Genesis of C. H. S, Twelve CRUX HI SKAN Adam was the first man ever invented, Lived all alone and never was contented, Made out of mud, in the days gone by, And hung upon a fence post for the sun to dry; Then came Eve, she had a little ladder. She shoved it up a tree and was tempted by an adder; She stole two apples they both ate one— Oh, my Lordie! Then the trouble was begun. Then came Cain he looked like his mother, He hunted all over to find himself a brother, Abel didn’t like it that there was another Starting according, he began to kick. So Cain shot Abel in the dome with a brick. Then came Noah, hunting in the dark, Found hammer and nails and built himself an ark, Led in the animals, two by two. The hippopotamus and the kangaroo; Then came an elephant, next a bear, Lastly the fowls, insects of the air. Forty days and forty nights it rained without a stop; The ark became rickety, then began to rock. Jonah went a fishing, he really hadn’t oughter, A whale coming up took him down in the water. After seven days the whale’s stomach got rank, And threw Mr. Jonah right out on the bank. Afterward Columbus, though he was dead broke, Discovered America, then he had to croak. Then came the Spaniards and blew up the Maine, So Uncle Sam knocked spots out of Spain. Then came the pioneers who through the wilderness strode, Cut down the forests and soon the fields are mowed. Wise men soon discovered what a country this might be, So Crooksville grew to be a village as you see; Not only of potteries but of a High School too Called C. H. S. with many students true, And this you’ll see if you are not a fool, Was the Genesis of Crooksville’s new High School. —BARBARA STINSON. Tribute to the Seniors The time has come, when you, the Seniors of ’27 are to graduate. Yours has, indeed, been an excellent class, an exemplary one for underclassmen. As you leave your Alma Mater to scatter to the ends of the earth to take up the silver threads of life—we wish that you may do it as well as womanly as gentlemanly as the work, the record of which you leave on the Tablets of Crooksville High School. THE JUNIOR CLASS OF ’28 By Margaret Guinsler.
