16 THE ENFIELD ECHO He thinks he is the only one— No matter how large the crowd. We’ve a Mary in our class With great large baby eyes; And would you believe it? Our Mary is quite wise. Now we have Joe August One of the good-looking boys; He always is so good-natured; We hope he’ll have many joys. Naomi is a worker In school, at play, at home; She’ll never be a shirker No matter where she’ll roam. Why, Pilgrim, here you are You, bad mischievous boy! We’ve never seen you When you were without a toy. There came a girl from Somers To join our Senior class; L-he’s one of the “up and comers:” Miss McCann is the name of the lass. Now who is next but Eunice A girl of many moods; She advocates that Mellon’s Is the best of student foods. Dorothy Baumes is so quiet I almost let her pass, Rut we surely all agree We need her in our class. Francis Connell is so shy He seems like a quiet child. But in a place called Somersville They say he’s not so mild. Cecelia likes baseball games As all of us well know; But is there some other attraction That makes her want to go? We know that Klemens Kalwa Will leave Enfield with a tear, But why not take a P. G. course, To be with her next year? A second Sara Teasdale Among our ranks is seen, And Ethel has never written Anything that was mean. Liucci is quite snappy, And is really a very nice “beau;” That’s what someone tells us And that someone ought to know. We have a person in our midst Claire Andre is her name; It she continues to sing so well We’re sure she’ll win great fame. Slow motion Doug Should be his name; From walking fast He’ll ne’er be lame. Next in line is Kingy A performer of great feats; What could we do without him— Since he wins at all our meets. Claire is quite attractive With her pretty smile, And we know there’s someone Whom she tries to beguile. “Shummy” has a little Ford Which rambles near and far, And after all is said and done It’s sure a “Rattling” good car. Next comes Helen Blonka Who is always full of pep, And when it comes to dancing She never misses a step. For filling the place of President No other can beat Lepore; We wonder when it comes to girls— If he holds as high a score. Now when it comes to talking Caroline Comstock does shine, For this little Miss from Somers Certainly has some line. Virginia is very popular And as cute as she can be, Pm sure the boys in Enfield High Will all agree with me. Of all our anti-prohibitionists Bonelli takes the lead; Just put him on a soap box For that is all he needs. Miss Welch is quite a talker On all subjects, it is said, But we’re quite sure that no one Will be by her misled. Javorski and his charming looks Deserve our special mention; No matter where our Francis goes The girls pay him attention.

THE ENFIELD ECHO 15 centrate all his time on giving the city earthquake protection. Collins—The other day I looked in the “American Magazine” and came across an advei'tisement by Joseph Novak, who was subjecting himself to the grilling work of an undertaker. The advertisement read “Our spe- cialty, school teachers, principals, and superintendents.” Claire—What do you think of our Ranch Woman, Anna Labutis? She is taming bucking bronchos on her ranch in Colorado. Ethel—Anna Welch is now practis- ing dentistry in Gum City, Idaho. Be- cause of her cheerful disposition she finds she can dispense with the use of laughing gas. Jordt—These people’s ears surely should be burning now, after all this discussion! Collins—Well, it’s certainly hot enough here. Jordt—I tell you. What do you say we take a spin in my plane over the Sound and New York City, to get the breeze? Ethel—Are you sure there is room for all of us? Jordt—Most certainly is. It will hold six as big as you. Claire—That’s great! Come on, everybody, let’s go! CLASS JINGLES (By Doris Leger and Joseph August) We’ve attempted to write a jingle About each one in class, But if you criticize too much— We’re sure they’ll never pass. First in line is Matty Who works in a grocery store; We certainly need not wonder Why girls go there by the score. Miss Phelps does her homework As all good girls should, And that’s the reason why— Her marks are so very good. Edwin is a farmer boy With a willing disposition; He performs ’most any task To show he’s full of ambition. She isn’t tall; she isn’t stout; She surely is “petite;” I am sui’e that you’ll agree— Welle is very sweet. Albert is so very quiet That I almost passed him over: When e’er you see a group of girls You’ll never see Albert hover. Evelyn does her lessons well Every single day, And when called upon in class Answers without delay. Glazier is a dapper lad, Country born and bred; He’s the light of Hazardville, So we have heard it said. Miss Stinson is quite ambitious; In class she takes the cup As she rattles off her answers Like a phonograph wound up. Billy Hughes is a great musician; He plays with all his zeal; That’s why our school orchestra Has so much “sex”-appeal. Ethlyn is charming— We’ll all admit, With her laughing brown eyes Which bespeak keen wit. Oh Wallace is a tiny lad Who hails from a nearby ville; He drives a great big car To give the girls a thrill. Raymond comes from Warehouse Point; He is our curly head: We wonder if it’s blushes That make his cheeks so red. Florence comes from Wevmouth A place not far from school, And she’s the type of girl Who never breaks a rule. Everyone knows Philip; He really is very proud;

THE ENFIELD ECHO 17 Miss Raffia comes from Wallop, But that doesn’t cramp her style; That girl sure knows her dancing And Oh, Boy! What a smile! To talk to all the girlies Is to Bielitz a treat. And when he starts his sheiking He has John Gilbert beat. Next comes Joe Naughton My! how he curves the ball; Of all the great pitchers We like him best of all. “Track’s” hair is red; His eyes are blue; He’s chuck-full of fun, And mischief, too. She’s tall and slim. And very sweet; It’s Miss Gaudette— We’d like you to meet Chester is ambitious— Always with a book; And to the girlies He never gives a look. Our stately “Cappo”— Of footfall fame. Crashes the line And makes a gain. A bewitching smile— A sparkling eye— Angela uses To make the blues fly. Boris likes her office work: At this she spends her day: when she get a steady job. We’re sure shell earn her pay. A business manager was needed. And who do ymi think wj»c found? We thought this cry unheeded TiE Gourlie «came around. We have two “red heads” in our class Just now well sneak of one: His name is Bob: be’ tall and slim And always full of fun. Francis doesn’t waste his time As do the .other boys: He labors on Ms father's farm But dreams off other , oys. Who is Charlotte’s hero? Guess him if you will; We think it’s Uncle Wiggly For she seldom does sit still. Hark! what’s that noise resounding Which rises to a din; Why it’s only Emil Bayek Blowing on his “tin”! We’re never sad when Helen’s near Her laugh is so contagious; We’re sure she shouldn’t fool so much For it’s most outrageous. Anna, Bertha, and Mildred Are trying to get thin; Each shows her talent rare, Before Miss Ryan in the gym. Stuart is our class actor And also our class clown; We all are very sure He’ll win great renown. Elsie’s very quiet And never talks in school; She tries very hard To keep the golden rule. William Thomnson is a modest lad Within the bounds of school: But should vou meet him elsewhere, You’d find he likes to fool. A «nrl that we know— By the name of Louise Is always most cheerful And not hard to please. Did you ever see a fashion plate Or an actor on a rover We have one to fill the b»ll— It’s Pryce, our movie lover. Eunice is our Prima Donne: She really sings ouite well— And after each performance We think that she’s quite “swell ” Now Hesley isn’t slim— Just a little stout; There’s not a thing in Histon,’ That he doesn’t know about. This estimate of Margeret Knight We offer without shrinking; It is that we deplore the time. She’s known to waste in prinking. (Continued on ‘Pag.e $9)
