THE TATLER 15 Myron Spazzarini Myron Spazzarini is a good debater, And also a regular girl hater. An orator he’ll some time be, Just you wait and then you’ll see. Elsie Steele Elsie Steele is a girl quite shy. But in gymnastics is very spry. She can beat them all in running, And in her gym clothes is just stun- ning. IMary Stinson Mary Stinson, neat and prim. Is bound to excel in gym. She is pleasant and studies hard. And gets all A’s and B’s on her card. Alice Swan Alice Swan will be a star And be famous, near and far. Then we’ll go to see her play And a high price surely pay. Anna Swiatowski Anna Swiatowski of 8C Is as slow as she can be. But for boys she does not care, And in her subjects — she is fair. Anna Tarasuercz Our Anna’s very bright, Yes, and quite jolly, too. And though you search thro all the school Girls like her you’ll find but few. Grace Terry Grace Terry is a little vamp. She vamps them by the score. Wouldn’t you think she’d get tired. But no — she vamps them all the more. Douglass Thompson Oh, Dougy, can you tell us why Your coloring is so very high? Tell the girls just what you use. Now, Dougy — don’t refuse. Stanley Trackimovicz There is a boy in 8B And his name is Stanley T. His hair is of a reddish hue. And with foolish questions he’ll beat you. Ralph Van Nostrand Ralph Van Nostrand is a funny chap. He makes maple sugar out of sap. He’s fair in all classes And in most subjects he passes. Catherine Wialy And then comes our Catherine, Who’s as quiet as a lamb. She never makes a bit of noise. But just the same she can. vStasia Woronecki Stasia is a cheerful lass. Who never has the blues; She has a smile for everyone. Now isn’t that quite true? Class Will By Stanley Baj and Horace Mac- Govern Know all men by these presents, that we, the graduates of the A. D.
