be with them at graduation time. Cleo and Lena, giggling and having fun, Then Robert and Eugene, the best of chums. There are two more boys, as different as can be — Walter and Kernsy, as you can see. Al so Robert Reynolds, who is not an outcast, For he still invades Yorktown as he did in the past. Ruth and Clarinda, of high school fames, Have won for themselves glorious names. There is Beulah, whose heart is large. And many friends are in her charge. And also Reba, whose very thoughts and life Would make some man a handsome wife. These are the Seniors — Mr. Kirp is sponsor; It’s hard to tell just where they’ll wander. They hate to leave old C. H. S., But other seniors must take their place. And so they say farewell To the dear old school they love so well. (Now, Seniors, don’t be insulted or be misled. For the person who wrote this was off in the head.)
