Yipity Yip, Yipity Ye, Mull aitaloo Bala Balee, Yipity Mini ga honey go Mine, We’re the class of 1909. Sixteen to one, sixteen to one, The sixteen Seniors are hi for fun, At least that’s what one teacher thinks. But our reputation as good fellows never sinks. 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.

26 THE FAIRMONTICE LL A. II is for Hubert the basket ball guard, In studying Cicero he always works hard, With lovely blue eyes, and light curly hair, He is known most certainly as “Hubert the Fair.” Irene is noted for her laugh. Which prepares you at least a half. Mein Gott in Himmel mein Herz is zer broehen. Du hist sehr schon mein liebchen, mein liebchen. J is for Joy of sweet disposition, Her place in class is of marked elevation. Roller skating is for her quite a fad. Hut if you tell her about it she somehow gets mad. K is for Kramer, the bashful lad. But always good humored, never mad. For chemistry experiments he has an aversion But greatly delights in a hunting excursion. L is for Lott, rightfully named Mable, Who has stood for that name since a little tot. She has a fancy for basket ball playing. And often times to soprano singing. M is for Mable the dignified and sedate, Tis not good for her complexion to stay out late. Recently she has studied Irish history. So that shamrock and blarney stones will not bo to he a mystery. N is fiery and stubborn Nell, What she’ll do next you never can tell. Be careful. I’ll warn you keep away, For Nell is a trifle crankv todav. t For Oliver the future has in store, A thousand honors, less or more, A tenor singer of the High School quartet, Just wait, he’ll be heard from yet. P stands for Putt, don’t forget her, The editor-in-chief as it were,
