She attended District No. 15 and after entering the Fairmont High School became a member of the Girls’ Glee Club and Normal Training Class.

A is for Alice who has a taste for art, Tho’ not by intention broke many a heart, A story book has for her fascination, Which has often led to severe reprehension. B is for Bessie of auburn hair. Whose voice like a bird soars up in tin air, And Bessie doth answer, when asked if she’s cold “For shame. Sir, how dare you be so bold (’ is for Charles, Bobby, our little man, Ife plays base and basket hall when he can. A child of purpose, a man of size. You can tell he means it, by the look of his eyes. 1) is for David, or Wells or Steve, (VI him one or the other he’d just as leave. A basket ball forward, who runs up the score. And goes to see Ollie, (six nights out of four.) E stands for really THE man of the class. For Eddie the Irishman who goes to mass. He’s trying to reform they say of late. That is you know, not to prevaricate. Fern is the brunette, the belle of the grade. Do as you will she's not afraid. She wins them all with her alto voice, For from them all she has her choice.
