McMinnville, Oregon 27 Ellen Michelbook’s not much larger than a rook, But a shy little maiden, withal, at whom we’re pleased to look. Lee Waugaman studies exceedingly hard, But, oh, ye gods! that awful “report card.” John, the elder, “Bob” the younger; thus the Mannings go; And each’s a “brick,” O Stephen, don't che know! Seein’ as how “Nig” Corpron knows the “game,” We guess he’ll wake some morn, with his name in the Hall of Fame. Carl Kohzelman’s got bushy hair and a soft voice; If he’d get rid of both of these, we’d all rejoice. Elvin Houck’s got everybody beaten a mile, For he’s always wearing a sublime, sweet smile. Alvin Stormer’s quiet and rather inoffensive; But since he’s got a girl, you can’t say “inexpensive.” Always wearing a cheerful grin, In all our hearts, La Versa lets the sunshine in. Lois Martin is a winning debutant, And she says to all the boys, “G’wan!” “G’wan!” (?) When Lyle gets mad, he acts sort o’ like a mule; And finds it hard to keep the Golden Rule.

26 THE LINCOLNIAN “Walt” Arthur, know, your monkey shines are all that we can bear; And on your head our wrath will fall, if thou dost not beware. I have a hunch that sooner or later a doctor will be that “Earnie” Bills; For already he’s an expert on makin’ “leetle” pills. On Maude Brixey’s cheek is a bewitching dimple; Why she is so bewitching, ’tis perfectly simple. In our Student Body meetings, Helen Cunningham doth write Lengthy notes of our proceedings on the pages fair and white. Our racy Richard Flynn with his long and bony shin, With track opponents knows just how to rub it in. Irene Hulett, thine endearing charms, in song, We fain would sing throughout the ages long. Esther’ll be a school ma’am, and her sist.ei ’ll form a truce With some nice young feller what’s got lots 'o spruce. Into the well of love fell Lyman; But naught can extricate this Simple Simon. The way that Mina Hickok rides a “bike,” Makes one think of “Motorcycle Mike.” We know that Rosina and Lydia study until they know it; For always in class these little cousins show it. The brains you have, Glen Martin, oh, dear! You got through school in half a year. Frank Sitton’s eyes are blue, his hair is like the sun, And he’s quite charming, is this little one. “You’re living too fast,” says I to Paul Whirry, But all he ever says is, “I should bibble.” Glen Stewart sits on a back seat in chemistry, And tests the teacher’s clemency. Papl Sitton made his debut in football this year, The way he played drove many an enemy to shed a tear.
