19 THE BLACKBOARD 50 Ruth is rather quiet and gay, When she comes to school from day to day. Her likes are Home Ec. and a North Salem boy, But Mr. Broshar and government give her no joy. He's a guard on our ball team, And always seems to be on the beam. Bob's interest lies in the junior row And in a girl who never seems to grow. Marilyn usually has a lot to say, For this her grades always have to pay. When asked to do something she says, I can't, To everyone, but her own Buddie Grant. He's younger than the rest of the class But never doubts that he won't pass. With all his lessons he's sure to clickg Yes, he's the one, he's our Dick. With chin held high and rapid gait She rushes when she ISN'T late: Delores Newell procedes through room and hall, But stops to laugh at a friendly call. Atlas had a great reputation, but I'd like to have seen him try to carry a mattress upstairs.-Kin Hubbard. Humor is gravity concealed behind the jest. The lowest ebb is the turn of the tide.-Longfellow. It has been my experience that folks who have no vice have very few virtues.-Lincoln. Be not simply goodg be good for something. The Blue Bird carries the sky on his back. Write injuries in the dust, benefits in marble. He that falls in love with himself will have no rivals. Nonepreaches better than the ant, and she says nothing. Three may keep a secret if two of them are dead. Life is a great bundle of little things. The only man who never makes 9. mistake is one who never does any- thing.-Theodore Roosevelt.

THE BLACKBOARD CLASS POEM Our class's red head is quite a girl, The boys always keep her in a whirl. Just one look at Gene, and Deloris is in agtew, And has a temper like all red heads do. ' Juanita is different with her motherly way: She works hard at her studies every day. No one can ever call her bluff Unless it happens to be a Mr. Duff. Randall Burk is quite a lad, And the best president the senior class had. He likes to pester the girls and tease., He always says Thank you and sometimes Please John H. is our little blond boy. Who is his parents' pride and joy. Even tho small, he comes in handy, Has only one girl whose name is Sandy. Our county queen is the pride of the class, And everyone knows Marilyn's a very fine lass. She always looks so neat and trim, But as yet hasn't found that certain him. Bob Clampitt never has much to say When to our classes he comes each day. In taking tests he was never caught cheating, But could easily be caught, shall we say, speeding. She may be tall and rather lean, And appear to be a little mean, But no matter what she may do or say, She'll always be our Donna Mae. It's nothing to see Doyel on the fioor, Or giving someone a shove out the door, But in all ball games he's just dandy And rates first-class with a girl named Anndy. Pat Ohman's personality would reach to the sky. If she met you on the street, she'd never pass you by. She- always has a smile and plenty to say, Especially with her guy, Fireman Ray. s, Jim is the basketball star of the class. He studies hard so he will pass. He has never gotten into a fight, Unless with his girl Denny White.
