CAN YOU GUESS WHO? A man there was who like the girls An instructor sedate was he. He talked all day about beats (?) and whirls, And how plants and vegetables should be. One day two girls and he went out to farm, And work at it hard all day, And when the sun no longer did burn. They decided no longer to delay. Since both the girls bicycles rode And he, poor man, had none. One of the girls offered to increase her load, And ride him, just for fun. So they started out, with an unsteady gate, With the poor man badly scared. But they bumped along at terrific rate Till a ditch they both did share. The girl retained her seat with ease But he, poor man, fell down. Then the other girl his pains to ease, Offered to ride him to town. Again a start for town was made. And with very marked success For this time they no more falls had But hardships, nevertheless. Down Lincoln Way they wended their way Which was crowded with people many, For in the city there was a parade that day And for them no room was any. Of all the parade which was very pretty This scene was best of all. And all the people who were in the city Waited expectantly for a fall. Their expectations were soon fulfilled In a very alarming way When bicycle and both riders spilled Ker-plunk! in the middle of Lincoln Way. Then the poor man, badly fussed, Took to his heels in alarm, And he said, after brushing off the dust, That he would ride no more from the farm. M. J. S., ’18. Page fourteen

But there I did forget one person who always did concern us And that is Mr. Holmes, the superintendent of the furance. Sinca this poem first was written, Death's hand has had its part, Miss Pritchard’s life away was taken; Her life has lost its art. We’ll ne’er forget the place she held, Of honor and esteem. Among the students of LaPorte High, Her iile a gem did seem. EDGAR JOHNSON, ’IS. CASES. Oh. yes. Karl and Kit Haverly, To cut them out don’t try. Because they're thick as they can be. Just speaking ’tween you and I. When you come right down to cases. Just speaking ’tween you and I. There's many a case of good judgment, In our dear old La Porte High. Ever hear of Solly and Nora? They say for one the other would die, And perhaps they do love each other, Just speaking ’tween you and I. There’s Gorden and Doris, true lovers. And you know that the cards never lie. But they say they’ll get married. Just speaking ’tween you and I. Here’s another pair. Kloe and K. Guyer, And often you can hear them sigh. “1 wonder where my sweetheart is,” Just speaking ’tween you and I. That’s right, there’s Lauretta and Olie, They’re always together. O my. I’d not be surprised if they’d soon be engaged. Just speaking ’tween you and I. Yes. there’s Schenck and Maebelle H. It’s mushy as custard pie. But I think it is too good to last. Just speaking ’tween you and I. There’s Edgar and Jessie, of course. Tho’ Jessie is somewhat shy. But no doubt she will out grow that soon. Just speaking ’tween you and I. Take Dave and Eileen Chaney, No I won’t make you cry. But their case is realy pathetic. Just speaking ’tween you and I. And for Florence there is Millard. Who is always hovering nigh. Because he really likes his little girl. Just speaking ’tween you and I. Ask Leon about Mabel Jones, Ask Mildred E. about Garland Spry, Ask Don about Miss Buckell, Just speaking ’tween you and I. Ask Jocko about Katherine H. Ask Theo about his tie. Ask Howard about his Helen dear. Just speaking 'tween you and I. Ask Kenneth about Miss Florence G., They’ll get there by and by. Ask Mabelle W. about Sidney B., Just speaking ’tween you and I. Now I consider myself fortunate, Please don’t ask me why. No matter what the name. They are all the same. Just speaking ’tween you and I. A. H. ’18. If Walter Hahn was lost, would Marvel Hunt? If K. Haverly froze and became stiff, could Pete Bender? If Marian Leliter turned red, would Jessie Brown? If Eileen was to be taken prisoner, would David Lin-Guard? If the Seniors wished to fly another flag, would Don Me-Dare us? If Bob Swan had a book, would Theo Reeder? Pago thirteen
