And yet, tho teacher’s very keen On pulling it out, It «s just a thought. But then, why not? The clay has boon vory trying since Jim and Tom Have asked him what compos os a bomb How whore do people got such ideas? Wot from Ruth, who novor sees The bad in things. ihid who arc the girls in the light brown hair? Why, it ' s Carol and Lucy sitting thoro. And .acre is Kathy, another of the class. She koops us supplied with plenty of laughs. Bov and Gail are quieted now; They arc sitting there with a wrinkled brow. And thoro are Prank and 3ob with their books. The teachers are giving them dirty looks. You seo, no ono has his homework done. Can you believe that? Not a single ono Not Dari, nor Judy, nor oven mo. Can you guess why? Bocauso, this is 10C. Tho bell has gone, there goes John, John Lyons, that is; Oohn Ford is close by. They pass the teacher, and hear a sigh. ■ Now I wonder why,! Perhaps they saw Enid coming last, The rest of tho class is at least a bit fast. Tho room is full, the roar is loud. The din. sounds like a third or-cloud. Then, all is quiet, tho toachcr is hero. It won t last for long, never foar. Why, Aaso has dropped her books and pen. But Leroy picks them up again. A spitball flios past the teacher ' s oar; Byron sent that one, never roar. Oh , sighs tho teacher, maybo next year.... Then, Shirlie dashes in, late to-day. Why couldn ' t she just stay away? Oh, well, bettor late than never. Well, did you over seo such a moss all over tho floor? Oh, Darlene, don’t spill the ink any more. Vinco and Lynne have loft - tho room. And there follows Henry with tho broom. A dotonticn is theirs; now, boys, don’t woop. You soo tho gym is theirs to swoop. As wo iw-vo provod, actions spook loudor than words. Harry is exceptionally glum to-day, I wendor what misfortuno passed his way. Shirley TJlch is hero to-day And she soems to ho very gay. Unlike Harry, Well, we are almost down the list. Now lot me see. Whom havo we missed? Why, wo have two Waynes, we romembor Wayne Gunning and Wayne Siofker. Now, there’s only ono moro. that’s Bobby Graham. The toachors- don’t scorn to want to slay him. At least there Is one good one in tho class.

There go Shirley, Francoiso, and Joan, They do their work without a groan. Ruth Anno and Marilyn aro best of frionds. And Janet and Verna, are two cute goms. Jim Brown, Jim Reeb, Jim Barnett—quite a list. But if one wore absent he would surely be missed. Dorothy, Judy, Pauline, and Beatrice, Moot of their homework they never miss.
