Senior Teacher Training Class Prophecy iWff25l:5xNK A Visit to Grandpa's I went to visit my grandpa, Who lives in the distant West. I'l1 try to tell you a part of it, And you can guess the rest. Grandpa had sent me away to school, For an education to get, And during that time I'd made many friends, Since many girls and boys I'd met. His home was a prosperous city, Where many young people go To have success in their business, Or get what grandpa calls dough . Emma D. Steele, Lucille Jordan, And too, there was Ella Mae Rice, I didn't see very much of them, But I heard of them once or twice. They were all teaching in public schools In a town not far away. Now, grandpa tells me truthfully That he sees them every day. When he told me of a French tutor, This was enough to amaze, For this was a private tutorship To the honor of Baby Ruth Hayes. Patti Comer and Bertha Croom, Were also teaching schools. Fannie Mae Barnes, grandpa knew her She was using her well-sharpened to, Grandpa told me a story, ols. About Mesdames Daniels and Sharp. It tickled even grandpa himself, And he was forced to laugh. Baby , those two old women, Like the one who lived in the shoe, Have so many children, They don't know what to do. They place some in the pantry, And others on the shelf, For what avail the plow or Or land or life, if freedom Page fifty-four But, don't let me forget Mrs. Anthony, Who has just as many herself. We passed by a beautiful store one day, Grandpa wouldn't let me stop, But I noticed a sign printed over the door, 1VIiss Louise Young's Style Shop . I learned since then that Miss Bennett With Miss Young was taking part. They both are dainty dresmakers, In the field of domestic art. In a music conservatory,. A Two blocks from grandpa's gate, Miss Christine Scott taught music That always suited her taste. Conolia Duffey was in Social Service work, So far as grandpa knew. I may be n1.istaken but I think he said That Lillie V. Thompson was too. There was a college that grandpa knew, It was not far away. Miss Charlie Jones was matron there And had gone to the school to stay. Grandpa had supper one night, For all my friends and meg And each of us was as happy As any one could be. Grandpa knew all my classmates, Some things he didn't tell, But he assured one thing and that thing was That all were doing well. All are rendering service To mankind where e'er they are I'm proud to see them making good Sighed my dear old aged grandpa. Just as he spoke those words to me And had not walked off the scene, I opened my eyes, and to my surprise, Grandpa's house and all was a dream. -Fannie Mae Hayes. sail, fail.-Emerson
