Page 14 The Monesse GIFTS. IF I could wave a fairy wand, And my ships were come back from the sea, I would give these gifts to the teachers Who are very dear to me. I’d give to Mr. Munson A model community school A library on Lincoln, And law, order and rule. A harmonious band I’d give to Mr. Liljedahl, A new test tube for Physics, And a noiseless study hall. I’d give to Mr. Liberty A cane with a golden head,! Some “specs” on a great, long chain, And a necktie made of red. A dove-cote made for two I’d give to Mr. Hungerford and his little wife, A farm well stocked with fishes So he’ll be happy all his life. I’d give to the coach our loyalty, Here’s to Mr. Moore! And a football eleven That would pile up every score. I’d give to Miss Coontz a shady nook By a rippling river’s side; A garden of flowers and a book, And a Kentucky horse to ride. I’d give to Miss Brown A thousand dollar puzzle prize; And in the reduction of binomial factors Let her students in mathematics be wise. “Variety is the spice of life.’’-—Edward Murry
