«§ emdor Class Hisftovy Helen Pence A Senior Class History should always commence With a clause for its value; a toast to its sense. But the wonderful merit of old 1910 Is well-known without such a clause from my pen. As Freshmen we roamed through the halls of Fourth Ward; And dangled our feet o’er the banks of green sward. To see whether haply our feet might reach The freight trains that passed o'er Monona’s fair beach. In a Sophomore meeting with great noise and din We selected our motto and also our pin. No other class ever chose one so neat As that pin of ours which no one can beat. And as for our motto for terseness and sense There ne’er has been found one so void of pretense. For fitness what more could we ask than “Be Square”? For in all our encounter we’ve always been fair. Our great Junior Prom with its purple and gold Surpassed all the others so stale and so old. What bliss it was to dance past eleven. And not be forced to start just at seven. Our Senior year has been much frought with joys; Our basket-ball team and our foot-ball boys. Though Geometry finals and History tests, Have both made us feel that life has its jests. The roll of our Presidents inspires us with joy. Ruth Hayner, our first, gave way to a boy. Fair “Artie”, who followed, has left us, Alas! For the joys of Miss Richmond’s; and a Varsity class, Our Junior affairs Tom Coleman first led To be followed by Murray, who next became head. It was due to these boys that our Prom turned out well; Though oft in their plans, their high spirits fell. The first term this year brought Tom up once more, To rule us again as in days of yore. He was followed by Tormey who still holds the throne And whose policy is to let Cons alone. Here's a toast to the class of 1910! Here's to our wonderful class again! May M. H. S. claim us, and see us all famous As we grow to the status of women and men!

To H9SO The senior is the highest Of Highschool products known; He can tell you almost anything, From frogs to telephone. He has had geometry And history and such; He can translate pages In Latin, French, or Dutch. And when it comes to English, The Senior’s ‘there a mile,” For he can quote from Shakespeare Like a bill-clerk from a file. So he’s by far the greatest man In this good institution, And when he’s gone, the rest will think. There’s been an execution. By one of 1910.
