NVandering were my footsteps. And I knew not what to do, VVhen the sign of a fortune teller By chance came to my view. Thither drawn as my a magnet To this mystic seer I went, Thinking to forget my troubles In an hour of pleasure spent. I thought that to learn the fortune. Of my classmates would be fun, So for each he gave a prophesy As I named them one by one. Margaret is a seamstress, I A'dept in frills and lace, Elizabeth is a reader- In chautauqua holds high place. Merle a math professor stern, Quelling students with his eye, Lois is a baker's wife Unexcelled in baking pie. Emogene no longer single, Dale her victim as you know, Evelyn is a graceful dancer, In a well-known New York show. Illlllllllllllllll S Z 1' .T- -. -. 2 Z :S Illllllllllllll 1 - 1 2 Z -.
