LIVE WIRE Page 5 FUTURE OF THE CLASS OF '23 WITCHES: Yea! Foretell! JESTER: (Waving a wand and taking a few fancy steps) Then hear thou me! A new Sarah Bernhardt has come upon the stage, And as a clever actress she’s the wonder of the age: Thus charming Marvel Berger entertains the world, And has quietly for use her sweet grace unfurled. As a congresswoman, Othelia Bach is at present to be found. She’s now as successful in passing the days’ unending round As when she went to high school, and as the brightest of us classed. Now she votes on many measures and sees them defeated or passed. That awful man-hater is living all alone On some distant isle behind a wall of stone, But we still have hopeful hopes that there’s one faithful heart Which may coax Grace Hessler from that lonely isle to part. If ever to Texas you should go, I’m sure you’ll want to see The Star State’s finest ranch, known as the Crown Bar Z It’s Walter Halvorson who bosses it with his bright and cherry smile And with horse and lariat has ridden full many a mile. June Madison is a her name—she’s the best hand, “I don’t want to get well,” say all the patients in all the land. In some large hospital, is a nurse with gentle there When they're under her kindly treatment and her gentle care. The East offers opportunities we do not have here in the west And many of our people it’s claimed, some of the very best— For instance take June Hull—none sweeter will be found. Is a model in New York and is becoming world renowned. To see an aviatrix is now a common sight Though it’s remarkable to see one make a lengthy flight. Dorothy Barnard makes real flights, her name is greatly known. Sometimes she makes a deviation and travels far as Rome. Everyone has gained distinction in some particular class And there’s one we must consider who before you now' will pass. He was always witty and jolly as most of you have seen, Now Idolph Milsten is editor of the Whizz Bang Magazine. If ever you go to the reservation, I’m sure you'll want to see A ranch where good times are had and always will be And the dainty little mistress of this place you’ll see Is just our sweet Lourinda of the class of '23. Go to the musicale and there you’ll hear Some compositions by Beatrice Van Ormer, our musician so dear. In Switzerland Alps her summers now she spends And if you wish to visit her, a hearty welcome she’ll extend. —J. M. 23.
