10 THE TATLER Evelyn Field Evelyn Field of 8B Is very slow as you can see, Her words she seems to drawl But her motions are slowest of all. Dominick Frangiamore Dominick Frangiamore is very small, He wants to know how to grow tall. If he will eat yeast cakes every day. That will be the quickest way. Mildred Fuge Mildred Fuge of our class. Is such a pretty lass. She came to us from 8C Which was good work you’ll agree. William Galbraith William Galbraith is a musical lad, For in the orchestra he can be had. And in his studies as you shall see. He isn’t one to get a D.

Teresa Galimberti Teresa Galimberti of 8B Is a tall girl as you can see. And on her face she has a smile. Which reaches nearly a mile. Francis Garini Francis Garini likes the boys. And when with them is full of joys. But she’s very careful with whom she goes. For she eyes them from head to toes. Katherine Gardner Kitty Gardner is a nice girl. And her hair she does not curl.

We hear her in the lab, A sputtering, ’bout her English; Poor Sarah, “Ain’t it sad.” Irene Glista Irene Glista is a pretty lass But she is not the head of the class. She looks like a fancy dancer But in our class she does not answer. Clarence Gowdy Clarence lives oif on a farm. And gets up with the five o’clock alarm, He hurries to school each day. And never lingers along the way. Martha Greaves There is no bound to Martha’s joys When on the street she meets some boys. She sits and dreams in school all day. But outside of school she likes to play. Susie Grippo Susie Grippo of 8B Is a big girl as you can see. But in her English class She prays for the hour to quickly pass. Margaret Harris Latest styles are worn by Margaret Harris, Who reads a book named “Styles in Paris,” She comes to school with rouge and powder. When she recites she has to speak some louder. Margaret Higginbotham Margaret Higginbotham is very stout. In this statement we have no doubt. But in her subjects she is not so quick. Especially when it comes to Arith- metic. Edith Hue Edith keeps you guessing For she is very wise. There’s very little doing Escaping Edith’s eyes. Sally Hydack Sally Hydack of our class. Wonders if she really will pass But in her work does always dream. And needs someone to get up steam. Stella Jedziniak Stella Jedziniak is very smart. She studies and plays with all her heart.
