Second in line sands Shelton, Our big Vice-President is she, Well known for her grace in dancing And we surely like her, dJn't we? Since Brown helped write this pocm Of her we little say, Except she has numerous crushes, And grows more romantic each day. Gibbons is a spunky girl, Our own true athleteg She leads us all in basketball, And thus we are seldom beat. Henderson joined us recently: She brags both high and low, But we gladly overlook it, Because we love her so. N-n-next comes M-M-Montgomery, Stammering is her gift: But our Expression teacher ls giving her a liftt. Marion is our Treasurer, Our Presidents right-hand man, Who seldom receives our dues, But does the best she can. Owens, the pepper box, ls the smallest of us all, But if you think you're smarter, Your pride will have a fall. And now l've come to Wallace, Who likes neither crimp nor curl, For she's the book-worm of our class, And a splendid all-'round girl.

V i 1 .. . c Sad But True 6 WWE? HE time oti my touching drama is twilight on a still, sultry summer evening. W Q-' The place is the most romantic spot in any country town-the cemetery. f U55 .. . .. . . Jj The dramatis personae consist of two people only-Laura, aged fourteen, very A9 QQEBQ sweet looking and a lover of anything approaching sentimentality. Vfalter, aged sixteen, possessing a decided ucowlick on top of his yellow head: a red, full face: more avoirdupois than he can comfortably carry: and, abo'.'e all, a sincere love for the ladies. As the scene opens these two are sitting on a Hat tomb, rather aimlessly Watching 'ilightnin' bugs. Laura seems impressed with the reverent silence of nature in this sacred spot. Wialter appears acutely impressed with the mosquitoes. Finally she speaks. Laura: Do you know, l believe if I came out here with some nice person real often, I could write most as good love stories as Florence Barclay. The air in the graveyard is jus' full of romance an'-i' Walter: And mosquitoes! I wish to thunder they'd leave me alone! Laura: Oh, you poor thing! Don't think about them. fcrows poetic., Think of the beautiful l'lowerets on yonder grave! Think of the lovely lightnin' bugs! Think of-.H Walter: Aw, l've got more important things to use my thinker on. fGrows very serious and embarrassed., Listen here, Laura-fdraws a deep breath and moves nearer,, you know I think a heap of you-'n, er-ah, l'd like to ask you something. Cl-hrills experienced by Laura, Will you tell me, hones'? Laura fquite softly and sympathetically,: Certainly I'Il tell you, Walter, dear. What is it? Walter flocking more uncomfortable than ever,: iiwell, then, l wish you would tell me where you think is a nice place to take a girl to-to-Cblushes furiously,-tell her you love her? Laura: fAppears to think and rejoices inwardly,: i'To tell you the truth, Walter, l jus' couldn't think of any place better than a flat tombstone in a graveyard. lt's so roman'ic! fsolves the problem of distance between them by subtraction and hangs her head-and waits., Deadly silence for a second or two. Finally, looking much relieved, Walter speaks: You sure have taken a load oft my mind. Laura, an' l'm ever so much obliged to you! l think you're right, an' I am a-comin' out here to this very spot, with your sister Mamie, tomorrow night 'n tell her what l have been a-tryin' to for two weeks! fCurtainj NANCY BATTLE, '21, 555' f Y f st 'XM' in iffii 1 .fc Tift F5227 i w 2 V QA Q! rpJLrQm.lQl :ABT VET , if i I , A gg ly-fs' V -W PM L , 1 1 v 4 FATESER GQES '1TC5DSElE'WTtHE UUELIRIBY7 GMLERQVGUIRLB ny r.h-emu:-N wmv at-s-.Q-.u 1. anne: M MF'V'U Page forty four
