1- . X'gfl 5g' PAGE 1 When you see Mr. Willer Coming down the hall, You may know he's going to ask you If you've practiced your music at all. When you see Mr. Davis, Coming on a run, Be sure, Dear Child, You throw away your gum. So here's to the teachers, Long may they live, Even as long As the lessons they give. ill? The Students' Psalm Professor Davis is my supervisor, I shall not want. He maketh me to study Algebra, He leadeth me on to greater things. Mr. Slayton restoreth my soul with Science, He leads me in the paths of hard Work, For his name's sake. BETH NEALE Yea! Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of my Citizenship class, I shall fear no failures, For Miss Raubinger is with me, Her brains and her teachings they comfort me. Miss Jennings prepareth English to keep me busy, She anionteth my head with long lessons, My knowledge runneth over. Sure-ly the goodness and mercy of my teachers, Shall follow me through all my school, And I shall remember them forever. KATHERINE LESLIE. 10 -fmgbrff . WY, new

Sidelights on the Faculty Listen, my children and you shall hear Of the wondrous tale of our faculty dear. Mr. Sexton tells stories and jokes, And takes great delight in the fun that he pokes. Mr. Slayton makes you think he's rough, But after all he's not so tough. It's wonderful how he can run a bluff, But perhaps we've already said enough. Mr. Neff, our sponsor dear, When we're in trouble he's always near, To him, the Seniors owe their success, He made us all do our very best. Miss Jennings leads us in the paths of knowledge, And prepares us for our life at college, She makes us study from time to time, But we all think she's mighty fine. Miss Whittenburg is so kind and sweet, From the top of her head to the soles of her feet, She seems like a mother to us all, And always answers any call. The fairy tales that Mr. Greer tells, Makes your imagination swell. He is principal in Junior High, Which we'll all remember forever and aye. The way Miss Myers works is a fright, And of course, she's always right, The way she types and takes dictation, Surely works on our imagination. Miss Johnson has a jaunty walk, And, Oh My! You should hear her talk. She has always been our friend, And will continue to be until the end. For all our knowledge in Physical Ed. We owe to Miss Preston's head. Miss Raubinger, another teacher whose name we often hear, We have learned to think of as quite a dear. She's always willing to do her part, And we have found that she really has a heart. Miss Bolton teaches us to sing a song, Whether it's short, or whether it's long. We are sure it will sound right, For she works with all her might. PAGE 109 J 1 J 'vi
