Picnic Days Oh, sing a song of happy days, Of skies all clear and blue. Oh, sing of children's marching feet, As they pass gaily down the street. For picnic day is here again. Fair Kennard's heart beats high, On her boys and girls she looks with pride As into the busses they climb for a ride. The band starts playing a jolly tune, The children clap and shout, The caravan slowly moves away- Hurrah! We're off on our picnic day l Oh, sing a song of picnic days, And baskets filled with goodies, Of Ferris wheel and merry-go-round: Of scoota boats and rolicking sounds. When day is done and shadows fall, Our foot-steps homeward turning. With weary feet but a happy heart, From the Highlands we'll depart. -Corinne Thomas. 10

The Graduating Class of June 1936 The class of June, 1936, has nineteen graduates, eleven girls and eight boys. Perfect attendance for the term is recorded for the fol- lowing pupils: Arthur Brownlie, Eugene Potucek, Jeanne Ann Splackler, Lloyd Steinmeyer. Eugene Potucek entered Kennard School September, 1930, and has had five years of perfect attendance. This is the fourth consecutive year that he has been present every day. The Graduating Exercises will be held on Wednesday, June 10 at one-thirty p. m. in the school auditorium. The subject of the program will be Eugene Field, the children's poet. Since the birthplace of Eugene Field is now the property of the St. Louis Board of Education and as it is to be a shrine for St. Louis children this topic is of general interest.
