-C , a ,- Very early, indeed came George and Ray, Perhaps to study, perhaps to play. More often the latter, for everyone knew What Senior class officers liked to do. But 'twas almost time for the bell to ring, When Bob and Virgil and Benny came in, Followed by Johnnie, each with the air Cf having worn his textfbooks threadbare. The C'ville Gang were there on time, They were always considered a jolly nine. Winfred, Gault, Favre, Holmes were seen, Mildred, Blanche, Abigail, Eola, Kathleen The Lenzburg four were also on hand, And could always do what a teacher planned. Cscar and Albert with answers galore, But Luetta and Aurelia with many more. Then Betty and Margaret, Helen and Bess, Grades were plentiful as you might guess. But Frances and Florence, Lorene and Mabel, Too, could be given an efficiency label. The P, K. Society was a trio quite bright, 1Twas said they studied from morn till night. Kathryn, Adrian, and Charles to be specific, Were ever on hand with theories prolific. Arline, Norma, and Nelda were cousins three, Wherever you saw one there the others would be. Cargill, Rolland and August the Chemistry sharks, NVere there all right when it came to marks Sam and Andy, who entered midyear, Worked hard to please their teachers dear. Walter the artist, and the violinist Bob Glenn, Were lads upon whom one could always depend. Mildred and Beulah as typists excel, Though Elsie herself did equally well. Alice and Rose good things did cook, Better than she who wrote their textfboolf The fire burned low, the lady awoke, And smiling, thought of the '26 dreamffolk, True friends they have proved, neier a duty did shirk, God bless each one in his chosen work. -MILDRED ANDERSCN 24

Cz,-K--A , ,-R9 . p-1. 3 SUN AND SHADE A VISION An old lady slept by her fireside bright, Slept and dreamed far into the night, Of friends and kindred far and near, Who into her life had come to cheer. Then visions before her eyes arose: Classmates, boys and girls, all those Vfho together with her in the middle of May, Had marched to a goal called Commencement Day Rockwell, Adrian, Holmes, all three With Rolland and Raymond and Lee, Were fighting their way through thick and thin, As game after game they strove to win. Rafra! Rafra! Rafra! Rafra! On the side lines in every game, Louise, Abigail, Wanda, and West, Of basketball rooters the very best. Then school next morning at eight fortyfive, With more humming and drumming than bees in a While fiftyfthree students of genius most rare, Came very sedately up the north stair. 23 hive
